me when my computer was new: *gives computer its own room, carefully places pillows around, NOT blocking the fans of course, cleans interior every weekend, reads it bedtime stories and kisses it goodnight*

Goddess of the Day: October 23
Branwen - Welsh Goddess of Beauty and Love. One of the five Goddesses of Avalon, Branwen
translates as white raven, or white breasted. She is a Maiden Goddess of sovereignty,
springtime, and inspiration. The
daughter of the sea, Branwen releases mistreated wives from bondage, and
blesses them with a new beginning. She
is the embodiment of vitality and freedom.
Depicted as a beautiful young woman, Branwen is thought to be Venus, or
the Morning Star. All birds and the
waxing moon are Her symbols.

There were a pair of crows (don’t have ravens in Chicago, and in the U.S. they are distinct species) that were following me while I wrote I Bring the Fire. They’ve gone now. I kind of miss them.
