                        Eve called Howard one more time

                        this time she had plenty of nickel and dimes

                        to spend on his nursury rhymes

                        would he tickle her with something sublime

                        or would he suggest they trickle down a slice of key lime?

                        it was a toss up

                                        [phone still ringing]

                        maybe he's not .....

                        hello ... howard

howard :

                        hey Eve

                        no pickles

                        just lettuce and tomatoes

eve :

                        how's it going?

howard :

                        pretty good

eve :

                       where are you at?

howard :

                       Backyard Burgers

eve :

                       really, i love that place

                       try the chili cheese fries

                       they're prime

howard :

                       i will

                       so what do i owe this pleasure?

eve :

                       are you busy next week?

                      [savoring the voice of her treasure]

howard :

                      no, not really

                      why? what's up?

eve :

                      well, i was sort of hoping you'd have the spare time

                      to work with me part time

howard :

                      is that it?

eve :

                      [no, i love you Howard]

                      that's it

howard :

                      just call my secretary

                      she'll set it up

eve :

                      thanks Howard

                                           [later that nite]

debbie :

                      are you sure there's no guy cuter than him?

                      he's a little inexperienced

eve :

                      i'm sure

                      besides, tutoring him would be easy

                      and the suitor in him could please me

debbie :

                      maybe you're right

                      well, i gotta go to Hooters

eve :

                      alright, call me after you get off work

                                   [during Debbie's lunch break]

debbie's boyfriend :

                      sounds like another one of her whims

debbie :

                       hmmm ..... maybe ....



                                                                                  love,

                                                                                  eve & howard
