We participated in the Earth hour this evening, shutting off all the lights in the house for a little over 60 minutes. Ariana lit candles while TJ and I tried to make homemade glow stick-stuff from Mountain Dew, baking soda, and hydrogen peroxide. Our little experiment didn't work, even though I watched the YouTube video again just before shutting off my computer. Ariana, being her usual helpful self, offered suggestions and even tried to make some in a cup. Nothing we tried worked. So, I'm going to look up some other ideas on how to make luminescence and we'll try those. TJ was a great sport about the whole thing and worried that I might be feeling bad because it hadn't worked.
After a bit of family chatting and very bad jokes, I decided to try a little isometric-like wrestling with him. Both Ariana and I gave him pointers on how to stand and brace against me, then we shoved at each other. For a pre-teen, the kid is strong! After he about strained my upper arm, I showed him how to do hand pushes, which is an isometric exercise. All three of us did some until TJ complained that his arms hurt. I told him we'll do more each day, which will be good for all of us. I want to build my arms and hands back up so I can give Ariana more and better massages. It's part of my over-all improvement program.

About Me

- Artificer Extraordinaire
Magick. Mechanics. Mesmerism. Mayhem.
Let it be known: where others see circuitry, the Artificer sees sigils.
Where chaos screams, they measure the pulse.
They conjure resonance from wreckage.
They build the ritual interface between flesh, thought, and whisper.
They do not tame mayhem — they socket it into meaning.
Mesmerism is not dominance — it is resonance in motion.
It is the art of whispering to the body through story, symbol, breath, and space.
Where mechanics end and magick ignites, mesmerism begins.
Mayhem comes later.
