Time to Enjoy


The IWSG is asking do you say what you enjoy or critique? Pffft. The human says it is time to fly, so we will go with enjoy. Why bother with the other nonsense when not asked for? Sorry, sand. You are too sandy. Nah. No fun. Let's fly over it and enjoy.


What? We aren't flying? Just you. We have to stay with Nanny? Okay. Maybe we'll critique that. That is bad. There. See? Not fun but needed.


Try living in a cat bed. Then you may not enjoy.


Or you can enjoy by standing in front of St. Me Cathedral. 


Or maybe not enjoy as you spy on the rich people. Or maybe that is your thing.


Or maybe enjoy a model or three as you come to see.


Or enjoy being as mad as a hatter. Crazy works just fine here.


Or feed the foxes. Shhhh. I never did that. Nope. Not me.


Or enjoy the Christmas spirit.


Or enjoy pretending a crab is biting your butt.


Maybe enjoy feeding the birds and not getting pooped on.


Or a big tree all decorated up to see.


Or trapped in the world of birds. 


Or freezing in the night by the lights. I guess it is good to know what year it is. See? Can enjoy and critique too. Who knew?


Enjoy the big bright circle with your sign. Not really yours as you don't own it, but let's pretend.


Or maybe go to the square and see things that umm scare.


Take in a show as a kicking The Rockettes go.


Then play tourist at night with many a big light.


Or during the day. The lights are there to stay.


Grab a dog and kiddos and watch the parade. Enjoy before the memories fade.


Even join the Barbie trend. That thing is never going to end.


Feed a stoic mutt while he sits on his butt.


Look at a wall and see NBC along the hall.


Radio City is a place. Give it an embrace.


Or go to the tonight show. It may be better than the today show. You never know.


Stick your head in a shark. Warning. May leave a mark.


See the ice and the covered tree. Boy. That must take hours to decorate. Costs half a million bucks to rent a room near there too. I'll leave that to you.


And another tree. All decked out to see. Can you feel the spirit yet?


What about now with the jolly fat guy? He sure isn't shy.

So there you are. Can enjoy near and far. Let the critique go, unless asked for by so and so. Yeah. I slipped into rhyme. I do that from time to time. Do you say what you enjoy? Do you ignore and play coy? Or do you go aboard the author when never asked to do so? Inquiring minds want to know. Or maybe not. That sand is sandy by a lot. Something must be done. Oh, speaking of done and fun....


I just finished putting this up too. I enjoyed writing it between flying here and there and going here and there with NYers. It's true.

Hope all have a great Christmas and holiday and enjoy some time with family and friends. No need to critique at all. Just deck that tacky hall. 

Maybe I'll fly away once more. Who knows what 2024 has in store. Let's hope it isn't death. What? I'll enjoy as long as I draw breath. Why would you draw it though? I can't draw so that is a no go. Guess I'll just keep doing it. Anyway, enjoy the holidays and never get too old to enjoy shit.

Whoops. Danny Glover may need to give that a pass. I was a little off with my little rhyming ass.

  3. Hi, Pat! I can see you've been up to a lot not where you're at! I'm so glad you were in NYC! One of my favorite students ever was a Rockette for at least a decade. I'll be back to catch up on all things Pat. I'm so glad you're posting again, my friend! Take care!
