This is my first try at one of these, so my apologies in advance...

Lois grumbled and reached over to grab the phone. "Whatever it is, it'd better be important. Do you have any idea what time it is?!" She rubbed her eyes, trying to wake up a little.
“Lois! Lois! Lois! Doll, Babe, Sweetie, it’s Jimmy, the Jim-meister, the Jiminator!”
"Huh?"
“I so won! Lois, guess what? Guess what?! I know who Superman is!”
"*Superman*?" She sat up a little straighter, a frown crossing her features. "Have you been drinking?"
“Maybe a little bit. Ok. A whole lot of a little bit."
Her hand came up to rub her eyes again. "Calm down, okay? I can't follow a word you're---"
"I’m so going to bury you, Lois! Kerth, baby, you are mine!”
"*Married*?!" She glared at the phone. "You *have* been drinking."
“Yeah, CK took me out to this new club. They had this new kind of drink and it was so cool. The club is so rockin’. And then he had to go…” Jimmy laughed. “Fly!” He laughed again. “Fly, away, little birdy fly! I wonder if I can fly too? If I hold up one of my arms…”
"Uh huh. What?! No! No, that's a very bad---just---just stay right where you are, okay? In fact...do you want me to come get you?" She started to climb out of bed.
“Get me? Nah, Lois. CK’s back. Oh, look. He’s Superman. Uh-oh. He’s looking at me with those intense eyes that you love, Lois.”
"What? Oh, he is? That's...that's good, then, I guess."
“Don’t worry about me, Lois. I’ll just fly home with CK.”
"Yeah, you do that. I'll see you tomorrow, then?"
“Not if I see you first. CK, let’s do a fly by… Lois’s apartment.”
"Okay. Goodnight."
“This night so totally rocked, Lois. Oh, and Lois, CK told me to tell you not to believe a word I've been saying 'cause I've been drinking.”
Lois hung up the phone, yawning as she settled back into bed. It was only a matter of seconds before sleep reclaimed her.

Oh, yeah. That was totally awful. But fun. Thanks, Queen of Capes.
