They just are in each ottery moment. Plus, they get to swirl and bob; it makes me wish I might be that comfortable and nondrowny in the ocean. <BR/><BR/>Or, maybe contentment is just eating lots of fresh seafood.Bettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15697477970050469367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4454946892443304749.post-9854987212641455492008-01-18T09:46:00.000-05:002008-01-18T09:46:00.000-05:00I am only certain that I'm as much a sinner as any...I am only certain that I'm as much a sinner as any criminal (different crimes is all), I will never be a good morning person, I do love my job even when it makes me cranky, and otters are indeed about the most endearing creatures alive. Even more so than my own children (because otters don't talk back).<BR/><BR/>Happy Friday, man - you deserve it (oh, I'm certain of that, too :))stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04257126641387033673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4454946892443304749.post-45739299828439078172008-01-17T16:34:00.000-05:002008-01-17T16:34:00.000-05:00It is funny you have otters and uncertainty on the...It is funny you have otters and uncertainty on the same page - i am attempting to address the future, uncertain at best, with the energy and joy that otters bring to what ever they do. <BR/><BR/>Nice post.

My perfect kid turned out to have a few qualms about finishing that expensive education, and I'm now among millions wondering just what the hell our government is doing.<BR/><BR/>But I am NO LESS HAPPY.<BR/><BR/>(Well, okay.
