I am actually travelling today
Even if I woke up late and missed the 9:30 ferry. I can still catch the next one and will be leaving shortly. It’s a long trip and I don’t expect I’ll have the energy to blog when I get home, so I’ll see y’all tomorrow. In the meantime, here’s a picture of a fire.…

Whoops. Here’s a picture of a dog!

A reminder to myself that forming good habits is always harder than I hope it will be
The habit comes from me; the discipline comes from my own head — the part that’s not trying to constantly sabotage anything good in my life.

Oath-bound secrecy, etc. Also, this is not my pagan blog, so what I can talk about will be said at Innocence and Immanence sometime this week. Regardless, SMF is at Fort Flagler, an old military base.…

Better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick (but only marginally)

Passports and Fear
My passport is missing. Actually, my passports are missing. I have two, both current: US and Canada. I only need one to travel (technically*) and I cannot find either of them. I keep them in a special silver case that protects them from electromagnetic rays and beaming up by aliens and other various nasties. Yes,…
