Happy St. Marcel of Paris Day

Nov 01, 2003

Happy St. Marcel of Paris Day. He is the saint to be invoked in case of vampire attack. Honest. Some of the coolest stuff I don’t have to make up, because it’s just the truth. Unfortunately for St. Marcel of Paris (You’ve got to add the Paris part because there are several St. Marcels) he also shares the day with the Feast of All Saints. I mean how cheap is that, that he has to share his one special day with everybody else. Anyway, I am finally over the two hundred page mark, and happy with it. Finally.
I am still listening to Christmas music, in fact my husband (tech wizard that he is) has made me an mp3, or maybe a cd, he’d have to explain the difference to you, of about thirty different versions of CAROL OF THE BELLS. The near franticness of the carol just seemed to fit my mood when I was stuck in character depression hell. We’ve moved past that, all my imaginary friends are feeling better, or at least coping better. Which makes me feel better. Funny, that. Though better, for the forseable future it will be Christmas music. I’m bouncing between two different Mormon Tabernacle Choir albums and the cd my husband made for me with CAROL OF THE BELLS. Until I stop listening to Christmas music, I won’t really be doing well with the book. Christmas music means that it is still slow, and I still need that emotional comfort. Ah, well.
By the way, did you know that CAROL OF THE BELLS is originally a Ukranian New Year’s Day song. Not a Christmas carol at all when it began.
Well, I need to get back to making pages on the book, so I’m off for now. Happy St. Marcel’s Day, happy All Saints Day, and for those of you who are Wiccan, happy new year. If there are any holidays I’ve missed, e-mail the fan club and let me know. Bye for now.
