Outnumbered

I was invited to a baby shower yesterday.  When I told Bine that I would be leaving at 6 pm she lost it.  Tears, protest.  "You CAN'T go.  I WON'T let you.  KIDS make the rules and I say NO."  I have to go, Bine.  I won't be gone long.  Unfortunately parents still make the rules, honey, but I'll let you know when that changes.  You can stay here with Pappa, Angus and Ralph (friend, houseguest) and have a pappa-corn party and watch a movie.  "NO!  Then I will be here with THREE MEN and NO WOMEN and that is the WORST!"
