In an attempt to not get flagged by every spam filter known to man I decided to call this post “Steamed Sponge Cake Pudding with Raisins” when there is really a better, more accurate, and funnier title out there on the horizon.

New World Library was kind enough to send me a copy of “Goddesses for Every Day” by Julie Loar. Being a fan of big books that have lots of info about lots of different religions, I was excited to dig in. What I wasn’t prepared for, was to learn what a thoughtful, inspiring book this has turned out to be.

Energy drinks have always scared me. I don’t know why, but I’ve always been nervous about trying any of them.

However, if Suroh is to be believed, perhaps there is another more complex reason to explain my aversion to Monster Energy Drink.

Hey folks! I actually learned something this month! Click on in to hear about how a little discipline, Living Magick, and a farting I Ching trigram helped me get back on track!

I rarely do follow ups on stories we publish. I’m not certain why, but I suspect it has something to do with me being equal parts absentminded and lazy bastard.
