That’s what the girls call it when I need to recharge. It’s funny.

I’m taking my emergency medicine dose and will likely be inert for a while. (I literally thought I turned the rice cooker on and waited and it was unplugged.-not good)

I have been sleeping but it feels like I haven’t reinvigorated my cells as my youngest would say.

For fun…if you haven’t heard of OdinSleep

The Odinsleep is a periodic, coma-like slumber in Marvel comics and films that Odin, the All-Father of Asgard, must enter to recharge his immense magical power, the Odinforce. During this time, which typically lasts about a week, Odin is left severely vulnerable, requiring his army and family to protect him from foes like dark forces or Frost Giants. [1, 2, 3] 

Key Aspects of the Odin Sleep

• Purpose: To replenish the Odinforce, the energy needed to rule and defend Asgard. Without it, his power levels diminish. 
• Vulnerability: While unconscious, Odin is as vulnerable as a mortal, creating a high-risk period for the realm. 
• Awareness: Despite being asleep, Odin is often aware of what happens in Asgard and on Earth during his slumber. 
• Frequency: The sleep typically occurs once a year or whenever his energy is depleted. 
• Mythology vs. Marvel: This concept is not part of original Norse mythology; it is a feature created for the Marvel universe, as discussed in this r/norsemythology Reddit thread. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] 

Significance in Marvel StoriesThe Odinsleep is a critical plot device. It is used to show the cost of Odin’s power, forces other characters (like Thor or Loki) to step up, and often marks a time of crisis where the kingdom is attacked while its defender is powerless. [2, 7]
