And today, even seven-year olds don't do that whole cute girlish thing, swishing their skirt and chatting to you in unnnaturally girlish voices to appear endearing. So hell yeah, old lady.

And just so you know, I'd even be uncomfortable alone at La Bodega. The only bar I was comfortable being alone at and chatting up the friendly bartender was After Five. Don't think I'll ever find a substitute for After Five.<BR/><BR/>Marge: Nyeeks? I like that. I think I'm going to officially adopt that exclamation.<BR/><BR/>Nessa: Sigh.
