When I was younger I read a book about several (I think four?) children from a small southern town who go to a carnival, and are given the chance to have their one wish granted. They are given little white cards with a red dot in the center, and told to press the dot and make their wish and it would come true. The part that sticks in my mind the most is the young girl who wishes people would take more notice of her, she makes her wish (and either the dot disappears or turns black/dark green, I can't remember) and suddenly all she can say is "Jug o' rum" like a toad. This indeed gets her wish and people take more notice of her. There are other bits, following the other children and how their wishes go awry. They eventually return to the fortune teller/ringleader/whoever and demand he return everything back to normal, that he hadn't told the whole truth. And he refuses. I don't remember exactly how it ends, but I think one boy had saved his card, and sacrifices his wish to return everything back to normal. The book is not "something wicked this way comes" by Ray BradburyI don't remember anything about the title or author's name, but I think that it was a he, and that he has written at least one or two other books four young adults. Google is giving me nothing helpful and any assistance would be greatly appreciated. TIA! Tags: bookworm

Bill's Father just brought down two old bookcases form their hose, and mounted them on the walls for us, one in the yoga/ritual room, and one in the little 'hall way' area between the living room and the bedroom and yoga room. Up until now we have made due with one tall and one short free standing bookcase, but we quickly out grew them, and our floor has been covered with magazines and books for over a year. It feels like Christmas around here, my first task was moving all my knitting books and magazines to one central location on the living room 'hallway' bookcase. Previously they had been stacked on top of my stash bins, and on the floor next to them, and my thread crochet and tatting and spinning supplies piled around that. This of course took up a lot of room in the yoga room. Once the books were in the bookcase, I was able to stack the tatting and thread crochet stuff on top of the stash bins, and move the spinning supplies net to them, feeing up a lot of floor space there. After I finished with my books, Bill went to work on the living room floor books and magazines. (a combination of mine and his, but mostly his, a lot of my books are still at my parents taking up a bookcase and a half on their own) Bill has made a rather large dent in the piles on the floor, and reclaimed quite a bit of lost floor space, but he's still working at it, mostly sorting out junk papers and magazines that got piled in a and lost amongst the stacks and stacks of books. I just offered to bring his tea to him and his reply: "no thank you, I'm surrounded by a pile of dust at the moment" It's so nice to not only be able to see the floor again, but also to be able to easily reach many of the books that up until now have been buried away at the bottom of a pile behind several other piles!

Well, almost anyways. Bill and I decided that since we were going to be in Watertown today, that we would take the Border's coupon that had pointed out by ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) mactavish and buy a new cook book (like we didn't have enough already) So up we go Arsenal street, but it was very busy and the traffic was horribly slow, even for a Saturday. So I decide to take a turn and go the back way to the mall via Coffeen Street. But it takes us even longer to even get on Coffeen that it would have to stay on Arsenal. Once we finally get there we barely got 100 feet before there was a trooper car blocking the way! He was letting people go towards downtown, but our way was completely blocked. Our only way out was to go the completely wrong way down I 81. So that is what we did. We got off at the next exit (Bradley St./Clayton) turn around and get right back on 81. we decide to give the Coffeen St. exit a pass (we assumed there must have been an accident farther up, and that was why we were blocked), and go straight for Arsenal. But don't you know it, but there were troopers all over the place blocking of the Arsenal St. exit too!! So we had to go WAY out of our way to the next exit (Watertown center) then drive all the way back home. Once home we turned on Grandma's scanner, and set dad to watching the news to figure out what all the hub-bub was. Apparently why doing some renovating for a new store in the mall, the construction workers hit a gas main, and the place had to be evacuated! Grandma called Aunt Mary, because she has her scanner on 24/7 and we though she might already have known what was going on, and Tasha had been there when they evacuated. Whoa. in the newsTags: bookworm, family, links, news, outside

I just realized I should probably start up my kegel(sp?) exercises again. I stopped when I got the surgery, and haven’t gotten back to them. Hmmm, that may also help with the pain in certain respects... Tra lala! In other new I slept in this morning, no class today because my teacher is out of town. I think I finally caught up with all the sleep I lost from staying up super late talking to oaksong. (not that I’m complaining... :: squish :: ;) Once I take my shower and pick up my room a little, I have to go run a bunch of errands that I never get around to while rushing to or from class and work. List of things that need to be done: Clean room Cash paycheck Put money in checking account Return 3 week overdue book to library Get on knees and beg them to forgive me Ask about donating large encyclopedia set Make fresh sourdough bread Put away sour starter Do homework Go to work early Weeee! I am so happy and bouncy right now I feel like I could FLY. Tee hee Tags: bodywork, bookworm, food, money, platypus

New Year's resolutions: 1) I WILL NOT begin any more knitting projects until I finish at least two of the projects already on the needles. This includes buying yarn. 2) I will still do the knitting challenge I posted about earlier, despite the recent goings on between me and the receiving party. 3) I will exercise and actually stick to it. 4) I will eat healthier than I have been. 5) As per 3 & 4 I will reach 200 lbs by my birthday (March 29) and be at least 160 (or lower) by the end of June, if not earlier. 6) I will have a job. 7) I will save money, but also make a better effort to actually spend time with my friends in Oswego and other places outside of Watertown. 8) I will read more. There are more I will probably think of later. But really I don't have to (and shouldn't) wait until the new year to make resolutions to better myself. So just because they aren't listed here doesn't mean I won't/can't hold to them. Tags: bodywork, bookworm, holidays, knitting, money, work

So Mom decided to take me to Ithaca this weekend to go eat at the Moosewood Restaurant. About this same time dad got a flyer for a nearby (to Ithaca) museum dedicated to a free thinker. FAMILY ROAD TRIP! Saturday we packed up and headed out. We got to the Robert Ingersoll Birthplace Museum and dad got all excited because he thinks he actually owns some of the guys writing. He's pretty interesting actually and I wouldn't mind reading some more about him. Then we headed to Ithaca. It was a really pretty drive along Seneca Lake and around to the tip of Cayuga Lake. Once in Ithaca we got lost amongst the millions of one way streets until we found the restaurant. Then we got lost again trying to find out hotel because the streets weren't labeled properly. After settling in we headed back to the Restaurant. They didn't start taking names to seat people until 5:15 and it wasn't even 4 yet, so we wandered around downtown Ithaca for a while. There's this really neato closed off to traffic section flanked by all sorts of neat shops and stuff. There was a shop of all sorts of cool cooking tools and specialty pans, two used book stores right next to each other, and at the end of the 'street' there was this super awesome store called 'evolution 124" (I think that's the number I don't remember but it was something like that) that was kind of like hot topic but not. I got myself a new pair of thigh high fishnets for Halloween. Then we went back to the Dewitt building (where Moosewood was) and looked around the stores there. I found a really nice little shop specializing in Japanese and Japanese style prints. It had a lot of really pretty stuff. There were a few used book stores there too, and a normal bookstore called the Bookery where dad bought me a new book (For Her Own Good by Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre English about the mistreatment of women by the medical industry and its idiocy.) to red while we waited for our seats at Moosewood. Finally our names got called and we went in to eat. It was AMAZING! The menu wasn't that big but it was all super awesome, there were only two dishes that I couldn't eat (they serve fish too) we all ordered something different and tried each other's dishes. I got Thai Curry, It was soooooooooooooooooo good!!!! (Although it was a bit spicy and I ate it so slowly that it took a few layers off of my toung ;) and mom really enjoyed it, dad even offered to buy me a lot more of their cookbooks so I could make more meals like that. After dinner it was back to the room to sleep and plan for tomorrow. My parents had been so impressed by all the wineries on our way to Ithaca, and my ravings about the tour I took wit my class that they decided to go home along the Cayuga Wine Trail and stop at a few wineries to try some of the wines. We stopped at Selkirk Shores, Goose Watch and Knapp. It was really nice, my dad was impressed by my knowledge of wines and mom actually found some wines OTHER than White Zinfandel that she liked! We ended up buying 8 bottles of wine (4 from Knap) and they say that I have to start making some fancy meals to go with them. And there going to use at least three of them for Thanksgiving dinner. (yay no more disgusting blue nun!) :) Mom and dad really liked Knapp, and mom bought a stuffed kitty from there. (They have a orange tiger winery mascot cat. And even have a wine named after him. So cute) All in all it was a GREAT weekend, and mom and dad say we may be taking trip like this more often, just a family thing, because it was really nice and relaxing and fun (when we weren't getting lost :: shakes fist at badly labeled road system :: ) :) :) Tags: bookworm, family, food, outside, veg head

I had a nice day today with my family! I slept in until about 11:30 when mom and dad came home (dad had gone to puck mom up from church) We went to Borders and wandered around looking at books, dad pointed out this nifty book called "Bitch in the House" its about how a lot of successful women/wives/mothers who should be very happy and content by society's standards are actually quite miserable and bitchy and moody, and why. It really doesn't pertain to me, more my mother (since it describes her to a tee) but it is really interesting and maybe it will help my understand mom a little more. After browsing around the store with my dad we gathered in the café and drank coffee (I had chai tea) and ate pastries (I have a cinnamon scone, pip, pip, cherio!) and just chilled and talked and read our books. (Mom really liked a cook book I pick out) After we finished at borders we wandered over to the pet store, where they have the CUTEST baby Basset Hound!! Mom and dad didn't want to get him (and I can understand why, we really can't handle a new puppy right now) but we still browsed around a little more before leaving (their kitty toys are way to expensive and not cool enough by kitten standards) After the mall we headed to the Burville Cider Mill, it was totally cool, it was all pretty and autumn smelling (it reminded me of Keats's "to autumn") we got a bunch of fresh cider, some cider doughnuts, cheese curd, and I picked out a nice round pumpkin for carving. It was funny, the guy said if dad guessed the weight on the pumpkin we could get it for free, so dad hefted it a few times and guessed 9lb, but he said he thought that might be too high. So the guy weighs it and it comes out to be 22 lb!! My dad has been lifting iron and heavy stuff for so long on the job, he's quite strong, and the pumpkin felt that light to him! :D After the mill we headed back home, it was such a nice day, I hung out downstairs while dad watch his baseball and football, and helped mom with dinner a little, then I went up to grandmas to work on some cloth pads to use as back up for my Mooncup. The kitten followed me up and spent the whole time crawling under the beds and dressers and getting scared by the sewing machine. :) All in all it was a really nice day. :) yay!

Quoted from Cunt by Inga Muscio "The Lakota believe a people cannot be vanquished unless the spirit of woman is broken.
Though rape is viewed merely as a crime, it is the fundamental, primal, most destructive way to seize and maintain control in a patriarchal society.
When wars are declared, everyone involved in the declaration assumes women will be raped. Invading soldiers do not necessarily rape women to hurt us, per se. Women are raped to stymie the morale of husbands, fathers and sons. Women's bodies are considered solely in regard to how they affect men. In the context of war, rape literally plants the seed of the invader in the body of a people. The secret weapon of was in spiritually crippling an entire nation of human beings and generations to come by sexually assaulting as many women and girls as possible.
Men use our bodies to bear witness to their power.
America was founded on the bodies of women: African women, Jewish women, Native women, Latina women, Chicana women, Asian women, European women. Grandmother, grandmother, grandmother, grandmother, grandmother, grandmother, grandmother.
Guatemalan, Bosnian, Vietnamese women know war.
Pretty much every nation in this world was established by war.
How many women do you think that is?"Tags: bookworm, sex, vagina

It rained for a bit tonight, boy did it rain. I had interesting luck with the rain throughout the day; it would start to sprinkle while I was in the car going someplace, but stop by the time I needed to get out. Or while I was I PP it rained some, but was done when I was finished, and it sprinkled a little on the way to school tonight. But once I got to class my luck changed. (I don't say for good or bad, I like rain, but getting soaked sometimes sucks) no rain while I was in class until JUST before he let us out, and then it poured like a bitch until I was safely on my way home, and then I began sprinkling again when I got into my driveway and had to walk into the house. Ah well. The rain and watching the students run all over the place with their heads ducked got me thinking. When it rains, I don't duck my head and hunch my shoulders (as if that would keep anyone even a bit dryer) I usually walk at a leisurely pace with my head up, sometimes my face turned to the sky and falling drops.(what? A cat who like the rain? Yeah I'm weird.) I think this all started after reading a Tom Robbins book, Another Roadside Attraction I think, or it could have been Half asleep in frog pajamas I can't remember it was a while ago. (If you've never read anything my Tom Robbins, GO OUT AND GET ONE OF HIS BOOKS! He is a magnificent author.) But he said something to the effect of, why should people be afraid of the rain? Its natural,, its not going to kill you, and if your so vain that a few rain drops are going to ruin your image, you have other problems. He also alluded to the fact that rain is a part of nature (duh) and by being hostile and afraid of rain you are denying a very important part of the world. That's another reason why I don't hunch up and try to hide from the rain, it's a part of nature, of the cycle of the earth, I'm pagan, the earth, nature and its cycles (the good and the bad) are all very important and beautiful. I love the rain, it's cleansing, and it cleans all the crap out of the air, and drains away the stuff in the ground. It drops the humidity to a nice comfy level (like tonight) it's just beautiful; it brings food to plants in the ground. You can almost envision rain as something like mother natures menstrual fluid. No rain, no crops no life, but when it rains regularly, there is life and plants everywhere, but if it rains too much everything gets flooded and dies. And the rain cleans everything up on its way down. So when it rains I stand tall, shoulders square and head up, and sometimes I even lift my face to the sky, and thank the goddess for the cleansing waters. And really if you think about it, your mother's old argument that you'll catch pneumonia or something is a bunch of hooey. If your eat and live properly and healthily, your immune system will be in good working order, and a few drops of water and a little chill will be a walk in the park. So yeah, don't be afraid of the rain, I'm not, its happy rain. And the air always smells so beautiful after a good raining. (And during as well) Tags: bookworm, introspection, nature, spirituality

Parents dragged me out and made me go shopping today. I needed to buy some black pants for culinary class. While we were out dad wanted to stop in sears for some work boots (he gets a $100 rebate from work) so while we were looking around waiting for him to try on his boots I saw the coolest pair of boots!! I HAD to try them on, they fit a little weird, and the tong is sewn into one side, so with my fat legs it doesn't cover all the lased part, but they still look pretty damned cool! Especially with my fishnets (I need a few more pairs of those, but most stores don't carry them till Halloween, and hot topic is too far of a drive away.) I also got a nice long black skirt at Fashion Bug, but it doesn't quite match the boots, I need more of a knee length black (maybe leather) skirt. But I needed a plain black skirt as well, so I got it anyways. Sad, I'm turning into more and more of a girly girl. Oh yeah, I embarrassed my dad today! Hehe. Borders is having a buy 3 paperbacks get the 4th free sale, and he got two books and I got a cook book (Moosewood, yummy) and we couldn't decide what to get for the fourth. Then I remembered a book I had been hearing about in one of my communities, so I checked and they had it! "Cunt" by Inga Muscio. Hehe, my dad had to buy this bright blue book with a orange daisy and the word "cunt" across the front. It was so cute. I've started reading it, and it seems like its going to be a very good book. So yeah, I've been acting like a chick all day, weee! And I had fun doing it, so pffffft! Tags: bookworm, family, looks

Yesterday we had a great day, it was the first day in a while that Monica and I actually hung out together. Monica, her friend Jeri and I walked to the farmers market, then the library, and then we decided to head to Momo's friend Amber's appt. But then we remembered that Amber was at work, so we headed back to the farmers market, then we decided to go eat at the Palace Diner since we haven't eaten there before, it was nice. After lunch Momo and I went to Severance Photos to pick up some pics of mine and Jeri went to get her clarinet at the music place. Jeri met us at Severance and Momo got distracted by the Second Look book store so we HAD to go in ;) and of course I can never leave that place without buying something. :P (I got a VHS and a DVD, Signs and Carnivore which looks like a nice cheesy horror) after that we walked back through the farmers market and home after picking up something for the doggies. Then later that day Monica and I drove up to Clayton to walk around and look at stuff, it is really pretty, the islands are so beautiful, and I had fun looking around this one store with all these local paintings, and books about the islands. Super cool. I think I want to get one of the books that had all sorts of photographs of the islands and of boats on the water, it looked really nice. I took a few pictures of the water and the islands and the front of this one house that had (fake) marble lions out front. I want lions out front of my house! All I have are terra cotta frogs... :P Then today was interesting, Monica had gotten a call from Gertrude Hawke (the new chocolate store that will be opening up in our mall) we had both filled out applications for it and turned them in at the same time, but only Monica got called in for the open interview (I think the lady who took the apps. must have misplaced mine or something) but the ladies doing the interview were very nice and let me fill out another application and the manager took a look at it, she seemed kind of excited that I knew sign language, that's a plus, but she didn't ask me nearly as much as the lady who interviewed Monica :: nervous :: the manager said she would have to call my references and would get back to me by Monday. :: crosses fingers and hopes :: After the interviews Monica and I walked over to FYE, Monica was looking for a Moxy Früvous CD (they rock! I think it's because they're Canadian) and while there I saw the Witches of Eastwick on the bargain table and HAD to get it! We didn't find the CD there, but Borders had It so its all cool. Monica you better let me burn it; I need my Moxy Früvous fix! In other good news dad got the drain fixed so we can do laundry at home again! YAY! :D Tags: bookworm, family, food, friends, happyears, outside, tv, work

:: shakes fist at Kiki :: Damn you, you got me sick! :p :) < wine/rant > i woke up in the middle of the night unable to breathe, my whole head hurt, my throat was so dry i couldn't breathe, and my sinuses were on fire. i went into the bathroom and turned on the hot water and breathed in the steam for about 20 minutes while drinking tons of water before i could breathe properly again. Now my sinuses are all stuffy, I'm having trouble swallowing, and i can only breathe out of one nostril, the other one is leaking constantly. To remedy some of this I've been drinking hot tea with lemon and honey almost constantly, which isn't helping the heat. Oh well. < end wine/rant > anywho... I've been doing a lot of reading, i started Holes last night, I'm in love. i also spent a little time going through the two new vegetarian cookbooks i got and marking out some interesting recipes i want to try, and bonding with my grandmother. She has so many old stories from when she was a kid, and knows so much about cooking, i hope i know as mush as she does in the kitchen when i go out on my own.

Whoa, Slept a little too late with that nap, now I'm going to be up all night. Blah, Oh well. I'm going to tart typing up my part of "a night possessed by the beats" its going to be interesting, nokomis1339 and mungojerrie and I all went out our last full night at school and got possessed by Ginsburg, Kerouac and Burroughs. I was Kerouac. Man, poor guy, I dunno if I wanna be him anymore... lived such a depressing life, especially after he became famous. But I do identify with him in a few ways. :: shrugga :: "Houses are full of things that gather dust."

Fuck you world, you get me all used to this routine and friends and company and room and environment then rip it all way from me violently. Fuck you parents for being so different, for only seeing me as I was, not as I am. Fuck you home for not growing up with me, for degenerating if anything. Fuck you friends who are there for you always then wave good bye as I’m dragged away. Fuck you school for teasing me with thoughtful conversations then tainting it with the foul entity of exams. Fuck you love for giving me a taste of paradise and then ripping it away and leaving me there raw and bitter in my own blood and puss. Fuck the world, fuck the government, fuck you, and fuck me. Thousands of dollars to be analy raped by the system Loving me gently with your dreams, ripping out my heart and leaving it bleeding, there, on the sandy earth. Shitting on me with your society and do’s and don’ts The plate ran way with the spoon, eh? Well fuck ‘em both. Fuck you world. Fuck you. Tags: banal, bookworm, drama, rant

So Brandon, nokomis1339 and I were sitting around the other night coming down from a major gaming high, and we were severely bored so we decided to roll up random Nighspawn(bane) Morphus forms, and write a background/character profile/story explaining that form. (For those who don’t know, in Nightspawn(bane), there are these people who can change into much more powerful forms, and these forms are a refection of their inner psyche at the time of the original change. The change can be something as simple as golden eyes, to a half bestial angel with barbed wire bra, three tails, and green skin) I have really enjoyed working on the story for my Nightspawn(bane), its interesting and fun, and I haven’t had a chance to really write something creative in a very long time. I can’t wait to read Brandon’s and nokomis1339’s Tags: bookworm, friends, rp

Around Super Bowl time, I made a bet with my dad about who would win (I knew absolutely nothing of either team) the stake would be that the looser would buy the winner a book. Well I won, so dad owed me a book. We went to borders yesterday and I was looking around, and lo and behold, there on the bargain table were stacks and stacks of books about artists, Monet, Picasso, Da Vinci, Dali, Escher, and tons more. I was in heaven; I stood there for ½ hr looking through the books. All too soon it was time to leave, and my dad, the loving and always enthusiastic (when It comes to stuff like this) offered to buy me more than one (after all they were on sale, and it's ART.) I always was interested in Dali's work so I picked up two books on him, not just pictures of his art, but biography and technological studies, and a book (containing 4 individual 'books') on Escher. I'm in love, I'm enthralled, I can't keep myself from flipping through and reading about their inspiration and methodologies and how much work went into those beautiful and impossible worlds.

Sometimes, no matter what you listen to or read, certain things stick out to you. Each time you read it may be something different depending on what is going on around you at the time. Blah. Read on "and destruction after all is a form of creation." "'You hate him a lot?' Blackie asked. 'Of course I don't hate him,' T. said. 'There'd be no fun if I hated him.' The last burning note illuminated his brooding face. 'All this hate and love,' he said, 'it's soft, it's hooey. There's only things, Blackie,' and he looked round the room crowded with the unfamiliar shadows of half things, broken things, former things." "One moment the house had stood there with such dignity between the bomb-sites like a man in a top hat, and then, bang, crash, there wasn't anything left - not anything." Tags: bookworm
