Lost confused and looking for Inspiration - Stage 2

Saturday, October 29, 2005 at 3:01 pm

Catch up... One two three!

Okay, I know I've been lax, remiss, not bloody here, but seriously, I've been really busy.

So what has been happening?

Outside Edge - the play happened.
It went really well, good houses, a few botched lines, but on the whole the audience seemed to like it and I've had some really good feedback from it. I'm a bit sad cause its going to be my last play for some time, what with this baby stuff going on and all.

New Trailer
K and I decided a couple of weeks ago that we really liked trailer living and we umhhmed and arhed and then decided to upgrade our lovely trailer to an all singing all dancing one, with double glazing and central heating. Its lay out is more housey than our current one and I love it. So we/I have spent the last few weeks packing boxes and getting things ready for the great upheaval.

A visit from Marci
Marci has been up a couple of times now. Its always gorgeous to see her because even with all the health and home stuff she is going through herself she always makes me feel positive and able to cope with stuff.

She caught the bus up - cant remember who she came up with, but it was a complete disaster, no flushing toilet for 7hrs.

We had a thoroughly lovely weekend eating, drinking (them not me, well I had a few) and watching all the TV we had pre-recorded for her. CSI, House and various other stuff.

She even came and sat through the play and helped me load up boxes for the forth coming move. Generally I have to say a bit of a star visit.

K went down to London last weekend to meet up with Robert, they had a good night out, not really a Stag night as such but time for a few drinks, chat about the wedding and a bit of back patting and male support!

Work continues to get strange.
The Mawanker is making things difficult for me in all sorts of stupid little ways - denying me cartridges for my printer so I can't print in classes, changing systems and not telling me etc, the list goes on but is too boring to blog about. I spoke to his assistant and felt a bit better about her. I had been thinking it was a gang up on Shannon situation (Paranoia, my best friend) but it turns out she thinks he is a bit of a git as well, but is just worried about her own situation!

Anyway I'm now trying to decide if I go to the Union and try and get things clarified or if I just need to take the bull by the horns and approach the Mawanker to see if we can clear things up. I know the second options sounds more reasonable but he is just so bally unapproachable and I'm not sure if what I say will be acted on or used against me.

And finally there is/was Halloween.
This is one of my fav times of the year not because of the USA tendency to dress children up as ghosties and ghouls, but because of the Pagan festival Samhuin (pronounced Sow-Ain)its the time of conception, the first three days of winter and is also known as three days of no-time, the three days when the veils between this world and the spirit world do not exist. This is a good time to let go of things that are holding you back and to embrace change and an excellent day to honor the Ancestors and those that are yet to come into this world.

So on Saturday whilst on my own, I lit a candle and thought about those who I have said goodbye too and welcomed those who i have met and will meet!

All in all life is going well, its full of positive vibes (excluding the work front) and I'm heading into the winter thinking things are just actually getting better!

YIPPEEEEE!!!!

Samhain is still celebrated in Ireland and Scotland although it died out in this country in the last century. The remains of the Samhain festival was adopted into the Christian Church as All Hallows in the year 835CE, where the poor would go from house to house asking for Soul Cakes in payment for praying for the soul of the families dear departed.

By the late 19th and early 20th century this was taken over by ruffians who would throw clumps of earth and broken pots at the doors of houses that would not give them cake, and so Trick or Treat was born.
