The Moth
The Moth Radio Hour: Menorahs, Presents and Palm Trees - December Holiday Stories

So I chase after her, and we're outside, and I kind of grab her by the arm. I say, no, wait. She said, no, Bernie, you know, I'm sensing you're not all that into me, so I'm just going to go home. I said, let me explain. I didn't kiss her on the first date, because I just don't kiss on the first date. And I didn't kiss her on the second date, because I had really bad onion and garlic breath.

And I didn't kiss her on the third date, because I thought I'd be better to kiss her on the fourth date, New Year's Eve tonight, but I couldn't reach her tonight, because her two may be apart, and I couldn't reach her, and I'm really sorry.

And then she gave me this look, you know, and it was just hard to read, you know, because sometimes a woman will look at you, and you have no idea what they're thinking. And then she said, goodbye, Bernie, and she walked away. So New Year's Day came, and I'm just feeling very lonely and depressed. It was a terrible way to bring in the New Year.

And she said, do you have champagne? And I said, I have Snapple. And she said, get it, but hurry up, it's 11.59. So I'm running in the kitchen, I'm getting the Snapple, and the song's rushing through my head. This is a romantic movie, I'm going to act this. And she yells in the living room, do you have champagne glasses? And I said, I have Batman and Robin coffee mugs.

Honey, you only have 20 seconds. It's romantic every night, so let lovers kiss. And I run into the living room with the coffee mugs. Sweet symbols of the moonlight. Do you think we'll ever fall in love for a chance? And we're sitting on the couch together with a Batman and Robin coffee mug. Took the Snapple and she's looking at the watch. She's doing the countdown. Three, two, one.
