In this time of winter solstice and festive good cheer... I'm still out-of-work, still job-hunting, still coping with writer's block the size of Wisconsin, and coping with the recent loss of a beloved pet cat... Poor Page...
In this grey mood on a grey day, I realize I haven't yet sent Saturn my Saturnalia Wish List. I know this is a tad rushed, but here goes:
- Wishing for a full-time job as a librarian assisting people with research needs;
- Wishing for an election primary that ends with the Republicans putting up for 2012 the WORST possible Far Right Wingnut candidate... whadda ya mean, Gingrich is slipping in the polls? Anyway, a GOP candidate so reviled by the moderate and independent voters that massive turnout for Democrats overturn the GOP-controlled House and keeps Obama in the White House for another four years;
- Wishing that the superhero movies scheduled for 2012 don't suck;
- Wishing that Mayans return to our world and carve out a replacement calendar so that the doomsayers ranting about Dec. 22, 2012 being the END OF ALL TIME will shut it (dudes, it's the end of the fourth or fifth Mayan calendar: it just means there's no Mayans left to carve out another one!).
There, I hope this helps, O Saturn, in determining just how wacky the next year is gonna be.
Can I get a Io Saturnalia from you seven readers?
EDIT: I TOTALLY FORGOT THIS! My bad, Saturn, there's one more thing this Unitarian Pagan is hoping fer...
Wishing for the new MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic! Oh man, the chance to play a Jedi Knight again... ooooooooooooh yeah...

Doesn't this take OpenID...?
