Raji - 'just existing in the same universe as them" OOhhhhh, that's rich! That's good! I'm bustin a gut!

Answer 1

I woke up! That seems to really cause a stir.

Answer 2

Where so I start?

1. My husband is so miserably depressed that he is difficult to live with and is talking about suicide, he hates his job so much. He is a divorce lawyer.

2. I got a very stinging public rebuke from a colleague here after posting a question.

3. I had to pay an extra $3,000 for plumbing work at my house.

4. I had to go to a Bosnian Muslim funeral for a relative who died, and had to sit through 45 minutes of segregated praying (men in one room and women in the other) with a shawl over my head so I wouldn't offend Allah.

5. The praying at the funeral was entirely in Arabic. I don't speak Arabic.

6. The talking part of the funeral after the Arabic part went on for another half an hour and was all in Bosnian. I don't speak Bosnian.

7. I took my son to his first day of high school and almost burst into tears, thinking of that song about how fast they grow: "Where Are You Going, My Little One?"

8. I can't tell whether I lost my top contributor status or not. It says I still have it when I post this answer, but it isn't on my profile anymore, so I don't know what the hell is going on with that.

Sorry to be a downer, I know this is for levity. I just needed to get some of it off my heart. Thanks. Lady M

Answer 3

1. Delivered a public rebuke to a colleague for poking the BIG Christian Dragon in the eye with a sharp stick without just cause. (Sorry Lady M, I guess I could have been a bit more discreet about it)

2. Delivered a consumer warning about the use of inferior Wicca Wickerworks on behalf of the IWWUA (International Wicca Wickerworkers Union of America)

3. According to SOME, just existing in the same universe as them.

Raji the Green Witch

Answer 4

Hmmm -

1. I took some of the books I bought but only thumbed through(once I realized they were crap) over the Half Price bookstore and sold them to them - and they supposedly on witchcraft, but were clearly just dross. m So bad me, I passed my dross off on others.

2. I painted the diningroom without using a primer - that's a sin to some folks.

3. And just to get this in now, since it'll happen in the next 24 hours - I'll be having sex with my spouse for reasons other than procreation.

4. I'm currently having a case of idle hands when there is clearly work to be done - lol!

5, Oh, and I'm being a bad parent, feeding my family fast food this evening, because we've all been too busy packing to cook. (Next time, damn the expense - movers pack it ALL!)

Answer 5

1. Carved a graven image of Odhinn out of a chunk of antler . . . yes, *really!* :-)
2. Ate boiled shrimp for dinner. Twice.
3. Asked discomfiting questions on Y!A.
4. Conducted a Freyfaxi rite for other heathens (I'm a Freyrsgothi).
5. Had great sex . . . with someone else in the room for a change! :-P
6. Smoked cigars and drank bourbon. Every night.

It's been a pretty good week for basket rides, I'd say. *G*

Answer 6

1. Spent 38 of my 40 hours at work on Y!A.
2. Masturbated about 20 times.
3. Bought my daughter a copy of The God Who Wasn't There.
4. Wore clothes of mixed fabrics.

Answer 7

LMAO. I just pictured the Orkin man. What a weenie! He spends his day dealing with creepy crawlys and runs away from an alter! I would have grabbed a pitch fork and put on some horns and chased him around the yard skyclad!

Answer 8

The men who replaced my septic tank had saw my altar set up in the back yard.
