Okay, hold on.

Stay with me.

We got this together.

We're gonna be all right.

So I called my godparents and told them that my mother had fallen on hard times.

My mother hadn't been on hard times since she was two.

I said she'd fallen on hard times and I needed them to pay this bill because I didn't want to ask her for the money.

Okay.

Now we got it.

We have tied up all the loose ends.

Everything is gravy.

I've got the whole summer to figure out what I'm going to say to her.

Well, while I was doing all that plotting and thinking, I had forgotten to get myself enough money to eat.

And that's when I started reading magazines.

I started reading the newspaper.

I started watching the news.

And I turned myself into one hell of a dinner guest.

I've got good shoes.

I've got good manners.

I know how to talk to people.
