Charlie Brown sits in the chair looking in a pamphlet.<BR><BR> He says,"It's funny...just looking at an ad for a hotel that shows an empty lobby makes me feel lonely"<BR><BR> He grimaces and slumps his face on the arm of the chair; he says,"I don't want to grow up, and leave home, and travel and love in hotels..." Sally approaches, spreads her hands, and replies,"You have to..you can't stay home forever!"<BR><BR> She continues,"And as soon as you leave, I get to move into your room!"<BR><BR> He stands in front of her and points his finger at her. He says,'Ha! But you'll have to leave, too! You can't stay home forever, either" She exclaims,"I can't? Who says so?"<BR><BR> He replies,"That's the way it is" She turns her back and says,"I don't believe it!"<BR><BR> He holds a sheet of paper in his hand and has the other in the air. He concludes,"You'll find out! Everyone has to leave home!"<BR><BR> She walks off. She slumps on the bean bag, watching t.v., and holding a bowl of ice cream. She says,"Turn the t.v. up loud, crawl into a beanbag with a bowl of ice cream and don't think about it"<BR><BR>
“Everyone has to leave home sometime, but sometimes HOME DOESN’T LIKE IT.”—painted on the house currently standing on top of the Wicked Witch of the East (by way of Gregory Maguire, Wicked )
