Hm....

This site says that Central Park has 21 playgrounds. I don't believe I've been to more than three or four of them (the playground we were at the other day was the Billy Johnson playground). When I was little, and we went to Central Park, we fed the ducks a lot, and climbed on the rocks (that'd be the twenty-second playground, the climbing rocks) and watched the clock and went to the Met or the Natural History museum.

Twenty-one. (And is that twunty or twehnty?) If I went to one a week, that'd be five months.

A long time ago, before my dad died, we went on a walk, with Jenn (Ginger) and Midnight, and we went to... well, we said it was all the parks in Brooklyn, but it probably was only five or six of them. All in one day.

Twenty-one playgrounds. It's only one park, but it's a big one....

Well, I have a goal for next year. Wish me luck. I'll stick that on my list of New Year's Resolutions.

Edit: Or, y'know, I could've gone here. I'm stupid with sleepiness. That's my excuse.

Thoughts on Monk and my day, before I clean dishes and take a nap...

( My day )

Oh! And I forgot. Ana really likes trucks and cars and motorcycles right now, so I thought it'd be good to get her some boy clothes (with trucks and cars and planes on them instead of butterflies and flowers) and put her in those, see if people get confused. And, of course, she needs more toy vehicles, because she goes crazy over the few she has right now. So this is an open bit of begging - if anybody has any patterened boy clothes (or just non-girly clothes) for children up until - say, three, let her grow into them - I'd gladly pass them to Jenn. Or toys for kids under three, that works as well. New baby's in November, remember.

Though we can also buy stuff, and will no matter what, I do hate to see perfectly good clothes sit in an attic.
