Havamal 160.
A sixteenth I speak if a maid is reluctant,
To wake her lust and desire;
I change the heart of the delightful woman,
Then to me her wishes turn.
Lust/desire, the waxing and waning moon, lunar-like mutability of the feminine essence, the error-rune, conquering resistance through confusion, eventual perfection, Female mysteries, roots of the World Column, the carrier of genetic material, God-woman, femininity, desire, sensual love, passion, perfection, Mother, chaos from which creation emerges, female principle in the Cosmos, the night, death and instinct, anger, falsehood, error and the oppositions found in humankind, mystical union, night, moon, well grounded, roots of Irminsul from which all life springs, woman as the opposite/balance to man, the descending Divine Feminine being.
“Think about the end” (List, 63).

Interpretation: Harvest (Jera) leads to eventual perfection (Yr).

Outcome: I took some Mucinex last night before bed, but my cold is fully-on this morning!

Vikings http://www.history.com/shows/vikings Chromecast onto my tele
*the HUGE, great Viking army, led by Bjorn Ironsides, goes to England for revenge against King Ælla for the killing of their father and hero, Ragnar Lothbrock. King Ælla egotistically underestimated the Viking hoard, is greatly outnumbered, and soundly defeated.
*Bjorn Ironsides, Ragnar’s 1st born son, delivered the blood eagle to King Ælla with impunity, dragged by Ivar the Boneless in his chariot @ the same spot where King Ælla killed Ragnar.
**FUCKING WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Toby and I out for a poorly behaved 30min walk. Early in the walk, his complete disregard for common voice commands put him on the retractable. Once back inside the neighborhood, I took him off it. Then, Toby was SO compliant.

Dillons; zinc…in need of zinc…and a few other things.

No time for a workout routine. Will pick it up tomorrow.

Leftover foodie experiment, plus a garden salad

It was a pretty good 8hr shift; mostly on the shaper table, but finished in deburr.
*the whole left side of my face is excruciatingly painful. My sinuses suck badly enough without having to deal with this cold.
*fog, beautiful fog…

Finally Socks comes home.

Donar, Son of Wotan and Erda, husband to Sibba with the Golden Hair, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!
