be funny,
don't be sick
or coughing,
or too tired,

don't smoke,
don't bring
a friend, or
your sister,
don't wear
a sweatshirt
or flip flops,
leave your

your dog too,
have something
to say and not
just about the

and actually have
some money or
a card to give
the impression

help pay, don't
go powder your

check comes,
and bring a
mint, just in
case.
