Rowan's Journal
Mostly candid thought
Name:Rowan Golightly
Website:http://www.queens-gambit.com
Location:near Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States
Birthdate:1954-08-12
Bio:I am a performer, entertainer, a midwesterner transplanted from Kansas to Oklahoma, Yankee by birth and inclination. I'm a singer, performer, musician, lover, wife, artist, healer, friend, witch, cook, priestess and energy worker. I'm a double preachers' kid which explains quite a bit.

I've done Renaissance Festivals going on 31 years now; having done everything from lady-in-waiting to queen to fighting wench and now musician in a Celtic band called "Queen's Gambit" and back to queen again, sometimes. Performing at faires has helped make me who I am more than any other single thing. I used to have a Bridal sewing business until I got burned out; I used to have a custom Costume business until I got burned out this last year. Now I still sew for a living but am turning to a web-based business. I used to do Living Statues but haven't set that up since I moved south to live with the most wonderful man who stole me away from Kansas City.

My Beloved and were married September 2, 2007 at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival on the anniversary of when and where we met, surrounded by our friends, chosen family and Loves. I'm committed to living right out loud and with intention; I'm poly and pagan and bi and happy to be so. I'm loving and happy and positive but I also have a temper and I can bite with very little warning, I am a Leo afterall with Aquarius Moon and Scorpio Rising. I'm candid and open and say exactly what I mean; you want an opinion, be prepared for it to be an honest one. I have no patience for whiners or control freaks, for those who are closed-minded, arrogant, those who wallow or those who play head games. Other than that, I'm Mary-fucking-Poppins most of the time...a menopausal Mary Poppins which should scare some folk.

And contrary to what a few folk think, I'm not proselytizing for polyamory, but rather attempting to educate those who wish to learn about it. This is a wonderful web-site for anyone who is in a relationship of any kind, even just with themselves! This is the best poly web-site I've found and the one to which I refer everyone who has questions:

Here's another nifty poly informational site:
http://polyweekly.com/

That's probably about enough. Oh, yes...I have a huge flist and friend most folk but I won't put up with whining, gossip, petty drama or long posts without a courtesy cut. Most of my posts are 'friends only' because I'm so very candid about my life. If you wanna read about me, cool, but if you piss me off, you're gone. Ok? Ok...

One more thing: about this new adult filter that LJ has just automagically instituted; a bit too close to book-burning and thought police to me. I'd much prefer if parents would parent and adults would act as such. I reserve the right to say FUCK and if anybody wants to get their panties in a wad about it, they can go ahead and try to censor me. Try. I decided not set this journal to the "adult" setting but we'll see how this goes. I DO NOT support the new ability LJ has given people to "flag" posts based on whether they think content is appropriate or not. So there.


Of course, since I'm a Leo, I love adore presents:
