“BONES: “I want you to promise me something. Promise me you’re not going to start running again.”

CAT: “No, I’m too tired to run, and you’re too fast. You’d only catch me.”

BONES: “That’s right, luv. If you run from me, I’ll chase you. And I’ll find you.”

“Who knew that all this time the nectar of the Gods was in my va-jay-jay.”

“Amber, you could never embarrass me."

"One time, I yelled across the store to Mom and asked her if she wanted the regular or the super-absorbent tampons. I added that, according to the box, the super-absorbent were for those heavy days. Then I asked her to rate her heaviness on a scale of one to ten."

"Okay, you could."

"Then while we were standing in line, I asked her why she was buying three boxes of Summer's Eve in the middle of winter."

I set her at arm's length. "Wow."

"I know, right? I had no idea a person could turn so red.”
