I should have had the day off too

xxx: i wish i could take the day off to mourn Reagan
nicole: no kidding. shouldn’t we all be respecting his death by having the day off?
nicole: Wall Street’s closed and the USPS has the day off — why should we bother?
xxx: i imagine i’m as touched as the guy at the post office
nicole: i would imagine so.
nicole: i know i am.
nicole: i also believe that some day this week was designated as “Ronald Reagan Day” in Montana. We should have had the day off.
xxx: it would be the only respectful thing to do
nicole: i know that if i had the day off, and, for example, went shopping, that i would totally wander through the Gap while remembering and truly respecting the man that was Ronald Reagan.
xxx: and i would work in my garden, appreciating the fact the Reagan installed the first woman in the supreme court
nicole: of course you would.
xxx: and maybe i would do some shopping for Father’s Day, because I’m sure Dad was a Reagan fan
nicole: because you’re a patriot, dammit.
xxx: and a damn good one.
