lydamorehouseCaptain America is taking this week off. I started the week feeling okay, but then I caught a nasty headcold which required much sleeping and no treadmilling. Now I bleed. Thus, Cap will probably not get in a decent work out until sometime after Christmas, as I suspect my gym will be closed for said holiday.
Mason can't WAIT to open his Solstace presents, which magically appeared under the tree last night (thanks to some tireless wrapping by the Solstace fairies.) BTW, the threat, "The Solstace Fairy is watching you!" doesn't hold the same water for Mason as the all-seeing, all-knowing Santa.
I'm thinking about Tate's book. Specifically, I've been reading WEDDING PLANNING FOR DUMMIES as well as thinking about pagan traditions. She and Sebastian are having a December wedding (in honor of Shawn and I, actually. Our anniversary is December 1). I was thinking, though, that I might actually hitch them on Solstace, as it's the longest night of the year -- v. appropriate for a vampire. Plus, since all their "traditional" plans are going to fall through thanks to the curse Sebastian's ex-wife places on Garnet, it'd be a neat last scene to have friends and family keeping vigil with a bonfire for the sun all night long as part of their reception.
Speaking of which, happy longest night of the year.

Date: 2008-01-02 07:43 pm (UTC)I just wanted to direct you towards http://offbeatbride.ning.com/ and the accompanying book "Offbeat Bride". Theres a whole lotta handfasting going on on that forum, and a subforum for "witchy brides", as well as any other kind of unusual bride. Some of the girls are pretty traditional...but theres definalty a lot of people who go waaaay off the beaten path to.
Ok, I'll stop with the stalking now and go shred another small rainforest for the corporate machein.
