Yesterday morning at 5:30 I had a brief ten minutes of increasing panic and despair when I couldn't find the damn duck and couldn't remember if I had seen her the night before. Normally she is waiting anxiously for me to feed her, so when I couldn't find her I started to wonder. Then I got my flashlight, which for its size, emits an amazingly weak light due to the fact that it needs new batteries and I can't seem to make that happen. I searched high and low. I searched in her duckhouse. I searched under the tables. I called. With mounting anxiety, I walked back through the house to the big back yard and started reluctantly looking for a duck carcass. Randi and Earl looked surprisingly confused. Then, as I was searching the perimeter in the dark, the flashlight beams came across the two bright eyed eyes and beak of the duck who was sitting on her damn nest hidden behind the half dead tree.
I just found out that you can vote for Max every day which I'm not going to lie, makes me less excited about this whole contest because it's one thing to ask people to vote once, but every day? Til when? That's a time commitment, I'm not sure everyone can do.
