What Would You Do for a Klondike Bar?

I meant to post this up ages ago.  You know, in the middle of summer, not August.  August is an awful month - there's just nothing I can say about it.  It's the dullest month of the year, and that's a fact.  But you know what?  Ice cream makes even August better.  Especially Klondike bars.


Prayers to the Roman Gods: Pluto

Poor Pluto.  First Disney makes him into a villain, then he loses his planet.  He just gets no respect.  I bet he cries himself to sleep every night, with his gold pajamas and all.


The Seven Wonders: The Lighthouse of Alexandria

And so begins a new series!  I'm still working on the Roman gods, but I had this idea and thought it would be interesting, so I'm doing it at the same time.

I don't plan on all of this series ending with some pithy moral; it'll be more like telling a story about the wonders.  But that last line worked particularly well, I think.


Prayers to the Roman Gods: Juno

Juno, protector of women!  I felt rather weird writing this one - I'm hardly in her domain, am I?  Still, I do hope it came out well.


Prayers to the Roman Gods: Bacchus

Honestly, I prefer my Hymn to Bacchus to this.  Much easier to sing when drinking, in my opinion.


Prayers to the Roman Gods: Diana

I really need to try harder to update as soon as I get these done.  Anyway, here's the noble huntress and lady of the moon herself, Diana, better known as Artemis!
