Leap Year Page #5

Why not?

A black cat just

crossed your path.

You can't start a journey

when you see a black cat.

Ten years bad luck.

No, it's not a cat,

it's a magpie.

Anyway,

it's 15 years bad luck.

Thirteen!

It's 12,

definitely 12.

Then l guess

it's a good thing l don't believe in luck, so...

Well, you ought to,

if you're getting into that, you.

Safe journey.

May the road

rise up to meet you.

See you, lads!

Good luck, Declan!

Bye, now.

l tell you

something,

they'll kill

each other!

Okay,

we're here, on the road.

Uh-huh!

It's only February 27th.

l still have two days to get there, so...

Mmm-hmm.

Where are we?

l may even get there before the stores close.

l could get some shopping in.

That's the reason

you're going to Dublin, is to shop?

No, I'm...

lf you must know,

I'm going there to propose to my boyfriend.

He's at a medical

conference there. He's a cardiologist.

We are applying

to move into the most amazing apartment,

and l actually thought

he was going to propose to me the other night,

but he didn't.

Yeah?

Yeah, and you guys have

this great tradition

that a woman can

propose to a man

on the 29th of February

in a leap year.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Mmm-hmm.

So l thought,

"Why not?"

Yeah!

Yeah.

l mean...

That's the

stupidest thing I've ever heard!

No, it isn't.

Yeah, it is.

No, it's a tradition.

It's a romantic tradition.

It's a day for

desperate women trying to trap themselves a man

who clearly doesn't

want to get married.

You've got to know

that if your man wanted to propose,

he'd have done it

already. Fact!

No one touches the music!

Are you crazy?

You know nothing about me or Jeremy!

You know what you are?

You're a cynic.

You're a lonely,

bitter cynic.

Better that than an idiot.

"Leap year, diddly-eye!

"Will you marry me,

diddly-eye?

"I've got a suitcase

called Louis, diddly-eye!"

What are you,

the Lucky Charms Leprechaun?

You know what? We are done.

We're not talking anymore.

I'm not paying you to talk,

I'm not paying for your opinion.

I'm paying

you to drive, so just get in the car and drive.

Suits me, Bob.

And what is with

this Bob thing?

Aren't you going

to do something?

l am doing something.

I'm waiting for them to move.

For God's sake.

Hi, cows.

Look, l have spent

the past 24 hours in every level of hell,

and l am not going to let

your black and white asses

drag me any further,

so if you know what's good for you, you'll move.

It comes as a real shock

to find out that you speak fluent cow.

Now!

That's right.

Nice cows.

Let's move.

Let's move along. Come on, cows.

Why don't you

propose something to them?

Yeah, you guys are...

Wow, you're big.
