Dr. Seuss Birthday Rhyme

did not have to go to lunch?

Grace calls me in the office, at 11. "I'm at the bar of the gym. I just finished Pilates, madonna like I'm tired! And what are you doing?" "I'm working, really." "Ah, look, if you like the macrobiotic lunch together?" "Of course, love." "Ok, pero 'arrival at noon and a half to go now that I have already' hunger." '.... ".... Should be ok, I'll wait. "

at the scheduled calls me and tells me to go below the office. But instead of finding the door I see in the distance that beckons me to go to her. E 'in front of the window of a furniture shop in luxury. I pass by every morning for years but not I never thought to go in 'cause it looks like a place too expensive.

"Look at this beautiful sofa! We go in?" "How would we go in, what do you care, come on, did not have to go to lunch?" "Where do you enter?" "... And I know ..." Din Don! the relentless sound of the door bell hi tech. "I help you?". The diligent and committed bespectacled 'already' there ', and within minutes the entire show at Grace calatogo sofas and the entire sample of tissue. Meanwhile, Grace asks questions I absolutely do not idle waiting for either of them the answer, rather, encompasses the answer to the question itself, but the whole procedure is for the illusion of having me involved in the purchasing decision. "Sit down, try it, comfortable, no? And this fabric? Best this or that? This, no? And the length? We need more 'or longer' short for you? More 'long, is better. You say, we put it under the picture in the house? Yes, under the picture is good. "

I stay 'daze without understanding what's going on up to three sentences for solutions, given in rapid succession:

1)" It' s just like you wanted "
2) (pronounced low voice) "Look at that price and 'good!"
3) "We made a deal!"

advance from my credit card and home delivery in 3 days. Done. I went from' office thinking about going to lunch and I bought a new sofa.
And all and 'success in fifteen minutes flat.

the macrobiotic restaurant, after showing me the jacket that she had bought just before our meeting, Grace, Strong learned of the cooking course macrobiotoca who are following every Wednesday 'evening, complaining of disequilibrium protein menu'. "Now's where I'm going to ask, me, here, the protein?" "Please, can you tell it to him one day when there are? I'll come here often .....".

exit, while we're about to say goodbye, I say "Oh, I have no more 'tickets' s bus. You have one for me?" ".... Not really ... I've finished this morning, but we can buy the newspaper ... " "No, it's well, 'patience, I a taxi, hello ".
