Three Days in August Page #3

---

I separated all my dresses.

Party, daytime, formal.

- What's in the other bag?

- Shoes.

- Oh.

Of course.

- All right, what do ya think?

- Ah, it's...

- Unh-uh.

- No?

- - Nuh-uh.

- Okay.

You know, before we left, I

treated myself to a manicure

and a pedicure and some

highlights,

and I don't even think

your father noticed.

- Well, you look great, mom.

That, great.

- I'm glad you like it.

'Cause I bought it for you.

- You didn't have to do that.

- Yes I did, 'cause I liked it.

I looked at it in the store

and I just saw you in it.

I thought, gosh, you'd just

look beautiful in that.

You know, when you invited

everybody,

you said on the invitation that

you wanted

something personal, something

special?

Something that would inspire

you, right?

- Mm-hmm.

- Well, your daddy brought

you the photo album,

and I brought you this.

It's Seana's.

- Yup, she made it for me

when she knew I was going to be

a mother.

You see the three stars,

that's her, that's me,

and that's you.

Three.

- I can't take this.

- What?

Yes you can.

- It's yours.

- Shannon, you know

that I have always said

flowers are for the living.

That's yours.

- Thanks, mom.

- I love you.

- Love you.

- What is this?

- Oh, a beer?

- Yeah, absolutely.

Love these tops.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Salut.

- Salut.

- Ah, that is good.

I think we're just gonna order

some pizza.

- Oh, well, that's fine with me.

- All right, what kind ya want?

- Well, anything but

Canadian bacon.

- I thought you liked bacon.

- Oh, I love bacon,

but Canadian bacon isn't bacon,

it's ham.

It's Canadian ham, you know what

I mean?

I don't know how they get

away with calling it bacon.

It's ham!

I'm gonna file an injunction.

- All right, I'm with ya.

- So how's my grandson doin'?

- Hey.

Hello!

How's my grandson?

- Doin' good, grandpa.

School, studyin', dancin'.

Same ol', same ol'.

- Well, there ya go.

So how's the butcher

business, Dr. scalpel?

- Same ol'.

Oh, here they go.

How cute.

Did she end up with a Unitard?

- Ha, that'll clear a room.

- Stop it.

- We're just gonna order pizza.

- You just went to the store.

- I just thought that it would

be easier.

- Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-no.

Once everyone's here, we're not

leaving.
