After schlepping the wedding party around for much of the day Friday, I had a little time to chill out at home and have some dinner before the OTO booksale. There I met ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
linearb, who had all sorts of dirt about the place where hub works. I also found out that 'linearb' is pronounced 'linear B' rather than 'line arb' *blush*. I picked up a couple of books that looked interesting; one about astrological mythology and another called 'The Tao of Leadership' which looks to be an easy read, and could give me some insight into the occasionally conflicted relationship I have with the notion that I am a leader since I am the HPS of my grove. I've become a leader willingly but somewhat reluctantly, and there's a lack of confidence there sometimes or the notion that I'm not really qualified to lead. I still feel less like a leader most days and more like an organizer, but I have to accept that people will look to me as a leader and stop getting weirded out when that happens (or freaked out when it occurs outside of a Wiccan context, which happens often enough but always surprises me).
contentlove was there and read selections from the awkwardly-titled 98 Percent of the People You Know and Love Are in Dangerous Sexual Situations. This was written by a Jack-Chick sort of fellow who is obviously pretty repressed. He explains how you should teach your children from a young age that YOUR SEXUALITY IS NOT A GIFT FROM GOD!!! and go over this with them every 3 months, along with all the steps to ensure that they stay out of dangerous sexual situations, which is defined as basically any sexual situation that you might have a chance of deriving pleasure from. @@ Very sad if you think about it deeply, but to hear Content read it in the very dramatic way she did was absolutely hysterical. This author wrote up some pretty lurid tales of men and women getting themselves into trouble. I mean there was positively obsessive details and descriptions of the sexual 'perversions' these poor doomed souls engaged in. In case you are wondering, if you get killed in a car wreck, it's likely that it was because you had some flavor of naughty sex and you deserved it.
We got home around 10 and Karen came over- she had not seen the house since our wedding in 2000 and we've made quite a few changes. I had thought she might bring some others with her, but everyone was pretty pooped and she was alone. We talked for a little while, but she was also tired and left after not too long; understandable since she was getting married the next day.
P.S. It's odd that the LJ spell checker knows 'schlepping' but not 'Wicca.'
