hanging my tomorrows on the bones of yesterday

There's so much to do with the end of the year ritual that also corresponds with the ritual of the dead/passed on. So many cultures have rituals that are sometimes similar, sometimes divergent to seem unrelated

I've got my Samhain Mass lurking on my to-do list. If you're interested in delving into this subject a lot, we could bounce ideas off of each other and move both our projects forward. Of course I won't include the mass music in our discussions -- I have four of the five parts for the Ordinary of the Mass, only missing the Credo, but getting that libretto written would help me a lot in realizing this, my second pagan mass. That's all I'm missing for the Beltane mass too, though it's farther along in the musicc.

There must be "productive in the air -- I've got almost all of the Zen Room closet sorted out, repacked in boxes that aren't going to blow away from a heavy exhale, and managed to purge four boxes of stuff and get one of my electric guitar cases into it. I'm also putting together my live music effects rack, though that's taking a lot of sighted help right now, and I fixed my CD ripper, found some electronics parts I misplaced, and got some things worked out with my live keyboard rig. And there's more coming, great stuff.

I can't wait to experience that duster.
