(Heumond = Hay Month)
The thunderstorm started shortly after midnight and ran several hours.
Checked on Essie; she was hiding deeply in the hall closet. Toby was close-by
everywhere I went. Socks had been cooped up in his Cat House MUCH longer, but
knowing this was coming I was not going to let him out. Checking on him this
morning, he THOUGHT about coming out, looked at me saying, “hold me, daddy.” I
sat down, held him for a while and he was ready to head out.
Between the storm, and my bladder, it was a rather shitty night.
Plans: work 10hrs

AM Meditation: Ziustac/Tuesday, we meditate on Ziu:
Ziu, husband to Zisa, Great God of bravery, one-handed god, you chained the Fenris Wolf that threatened the worlds. We can’t do that, but we can do other things, some
ordinary, others heroic. Remind us of your bravery and your sacrifice. Give us
the courage and strength we need to fetter our own Fenris. Keep us mindful of
our duties, and help us keep our fears bound as tightly as you bound old Slaver
Mouth. Thus doing, may we share in your glory by imitating you. WE GIVE YOU A
MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu that resides in us all!
Elder Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Elder Runes in your way

Good PM work…had the USA/Belgium match on the radio.
Home…USA/Belgium on ESPN3.com
End of regulation, 0-0
1st extra time
2nd extra time
Belgium 2-1 USA
ABSOLUTELY gut-wrenching!
Belgium advances to quarterfinals
Call in from OKC with plans for Winter Finding/Autumnal Equinox.
Oh yeah, the other World Cup match
Argentina v Switzerland 1-0
Argentina advances to quarterfinals
Okay, so the World Cup Quarterfinals are set:
Brazil v Colombia
France v Germany
Netherlands v Costa Rica
Argentina v Belgium
Germany will always be my first pick, but Netherlands and Belgium are right up there. SO, I still have a good chance to have at lease ONE of my teams do well.
Essie wanted to go out on her tether. Yeah, that seemed like a good idea as it was long before sunset. It turned into a family front yard time; that is, until the FUCKING mosquitoes chased us inside.
Uneventful after that.
