The Cosmic Cat: December 2014
http://shannonhilsonspiritual.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Written Ramblings of a Spiritual Seeker. Saturday, December 27, 2014. On Advent and Christmas Festivities. Holiday time quickly morphed into something I downright dreaded. Like a lot of people, I didn't feel like I had much to celebrate at Christmas time, so that was usually the time of year I felt the most depressed. The idea of presents and such had long ago ceased to mean much to me. I absolutely hated. Enjoyed. I completed a few Advent-themed Bible reading plans as well. Of course we watched ...Im a ...

The Cosmic Cat: November 2011
http://shannonhilsonspiritual.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Written Ramblings of a Spiritual Seeker. Saturday, November 12, 2011. On Karma and Its Care and Feeding. In the end though, I suppose all we can really do is try. Little things make a big difference, I think, because they add up. It may take 100 pennies to equal a dollar, but. hey, a dollar, right? Here are some of the pennies I try to collect when I see them lying around. I'm only human, so sometimes I do decide it's not worth it and just forget the damn penny, but like I said. I try. I'm not good on a ...

The Curious Cat: September 2014
http://shannonhilsonblog.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
The Personal Blog of a Free-Spirited Thinker. Monday, September 22, 2014. At the Threshold of the Fall Equinox. Tomorrow is the equinox, so I guess it will officially be fall at long last. I can't even express how happy that makes me. It's time for cooler weather and nice, long nights. It's time to read Dracula. And watch horror movies. It's time for big steaming homemade bowls of stew, and soup, and chili. Go I can tell you right now that at 38 years old, I don't regret my lack of fucks given about the ...

The Cosmic Cat: Ember Days and the Fall Equinox
http://shannonhilsonspiritual.blogspot.com/2014/09/ember-days-and-fall-equinox.html
Written Ramblings of a Spiritual Seeker. Friday, September 26, 2014. Ember Days and the Fall Equinox. The Fall Equinox was earlier this week - Tuesday, to be exact. I guess that means we can now officially say summer is over. Although summer is easily my least favorite season of the entire year, I've been doing my best not to say I hate. Enjoy my summer this year. Don't get me wrong though. I'm still really glad it's fall. Been really helpful, especially since its clued me into the existence of events I ...

The Cosmic Cat: April 2012
http://shannonhilsonspiritual.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Written Ramblings of a Spiritual Seeker. Friday, April 6, 2012. Exploring the Truth About the Sun Signs. I have no idea if what I'm about to talk about is something other astrology enthusiasts notice or even care about. However, I do notice it's something I rarely see talked about on blogs similar to mine. I hate. no, really. hate. Not so much. They get enough reality checks in their day to day lives. As a result, people happily spend a ton of their energy running away. Why astrology sites are written th...

The Culinary Cat: July 2013
http://shannonhilsonculinary.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Thoughts on Cooking, Eating, and Writing About Food. Tuesday, July 16, 2013. My First McNuggets as an Adult. McNuggets and fries with BBQ sauce. awwww, yeah! The types of food that most kids thought were manna from heaven. Bologna and American cheese sandwiches with yellow mustard? Oh, hell no. Macaroni and cheese? Don't make me barf. Chef Boyardee canned pastas? You had to be kidding me. Other favorite options like pizza, hot dogs, and grilled cheeses got maybe a "meh" reaction from me at best. Well, of...

Thoughts on Cooking, Eating, and Writing About Food. Monday, August 20, 2012. The Politics of Ketchup. The Ever-Present Ketchup Cups. It's not like he won't. Eat something without ketchup, but he does strongly, strongly prefer to eat it with. I'm the exact opposite as far as my personal feelings go. I don't have an issue with other people liking ketchup, but I strongly dislike it myself (along with most commonly used condiments). In fact, I will not. It's like I want to crack skulls or something. The fun...

Written Ramblings of a Spiritual Seeker. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Looking on the Bright Side. Somehow, even though I've yet to really set aside the time to make my public blogs all I would truly like them to be, I appear to have readers at all three of them, which is something of a motivator. I'm more concerned with posting regularly in blogs once I realize other people actually give a shit whether or not I'm posting, as opposed to feeling like I'm just chattering away to myself. Gradually becoming more s...

Written Ramblings of a Spiritual Seeker. Saturday, August 27, 2011. On Mercury, Labors of the Mind, and Other Things. Yeah burn in hell, Mercury. By now, you've probably noticed that I really do try to take a casual, "don't sweat it" approach to difficult astrological concepts like Mercury retrograde. This last period really made it hard though! The past three weeks or so turned out to be pretty much the most difficult Merc retro period I've had in a long, long time. possibly ever. Additionally, there wa...
