I'm finding a lot of things funny lately, but I don't think they are.** |

| Bio: | ***"Friends" policy: I don't often check my "friends" list, so if you add me and you want me to add you, please comment in my journal. I am more likely to add you if you respond to the content and not just say "please add me" however. I may or may not "friend" you back. If you are a proponent of horse slaughter, have ever eaten horse meat, take Premarin (unless you don't know it kills horses...well it does so Make the Switch!) or support the slaughtering of horses in any way, don't bother friending me. I am a curmudgeon, easily pissed off by those who label eclectic practices "Celtic," "Gaelic," "Norse" or any cultural label that they are not and I feel that it's up to those in the cultures to syncretize or not...so historical syncretisms are great but don't be telling me about your Gaulish-Aztec tradition, mkay? I also swear a lot, supposedly LJ wants warnings about that sort of thing. Now they have that filter thing so fuck it***![]() 100% Free Personals from JustSayHi I'm a polytheist focused on Scottish Highland and Hebride culture, ban-fhiannaidh, Hillbilly survivalist, barbarian, writer, boss mare and all around raging, rabid, opinionated, savage alpha bitch. Any questions? Rumor has it that I got that whole Celtic Reconstructionist thing going, being the first to actually publicly use the term to describe a spiritual path back in '92. However, I no longer identify with the term as it is now used for something different than what I meant. I in no way endorse any CR claims by anyone. Yes, I am credited on the CR FAQ but I wrote little except for most of the women warrior thing...I couldn't let them say that women were commonly warriors because it just wasn't so as much as we might wish it. Other than that, please, no, just forget any mention of me at all. I have a BA in Celtic and Women's Studies which brought about the idea that I needed something based on the actual culture and mythology than what I had been practicing, I just never should have labeled it, that seems to cause movements and I don't like movements. Someday I might go to graduate school, but life is in the way right now and at this point I'd just rather become an EMT and a horse trainer. Should the Shit Hit The Fan, these skills will be more important than knowing Old Irish...and as it is I may be forced to learn French and Spanish soon anyway (you do NOT want to know why) and all other language skills may have to be on hold. I really sort of do make my living as a ban-fhiannaidh as well as professional fire-tender in the winter. ~;) Before that I was a reporter and photographer for a local paper, before that various other things...including my first career as a photojournalist. My mate, As well as my personal site (which needs MAJOR overhauling), which includes some of my writing, linked above I run a site for Pagan warrior women called Caithream and am always looking for new material for it. I run a Sacred Horse mailing list for Pagan horse enthusiasts as well. I can occasionally be found running around MySpace, where I am mostly involved in horse related politics and occasionally Tribe.net which turned out to be rather boring but I did make some contacts there so I still pop in. I founded and run the following LiveJournal communities: I also, uh, co-maintain, uh, yeah, that's it, Want to buy me stuff? Well, probably not, even though these would help me with some projects I'm working on, but this is the wishlist anyway.
