One of the great spiritual truths I've gleaned from my Pagan path is that the Wheel of the Year offers a good model for timing some of life's bigger tasks that are not directly tied to religious liturgy or agrarian life. One of the things I have been doing annually between the Autumn Equinox and Samhain is taking stock of my life, cataloguing the wins and losses over the course of the year, celebrating goals achieved and identifying new opportunities for spiritual growth.
OK, New Years' Resolutions are somewhat universal, and in a way, this is exactly that.

Daily Bloggery 2009-05-14
Assorted stuff today:
1. Tonight I see my Goddessdaughter, read her books and have dinner there.
2. WoW: Last night one of Gwenny's toons got one of the major meta-achievements: The Burning Crusade. This comes from raising all dungeon factions in Outland (site of the Burning Crusade expansion set from early 2007) to the maximum. It is a long hard road to get there, quite an accomplishment.
I like running with Gwenny.
Found an interesting forum post this morning. GREAT advice on how to pick talents, enchant, gem, gear and play a Enhancement shaman raider in WoW.
3. SGLs good, got enough sleep last night.

What Am I Thankful For?
A very partial list . . .
Physical: A great job, a roof over my head, enough cash to pay the bills, bandwidth and the means to use it.
Social: Mom, Dad, Ron, Sophia and Sam. Friends like Michelle, David, Kayla, Matt, Richard, Sammy, Duncan, Isabel, Tim, Kate, Sue, Rachael, Don, Rob, Kajir, Heather, Dave, Diane, Gene, Aries, Nika, Mystique, Harley, Rita, Bug, Shalyn and Hillary.
Other: An awesome health care team led by Dr. Nelson . . . the fact that the evil that is Shrub will be out of office in about a year . . . RT and e-Tran . . . PCJ and Panera . . .the music that helped save my life this year: Seanan McGuire, The Elders, Emerald Rose, Leslie Fish, James Blunt, Tempest, Escape Key, Flogging Molly, Roy Zimmerman, Loreena Mckinnett, Niel Young and Weird Al Yankovic.
Media: Serenity / Firefly, D&D, World of Warcraft.

Random Bursts of Bandwidth
1. The most sinister day of the year: International Left Handers' Day
2. Speaking of sinister, Karl Rove resigns as Shrub's political director effective at the end of August. Fortunately, Sen. Leahy (Senate Judiciary Committee) isn't buying.
The movie line that came to mind is " . . . always two, there are."
3. Today's selection from the Voices In My Head Chorus (Earworm) comes from Stevie Nicks
4. Strangeness: The World's Cutest Two Year Old™ and Her Mom™ met me for coffee at Starbucks this morning. *$s is within bike riding distance for the aforementioned Mom and Kid and walking distance from my place. While *$s is the Walmart of coffee shops, you can always count on eclectic music you've never heard before playing while sipping your choice of coffees (black, heavy French roast, the Guinness of Coffees. I was NOT in a mocha / latte / steam shot mood this morning). My preferred coffee shop is a bit further away for both Mom and Kid, has great Fair Trade / Organic coffee, very good food and local artwork for sale but the music they play is overproduced 70s-80s soft rock oldies from an XM Radio robo-station.
Go figure.
