Good old Thor, the Norse god of thunder — but also of strength and protection — making me think, of course, of dogs who thunder down the hall with brute force love and a singular intention to save us from intruders.

Until, that is, we open the door and let them out. In which case they’re like, “Oh, really? FUN!!!”

Thursday (Thor’s Day)

Four-pawed thunder god
pounds down the hall, out the door,
straight toward the weekend
