Toronto Pagan Pride

Aug 20, 2006 17:30

Yesterday I went to Toronto Pagan Pride. There was a decent turnout despite a few minor showers. I was able to catch up with some old fiends (some of whom I expected, and some of whom I was surprised to see) and meet some new ones as well. I exchanged a few promises to get together with some of them, and to be a guest speaker another event in ( Read more... )

Just an honest inquiry: did you say "old fiends" on purpose?

DOH!
While it was fiendish fun, I did intend that to be "some old friends ... and meet some new ones as well".

'Tis grand, like!

I used to sign my letters, in my early college years/heavily-shallow-pagan days, "Your fiend" and "Deer friend" (and then put antlers on my initials).

Anyway, it sounds like it was great, I'm glad it was successful and fun for you, and I'd love to hear/read your paper, if you have a sendable copy!

I wish that we had more time to chat! But, I am thrilled that you will host the next BB Pub Moot in September! Yay!!!!

Hey! You feeling better?

I'm looking forward to hosting September's BB Pub Moot!
It's not a roll I'd want on an ongoing basis, but I glad to pitch in when I can.

We should touch base privately, as I'll need a bunch of pointer and advice - not with the working the room part, but with the stand up routine at the front. :)
And more time to chat is a great idea anyway. :)

Yes, better. I am still fighting something though. It appears that I need to sleep an awful lot this past week, so I am boosting my immune system and developing a better way to deal with stress.

I would love to sit and chat with you privately!! Are you around on the long weekend? Technically I am not here but secretly to those I cherish I will be around. wink, wink, nudge nudge!!

Call me later this week.

BTW, how are you enjoying your new found freedom??

macnacailli August 28 2006, 00:29:11 UTC

I am in town this weekend, and I'll call you later in the week.

I'm not free until the 5th, but I'll keep you updated.
... of course my 'freedom' will consist of 50-some hours a week on site at the hospital (sans paycheck)...
... And after 17 years at the bank my excitement is more than a bit tinted by angst.
