As my wife greeted me one evening, her voice came through the door, "Guess what?"
I always take a deep【C1】______on this very leading question. "What?" I asked.
"I just won a sales contest at work and the【C2】______is dinner for two at the new fancy restaurant down by the river-front!"
She was so【C3】______. We knew the restaurant was extremely good. "See? I told you there would be a【C4】______for me to wear my new spring outfit," she shyly reminded me.
"【C5】______can play at that game," I responded, "I will wear my gray suit, my Borsalino-imported straw hat and a new silk tie. We will be well【C6】______." It was early【C7】______and nearing dusk as the waiter took us to a table by a window, with a(n)【C8】______of the river. And the table was【C9】______set, with a smoke-gray table cloth and bright colored napkins.

"Probably your new straw hat or your【C15】______," she said.
After receiving many smiles, we【C16】______ourselves back at the restaurant, looking at ourselves in the【C17】______. It was then that I saw the【C18】______for all the smiles.
Caught in the fly of my trousers and【C19】______down for all to see was a bright red【C20】______from the restaurant!
