You are The Hermit


Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.


The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.


The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.


The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

On Birthdays

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

So, that time of year has come around again. And, once again, it sort of snuck up on me. So, the one day out of the year that I can truely proclaim is all about me will be spent pretty much like any other day. Not that I am complaining really. I'm not really a lime-light kind of guy. I am much more comfortable out in the wings, hiding in the shadows. Besides, my wonderful lady courtierka has offered to cook dinner for me.
I guess what has me thinking is how passive I am on so many things, and wondering what events and experiences have made me that way. Or is this a nature vs. nurture kind of thing. Was I just constructed in such a way that sends me scurrying for the shadows when the spotlight turns on? And is there some way to change that? Do I want to change that.
But Sunday is my birthday and most of the day will probably be spent in front of the computer playing games. I find myself wishing that I had contacted friends last week and arranged some social time. Perhaps that can happen next weekend for my lady's birthday.

You Are an Astrologer



You tend to be a fanciful, spiritual person with many interesting theories.

You are always trying to figure out how all the pieces of the world are connected.



You have a knack for predicting the future and reading people.

In modern times, you would make a good self help guru or a director of a non profit.

Well, after spending most of last week assisting Krazy Kat with their inventory, one of my temp agencies has come through with a two week data entry assignment.  It will be good to be making money again.

Well, as if this week \has not been stressful enough.

I am now jobless.

I was completely blindsided by being fired today.
Not much else to say that is repeatable even here.

So, if anybody knows of data entry or accounting clerk positions that are open, let me know.

* Grab the nearest book.
* Open the book to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post the text of the next few sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

Use these steps to analyze the effects of the business transactions:
1. Analyze the finincial event.
- Identify the accounts affected.
- Classify the accounts affected.
- Determine the amount of increase or decrease for each account.
2. Apply the left-right rules for each account affected.
3. Make the entry in T-account form.

This from College Accounting Tenth Edition, Price, Haddock, Brock.

Yes, it really was the closest book. And, I took that class 4 years ago.

Well, my birthday has come and gone.
Courtierka was off in L.A. at the IKINS.
Sounds like she had a wonderful time.
I spent the weekend relaxing.
Saturday night a couple of friends took me out to dinner and then we played some pool for a couple of hours. Even though our skills were nonexistant we had a lot of fun.
It was nice to do something out of the routine.
I did not get any project work done, but the front motif on the needle book cover is over half done, and I have picked a pattern for the back cover. So I don't feel bad about not working on it this weekend.

At work we are getting closer and closer to the holiday season. And since I work for a charity processing incoming financial donations, it is a really big deal. We have a good team put together, so I think that this year will go much more smoothly than any of the years since I started here a little more than three years ago.

Well, back to work for me.

Your result for Which Vampire the Masquerade Clan Are You?...

The Lunatics {Malkavian}

3 Assamite, 4 Brujah, 2 Gangrel, 21 Malkavian, 11 Nosferatu, 7 Toreador, 5 Tremere, 3 Ventrue, 4 Lasombra, 7 Tzimisce, 11 Setites, 6 Giovanni and 11 Ravnos!

The Malkavians are mad they say. The violence of being turned from humans into monsters has scarred them irreperably so that every one is hopelessly insane. Some Malkavians see their madness as a gift and are completely aware of it and it's uses. Most, however, are victims of their violent mood swings, homicidal urges or complete memory loss. They tend to dwell in a world between reality and fantasy, fiddling with the devil and exposing their naughty parts to God. They are the most feared and reviled of all vampires due to their unpredictable natures.


For you to be a Malkavian means that your entire reality probably resembles tea with Alice and you're the mad hatter...or possibly the door mouse. It's hard to keep your attention at best and it's hard to keep your victims blood off your nice clean trenchcoat at worst. It's not that mommy didn't hug you, it's not a chemical imbalance, you're just crazy. This doesn't mean, however that you can't mix your ridalin, prozac and antipsychotics. Actually you should cuz it gets pretty interesting....oh wait, you're undead. You see and remember what others ignore and have forgotten. You are truly enlightened, now give me back my "my little pony" you sick freak!

The days are slow and the months fly by.

I last posted in June admonishing myself to post more often.
And now it is September and my birthday is right around the corner.

But not all is as bad.
I finished the "monstrosity" and my elephant caftan.
My newest project is a needle book cover.
It will have a cross-stitched shaker design.

And I have admitted to the reality that I am getting older.
I bought a magnifying lens that I wear on my head.
It makes me look like a kooky old man, but I can see what I'm working on better and with less eye strain. So I suppose that is a good thing.

Life is busy, as it always is. And I am beginning to use my time better.
Not every day, but more often than has been the norm.

Later Days.

Dear Santa

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

for my friends who have been pestering me for ideas...

I am currently playing World of Warcraft, EVE Online, and City of Heroes. So, game time for any of those games is good. Also, the Burning Crusade expansion for World of Warcraft would be good.

I collect small elephant figurines, pictures, puzzles and beads, buttons, charms. But not too cutesy.

Currently I am exploring eastern religions. Specifically Hinduism. And reading books by Osho. I currently have "awareness".

Other ideas include fiction books; I am tending towards sci fi/fantasy and mysteries usually of the humorous or thriller varieties.

Comic books/graphic novels are good too. I am reading Girl Genius online and my favorite super hero is Doctor Strange.

T-shirts with comic book figures or elephants would be enjoyed much since many of my current shirts are getting old.

And finally is wood working tools. Specifically scrapers and small wood turning tools. I also want to start making my own arrows so a fletching jig or shaft straightener is needed.

I also have a snow leopard from Build-a-Bear. Her name is Alicia and she needs new clothes.

Your Score: ellipsis


You scored 46% Sociability and 70% Sophistication!



Your life can be difficult because of your insecurities, but you should know that it isn't your fault. YOU didn't ask to be thrown in around thirty times per page in every bodice-ripper on the shelf! Those who overuse you can kiss your . . . you know. You need to learn to hold your head high and glory in your solitude. You really do have excellent, scholarly tastes. You must never forget that your friend, the period, will be there to support you at the end of every sentence where you truly belong, and, if what is left out is as important as what is said, why, then you are as vital as the alphabet!

Well, it was annual checkup time again.
Seems that other than gaining back all the weight I lost before going to Paris, I am pretty healthy. All the parts look/feel/sound in good working order. We just have to wait for the bloodwork to come back.

Now i guess I just need to take a little better care of myself.

You Are a Dreaming Soul

Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this world
So much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time
You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all...
But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult

You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you.
Forgiving and tolerant, you see the world through rose colored glasses.
Underneath it all, you have a ton of passion that you hide from others.
Always hopeful, you tend to expect positive outcomes in your life.

Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul, Prophet Soul, and Traveler Soul
