(Not) living life to the fullest

So I've basically reduced my blog posts to my sideblog and responding to Christine's blog posts, but whatever, it works.

So yes, I also had reading ambitions this summer. Though, they weren't as specific as Christine's... my goal was basically to read a book sometime during my school-less months. And sometimes at night I think, hey! I should read right now! But then my brain's all like,


But yeah, it's probably been a month since I started watching Supernatural and I'm almost through Season 7. Even in my twisted world view, I know that I have a problem. Do I plan to do anything about said problem? Ehh.

But on the bright side, I guess I'm learning a lot about folk lore from different cultures? I think (or would like to think) that a lot of the lore is accurate to various cultures. For example, in the series the only way to kill a vampire was to decapitate it, which is based upon German and western Slavic lore. Also, salt is seen as a purification substance in both Wiccan and Shinto (and slightly in Christian variations, like in holy water sometimes). So at least it's not all crap?
