Have you been properly showered, yet?

By the sublime disclosure of your own good fortune?

Good sister, bad sister
Better burn that dress, sister
Scar tissue, blood blister
Suck up on the dregs, sister ~Hole

( ”Stand )

This is the forest primeval; but where are the hearts that beneath it
Leaped like the roe, when he hears in the woodland the voice of the huntsman
Where is the thatch-roofed village, the home of Acadian farmers,
Men whose lives glided on like rivers that water the woodlands,
Darkened by shadows of earth, but reflecting an image of heaven?
Waste are those pleasant farms, and the farmers forever departed!
Scattered like dust and leaves, when the mighty blasts of October
Seize them, and whirl them aloft, and sprinkle them far o'er the ocean
Naught but tradition remains of the beautiful village of Grand-Pré.

Who: Hannah & Zoe
What: Meetings!
Where: CARNEM's Carnival
When: Nowish
Warnings/Rating: Nope!

The carnival was alive.

It was a warm night, no rain and a pretty breeze to rustle the leaves and the carnival's many fairy lights, and every parking spot was filled. Sounds of wonder carried and carried through woods, and even nature listened. And the carnival itself was crowded tonight, with the Big Top packed in and performers performing with such perfection that it seemed surely, surely a dream. It was a fairytale collection of people, all interesting, all garbed in things from adult whimsy and childhood stories. It was a fantasyland hiding in the woods and incongrous.

Hannah... Amy... Hannah... Tonight, Hannah, because she needed to attempt to put her feet back in those shoes. Hannah was working outside the Big Top, wandering between the rides and food stalls and games. She was one of many, all walking about, interacting, being seen. There were no scripts, no words to say or lines to utter. She was just there to talk, to be, and the night was pretty, and she wore wings and green and tulle, and she glanced from face to face to face, seeking something and nothing at all, but she would know when she found it.

Hello, I am Audrey Carpenter, but I am pretty sure most of you know that. Um.

I'm not really sure what to write here, but I was told it'd be beneficial for everyone, so here goes:

My memory [...] isn't what it was. The doctors said it can happen after [...] unpleasant events. They're not sure when or if it will come back, but they'll be working with me closely over the next few months.

I get out of the hospital in a week or two, I'll be moving in somewhere with my cousin?. [...] I am going to be reading through old posts to try and see if it helps at all, and to re-familiarize myself as best as I can.

So, I guess this is a re-introduction of sorts, and so no one gets too confused if I don't recall who you are.

Hi.

Also, thank you to everyone who looked for me and came to the hospital. I was told it was a lot. Oh, also. Whoever found me? Thanks. I can't remember your name.

[Posted closer to late afternoon!]

Who: Tilda and Zo
What: Reunion

Today's card is a doozy. Say hello to The Devil, Reposians.

There is no finessing card #15, The Devil. It is not a good thing to get this card in your reading, with the exception that it may be the confirmation you need to end a dysfunctional relationship. The core of this card is a negative relationship that you have with someone or something. Getting the devil card in your reading shows that you have feelings of entrapment, emptiness and lack of fulfillment in your life. It might also mean that you are a slave to materialism and opulence and no matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to shake off the feeling of wanting to indulge in luxurious living.

You might be aware that this kind of lifestyle is leading you down the rabbit hole, but you have that feeling of not having any form of control over your actions or urges.

Addiction to substances or material pleasures can also be the reason for your feelings of powerlessness and entrapment. In situations such as these, you may feel as though you are a slave, unable to control your impulses or willpower to direct yourself towards something other than the satisfaction of these desires.

Lust and temptation are symbolized by the Devil in a love tarot reading. There can be a sense of hedonism, and a selfish desire for gratification with this card. In less serious circumstances, it can also just simply mean a pursuit for all of life’s earthly pleasures. There is nothing wrong in having a bit of fun, but make sure that you are not hurting others or giving them wrong impressions when you do. If you’re only looking for hook-ups, it is up to you to communicate that with your dates. Make sure you avoid pressuring others if they decide your lifestyle isn’t something that suits them. Communication will be more important than ever now.

I thought these were meant to be the warmer days.

Is anyone hiring?
