Subject: Beating the Heat
“It's so hot all of a sudden. Summer has really arrived.”
“You know what would really hit the spot? A root beer float!”
“Mmm, that does sound good. But we have no root beer, or even ice cream.”
“How could we have no ice cream? That's gotta be a sin or something.”
“I think I saw Billy finishing it off last night.”
“Wasn't there a lot left?”
“Probably, but you know Billy.”
“Yeah. He takes the phrase 'I'm so hungry I could eat a horse' literally.”
“I'll go get the supplies this time. Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream?”
“Perfect. Don't get Mug root beer though, I hate that stuff.”
When Tabitha returns, I start scooping the ice cream, and we're chatting about nothing in particular. I put the first one down on the counter next to Sara and turn back to the ice cream carton.
“Hey! Where'd my float go?”
“I put it right there. Hmm..”
“Maybe it floated away.” Frank says, walking in from around the corner.
“Grr! Float thief!”
“Did you just growl at me?”
“Don't steal my float then. Especially if you're going to make bad puns after you do it.”
“You know, some people think I'm funny.”
Tabitha snickers. “Who?”
“And don't say Scott.”
“Forget it. I'll just sit here and enjoy my float.”
Let's all do that. Here's the rest of them. Flip on the games or something Frank.”
“Already there.”
