Early in the Morning

Gene: It’s time to get up!

Ed: I just went to bed!

Gene: You shouldn’t have stayed up so late watching TV. I told you we had to get an early start.

Ed: I know, but that movie was just too good to leave. I guess I’ll just have to pay the price and be sleepy.

Gene: Do you want to eat breakfast here?

Ed: No. Why don’t we just grab a bite at the coffee shop next door?

Gene: Okay by me.
