Lovely morning of shopping in the tiny town of Edenton, NC which is all decked out for Xmas.
Then a couple of salads at a little bistro on the Main Street. I had the best spinach salad. Followed by a couple more shops.
I struck out everywhere! I was looking for Nonpareils for James’ stocking but no one seems to sell them anymore. A couple places had snow caps but I wasn’t about to pay $2 for a box with 12 choc chips in it. Besides, I wanted the old timey kind. Oh well. Maybe we’ll find them when I’m not actively looking for them.
When we went to the antique store, the butthead bought the gift I was going to buy for his stocking! I knew he’d like it and she gave him a good price, so I can’t blame him, but gotdam, he’s gonna have an empty stocking if he doesn’t quit it!
Called it a day after a couple more places and went back to the Yukon to find a flock of berry-eating feathered bastards (yes, that’s an official bird name) had explosive diarrhea all over the hood. And it’s so cold today, it’s basically going to take a hot bath to get the damn truck clean.
Merry frickin’ Christmas!

August 21st 1798 saw the death of James Wilson, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States and a signatory of the United States Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution.
Wilson was born on September 14th 1742 at Carskerdo,Farm, near Ceres, the fourth of the seven children of Alison Landall and William Wilson, a Presbyterian farming family.
He attended the Universities of St.Andrews, Glasgow, and Edinburgh. He never finished his studies, as he sailed for the New World in 1765. Aided by some letters of introduction, he became a tutor with the College of Philadelphia. He received an honorary M.A. shortly thereafter. In November 1767, he was admitted to the bar, and thus pursuing his recent-born interest in the law. He set up his own practice in Reading in the year 1768. He was quite successful, as he handled nearly half of the cases charged in the country court.
In 1774, he wrote an essay with the title:“ Considerations on the Nature and Extent of the Legislative Authority of the British Government.” He distributed this article among the members of the First Continental Congress. Within those pages, he set down a number of arguments which severely challenged the parliamentary authority over America. In the final conclusion of this manuscript, he states that Parliament had no power whatsoever over the American colonies. Although he accepted in some ways the power of the Monarch, he would not subject himself to the whims of Parliament, in which the colonies had no representation. His manuscript was read in both America and England, and created quite a stir. He was one of the first to ever voice these opinions in a sensible, well-argumented manner.
As a member of the Pennsylvanian Provincial Congress, he made a passionate speech about the possibility of an unconstitutional act made by Parliament. Judicial Review, the American system of checking governmental acts with the Constitution, was on its way.
In the same year, 1775, he signed the Declaration of Independence as a member of the Second Continental Congress. According to sources, it seems he hesitated at first, but signed anyway. This was due to the fact that he was a representative of the Middle States, where opinions about independence differed. But by signing the Declaration, he broke the deadlock the Pennsylvania delegation was in. His signature made sure Pennsylvania voted for independence.
During the next years he was an occasional member of the Continental Congress, and was present at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, which assembled with the purpose of drafting The Constitution of the United States of America. Here he was a very influential figure, whose ideas where heavily incorporated in one of the most important documents in history. Thus the Constitution bears his signature.
In 1789, he became a professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania, and in the same year was appointed associate justice of the Supreme Court.
It’s not all good news on this Scottish born American though, he was a terrible businessman and he took flight to escape imprisonment for debt. Eventually his $197,000 debt sent him to jail twice, but only for short stays. This didn’t seem to have affected his duties as a judge though as he continued on the Federal judicial circuit despite his misdemeanors.
In 1798, James Wilson suffered a bout of malaria and then died of a stroke at the age of 55, he was buried in the Johnston cemetery on Hayes Plantation near Edenton, but was later reinterned in 1906 at Christ Churchyard, Philadelphia.

"Why ya doin' me dirty." There was no fight in his voice. Only a smile that reflected the joy in Peter's eyes. Having dinner first worked in their favor, if only to frustrate them.
"We're gonna do it," he decided, looking up to their waitress as she returned. Both challenges. Spicy wings challenge for him, king's platter for Peter. The king's challenge has been updated. A whole baked potato and lobster tails to boot.
"Ya ain't gonna want shit til we get back home."
“I’d like us to live to see Edenton again, sue me.”
Calling it the king’s challenge was no exaggeration; Pete very likely would actually go into hibernation if he managed to finish even half of it. Still, he was more than up for it.
He scoffed. “Hey now, don’t go underestimating your bear boyfriend’s appetite. We’re getting a jump on the winter pudge, that’s all.”

It wasn’t a changing month. That was the main reason Kelly had felt comfortable enough to head to the mountains to camp instead of sticking to the forests closer to Edenton. There were enough potential dangers to worry about without having to keep the moon in the back of his mind.
Ironic that he should feel safer inside vampire territory than outside of it, but least there he knew whose territory it was.
It was precisely that concern that had made him take care to choose a spot where humans frequented and where the likelihood of anyone having a solid claim seemed less. As much as he wanted to fuck off to the highest peak he could for a week and have nothing but snow and deer for company, he had to make some sacrifices for the sake of caution. Caution walked hand in hand with survival.
Caution and paranoia in his case.
Having taken whatever solitude he could get, he’d settled into his camp and into the routine of tending it.
Another meeting with ones that patrolled the area. News of possible threats. Tragic losses and blessings of new life. There were many condolences and congratulations to offer in his excursions. The ancient realizing he had forgotten just how many contacts he had in this world. Helpful in many respects. But he couldn’t deny how tiring all this could be. He’d paid his respects to the ruling creatures of the territory before heading into the woods. In a few days he had another meeting to attend. Another round of information to exchange and talks to ensure harmony and discretion. Now though, now was finally a time for rest.
He ventured into the woods. Intending to spend a night or two familiarizing himself with this place again before bringing his pups and grand pups on an adventure. Looking for a place to lay his pack, an unusual scent drifted on the wind. Curious the ancient followed the trail. Finding a lone Wolf tending a small camp. Not of his kind. But not the kinds that were particularly problematic either. He moved in closer, though kept a respectful distance. His footsteps intentionally heavy to avoid startling. “Pleasant day child of the moon.” He offered a greeting from older times. One to relay who he was and who he knew the other to be. Of course one this young might not have been taught that. He would just have to see.
