Would it be another work day, weekend, or something else? What would it be called? Where would it fit nicely in the week? Sun Moon Tyr Wodan Thor Freya Saturn How would this change things in the modern world? Is there actually an optimum number of days in the week or is it just random? | ||

Well for one thing, the Beatles song of the same name would be valid. > Sun Moon Tyr Wodan Thor Freya Saturn Balderday works pretty nice. Or maybe Jupiter though jupiday sounds silly. Personally, I would prefer a longer day instead. More sleep, more time after work. 30 hours? maybe 36 hours? Though I imagine employers would simply demand we work 20+ hours a day. | ||
