"You were right, I didn't want to stop."

'Just look at him. The face that lunched on a thousand chips.'

"Loves it, just can't get the little fellow off it"

Sunset gets later and later every day, little buddy. So what? So, sunset happens later in the day. That means I an accomplish a lot more before smooching hour. I can run an extra ten miles. I can chop an extra cord of firewood. I can catch an extra school of fish. I can prepare for my date by mining an extra nugget of lip balm from my secret lip balm quarry.
