I just want to point out yet again that Edda and Amos grew up as neighbors who were in and out of each others' homes all the time, including on holidays... especially New Year's Eve. Which, oh God, we're leading up to a first kiss NYE story, aren't we? Even though McEldowney has done several "Edda Kisses Amos And He Is Not Prepared" stories.
I am very much NOT looking forward to watching two small children make out but I'm very prepared that's what we're going to.
What I'm really hoping for is another strip about leaping into the New Year.
What do I mean by that? Years and years ago, decades ago, McEldowney established this super cute tradition where Edda and her mom would both jump at midnight on NYE so they wouldn't be on the planet's surface when the year ticked over. They kept this up (more or less, sometimes they faked it) when Edda moved to NY.
McEldowney had two strips that interrupted a long running story where Edda and Juliette jumped with the toddler-aged twins but there was absolutely no explanation what they were doing or why... even long term readers had a hard time figuring out what was happening at first.
I would really like to see Juliette and Edda and Lolly and Polly do the NYE jump in some way, even if it's long distance or something.
