You scored as II - The High Priestess. The High Priestess is a card of intuition, instinct and hidden knowledge. She knows all your secrets, you can hide nothing from her. Yet you will never know the secrets she herself protects.If well aspected in a Tarot spread, this card can indicate the use of intuition to solve problems; trust to your instincts. If badly aspected, it can mean suppression and ignoring of such instincts - following your head at the expense of your heart.

You know the funny thing about being an introvert?

You can cure cancer, discover how to turn lead into gold, find out who really built the pyramids, the truth of Atlantis, the mysteries of the rose and the arch, the secrets of the past...and the future...

And nobody else really knows...

pSG?

Watching with bated breath as all you pSG-ers are coming back---hope you had a good time, or at least the drama was kept to a min.

Hopefully we'll make it next year.

Anxiously awaiting all the dirt.

yawwwwnnnn. mmmmmm.

Time to wake up out of winter hibernation.

Hi eveyone, so, what'd I miss?

I have been quiet this winter, I haven't gone out to that many events or been out and social. A few reasons for that, and other musings....

Work:

If you didn't know, I work at a feline specialty veterinary clinic as a doctor's assistant, kinda like being a nurse, only for pussycats. Much of my energy has been spent here. We have lost a few employees over the course due to pregnancy, family illnesses, and general incompetence. The result is that the rest of us (myself included) have had to pickup the hours and the slack. Lots of eleven hour weekdays and weekends spent doing kennel care and picking up the disasters left over from the week.

Since we have only 1 part time vet technician right now (we usually have 2 full time and 1 part time), I have gotten the wonderful opportunity to learn and do lots of cool stuff that I otherwise would not be able to do.

Probably the coolest thing is learning how to collect blood samples. On a cat, you insert a needle into the jugular vein ideally. You get the best, most forceful flow, hence the quickest sample. You can collect from the veins in the legs as well, however sometimes the blood flow goes so slow, your sample clots in the syringe.

True magic: having your co-worker try to restrain a terrified or feral cat, hanging its legs over the edge of a treatment counter while you focus and syncronize your own mind and spirit with that of the animal, then insert a needle into a vein as small or smaller than a spaghetti noodle and hold it for the 10 seconds it takes to draw some of the animal's living vital life essence into an instrument in your own hand.

Of course the lesser magical work days end up coming home after being pooped on, peed on, or having to comb down a cat with ringworm.

Crafty stuff:

I got a loom this year and learned how to weave. Last year I learned how to spin wool into yarn with a drop spindle, so I am putting it all together and developing a medieval style textile mill in my living room. For me, it's cool in part because one of the foundations of rennaisance Italy was the textile production in the northern cities. Another way to connect with my ancestry in a way that is a bit different. However, heavy wool is not exactly the thing to work with as the spring warms up. Which leads to...

The Garden:

Ok, trying to plant the whole big garden this year. I have never tried anything quite this ambitious before. Of course I have all the witchy things planned. I have seeds for: belladonna, datura, monkshood, skullcap, etc. Flying ointment anyone? We'll see what I get to actually grow.

That is it for now,

signing off,

nanu, nanu.

It is nice to be home. Just sipping a glass of white wine and relaxing, listening to the greatest hits of the renaissance. I had a busy day-my work is currently understaffed so the rest of us bear the brunt of it all. Oh well, what can ya do.

Fat fat cat

Thu, 27 Oct 2005 16:47:49 GMT

I work at a feline veterinarian (if you didn't know) and yesterday I saw a cat who weighed in at 18 pounds 12 ounces. He is 15 years old and in good health, in for his checkup. You may think he is pretty chunky for a kitty...
...but in his record, a few years ago, his highest weight was 29 pounds and 13 ounces! Potroast kitten!

He must have went on the Subway diet. :P

Just thought I would share that with you all.

Post B-day...

Tue, 25 Oct 2005 15:01:21 GMT

I just had me birthday and it was quite good. My kitties got a great big tall cat tree from gramma & grampa, they are having a blast with it. I got a great custom, hand-made book of shadows from my honey that apparently was a conspiracy to get made by my closest friends (you know who you are). :)

Today I am off from work and debating what I am going to do. I am thinking about doing a little shopping, yeah, that's it, shopping!

I also have to plan the Samhain ritual that I am hosting this weekend. Hmm....

Went up North this weekend to visit the future inlaws, good trip. I had a good time. We ended up getting some furniture. Alana (my sig other) is as we speak putting the bookshelves in order. Yay!

Waiting for workman...

Thu, 13 Oct 2005 17:24:34 GMT

I am sitting here waiting for the workman to finish repairing the hole in my bedroom ceiling. Just sitting, drinking my coffee, can ya tell I'm thrilled? Oh well, at least it will be done.

I have been feeling very mellow and laid back recently. I am watching the fall come in and all the Halloween events starting up, but I am just totally not geared up this year. I think I am just bummed to see summer go, I wish it would be nice all year round.
