So. Y’all ought to know by now I am of the witchy persuasion. Kitchen, candle, and divination focused with a dash of just being more crafty than witchcrafty.

I am stupidly depressed right now. I’ve no idea why, but literally I feel like I’m too depressed to function properly. I don’t want to eat. I’m forcing myself to hydrate.

1. Alice in Wonderland, because it was the first book I learned to read and the first book I remember being read to me.
2. The Clan of the Cave Bear series: I’ve read it dozens of times.
3. Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. I read it every December because I remember my Daddy reading it aloud as a little one.

I have one: Mrs. White.
She was my first grade teacher and spanked me for reading. I got moved into a second grade class, then third when my reading and writing skills surpassed that of my peers. She didn’t get fired, but she did actively try to get me in trouble.
I also skipped fifth grade, I think? Maybe it was sixth. It that’s another story.
