AWOL
Hello lovelies,
I know I’ve been AWOL for the past little while. Between school work, my teaching assistant job, packing up to move house, having two recent burlesque performances, and attempting to maintain somewhat of a social life, I’ve way too busy.
A source of supreme irony is that I am going to be writing a paper for one of classes about Tumblr. I’m thinking it may...
“Lyra listened enthralled to tales of the fen dwellers, of the great ghost dog...”
– Philip Pullman, Chapter 7 of The Golden Compass
I’ve always loved this one part about Lyra being a fire person. I definitely think of myself this way, i.e. marsh fire in my blood / witch oil in my soul.

Happy Equinox, lovelies!
Blessed Ostara, my gorgeous and lovely witchy followers!
I’m just on my way out the door to go celebrate with some of my favourite Pagans, and wanted to send good vibes to all of you.
Our corn dolly hags, which we made at Fall Equinox, are being burned tonight. After 6 months feeding our hags whiskey, I think it will be a pretty spectacular fire.

magical Etsy
I believe it is truly wonderful to be able to make/grow/wild harvest/forage your own magic supplies. It’s also lovely to buy local supplies when possible, thus helping to reduce your carbon footprint, and also supporting local businesses.

Too often, I am far too acutely aware of time. Am I using it wisely? Am I being efficient? Getting adequate work done?
Structuring my day so that I can fit in work, exercise, writing, chores, and maybe even the not-so-occasional episode of Dexter.
