Welcome to Castle Weird'nstein, a.k.a. Castle Skull 'n' Bones... a.k.a. Castle Doom & Gloom! Please do park your conveyance (flying or otherwise) in the stables or courtyard, then come in the double doors, take your shoes off, and make yourself comfy in front of the fire. I'll go pour us some potables and put on some tunes.

Me: Here on SH for the music (for which you can blame HIM). Romantic, stubborn, non-doctrinaire, freethinking info-junkie; organized bohemian; not like the other girls. Sweet but deadly ;)


For me "family values" evokes something far, far spookier than the occult or Hallowe'en. O.o May your mileage differ!

"Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from a religious conviction." Blaise Pascal

" What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead."
James 2:14-17 ; New Testament

(Which makes me not dead, yet. ;)

Deus Caritas Est -S/He also kicks butts, if need be ;)

G-d doesn't fit in a box. Neither do I. Here is (* my 'heretical statement of faith";), S/He gave me a brain and reasoning powers and I see no shame in using them.


"and the truth shall set you free" Yeshua of Nazareth.

"I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way." Mark Twain.

Having idols is against my religion... but it's hard to create without a muse. Being a little insatiable I have more than one! Unt zo I vould like to meet my muses, in person.

Here are the 2 secondaries - morbid, maybe but these two talented loons give me hope. :) The 2 highly annoying :) but ridiculously talented primaries are further down.

DJ'ing this cheery monstrosity (-:
e.V.'s Underground on Facebook


in no especial order: researching, writing & reading, production (radio, event, theatre), writing (lyrics & poetry, music, radio scripts, investigative journalism), photography, camping, music (writing, singing, listening, playing).

Drinking this stuff!


Playing my "baby":


Being randomly possessed and tormented by my two lovely but exceedingly annoying primary muses!

"My HIMphetamine Boy..".

"Sick and weak from my condition
This lust, this vampyric addiction
To HIM alone in full submission
None better...
HIMphetamine"

(Well, never *full* submission. I'm much too stubborn and level headed to go along with *that* sort of nonsense! XD No, not even for you, two.)
