TeaDidikai So I met my new car today. I pick him up tomorrow. He's... got a bit of an attitude problem, but seems like a nice guy. What's his breed? My jeep (Della) has a bit of an attitude problem. She doesn't like getting up early in the morning. I blame it on old age. smile

I'm partial to Teavana; I have an entire shelf devoted to tea and infusions in my kitchen. Davit loves the raspberry black, I'm still looking for a favorite.

Jasmine is nice, but I go through swings between craving it and wanting a higher quality tea. sweatdrop Nuri I'm partial to Teavana; I have an entire shelf devoted to tea and infusions in my kitchen. Davit loves the raspberry black, I'm still looking for a favorite. They seem wonderful. I'm biased towards Floating Leaves because I know how often their stock circulates and I know how the tea is stored (thus I can vouch for freshness- they actually were kind enough to allow me to inspect their containers). TatteredAngel Yay car! As long as you work on the attitude. I think it was akin to waking a teen male up early on a Saturday to do housework- if that makes any sense to anyone. Wouldn't class it as "breed". More like Family. Quote: My jeep (Della) has a bit of an attitude problem. She doesn't like getting up early in the morning.

A bit more easy going too. I think she placed more value on comfort than style. He's a bit high strung as well. We'll see how he feels after this weekend.

Hopefully I can find out soon. whee Good luck on getting him to settle down, Tauruses may not be the sportiest car, but the engine packs a wallop.

Romanus I wonder what the personality on a Scion tC + would be like. Hopefully I can find out soon. whee Good luck on getting him to settle down, Tauruses may not be the sportiest car, but the engine packs a wallop. My experience is that the make and model do not account for the personality any more than being a US citizen and female accounts for my personality. He needs his oil changed and he also needs to have a belt replaced. But other than that- he's warming up.

My goal is to get though the festival calendar today. Oi vey.... (I'm up through september, when I'm done, I'll post what I have, and ask for more suggestion)
You think 8 festivals is a lot, I'm looking at a month where there is at least 8!

patch99329 Good luck nuri! I look forward to seeing what you come with. Will you be using the same calendar every year? Nope, because the Athenian calendar changes every year -- it's more lunar based, and in 4 year cycles. But also more practical reasons: I'm trying out a Demetrian calendar published by Jennifer Rief, that is tuned to the Mediterranean agricultural calendar. I was thinking about modifying it for Illinois cycles, but I'm attempting it unmodified. Demeter is a Greek goddess for a reason, after all, and Reif's book is also full of the spiritual meanings that I can connect to. Even in that case, I'm modifying her dates to fit the Athenian calendar if there is overlap. I'm also working with a bunch of invented festivals, that were put together by a Dionysian Mystery group that went defunct. Since none of the materials I'm using are really oathbound anymore, I'm using discretion in releasing them. I won't post their rituals, but the festivals they created. Sure, why not! I'm hoping that this works out, so that I can just move the dates next year, rather than starting from scratch. And if I need to modify the Demetrian festivals? That's going to be an even bigger challenge next year.

and done!
I'm about to start typing up a list, and I'll make a topic in the main forum, so I can get more ideas if needed. Whenever I finish my pathways topic, it'll go in there too....

TeaDidikai Congrats Nuri! I can't wait to see it! Shouldn't be too much longer, actually. Typing up August now. And I'm using making dinner as a motivator. No dinner until this is done.

phoenix shadowwolf lately, i've found Fords to be settling down a lot. or at least more so then those "born" in the 90's. but that might also be because most of my experience has been heresay from people and their vehicles, and certain people i hung out with had very, ahem, cocky trucks. He's a 2001... maybe he'll mellow in another couple years.

Very cool. Quote: and yes, Tea! please post pictures. i would love to see him! *EDIT: gah, so many edits. what is his name, btw Tea? Sure- I'll post some pictures. And his name is Teriq. I bought him a necklace and chatted with him. He was happy until I had him speed out onto a sharp corner and then I accidentally called him Madrona. sweatdrop It was like calling the name of an ex in bed. I'm in hot water now.
