Cheapass Date

I'm in love !

I went on a cheap-ass date

With my best friend's brother's friend James

And

You know what ?

Turns out

He's as broke as I am.

Dinner-and-a-movie

Was BK and a Red Box flick

On his sofa

While his pitbull Harry

Begged for french fries.

And James

Gave me his last beer.

I'm in LOVE !
