My day and you can have it

playing Thundering Herd of Wildebeests across the floor to yowl out the window is excusable.
playing Thundering Herd of Wildebeests across the back of Mom's neck at 5 AM is a one-way ticket becoming the new strings on Dad's violin.

Oatmeal, peanut butter on whole wheat and ramen for dinner.
I will be pleased when we have money again.

“Your girl was exactly what she seemed. I'll bet she didn't let you within five feet.” He looked at the unicorn and smoothed her mane, “Did you, precious?”
“I don't understand. I'm honest.” Nick pulled away as the pig, finished with its food, investigated his shoelaces. “Don't like animals much anyway.”
