Someone gives you a compliment, and you blush, causing the world to warm.

I'm waiting for humans to write the myth that explains how I am able to thaw the world.

"Every April, the goddess Mathonwy has a REALLY bad hot flash and all of Gēyōmīna's snow melts away from the heat radiating off of Lady Spring's body."

Gēyōmīna: *sitting in the Divine Cafeteria eating lunch*
Me: *scoots up next to her to cut up my apple*
Gēyōmīna: ...Do you have to sit so close, Spring Wench? We're, like, mortal enemies.
Me: Oh, sorry, Lady Winter. I was having a hot flash. *sighs in relief, my breath evinced in the frosty air*

The lachrimae rerum gets to me sometimes. Sometimes I think, "I've lingered fairly long Under the Sun; maybe it's time to go home where the stars always shine above dim-eyed shades."

In that place Beyond the Sun, my eyes would shine again with divine brilliance and the flowers grow ever at my feet.

This is true. I've written two children's books that I was probably more proud of than even my 400-page novels and tetralogy epics, and I never received an iota of pleasant feedback about my children's literature.

Tough customers.

Writing good children's books is the most demanding genre

I bought wired earbuds to replace them. I am indeed Mathonwy the Luddite.

Some technology just isn't an improvement.

Normally I don't complain about products, but I've had Raycon earbuds for a couple of years now and they have NEVER worked right. They work fine for about 30 minutes at a time, and then they need to be resynced. They're my first pair of Bluetooth earbuds, so I didn't think much of it.

I used to joke in the 90s that every goth girl was allowed one 90s era female singer-songwriter to admire. Mine was Sarah McLachlan.

We definitely need more Lilith Fairs.

We uh, we need some more Lilith Fairs right now.

One of the fun things about trying every mortal religion I've encountered is that four different religions consider me an apostate and I've been excommunicated from one of them.

I'm speed-running spirituality and heresy.
