NOTE: First pre-dawn check of Socks in the Haruc. Heaters are still working, as compared to yesterday when they blew a fuse, and Socks is comfy-cozy, unwilling to emerge!
Plans: Convergys
NOTE: I gave Socks another chance to come out from the Haruc. He’s still not interested.
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!

A twelfth one I sing, when I see through the brush
The hanged one swinging from the hemp;
He climbs down from the trunk, must tell me his tale
When I carve the Runes right.

Well, NOW in class we were told the practice exams we’ve been taken ARE the exam we’ll be taking Thursday. Hopefully that’s right because that’s the way I’m going to study now.
Socks finally emerged from the Haruc.
Toby out for as much of a walk as I could get in before sunset; well, and a bit of conversation with the BEAUTIFUL J’sW daughter of my J’sW neighbor.
Jeez…lots of catch-up to do on Facebook.
