Theresa: Hey, I want to take the kids out somewhere fun for their birthday. Meet us at Chuck E. Cheese at 1?
Laura: (silence)
Theresa: Are you there?
Laura: No. Oh, hell no.
Theresa: Dude, what's wrong?
Laura: I'm not going to fucking Chuck E. Cheese. It's the sixth circle of hell.
Theresa: It's not so bad. Loved it as a kid.
Laura: How old were you when you first went there?
Theresa: Dunno, about eight or so. My mom would take us. Dad flat out refused to go.
Laura: Smart fella but seriously. The twins were scared of that big Elmo plushie at Mall Tots the other day. How do you think they will react to a six and half foot sewer rat in a bowler hat and ugly vest?
