Only two scenarios can explain my drought. Either the populace of Backroads has become raving penny-pickers...or the cashiers who'd been tossing out pennies in the hopes of seeing Val's ample rumpus have decided that the view is not worth a red cent.
Only one penny revealed itself to me this week. On SUNDAY, November 10, I accidentally found a penny on my way out of Orb K. I'd scored my favorite parking space next to the yellow-striped handicap walkway with the gentle ramp up the sidewalk. As I shuffled along, careful not to dislocate a kneecap on the slight slope, my eyes were glued to the ground, lest any irregularities send me sprawling.
THE END IS NEAR! The end of the Penny Year. I'm concerned that I won't reach last year's total. At least I'm already killing it with dimes, nickels, and quarters!

I couldn't find the penny, but I think I found Waldo!
ReplyDeleteI am not collecting Waldos, and not striving to become a Future Waldoillionaire. Hick would have to build me a special themed shed in which to keep my not-goblets, but perhaps BARRELS, of Waldos.
DeleteI have NEVER found Waldo and gave up looking eons ago. If he keeps getting lost, he should stay home. Like Jesus. People ask me "have you found Jesus?" and I say "is he lost AGAIN!?"
DeleteI didn't see it until you mentioned cigarette butts and even then I wasn't sure, but in the next picture I saw it clearly. I wonder if Even Steven is gearing up to visit me? We have a huge jackpot draw later this week and I have tickets.
ReplyDeleteI just gave Even Steven a call on his private line, and urged him to book his flight and get over there as soon as possible!
DeleteI'll let you know if he makes it.
