Me: Hey, Duck.
Duck: Hi, Jay.
Me: Is it still raining outside?
Duck: Think so.
Me: (sighs) That stinks.
Duck: It's ok, I'll keep you dry.
Me: Thanks. Hey, wouldn't it be cool if you could fly us home?
Duck: Like Mary Poppins?
Me: Yes! Except I'm more like the Chimney Sweep. You know, Dick Van Dyke's character. Because I'm a guy...
Duck: I get it. That would be pretty cool. Too bad I can't fly.
Me: But aren't you a duck?
Duck: Yes. A duck UMBRELLA.
Me: Right, right....I mean, "Right-O, Gov'nah!"
Duck: ...
Me: Time to go home?
Duck: Yep.
Sep 28th
Me: Hey, Duck.
Duck: Hey, Jay.
Me: You know, I can't remember the last time it rained on September 11th.
Duck: That's true. I can't either.
Me: I mean, there's a good chance I'm wrong. It has been eight years, but I feel like the the weather always held up. Not rainy and quite warm. I don't know. I miss my friend.
Duck: I know.
Me: Thanks for coming to work with me today.
Duck: Anytime.
