Capitulation

The Giving of the In went like this
(pouring rain)

Ducks: (thinly veiled mute like threats)

WeakWilledMe: Oh, God, maybe they'll die because they won't go in the duckhouse and they'll be wet.

StrongWilledMe: They're ducks. They'll be fine.

WeakWilledMe: But ducks in the winter fly south.

StrongWilledMe: We live in the south.

WeakWilledMe: Maybe they're using all of their energy trying to kill me.

StrongWilledMe: A duck can not kill a human being.

WeakWilledMe: It's animal cruelty.

StrongWilledMe: Do you want the patio filled with duck shit again?

WeakWilledMe: No, but I don't want them to die!

StrongWilledMe: Don't do it!!

WeakWilledMe: (undoing the fence in one spot) It will only work if they are smart ducks and figure out how to get out.

StrongWilledMe: You suck.

WeakWilledMe: I know.
