Lemme copy and paste something that's been sitting in my various inboxes on my yahoo mailing name....
******
E-Mail Title: "Why I Love My University Library"
From: Rachael (my ex.....)
To: A bunch of people, including me.
I'm procrastinating as usual, because I have a women's studies paper due tomorrow and one due from last week that I haven't started (eep) but I was searching the library catalog (as I am currently on the 2nd floor of the library) for random things, notely wiccan stuff, which I am sort of drawn to by hanging out with several spiffy people, and visited a yummy pagan/wiccan store yesterday, and purchased stuff and was given a flier on chaos magick classes, which my mother then found on my floor..but..I digress. The real focus of this email is this, which I have not checked out but am drooling over...
(NOTE: That is followed by a -very- long book description about something relating to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Things used in the series, the religion, magick, stuff like that. Didn't bother copying it, I never even read the whole thing. I stopped after seeing "Buffy")

Just don't start practicing Wicca unless you really mean it, not just cause you think it's cool. People like that give other devotes and a lot of determined and dedicated novices and initiates bad names. And they screw up a crapload of spells ands sends theSpiral and all those other balance signs for a loop.
And be sure to get that Karma rule down, otherwise, Karma's gonna be chewing on your ass for months. She ain't lenient, either, trust me.

silly, I've been thinking about this a looooong time. I don't buy into Hell..why would someone get eternal punishment for mistakes, or, for homosexuals, punishment just for who we love? it doesn't make sense. at all. but yeah, ruthie's pagan and you're wiccan and amanda (NOTE: Not the one I talk about, cause I don't know this one...) and tabitha are pagan and they took me to this awesome pretty store and I got all these neat pretty things. and I'm late for class so I have to run because it's all the way across campus :(

I don't think she got what I was saying.
As for the long time part, I highly doubt. If she was, she might have tried talking to me about it. She just started talking about it, what, these past few days? ::snorts:: I've been studying it for... over two years, maybe over three, and I'm still not a complete initiate. And I thought about it for roughly a year before I started.
I don't know whether I want to strangle her or not. Just because she knows a bunch of people who are wiccan/pagan doesn't give her that big a reason to want to convert. Hell, I know a bunch of Christian people, even two Buddists, and I don't follow either of those religions.
I probably should have commented on the whole chaos magick class thing, but I think I'll let Karma do that for me.
And another thing, something I should probably tell her, is that she has no right to use "silly" or any other pet name she gave me while we were dating. I've been trying to get past it and let it go, but everytime something like that comes up.... well, it ain't pretty.
At least I have Sunday to look forward to. I think I'll manage to keep myself out of the house all day. Hopefully, anyway, and if I'm lucky I might not even get back to the house until late. But, you never know.
