Lessons we have learnt!

[angelkitty101]

Number one lesson learnt today is...... never play catch with a child that cannot throw. Or rather, do not attempt to look cool with a child that cannot throw!

Squeak wants to learn to juggle (just like his uncle joda_vibe), but in order to juggle, he has to learn to catch (and throw!) So we're trying to teach him, and this can get quite frustrating and then you end up throwing harder than you meant to. To cut a long story short (too late), I caught a ball that had been randomly thrown in my direction-ish and caught my nail. Which cracked it, below the quick. So it had to be removed (very traumatic) and now it hurts, and looks ugly, and I'm willing it to grow in time for my b'day. Poot!

Also I've forgotten one of my rngs this morning, and now I feel naked without it. It's the one I wear all the time (mainly cos Jodaboi bought it!), keep going to play with it, but it's not there!

Spent over an hour on the phone to my wonderful friend Claire last night. Have decided to do Witchfest on the Sunday, as both Theresa Moorey and Dorethy Morrison (first talk outside US!!!!!!!!) will be there. am now VERY excited, and it's not until Nov. I know valkyrie_n_1 will be going, you coming too tru_loo?

Couple of things, I'm thinking of getting my tongue pierced, and possibly a tattoo in the future. It took me 2+ yrs to get my belly-button done, so I don't rush into these things. The tattoo is definately going to be more spiritual than not, as to get your body marked permanently is a very spiritual thing. But I'm looking for good designs, so far I've not seen anything that has screamed YES! and I don't want Celtic crap (appologies to those with Celtic tats!)

Any advice etc that you can give me on those two would be much appreciated (particulaly the toungue thing - namely pain factor)

Finally - HELLO to indovan - back in the country after disappearing to Florida for 3 weeks - welcome back and we love you!

if anyone suggests booze pre-tongue piercing shoot them. your tongue will piss blood enough, without additional blood-thinning qualities! apart from that, the piercing itself is not very painful, but afterwards the swelling is. keep on telling yourself how good you'll look when you can talk again.
