I know, I know. I am way off schedule. Work, pain, what-have-you. But I finally got a run in this evening about 5:30. With the late start and dinner in the works, I decided against collecting today. Or so I thought.
About a block from home I noticed a glove by the side of the street. Despite its despicable Chicago Bears logo, I couldn't pass it by. I hadn't bothered to carry a bag, so I just stuffed it in my pocket. Still, I neglected more than a dozen cans for lack of time and carrying capacity. But gloves kept appearing, beckoning with their outstretched fingers.
So I kept it simple today. A handful of gloves, a bonus stocking cap and a cute little monkey with a curved arm and a curled tail, just like the old Barrel of Monkeys toys but a little larger and bearing a number 6 on his belly.

But that was it for today's monkey business. More later.
