What a Valentine's Day Flop!

A couple of weeks ago I decided I'd had enough of all this hem-hawin' around with Miss Millie. It's about time I muster up some gumption and let the gal know I'm crazy about her.

I figured Valentine's Day would be the perfect time to make my feelin's known, so I ordered her a real pretty bouquet of flowers and slipped a note in tellin' her to meet me down at the pond at sunset.

My plan was to fess up and declare my intentions to start courtin' her, but as I neared the pond, much to my chagrin, there she was with that no-account Lucky!

When she saw me she lit outta there like a filly caught in a barn fire. Didn't even look me in the eye when she passed and never even mentioned the flowers.

I declare, I don't know what to make of that girl. She's enough to drive a cowboy to drinkin'!
