The whole witches thing, is an entire other kettle of fish, as that word means very different things, depending on time-period and country.
It's difficult to explain witches in Galicia because we have at least 4 words I can think of that mean "witch", each one being a different kind of witch (a good witch, a malicious witch, a healer and an enchantress).
But to resume we have the myth of the benefic witch who is a mysterious and wise woman with helpful magic and the one who curses people at her will. Both aren't very differentiated anyway.They have always been very present in Galician folklore and had been as feared as revered.
As most people couldn't afford a real doctor or wasn't one avaliable witches were the ones who practiced medicine in towns (they were just women with some practical knowledge but they were said to have magic).
Good morning everybody, by the way. I didn't get enough sleep again.

I went to the bank the other day. After completing my transactions, I asked the teller if she could check my balance. So she pushed me over.
Ha I did that to my brother once very similar circumstance. This makes me happy I could recreate this joke without knowing of it.

Not posting this for sympathy, or to be a downer, but because it's easier to talk to (mostly) strangers than to my actual family and friend on Facebook.
And mostly to see a show of hands, has anybody ever felt this way? Or am I, as my mother says, just too weird and making things too complicated?
Arthritis pain has been really, really bad these last few days.
And I look "normal", for a given value of what looks "normal" when you're 42 and addicted to work. (Yes, I always look tired and strung out.)
So I'm experimenting with a new cosplay-inspired outfit, which will either be tolerably fabulous or a trainwreck, and which will be totally inappropriate for the day's activities, because when I just feel bad, I go frumpy, but when I feel truly horrible, I dress up. Sometimes way too much.
So I'm going for "River-Song-ISH", because while I have the hair, it's the wrong color, and every time I've tried to dye it, (three so far), it's turned bright orange and temporarily lost its curl, which I have promised myself and signed in blood to never ever ever do again.
And since every time I write something personal that I actually think is kind of funny, I can pretty much hear the Crickets of Awkward chirping on the thread, well, let's just say that I apologize in advance.I wholeheartedly approve of anything you need to do to drown out the pain cosplay wise, save perhaps the fact that it is whedon related cosplay.
Have you considered non whedon related cosplay? I hear it leads to increased health, brighter, shinier hair, larger tax returns, better gas mileage for your vehicles, and happier FreeholdDMs.
River SONG, not River Tam. Very, VERY different character.
And not even vaguely Whedon related.
One of my favorite quotes:

I am ashamed that I have attached whedon to something non whedon related. I beg your forgiveness.

My forgiveness is hard-won, Freehold. In fact, you may need to say something nice about Alton Brown in order to win it.

you don't look a thing like lisamarlene, but if it will help, I think Alton Brown would taste wonderful after being drowned in a three day marinade.

A guy walks into a bar, pulls out a pistol, and shouts "I've got a 1911 Colt .45 Automatic with seven rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber, and I want to know WHO'S BEEN SLEEPING WITH MY WIFE!!!"
A voice from the back of the bar calls out "You're gonna need more ammo."
FIFY
Also I like that one i'm going to use that one.

What about his Barbies Dreamhouse! You're going to ruin his daughter's birthday if the Barbies Dreamhouse isn't assembled!If she wants to read the scroll too, I'll give her a burger. No fries for either of you though. And no toppings other than a small squidge of catsup.No fries? I am so NOT assembling your pool now.
I will set up the barbie dream house. That is just the right thing to do frankly.
