So I was having a restless day. I am between stories and didn't want to spend all weekend sitting in front of the computer. Longpig and Wererogue were going out to a kid birthday party with the smalls, and while I often appreciate having the house to myself, that isn't what I was after today. So I decided I would try and go out

I posted on facebook and considered suggestions there and from Nary to go for a walk somewhere, but ultimately decided that Id already taken the dogs for a long walk, and I didn't know what condition any of the in-town trails were like, and it was cold and snowy and windy. Another friend said I should come out and see her at her monthly tarot gig near one of the farmers' markets in town, and that's what I opted to do. I went to the market first and bought Too Many Treats, then went to check out the used bookshop where she was. She was with another client, and I realized I was going to need cash, so I went off in search of the nearest bank machine. Which wasn't too far, and it was a chance to walk around town in an area I'm not in much. I realized I was just down the street from a taco shop I've been meaning to try, and put that on my mental list.

Once I got back from the bank, my friend was free, so I did a reading. The first part was very much the part of Tarot where it is a matter of perspective to tell you things that, really, you already know. The second part was really way out in left field. I mean you never know what can happen, I guess! After that - tacos! They were really good, with nice soft corn tortillas (the best way imho). After that - home!

I dug out my own highly neglected tarot deck when I got home and did some spreads for myself on that second issue which made more sense, and then because I am a nerd I did spreads for some of my gaming character. One of them got a reading where the four 'cross' points of the celtic cross spread were all reversed major arcana, so that was interesting :V Good luck with life there, Xan :V

During that Wererogue brought pizza to my room, like some kind of stealth pizza delivery. And then later he was in the kids room on which someone had taped a 'keep out' note so I don't know what kind of shenanigans are going on with the smalls, but clearly something!

I took the dogs out for their walk, and it is snowing harder. I actually really like walking outside in the winter when it is snowing, when I'm prepared for it, so it was really nice. There is something magically nostalgic about orange sodium light form streetlight on fresh snow! Also, I'm hoping that it will snow enough that I can maybe take my snowshoes out for a test in the field across the street, and thus justifying the money I spent on them ;p And hey if it keeps snowing I can maybe use them for their intended purpose and use them to get in to work when the trails aren't broken and I don't feel like slogging through deeper snow :3
