When I was little I thought Lease was a spoiled little girl. I got this impression when the toy store a block down displayed in its window what I thought was a giant gift tag proclaiming, “For Lease”. I couldn’t believe someone bought an entire toy store for their kid! Then I saw the tags pop up in other places, too. And, although it was strange that Lease had a propensity for chain restaurants, it took me way too long to figure out that Lease was not just a very lucky little girl. And while I was incredibly jealous the entire time I thought she was getting all the toy stores and fast food joints her little heart desired, I was a little sad when I learned the truth. That I would never be as lucky as little Lease because she didn’t exist. Nobody buys their children entire toy stores and definitely wouldn’t feel the need to set them up with a run down Pizza Hut. When I figured this out I felt kind of like a set of underlined dashes.

Thanks for making me laugh!!!
