Today's Agenda

I worked until about 8:30 last night. For those of you counting, that's 13-1/2 hours. I officially spent more than half the day working yesterday. But, I got a big bit of tool inventory finished, and it's another day close to going home.

Today I'm either delerious or in a good mood. So, focus of the day

1. get this paperwork off of my desk
2. do another area for tool audit tonight
3. lay low
4. see if I can find any interesting mythology about birch trees

I didn't go out last night. By the time I got back to my room, I was exhausted. Chances are it'll be the same tonight.

Today's Rune:

Ehwaz- Horse

Ehwaz is power, communication and recklessness. But also denotes travel. The rune has associations to me of the origins of Sleipnir, Odin's eight legged horse. The story goes that a giant disguised as a builder came to Asgard to build a wall around the place. A deal was struck that if the builder could complete the wall within one year of starting, he would have Freya and the sun to take with him. As the year passed, the builder with his horse drew closer to completing the wall, and with only three days left and the wall nearly complete, the gods grew troubled. Loki disguised himself as a mare and led the builder's horse away and as the three days passed, the giant did not finish his work. Sleipnir was born of Loki, sired by the giant's horse, and was given to Odin. He is said to be faster than any other horse, and carries Odin between the worlds.
