After spending Saturday at a children's party (with lots of little girls in pretty dresses), and many comments from me about how adorable the children were and heavy emphasis on Cowboy's name when I made these comments (as in 'Look at that little darling in the pink dress, isn't she adorable, Cowboy?!').

Red: What was that?

Cowboy: Ummm, that was it.

Red: You are joking right? You didn't pull out.

Red: (Quietly) Ummm, yeah. Just shocked.

Cowboy: I mean, I'm sure it won't happen after just one time.

Red: (Very quietly) Yeah, I'm sure... Although Champ did...

Red: (Whispers) 'Night.
