Uncle Rob Says.....

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I predict that you will go to a grungy thrift store
to shop for bargain kitchen items but will instead buy a magic snow globe
depicting a dolphin drinking beer from a fountain that's shaped like a
silver stiletto pump, and when you get this talisman home you will
discover that it gives you the power to hover and cruise a few feet off
the ground, plus tune in to the secret thoughts of people who confuse
you, and even time-travel into the past for brief ten-minute blasts that
allow you to change what happened. And if my prediction's not accurate
in every detail, I bet it will nonetheless be metaphorically true.


Ummm....what?

Adventures in the Stupid

Virginia made a comment to Tandy the other day about us going north for Ostara circle this upcoming Sunday. Virginia is working at a Groomers, and to say that the lady who owns the shop is weird is a clear understatement.

See, this lady, we'll call her R, is the reincarnation of someone who lived 600 years ago, was a druid priestess in said former life, and is being haunted now by her past life lover, Duncan.

Not weird enough? During one of the druid circles, 600 years ago, moon men came to the circle and mated with the druids to produce an enlightened race.

R knows Virginia is Pagan, knows that I am Pagan, and knows we have occasional circle. She wants to come to one. But not because she wants to re-embrace her druidic roots. No, she wants to see how different modern day circles are compared to the ones she used to attend, 600 years ago.

::facepalm::

When Virginia got the point that in R's opinion we should be chanting the ancient spells in traditional Gaelic, I had to stop her. I was torn between banging my head on a wall to drive out the stupid or tracking this woman down doing a little gene pool cleaning.
