Default Odinism/Asatru practitioners?

I want to incorporate some Odinist practices into my routine. I tend to get rather pagan this time of year to begin with, and for some reason lately the mythology (which I'm well familiar with) has been popping up all over for me. I'm also familiar with runes, and a couple weeks ago unexpectedly participated in the Hammer Rite.

Any practitioners with ideas, resources, etc. to toss my way?

Make a stew of bats, spiders, and well worn sneakers. Have a big bowl each morning, Wash it down with a tall glass of the extract of well rotted rats.
On nights of the full moon, wear a costume of a long haired wolf. At two AM in a crowded development dance in a circle making very loud howling sounds.
When the station wagon comes, and a couple of guys in white uniforms ask you to get in, don't resist. They'll take you to a nice comfortable place,

A great article on Wyrd By my favorite author in Heathenry Swain Wodening

I also would like to recommend the Poetic Edda-any & every translation you can find, Hollanders is the standard but I am partial to Larrington's translation
The Prose Edda
aa well as the many Saga's out there
Just for fun you might want to get yourself a copy of American Gods By Neil Gaiman, It is fiction, but boy does it put a truer spin on Odin than I have ever seen in any of the ancient Lore..
