Last night I dreamed of living in my childhood home and being a teenager in school again. But the school was directly across the street and it was an intergalactic school for magic. Unfortunately, there was some kind of pitch black (as in the movie Pitch Black with Vin Deisil) alien/demon shapeshifting thing after me (which I think followed me from another dream prior). I knew it was after me, so I was running all over the place trying to avoid it. When I felt I had escaped it, I asked my mom to write me a note to explain why I was late for school. I walked across the street to the school which was all glass in the front. They were very irritated with my lateness, but buzzed me in and accepted my note. But as I was walking down a hall, I saw the thing that was chasing me sitting on a leather sofa. I couldn’t tell anyone it was evil because they wouldn’t believe me, and besides, it was an intergalactic school for magic. Weirdness was to be expected I suppose.

I hope no one was too distressed about the absence of the Ancient Whispers newsletter these past few weeks. Between work, migraines, and something awful I did to my neck, I just couldn’t get it finished. But the newsletter is back, and just in time for Samhain. So enjoy the article and the jokes in the spirit of the season. The craft of the week may save you a bit of money… it’s homemade face painting recipe. In the sites of interest, you’ll find many links for face painting and pumpkin carving.
