yes i know my dear, i was simply being willfully dense.
I find all the legends and whatnot fascinating, i just don't know them so well as you do.
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

Well, if you can't be nerdy here then I don't know where you can. Except a library. Only then you've got to be mouse quiet nerdy and that's just no fun.
I don't know which one to choose. There are so many! I don't want to be someone icky or evil, but from the looks of it maybe they all had a bit of that. Which one was the goddess of chocolate? or dessert or sugar ... the junk food goddess? cause that would be cool.

I just thought you'd like Hecate for the ghosts stuff, and carrying two torches wouldn't be too hard to pull off. We could find those things with the little lights and the fans that blow the strips of paper so they look like fire.
I didn't know about the spiteful bits, I don't think of you that way. I think you're right though, If you dig deep enough you can likey find something that someone would consider icky about each of them.
I'll look into the Goddess of chocolate and sweets, cause that would fit. 'Less it's Dark Chocolate.

"But you sleep like a ghost with me
It's as simple as that
So tell me I'm mad
Roll me up and breathe me in
Come to my madness
My opium den
Come to my madness
Make sense of it again."

so based on the way the guys from that quote were talking -
"that celebrate the gods and goddesses of love and luxury, joy and happiness, compassion,
peace and serenity, healing, and fertility of the body and imagination."
I think you're back at Aphrodite, maybe, really, its kind of a mixture of all the god and goddesses in the Greek canon, so why don't you go with Gaia?
In her indina incarnation - http://www.chocolatedeities.com/about.php?deity=devi
and Greek, though thats not such a fun description, you'd have to see what the theoi site says - http://www.godchecker.com/pantheon/greek-mythology.php?deity=GAIA

for some reason the discription under the godchecker link reminds me of the Seven kami of Japanese myth. and Amaterasu and Onnotangu -- Lord Moon and Lady Sun

Seryn-don't mind me, I'm just in my nerdy element, 'tis all! Mythology makes me go all tingly and wiggly inside, like languages and chocolate do.
Last night, I was cutting up a pomegranate (they were on sale last week at the store!!) My cousin had never had one, so I was letting him try it, and as I was popping all the seeds out, I told him the story of Persephone, because he didn't know it. He loved the pomegranate. We were eating seeds like candy. YUM!
Mai: I LOVE libraries. All those books! And the smell. It's sexy. I worked at a library once. I liked being around the books. I didn't like the mean librarians and the leering man with the comb-over who ran the place, but I liked being around the books.

Not sure why but I feel there's a negative connotation attached to Morpheus (not that i mind negative, as i am rather so). I've always liked Hephaestus since I first became interested in Greek mythology around 5th grade. I feel I relate to him in some strange fashion.

Well, you're the only one that can chose the god that you like best. So, read up on them. There's SO many! And then you chose. It'll be FUN!
I feel bad for Hephaestos. He was obviously a hard worker. He made Zeus' thunderbolts and most everybody else's weapons. He is said to have had a nasty temper, though. But can you blame him? His wife slept with half of Asia Minor!

Good News, I've got tommorrow off work!
Bad News, It's so I can go to the funeral.
More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.
