Voice Post: Trying Something New
Assi Plaza and hanging out with friends
I don’t feel so good this morning. My stomach has actually been doing really good these past few months, I think switching from regular milk to soy milk has helped a lot, and I’m not eating as much chocolate as I was this past winter. I wasn’t drinking beer and coffee for a while either. […]
shaman.princessleia.com
After much hard work, it’s now up: http://shaman.princessleia.com It’s a site for both Michael and I to spout our shamanic journeys and thoughts. It’s a work in progress, we’ll be adding and expanding pages probably forever. It has an RSS feed: http://shaman.princessleia.com/?feed=rss2 I’m not doing a LJ syndication though, I’d hate for people to comment […]
Magic Room
“I feel like I can’t relax and concentrate, like you’re going to walk through the room, or the cat is going to come bother me.” “Yeah, we need a room for this.” We’re referring to our meditation and journeying practices. That’s when we thought of the space above the garage. We get to it via […]
Coffee Luddite
We got a new coffee maker here at work. It’s got a digital display, menus, and is all sleek and new looking. I strongly dislike it. The old one we had just had three mechanical buttons: Coffee/Tea, Espresso, Hot Chocolate. Each morning I hit the espresso button twice, to fill my cup halfway with hot […]
Disconnected
The week has been going by quickly for me. I’ve been doing a lot of deep thinking. Too much deep thinking. My brain hurts. All those philosophical questions that float around your head and invade your dreams when you’re studying a new form of spirituality. I’ve felt disconnected, and not much like myself. Writing about […]
Sniffles and pharmacies
Tired today. Around 3am last night I woke up sneezing. I got out of bed to blow my nose, and sneezed about a dozen times in the bathroom. This was weird, I have never had such a sneezing fit before. I tried going back to bed but kept having to blow my nose and I […]
Shaman class – Day 2
I am really tired today. I got up around 5:30, Caligula alarm clock woke me up then. Took a shower, got Michael out of bed and while he was showering I got everything together for the second day of the Shaman course. We were out the door by 6:30. It’s amazing how little traffic there […]
Shaman class – Day 1
Today we went to our first day of the Shamanic Life course. We got there at 8:30, and it turns out there are 20 people taking this course, which is more than I expected. My psychotic shyness kicked in immediately. Plus all the names to remember! I felt slightly uncomfortable, I’m coming from a history […]
boring errand stuff… and Shaman course begins this weekend!
I am exhausted. It was a busy day at work. For lunch I took a co-worker up the street to Greater India for their lunch buffet. I’d never been for their lunch buffet, it was pretty good. My co-worker was very impressed, and amused that the staff there knew me. I was so full when […]
