Today was the festival of Matronalia; ancient Roman holiday, very similar to America's Mother's Day - except most people just think Mother's Day is a Hallmark holiday. I hate it when people dismiss holidays that were once so important, they still hold value.

I think, because of everything going on, my mind is just wandering and pulling up bits of information from high school (like Roman holidays). I’ve even caught myself thinking about the philosopher Pythagoras and the characters, virtues, and other properties he taught in regards to numbers. Which then spins off and has me thinking about the Tetragrammaton, of course.

I had a reason for posting...I really did...but now I can't stop thinking in this straight line and I'm stuck on numbers. Maybe I need sleep.

I am hoping that someone might be able to assist me. I am looking for someone who would be willing to accept and sign for packages for me during the daylight hours. Many places are willing to leave the packages at my door but for the places that require a signature, that is difficult. I do not wake during the hours between sunrise and sunset. Not at all. Thus my request. It should not be too onerous a task, only a few packages a month, and I will provide you with whatever authorisation is necessary.

Growing up in Alaska, I was surrounded by winter sports. The only one of them that I ever tried was skiing. Sometimes the easiest way to get places was by going cross country. I was never good enough to think about competing in the Olympics but I have a lot of respect for those who do. Right now I'm watching the four man bobsled and that looks like fun.

I have been watching the current Olympic Games with great interest. They had been discontinued in my time. It had been over 300 years since the last games had been held in Greece. If I recall my history correctly, it was Flavius Theodosius Augustus who was responsible for that. We only had the ludi and chariot races at the Circus Maximus and other such places. i enjoyed those but they were nothing like this.

I have to admire the athletes I have been watching. The events are largely nothing like anything I know but they are exciting nonetheless. The speed skating I was watching was remarkable.

I swear, the next person who asks me what it's like to sleep with Klaus will get to hear about how Hank is in bed- Oh my god, I didn't, and I wouldn't, and dear God it was in the creepy messy woods! Totally a worse decision than when future!me killed those witches. Fangtasia is sparkling practically, now. And my apartment.

Everyone who expressed interest in bartending at Fangtasia, I am going to host a party - the 15th. Let that work with your schedules because I would like you to bartend. The first 100 people 18+ to RSVP will get invitations.

“You attend the funeral, you bid the dead farewell. You grieve. Then you continue with your life. And at times the fact of her absence will hit you like a blow to the chest, and you will weep. But this will happen less and less as time goes on. She is dead. You are alive. So live.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 6


Just something I read and thought I'd share because, chances are, I'm not the only one who needs a reminder.

It has been interesting observing the holidays that have just passed. They are different from the ones I used to celebrate and yet not so different at the same time - gatherings of family and friends, good food, good wine and gifts. It is good to know that while time changes some things, not everything is different.

[Filtered to Magic Users]
It was suggested that I make contact with you. Would any of you have any information regarding what I believe are called Elder Futhark runes here in this world? I seek better translations than what I have found on the internet, if that is possible.

I'm not certain whether to thank the tesseract for sending me Mary's ring or curse it. I had though it lost, taken by Theron for the gods only know what purpose. But that does not matter now. It is here, with me, a reminder of all I was, all I had in front of me and my purpose now.

It has been interesting observing this Christmas celebration. It still seem strange to me not to be celebrating Saturnalia at this time of the year, though both festivals have celebration, feasting and gift giving in common. So since I know little of this Christmas, I shall instead say 'io Saturnalia' to you all.

So it could be done! They could drink dead blood but only Baella knew how. Which was unfortunate because she was not here. )

Could anyone advise me how to contact a teacher so that I may learn this English you all speak now? I cannot continue to rely on this machine to translate for me.

You busy? I could use a hand with something.

Just a heads up. I found a vampire tonight who'd been bitten and apparently drained of most of his blood. Not sure what happened yet, but it didn't seem like the biting-as-foreplay thing some vamps do. Until we figure out what it was, be careful. I don't want any of us to be the next victim.

[Filter: Basically, any character who comes from a world that has native vampires. Buffyverse, SPN, TVD, Twilight, True Blood, etc. Angel's close friends from non-vamp-having worlds can see this too. Just because.]

Anybody know of a creature that feeds on vampire blood? (Giles, Wes? Did that kind of thing ever come up in the Watchers Diaries?) Or even just a reason someone/something might bite a vampire -- any lead would be great.

Salve. Mirum me dicunt aliena machina eloquium meum mittam in loco isto. Sed nescio quo modo fieri possit, non intellego est locus, de quo plura. Nomen mihi est in Ierusalem legionario Taras sum et non semel.

Informatus etiam sum, ut sim tibi. Postremo cur non ille cum me incendere conati uulgus. Sed qui me; ego autem sperabo. Ego sum ​​a Bachiyr. Non juvat, quod non sit materia una. Melius est quod est necesse ut id quod sum et ego. Quondam ego nuntiavit mihi vivere atque arbitrio.

Placet vobis occurrere. Ut spero tibi modum aptiorem non intelligo te quia lingua Roman.

Hello, everyone. My name is Virginia Potts. I'm better known as (and answer to) the moniker that Tony gave me many years ago, Pepper.

I wanted to take a moment to welcome you all to the Refugee Network. Tony Stark - as well as many others - created the network so you would have a safe space to talk without the prying eyes of the media. I'd like to give them a warm thank you for their hard work.

Some of you have been here for a while, and as of today, the Tesseract has given us more refugees than it has in the previous five months, and it's still going. I'd like to take a moment to thank the hard-working men and women of S.H.I.E.L.D. for their diligence and perseverance. Without their quick thinking when refugees began to appear, this would have been nearly impossible for any one of us to handle.

And on that note, Director Fury has asked me to pass along the message that they are in dire need for Administrative Staff to help with processing. Anyone who is interested can pass on a note to your Housing Assistant.

Speaking of, there should be one Housing Assistant per two floors (and in one case, three floors). Should you require any assistance, they should be able to help you. Potts Tower is not a new building, but we have gutted it, given it an ARC reactor for clean energy, a full service gym in the basement, an outdoor patio and pool area, and an entertainment area. We plan to utilize all of these areas in the upcoming holiday season in the hopes that it helps alleviate some of the melancholy of being without your families.

Once again, welcome to the Refugee Network and Potts Tower, and I look forward to getting to know you.

-Virginia Potts
