Pretty Woman

Chapter 81
"What are you working on today?" Sam asked.
"I'm just ordering signage from 'Eurogirl.' That's my name for her." Simmy answered.
"Cool! Did she like my drawing or did she think it needed to be 'redrawn,' like I wanted to do," Sam griped.
"I told you it was great! It was large and simple and readable. That's all she needs."
"Don't forget to order two signs for the windows of the Hummer."
"Oh, I definitely need to tell her about those," Simmy dashed off an email.
"Why do you have your guitar out? Getting back to playing it or photo- op?" Sam asked.
"Photo- op! The only song I ever played really well was 'Pretty Woman.' My guitar teacher thought that chord progression was a really great one. Wow! I haven't thought about him in a long time. Long, hippy hair,..." Simmy suddenly threw herself into a song... "'...and the sign said, long-haired freaky people need not apply... So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why..."

"Are people going to need a membership card to get into your place?"
"No... just like the Riverwood place we go to... 'And the sign said everybody welcome, come in, kneel down, and pray, But when they passed around the plate at the end of it all, I didn't have a penny to pay, so I got me a pen and a paper, and I made up my own little sign... I said thank you Lord for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine...
Sign, Sign, everywhere a sign..."
Thank you Five Man Electrical Band
