The Big Thrill

Me: So... do you think it will be okay if I go to The Big City with my girlfriends and do some shopping?

Del Rey: I suppose.

Me: And it'll be okay if Abbie spends the day with you at the office?

Del Rey: I suppose. What are you going to do in The Big City?

Me: Oh, you know, some shopping...

Me: ...and some more shopping...

Me: ...and some eating...

Our scrumptio-delicious Mexican food for lunch

Me: ...and you know, some more shopping...

Del Rey: Well, okay then. Have a good time. Be safe. Love you.
