Chef,  
Okay that does it. You’ve done it now, you bastard. How could you? _sways, near fainting_  
Cole Porter? You’ve just broken all my defenses…totally vulnerable…at your mercy…

_Chef scoops up struuter in his mighty arms as the screams of Michi’s waxing session blend with someone doing Guns 'n Roses karaoke_

Come with me, kitten, and I’ll serenade you while we get romantic.

_croons_  
Day by day…I’m fallin’ more in love with you  
And day by day…my love seems to grow  
There isn’t any end to my devotion  
It’s deeper, dear, by far, than any ocean

I find that day by day…you’re making all my dreams come true  
And come what may…I want you to KNOWWWWWWWWW…  
I’m yours alone, and I’m in love to stay  
As we go through the years day by day

Geez-o-Pete, a girl is gone for five minutes and Chef has taken off with someone else. Hrmph. And for the record, that was not ME screaming. That was the guy who wanted to watch.

Chef…  
You are a bad man. _snuggles into his arms and grazes nails across his bare chest_ I won’t have the strength to much more than willingly submit to you if you don’t stop that crooning. You’ve obviously come across one of my weaknesses…I’ve got others. Please. Find them.

Chef…  
I thought you might get a kick out knowing I hit 300 posts in your arms.

Personally, I can’t think of a better place. _smooch_

Michi, come along with us…that teddy is entrancing, and now that I’ve discovered what a Brazilian wax IS, I’m anxious to look at it up close. I’m such a big man that you and struuter could be on either side of me and neither of you would be able to see the other.

_feels nails on chest and looks down in surprise to see my apron is gone_

I know I’ll be chastised by the men at the party for monopolizing two lovelies such as yourselves, but hey…that reminds me of the perfect song for Michi, in honor of my chances of tearing her away from all her admirers…

_crooning a la Johnny Hartman_

You are too beautiful, my dear, to be true  
And I am a fool for beauty  
Fooled by a feeling that because I have found you,  
I could have bound you, too…

You are too beautiful for one man alone  
For one lucky fool to be with  
When there are other men with eyes of their own  
to see with

Love can’t stand sharing  
Not if one really cares  
Have you been comparing  
My every kiss with theirs?

If, on the other hand, I’m faithful to you  
It’s not from a sense of duty  
You are too beautiful, and I am a fool  
For beauty.

(Note: the sentiments in this song do NOT apply to you and struuter sharing ME - only to ME sharing YOU with all the undeserving men in this room.)

Good, because I don’t do that. And not only don’t I do that, whenever I do I am reminded why I don’t.

Sunshine, perhaps you’d like to come up to the second stage . . . er, floor or this building and help me test out my theory that thinner air leads to . . . how shall I say, a more close connection to one’s own body.

Don’t bother going upstairs if you hear any noise, y’all.

Whew! Boy am I glad I was born without a conscience …having one sounds like a real drag.

Ssskuggiii, I LIKE your attitude!

Here’s a song for YOU:

"…And when God gave out rhythm, he sure was good to you  
You can add, subtract, multiply, and divide by two  
I know today’s your birthday and I did not buy no rose  
But I wrote this song instead, and I call it “Popsicle Toes”

Popsicle Toes  
Popsicle toes are always froze  
Popsicle Toes  
You’re so brave to expose all those Popsicle Toes…

You must have been a Ms. Olympia, with all that amplitude  
How come you always load your Pentax when I’m in the nude?  
We ought to have a birthday party, and you can wear your birthday clothes  
Then we can hit the floor and go explore those Popsicle Toes

Popsicle Toes  
Popsicle toes are always froze  
Popsicle Toes  
You’re so brave to expose all those Popsicle Toes…

You got the sweetest North America this sailor ever saw  
I want to feel your warm Brazil and touch your Panama  
Your Tierra Del Fuegos are nearly always froze  
We got to see-saw until we unthaw those Popsicle Toes

Popsicle Toes  
Popsicle toes are always froze  
Popsicle Toes  
You’re so brave to expose all those Popsicle Toes…
