What I haven't been talking about recently in unfiltered posts is that I have been exploring what is apparently a previously unrecognized, untrained shamanic talent.
(And I thought it was just "weird stuff" I've been doing/experiencing since adolescence. But having an Otherworldly figure show up in my mind at the onset of puberty, set me off on a mythic journey of Walking Between Worlds, and continuing to be my companion and counselor for several decades should have been a tip-off, right?)
More about that later.
The immediate news flash is actually this: when working on shamanic trance technique, using an .mp3 of drumming, disable the Yahoo IM first. What I just found out, is that the Incoming Mail alert sounds like a Star Wars blaster going off -- especially when the volume is turned up because the drumming is rather soft and I'm sitting halfway across the room.
Have you ever had a trance state interrupted by a blaster going off unexpectedly in your living room?
It's not an experience I recommend.
I have a headache.

As for the rest of the post. This is one of the most adoreable things I have seen of late. It reminds me why I love you.
*hugs you and kisses your forehead
The stormtroopers are not coming to get you. *smile
I have had similar things happen. Such as my phone ringing, or most recently one of my friends changed his IM notice to sound like a circus clown. That got me bad the other day.
So in other words. This happens to me too.
