I think we have a ton of Pennyroyal around here (I don't know if I can find it though, or if it's "past it's prime") How would I use it, if I were to find it?

Is it that big a thing to worry about? I think it's kind of funny... I wonder if the fix won't cause more problems than the initial problem. (not that I don't like upgrades!)

Um...English? Please? LOL I worked a few hours this morning for want of something better to do, and because my boss asked me to. No big deal really. I'm actually feeling quite wonderful right now, and I am really starting to enjoy my job as well. Last night I got sick, just for about a half an hour, the weird thing was, when I was done being sick, all the stress was gone. It's like I *physically* purged all my emotional upset. not complaining though. Wish I could do that intentionally.

I've wanted to try something like this, but I can't find the recipes. I'm quite fond of barley myself.

Pertinax I believe the reason you have -5 messages is because someone is sneaking into your PM box at night and making off with them one by one...

I have talked to my mom about it and figured out that it's basically, the worst case of PMS in the history of...me. LOL So in a few days I should be fine. I'm feeling great now, despite it being 6 am.

My first two days of work have been tough. Yesterday was bad because I had practically no sleep for the two nights before that. Today went fairly well, and I am really starting to enjoy it...but I'm still hoping that I made the right choice, because I'm having "darker moments" of extreme doubt...which I really don't understand. I go from feeling like this job is the best thing that could have happened to me to feeling like I've had a bad feeling about it all along and I should have listened to myself and now I'm "stuck"... I did kind of want for this job *not* to work out so I could just take the job at the Market and everything would be easy...but this job is perfect in so many ways!! The hours are great, the pay is OK (not great, but not terrible either), my boss and coworkers are *really* laid back, and so far the job has been really easy and relatively safe as well. I really don't understand these moments of doubt...it feels almost like I'm bipolar or something. The past week has been downright awful...I don't know if it's hormones or what. I am feeling pretty crummy right now as a matter of fact. It doesn't feel like blood sugars...because blood sugars cause different symptoms than this. I'll be feeling great, and relaxed, and carefree one minute, and the next I won't even be able to remember ever having been happy or imagine ever being happy again!! This SUCKS!! And I really don't know what's causing it, which double sucks!!!

Pretty good so far! Yesterday was a little rough, because I was very tired and feeling a bit 'bipolar' but I am enjoying it now. Everyone is so easy going it's incredible!

Awesome!! Congrats!!

Thanks!!

!! I wasn't sure which job I wanted to take, because I really feel "at home" in the other place I applied to as well...but this job seems like it'll be so cool, and when I went to the shop and toured through it, everyone was smiling and happy and laughing. I just knew it was for me.

Thanks!!! Hopefully, this will be MUCH better than my past job. I'm sure it will be. Tonight I'm doing a small ritual of thanks/asking for a good and productive experience.

OMG YAY!!! I got a job!! A totally awesome job, with wonderful hours, and I talked to my boss on the phone and in person and he seems REALLY cool. It's doing machine/metal work, and I've done that manner of work before and I LOVED IT!! I'm SO excited to start tomorrow!! WhOoT!!!

I actually have done that before, in shop class. Didn't sell them though, they're sitting on the family altar. I have a pic somewhere in my gallery here.

I haven't posted my "paper" art there yet. I've got to get going on that. I think I should post the snake sculpture i made for mom. I'll do that now.

maybe I should make one Pertinax!!

Thanks!! I have to remember to upload more pics sometime today.

Ye gods, today has been a day!! I'm exhausted!! I've now got not one, but two jobs "on the line". Yesterday I put in an application at the Dushore Market...again. This morning, after going on a mad search for a wood burning tool, I picked up a newspaper and saw an ad for a machine operator at HTM. I went up and applied, except they were only looking for night shift (shift ending at midnight). I told them I really didn't want to work nights, but I put in an application anyway, and he said he'd keep it on file in case a day position opened up. I got home and talked to my mom, and she said I *should* take the night position (I don't know why really) and I had been thinking about it, so I called them and said I'd be willing to try the night position. He said he'd still look for day hours for me. So I am expecting to hear from him in a few days. Everyone seems so happy there!! It seemed just perfect! Right after I got off the phone with him, I got a call for an interview at the Market. I went, and I was very upfront with the guy about waiting to hear back from that other job. The Market job seems a lot better, in terms of hours, distance and pay (the man from the shop offered me less than minimum wage...I'm assuming that is a mistake on his part as I didn't even know when minimum wage went up). So now I'm supposed to call him on Tuesday and let him know what's going on with this other job prospect. Now I really don't know what to do. I really think it would be better for me to work at the Market, but I don't want to blow my chances on either place until I see what's going on. I'm pulling my hair out here!! But I've got until Tuesday to decide, so I'm going to try to take it easy. I just put up another Wordpress blog for all of my artwork. There isn't much in there yet, but it's here: Earth and Fire.

Oh yea, duh, that makes sense. I think I zeroed in on the wrong part LOL. Thanks for the info!

I think I understand, now that I've read through the rest of the ritual. Does it have something to do with him being thrown to Earth and being "released" for a time? I'm starting to see how the "reversal of roles" could fit in too...his children threw him out of heaven, thus, the children are in control, role reversal. Am I right or way off?

Beautiful!! Also very interesting about the uses of the herbs. I almost wonder if the garden is *supposed to be* rather "run down" in appearance. I don't know...

Oh interesting!! I guess it never occurred to me to "tie up" the gods...what's the reasoning behind that?

It's bronze, a legionary's ring. There's a pic of it floating around this site somewhere.

I agree, it's unlikely that they would cut their own hands if they were soldiers (at least, considering the way in which the Romans were armed and fought). I'd imagine, just as we have 'self-harm' today, it wasn't a completely foreign concept to Romans. It'd be hard to believe that it's a modern issue.

Violentilla~ I have that exact same Jupiter statue on my altar!! What is the purpose of the red string you have tied around him?
