I'm glad you're doing better. As to your difficulties with Odin and Freyr...wow. I'm tempted to appeal your case to Divine Children's Services. You'd be placed in the custody of a foster pantheon free of such abuse, possibly under the care of Kwan Yin or the White Tara for a while.

We should get together again soon. Let me know what your schedule's like.

Oh, and what I've been up to: writing, doing karate, and I've just started parkour!

Me and Tj were just talking about Karate last night. See...I'm on this diet/exercise program... I was thinking about what I wanted to do once I'm really in shape to supplement my activities so that my body doesn't get too used to what I'm doing and adapts to it. I'm can't think of what I'd rather do, high activity or something more geared towards energy work and slower... Tai-chi or tai-kwon-do....haven't decided yet. I've got time though, I'll be doing this for at least 2 months. I'm thinking that I might take an OSU class in the spring to see if I like Tai-kwon-do first. If not, I'll probably move onto either karate or Tai-chi ( ... )

BTW.. I read your post and I have to agree with some things... However, I feel that what I've talked about on my LJ might have mislead you into believing something about my practice that's not very accurate. But regardless, I'm determined not to get defensive over experiences that I've had that I can't change. But for reference, I know that a lot of people view their Gods in parental ways, but this is something that just doesn't ring well with me. I view myself as being seen on relatively equal terms with my deities. As far as the harsh punishment that I received from Odin...he had every right to do the things that he did. I made a deal with him, one that he had the right to collect on whenever he felt was right. And when that time came, I basically told him to fuck off, that I was busy. And kept doing it repeatedly onwards. So yeah, I can see how that would piss him off. It'd piss me off too. So yeah, I think that I deserved the punishment that I received. Maybe I shouldn't have referred to them as being lessons, but at ( ... )

Consider this an invitation over to my place for tea and chat. Let me know when you're free.

wishmaiden January 13 2008, 00:39:34 UTC

I'm free on Mondays and Fridays after 2:30....any of those days alright with you?

viedansante January 14 2008, 06:39:22 UTC

Monday I'm free 3:30 until 5:15 and then after 6:18. Fridays I am variably free, depending. I don't have your number anymore, but mine is the same as it's always been. I can be free today at 3:30 if you want to get coffee on campus.

Glad you're feeling better :) I haven't been up to much, myself. Just doing what I do, which is generally boring to everyone, and getting along just fine, like always. But busy as hell.

Hope to see you very soon.
