About me:

I'm Wendy, a "Wednesday child", and since childhood have been drawn to darker aesthetics.
Nicknamed Wednesday by Grandpa (and if he was really trying to get my attention he'd say 'Wednesday Thursday! Friday!!')


You will find me charming, eclectic, and a bit odd. I get on with most people but if you get on my crap list you may find yourself a toad! I adore black velvet and wear it often. I have a wide variety of interests- reading being one of the main ones. One can never have enough books- just have to figure out where to put 'em all! Then there are cemeteries, styles of days gone by, oddities, things bizarre and colorful- including people!.
A constant student of life, book, and arcane knowledge, I am very eclectic. I enjoy people watching- it is amazing what you can learn just by observation, try it sometime. I am actively engaged in living authentically and believe in seeking my bliss, doing as I will, and I don't apologize for my attitude, point of view or for attaining my desires!



I have carefully put this page together hoping to give the viewer an insight to all the complexities that when put together give the viewer some insight into me. I love all the things here and the style most definately reflects me and my life~so I hope you enjoy it!
Peculiar things about me include~ I can wiggle my nose (yes-just like on Bewitched), My Great Great Uncle was a crew member on the USS Cyclops which vanished in the Bermuda Triangle Area. I have had up close encounters with Spirits and a visit from an Angel (same one- twice)







I currently reside near Los Angeles, California with my husband Jeff, our 7 Cats, and a Turtle. I am back in school, my major being History, Minor Anthropology. In addition to those courses I keep up on my magical education with classes and workshops on things like Hoodoo, and Tarot. I am passionate about learning and love school. I also have a passion for photography, it has become my chosen artistic expression. As with most things my photos tend to have odd or dark topics. Cemeteries are one of my most favorite photo topics of course. Many of the pictures I use are my own, Please enjoy looking at my photos but PLEASE do not take or use them without permission as they belong to me and are protected under law as such.










My Blog here is called 'Bell Book and Coffee'~ I no longer post to it. You can find my personal blog at www.wednesdaysattic.com I maintain 3 blogs, the other two are The Gothic Tea Society www.gothicteasociety.com , and November Obscura- my photography blog which you can find on Blogspot under November Obscura. I can not post the link here because MySpace blocks it, sorry... . I no longer blog here because MySpace censors way too much (see aformentioned example!).
~ COMMENTS-I used to be able to comment all my friends every week, but alas due to the Myspace capchas it has become too time consuming- so I am now going to resort to sending comments to those who are kind enough to send them to me. I always send a comment when I add someone. My comments tend to be large with both words and pictures and can be on any subject- if for some reason you find the subject matter distasteful just delete it- dont complain about it please. See my blog or some of my friends pages for examples. . If I sent out a comment that you did not get, please drop me a line and I will be happy to get it to you. I remain very flattered that I actually get requests for my comments~





I have two wonderful, smart, creative and beautiful adult daughters who are each very individual and definite 'out of the box' thinkers.

I am absolutely a cat person. We have 7 cats- Thomas- an Orange cat with no tail (he lost it in a fight with a Truck),
Sammy- a 17 pound long haired Siamese- Sammy likes to lay down ON you not near you,
Missy- Black and White basic cat model number 4 with rabbit fur option,
Jack- Black and White magical cat with the question mark tail who enjoys being upside down,
Pyewacket- we call her Wacky-striped grey, black top with white under, and gold underfur- (thats like underwear for cats) she is high strung and skittish and just wacky!,
and her sister Moon- solid black cat with gold eyes- she likes to talk, announce her presence when she enters a room and run away randomly at any move to touch her. And our newest Mac. he is very large and solid grey. We adopted him from my daughters. He is a very good natured kitty and is becoming more comfortable with his new brothers and sisters.

I collect books on Cemeteries, Gravemarkers and Anthropology, Archaeology, Religions, and Death customs, practices and rituals. I also have a large collection of Day of the Dead, and Retro Halloween memorabillia, Including a large collection of Witches. More of what I like can be found over there on that side of the page <---







I have been an avid Taphophile and Cemetery lover since I can remember. Cemeteries, Gravestones, Death Art, Death customs and ritual practices around the world are a lifelong obsession of mine. I am annoyed by people who spell CEMETERY incorrectly. There is NO 'A' in Cemetery!








I am a long time student and practitioner of the Occult and HPs of Forest House Coven. I have been involved with Witchcraft for many years. I am not Wiccan, but practice a more traditional (as I see it) and eclectic style of the craft. I employ both dark and light 'arts' toward obtaining my goals. I am a firm believer in seeking, finding and using one's own power. I walk with confidence on my own path and make my own magic.

I find myself saddened and fed up at todays witchy wannabees. I have met very few who take the Craft seriously and are willling to take the time to learn. Rather, they want the name tag and to dabble in casting spells. I won't even go into the fluff bunnies, fast track degree seekers, and B.S.ers all over the 'net with their claims of power and magic. I have a blog written about the 'Super Witches' of the internet already.
