"Love blurs your vision; but after it recedes, you can see more clearly than ever. It's like the tide going out, revealing whatever's been thrown away and sunk: broken bottles, old gloves, rusting pop cans, nibbled fish bodies, bones. This is the kind of thing you see if you sit in the darkness with open eyes, not knowing the future."

(Margaret Atwood, author of The Handmaid's Tale, was born on this day in 1939.)

I had no sooner opened up my computer than one of the baristas came up to my table and, without a word, handed me a latte.

It's Thor's Day.
Let's all get out our gauntlets and celebrate.
