Heh. I had to look that up. I've heard that song hundreds of times but never listened to the lyrics.

don't feel like you have to make a corn dolly!

that's the important thing: That wolf feels no pressure to make a corn dolly.

None.

Zip.

Nada.

No pressure.

I am absolutely capable of making a corn dolly, in fact I make a mean corn dolly, just don't have any corn handy.

What I don't know how to do is make one of those brigid's cross thingies, although I'm sure there are instructions some there.

I love Lugh ... Lugnis ... uh, Lammas, because it means that Summer is heading toward a close and I might be able to turn the AC off sometime in the near future, like after Samhain.

I hope my countless sleepless nights waiting for it to come and poke out my eyes sit uneasily on your karma, or your bladder or whatever...

Me, too. I love August thru November.

Dec. is too stressful and Jan thru March (and half of April) are Suicide Prevention Months in Ohio.
