Day 44: happy lady day

So, Friday 13th is supposed to be unlucky largely because Friday is Freya's day, the day of the goddess, and 13 is one of her sacred numbers, for the 13 moons in a year, and because Christianity wanted to get rid of the goddess as much as possible. So I consider Friday 13th "Lady Day", because it's a double-goddess day.
(Hence today's title)

So, today's picture.
So, on Day 36, there was that date ... I've been on a few more dates with that boy, and we're officially dating now. So, on Thursday he gave me this drawing he'd done. He was showing off some of his art (some of which is REALLY cool-looking), and when I was leaving his house, he picked this one up and gave it to me, because I liked it. So I put a ribbon on it and hung it on my wall Thursday night, and in the morning I took the picture.

It's a piece of wood with canvas covering part of it (the canvas ends with the wing), done in chalk.

  1. Yay for paganness, and the Goddess, and Friday the 13th! And for dating and artsy boys ;)

    I really like the colors and the feel of both your photograph of the picture and the picture. It's just. . . neat.
