MY WEB COMICFirstly I am a goth, secondly I am a Witch, not a Wiccan but a Witch, one of those who follow a practice that has existed longer than 50 years. I believe in all deities (but not an all-powerful God or Satan, those are Christian beliefs, not mine) and love being surrounded by nature, good thing since I live in Wales. Yes I am British, but I am not English, my country has been able at least 3 times longer than Aengelande (English in modern terms). I follow very old teachings, listen to my spirit guides and operate entirely without tools, working exclusively through trance, though I can operate just as well outside it (again without tools).
And no, I do not work in a coven, I am a Hedge Witch.
I have been in love a few times in my life and each time I fall in love I find the emotions and feelings that come ith it truly magickal, I am currently in love now with the most wonderful woman I have ever met. She is someone truly special and I hope I can give her everything she evers wants or needs.
I am an artist (illustrator/animator) by trade and enjoy writing the odd bit of poetry or writing for, and editing Ravenloft netbooks. One of the thing I enjoy most though is just sitting down with a vast supply of sharpened pencils and start drawing. As far as I am concerned the picture is already there and I can see it, it is just that others can't (I swear nearly all the population are mentally blind) until I make it visible to them. I can generate a half decent piece in about 10 or 20 minutes, but with the patience I can happily spend 10, 20 or even 30 hours working on something until I am happy with it (and sometimes I am never happy with something I've worked on).
Currently I am designing a tarot deck (a rather unique one, trust me on that) and a line of printed shirts, both are slowly taking form, but will eventually see the light of day. The Tarot started off as a personal project but quickly escalated into something beyond my control when people wanted a deck when I described it to them.
I guess you would think I am patient, in some respects I am (see above), but in others I can be very impatient, I look forward to things. I look forward to being with my beloved, my friends, I look forward to seeing comments on my journals and blogs, messages on message boards or even a reply to a text message I send. I am very social in all meanings of the term. At the same time, I can be very antisocial, despite being within a crowd and participating in their actions, sometimes it is good to be alone and have your own space.
I am a great listener, I am wise but not preachy (as others put it), I expect people to take what I say in their own way and ammend it to how it would suit them, just because I say something in a form of advise, I do not expect people to follow it to the letter, I expect them to adopt their own interpretation.
As you may well guess, I also rant and happily chase one tangent after another, in fact it is very difficult for me not to wonder off course with what I am saying. My imagination flows to freely and I am always following one train of thought into another, it makes things interesting.
I also enjoy a good pint of bitter/dark ale, so if you ever see me in a pub/bar, buy me a drink and I'll be your friend, lol. If you buy me a real ale or a jagermeister I'll love you forever!!!!
I despise violence in all forms, I detest guns and warheads, and animal and child cruelty make me sick to my stomach. I hate fakes, liars, cheaters, those who will twist your words and turn them into hate to use against you, people who wallow in their own self pity should not talk to me, you want to be depressive and wallow in it? fine, you want to start going on about killing yourself? I will hand you a big knife to do it with. I personally know true manic depressives (I am not using the modern, politically correct term) and I know all about the disease, you can try to fake it if you want but you will fail :P
You want to bitch about your problems, feel free to do so, but go on for to long about them (i.e. - start wallowing in self pity) and I will bitch about mine, I have Muscular Dystrophy and Type 1 Diabetes, if someone can bitch, it is me and I am very good at it, such a shame I am an optimist and normally in good humour.*
My sense of humour can sometimes take some getting used to, I can turn anything into a joke, though I try not to, my humour can be extremely sick and i have made people vomit from the occasional piece of nasty humour.
Lastly, I am a paradiction, in layman's terms a paradox of a contradiction, I am who I am and expect everyone to be exactly who they are and not try to be me or anyone/thing else. I appreciate honesty and those able to take the bad with the good, no matter how bad it can be, there is always hope.
And... ummm... yes, I hope I did warn you all that I can ramble.
Oh, if you want me as a friends, please have something in your profile so I might learn something about you before I make up my mind, I don't like meeting people online without knowing a little something about them. I mention alot of stuff about myself and I think it is only fair that others do that also. Thanks :)
OH! And it really annoys me when I cpme onto My Space to find the bulliten board filled with people on my friends list whoring everyone in sight! Whore a few people if you must by all means, but 10 or 15 people a day is beyond a joke!
I do not tend to update my blog here all that often, so if anyone is on Live Journal or Dead Journal, I am on these are BRAIN_SPIDER , though post on Dead Journal very often (or even at all it seems these days). I can also be found on Yahoo under the name the_lost_hedgewitch .
* - This has been highlighted to remind some people that I am not a dumping ground for their issue/problem/drama of the day, get over it already!
