2006: The Year of Tottering Duckly

Moving by degrees to the blank reach of 2007. I like it. Those ripe green ones that still have juice in them.

This year has been one of hysterical extremes; I’ve gone through more of what I like to call road learning (as opposed to “book learning,” and I forget who used to say that to me back when but it came up often, book larnin’, yep) than I expected. I’ll be glad to put it down at the last of December, look up, and whisper my goodbyes to the year that was.

(Lame duck. See? Tottering duckly? Hmm … more coffee might be just the thing, now that you mention it.)

    I’ll drink to that.

    You said it. Actually, I said it. But you said it again, and that works for me.

    That’s a duck?

    I thought those were leaves? :-)

  4. Linus Says:

    Yes - duck leaves.

    See? Duck is nowhere to be seen. Duck left.

    When you can snatch the drumstick from my hand, grasshopper, then it will be time for you to leave this place.
