that had to be the single lamest excuse i 'd ever heard , but the tanning salon employees-some of whom may or may not have been affiliated with our bosses-were ecstatic at the idea of having a hypoglycemic almost-celebrity in their midst , and they carried him inside , at which point in time lucy somehow convinced them that she was the president of the heath shannon fan club and that she knew for a fact that he 'd been planning to go tanning that day , because he always went tanning on thursdays , and would it be okay if he used one of their booths ?
