Girl: This year isn't a good time to write.
Me: What are you talking about?
Girl: It's a leap year, that's why.
Me: What does a leap year have to do with writing?
Allie: It doesn't! Leave him alone!
Girl: Wait till next year! Then you can write again!
Allie: Hold that thought! *uses her magic wand to make the girl have a headache*
Girl: I have a serious headache!
Allie: Take some aspirin!
Penguin: A lot of people write during leap years!
Me: Exactly!
Girl: What a penguin doing here?
Penguin: Now, let's not get nosy, bub! *whacks the girl with a cartoon mallet*
Girl: *out cold with cartoon stars floating above her, and her tongue sticking out*
West Virginia Hillbilly: I should make her a moonshine milkshake!
