Freyja - queen of the week

Ah, the Day of Fri.

Per Wikipedia, repository of Internet b.s:

The name Friday comes from the Old English frigedæg, meaning the day of Frige the Anglo-Saxon form of Frigg, a West Germanic translation of Latin dies Veneris, "day (of the planet) Venus." However, in most Germanic languages the day is named after freyja—such as Frīatag in Old High German, Freitag in Modern German, Freyjudagr in Old Norse, Vrijdag in Dutch, Fredag in Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish—but Freyja and Frigg are frequently identified with each other.

How friggin' awesome!

It is a lovely thing to see the work week end and be able to enjoy a weekend.
