I was going to be good...but it's too late for that... ; )

About Me

I think that the unexamined life is not worth living. I'm WAY too serious, always. Really. I keep thinking that I should just lighten up, but then I'd just be one of the herd. I guess that makes me a discontented Socrates. All those contented cows...so little time... That being said, I'm also here to suck it up - to juice it - to live life fully, and to experience all the joy available to me... I also want the lasting joy that comes from the lessons well learned along the way. I aspire to be a symbolist - to find meaning in all I see and experience - to uncover the hidden truths lurking behind every corner...and to uncover my own bullshit along the way.

My Interests

Magick, Wicca, Occult Study, Ritual, Goddess Work, Meeting people who like to have a good conversation...

Eddie Vedder...mmmmm... Anyone who has had a thought - especially those who've made changes in life as a result... Thinking does that.

As a dear friend once said, "I consider myself rich, because I have too many friends to spend adequate time with, and too many books to have enough time to read."
