In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Second Surgery 

OK. I got the date for the second surgery: April 25. *sigh* I wanted it tomorrow, or the next day. Six weeks seems like such a long time! Well, I'll just use the time to continue to get healthier. I'm counting on you all to be with me again, if you will. Whatever you did really helped this last time.

Now I'm off to do the taxes. Very cranky. I was up until 3:30 a.m. doing them (because I couldn't sleep). That made me cranky. Then I got crankier because I didn't have TV to distract me from the crankiness and the taxes. This too shall pass.

P.S. Great piece by my not-so-secret love, Molly Ivins: Enough of the D.C. Dems. Right on, Molly!

The delay's frustrating. But it will be a nice time of year to wander around testing scents. Here's hoping for good news!

Hi,

I found my way to your blog through the Journal for Mythic Arts. I very much enjoyed your essay on illness and the story of the Girl with the Silver Hands. I've read through your journal a bit and thought to recommend the following book to you (I know! So many books, so little time):

Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia: How the Whole World Is Conspiring to Shower You With Blessings by Rob Brezsny of freewillastrology.com. My apologies if you already know about it.

My journal is at http://thesecondcircle.livejournal.com/ where I just wrote a essay that spawned from "Story Telling and Healing" by Heinz Insu Fenkl from the same issue as your article.

Blessings through this difficult time,

Venecia Rauls

Thanks, Will! Yes, indeed. It should be a wonderful stinky time of the year.

Hi, Venecia. I'm glad you're enjoying The Journal of Mythic Arts. I'm pleased and proud to be a part of it and look forward to it as much as anyone! I'll look for the book you suggested. It sounds interesting. And I'll check out your site anon. Thanks!
