Laugh of the Insane

When things don't go your way, laugh the laugh of the insane.
When you find your own path, laugh the laugh of the insane.
When you spend more time with a kleenex box than your friends, laugh the laugh of the insane.
When something is funny, laugh the laugh of the insane but louder and more crazy-like. That way people will know when you're really happy.

Autumn Daydreams


Jen has inspired me to post about Norse Mythology. (Picture here.)
My first encounter with Norse Mythology was my sophomore year of high school in English class. My instructor told us about how in college she had to do a huge research paper about the Norse sagas and she and her classmates scoured the local libraries for information. It sounded like she was scraping so much as picking info out of books with a pair of tweezers. With one Google search I have found 604,000 results in 0.12 seconds. It's good to have the internets.
A list from the University of Pittsburgh. From there I found a list of all things fae! The World of the Vikings sounds impressive. Wow...I'm kind of wanting to read the Wheel of Time series now. That, and have a wonderful autumn fest in a huge field.
There were be a tent, with roasted food and wine and mead. Children would be running in the leaves, women would wear a ringlet of leaves and fall flora. And everyone would gorge themselves on food. Corn and breads, roasted beef and potatoes. Just when you think you can't eat anymore, you see the table full of pies, cakes, candies and tarts. The feast is merry and plentiful. A bonfire will light the sky while we sit and sing and drink and tell stories until we retire. The shadows grow darker and the night takes over. An appropriate welcome for the second harvest. Someday....
