About Me

I am on the cusp right now. between the once was and the will be. I am a worker bee, a student and a teacher, an old warrior, a frustrated poet. I hate George Dubbya. I know things... things other people shouldn't.I have the coolest friends in the universe, much cooler than yours, really,(unless you are one of my friends then you totally know what I mean nudgenudgewinkwink)but don't get upset about it dears; we always have room for cool new friends.I am in the SCA of course, and that does indeed make me a big nerd. I teach middle eastern doumbek and a little African djembe drumming and I am the founder and Chieftain of the Red Hands Tribe.I am going to college to be a teacher, because that is what I love doing...I figure if I am going to die poor, it may as well be poor and happy,eh? I like writing and good spoken word performances. I love a good story and if you can tell me one you might get to be my friend.
I edited my profile with Thomasâ€™ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

My Blog

the trick is landing on your feet.

In the last few months, things have been going terribly wrong. every thing I tried to do to improve my situation, I mean every thing, turned ass up on me. I ended up at my aunt betty's house, living w...

in the space between

I need to go and be the Butcherman again. Caught here in the space between the hurting and the healing, the waiting and the wanting, the languishing and the lonliness I am going out of my tiny little ...

A Tavern Tale

The Tavern was just that. It had no clever name like "The Gurgling Snurd" or even "Coldale Tavern"; it had in fact no name at all. Coldale was just big enough to have one, and so the folk there were c...

Will the real God please stand up

It was inevitable; perhaps, that my recent brush with death would bring me to once again ponder the non-existence of God. I have been doing this on and off for most of my life. As a child, steeped i...

Hate you, hate me, hate this.

To be Honest, I don't think I am even capable of hatred anymore. Oh rest assured brothers and sisters, I have plenty of reason to hate. Life altering and unrequitable thievery and betrayal coupled wit...
