Sarah

Uh-oh. This is Billie’s fault. I take no blame.

Billie

You’ve been gone fifteen minutes. Give it time.

Sarah

And play nice.

Me

I AM playing nice.

I think Bob and Jill gave birth to a demon.

Sarah

Jill gave birth. Bob would’ve struggled.

Me

You’re not funny.

Billie

I think she’s a little funny, but not as funny as me.

Me

What am I supposed to do?

Sarah

Focus on the turtles. Julia and her stinking attitude

can go and release some skunks instead.

Billie

Agreed. Also,don’t name the turtles.

Billie

I mean it.

Billie

You’ll regret it when you have to say goodbye.

Sarah

She’s right. Don’t do it.

Me

As if.
