OK, why did I just turn into a duck?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's a game that requires five days of uninterrupted good weather and it was invented in England. It was not made to be understood, only marvelled at.
That is perfect.

I have to admit to skimming. She always has some in-depth boring part that I may or may not actually read each time.
