I feel like the Ten of Wands.

[kiya]

I keep doing small things to make it through what I have to do before Thursday, realising how much I have left to do, and having an overload reaction. Augh! Augh! Betcha my Bs are deficient again, I don't panic like this when I'm properly vitaminated. Must have good meals next couple of days and try to settle down.

I should make a list of things like I did for before the workshop and cross things out as I accomplish them, which might help. And I have more time to do it in, at least.

And the cats' nails need trimmed so they stop trying to rip up the house, and I have no idea where the damn clipper is. And I've been completely drained of emotional energy since at least last Tuesday night, and I don't know how to get it back. I keep trying to realign the souls, and I can't even tell if it's working. I should make time to do a full daily rite thing somewhere. Augh. Somewhere.

• Reorder pills expedited so they have an off-chance of arriving before we leave. Curse the fucking website for being "down for maintenance" when I tried to do this earlier so as not to have time pressure. Express unending hatred for online prescription "services" to anyone and everyone who is willing to listen, or even the ones who aren't, until the pills arrive.

Lists ARE soothing. *sympathetic noises* I so relate-- not at the moment, but in general. Yah. *more sympathetic noises*

Pie ritual?

[kiya]

A while back, on nonfluffypagans, montrealais complained about public rituals that he'd attended, where, basically, a bunch of energy was raised, and then nothing was done with it, leaving him weirdly jumpy and messed up until he managed to fix his head.

Someone posted something to the effect of, "Nothing? Not even wish for more pie?"

keshwyn said something to the effect of, "Hah! That's what we should do for our eclectic Yule ritual!"

I said, ". . . but we don't usually do Yule. . ."

So pie.

[keshwyn]

I think we're gonna have five pies for six people. That's a goodly amount of pie. :)

If we can get that much world peace, I think I will be satisfied for this year.

[larksdream]

I approve!

[brooksmoses]

This does sound deeply entertaining and fun, indeed. Happy pie-ing! :)
