My Dear Sillies,
Here we are again with a "How the heck did this happen?!" I won't wish you one that's "Happy," because that feels empty and silly. We're looking towards a lot of unknowns and challenges. Yet that's life, right? We'll still laugh and love and eat chocolate. Right? (Unless you're allergic, in which case, you'll eat what brings you good feels.) So have a New Year that's filled with sparkly moments of joy and heart warming awe.
I love you.
I miss Dick, though. I really do.
Smiling - not least because the cultural references went over my head but the double entendres did not.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I need to be mindful of my audiences, it seems. Not everybody knows of the phenomenal Dick Clark. New Year's wasn't New Year's without watching him in Times Square. He didn't get sloshed to entertain the audience. Did I mention I miss him?
DeleteHave a safe and peaceful New Year's EC. You're very much appreciated.
You can get a Dick Clark chocolate bar. And it's only 20 years old! https://www.ebay.com/itm/204146835715
ReplyDeleteWell chocolate never expires. Yet why am I hesitant to check out that link, Mike???
DeleteNot to worry. This is not all that exciting unless you are really into Dick Clark.
DeleteWell I am, but I'm not paying $20 for that formerly 45 cent chocolate bar. Happy New Year, Mike.
DeleteI knew you meant DICK CLARK all along, lol!
ReplyDeleteNo, she didn't! You had her completely fooled, Robyn!
DeleteOkay, I admit it. It's true. Happy New Year, Robyn! Wishing you all the dick you can handle in 2025!
DeleteHappy New Year from me too!
DeleteI prefer to trust HRH on this one. Just this once. Smiles.
DeleteAnd I'm a lesbian for the new year. Well, we'll see. Lesbians can miss Dick too, right? Clark, that is! Dick Clark. Wink.
Happy New Year HRH and Debra SWS. Kisses and hugs.
DeleteLike others, Dick Clark was not part of my growing up (hell, I am still growing up), but there are enough double entendres in there to keep me chortling all day. To everyone best wishes for a great 2025 with all the Dick (dick) you can handle.
ReplyDeleteI'm kind of surprised, because New Year's always meant being with Dick Clark. It hasn't felt the same.
DeleteThank you, David. Have a safe, healthy, and loving 2025.
I miss Working Dick.
ReplyDeleteI've said too much.
Yeah, TMI, Al.
DeleteHappy New Year!
I knew it about Dick Clark, the man who seemed to never age which made his death all the more shocking.
ReplyDeleteYes, what an icon.
DeleteHappy New Year, Jeff.
Dick Clark was THE MAN for all things music and upstanding just darn good clean fun. Shucks, Robyn. Have a gee whiz golly gosh good year. Great poem (snicker!)
ReplyDeleteYes, the best of the good clean fun men/Dicks. Sigh.
DeleteHappy New Year, Joanne. Thank you.
What in the world is going on? But you know what, you're right. We're still gonna be eating chocolates. I know I will!
ReplyDeleteThat's all we know, isn't it? We gotta eat chocolate.
DeleteThanks, Lux.
Dick could be a bit of a prick behind that toothy smile, he had plenty of guile. Even though he could be a bit of a dick, this 140 year old man knew how to cut to the quick.
ReplyDeleteFun fun aside, how are you? Are you near the fires? Any of your friends? I hope not..just thinking of you.
Oh, I want the inside scoop on Dick (Clark and any other).
DeleteThanks hon, I'm fine and my family is too but so damn scary. I will post soon again.
Love to you.
