Yeah. I think you’re right. Still it just seems so unfair that something that was so easy to start is so hard to break out of. 

That's probably why they call it a bad habit. I'm glad I never really got the chance to start. I'd probably get pretty sick if I did.

...

You look like you need a good movie or something.

Need One So Bad...

No, I don't think it would be. I've never smoked so I don't really know what it's like but I've heard chewing on cinnamon sticks is helpful.

It’s pretty bad. We usually alternate. Take out, go out, take out, go out.

Maybe you should look up some really simple recipes online? That's what I did. Now I can at least feed myself without take out most of the time.

The dog could probably do a better job than either of us. He can at least catch his food.

Is it really that bad? How are you guys going to survive? You can't eat take out forever. Well I guess you could but it'd be pretty bad for you.

I can’t cook at all, Harmony can’t either so it’s takeout or let the dog give it a whirl.

Man, so you have absolutely no other options? Maybe one of you two should take a class on cooking. I think the dog might just burn your house down.

Even after roughly three weeks of it?

Three weeks might be pushing it a little bit. But I used to eat out a lot in college because I couldn't cook terribly well.

Take out it is.

Nothing wrong with take out.

Is there any good place to play poker around here? I’m gettin’ tired of playin’ online. 

Hmm. I don't know. I'm not really big on gambling. Maybe if you go down to the Outlaw they might play there.

Wow, that totally sounds like something that would happen to me. I’ve never been to Miami but I’ve always wanted to go.Do people there really party all night on the beach until the break of dawn?  I bet Miami is a hundred times more exciting than Pickens. What made you want to come here?

Miami is a really amazing place. I'm really glad I grew up there. You should definitely go if you ever get the chance, you won't regret it. Uh, it's not quite that outrageous. They like to chase you off the beach if it gets really late but for the most part it was like that. I only went out to the beach where that happens a couple of times before I moved to NYC. Well, I was really burnt out from working on my masters so my parents told me to take a break and they recommended I move here for a while.

Back ache?

Along with a neck ache and everything in between. I'm just really stiff.

Whenever I have to read boring stuff, I make it a point to read it in bed for that very reason. I fell asleep at my desk way too often in college. So what about Miami has you suffering through boring articles? Is that your dream destination or something?

I will definitely have to remember that for next time because this is really annoying. I know how that feels. I fell asleep in a library during college once. No one noticed and I ended up getting stuck inside. Oh, Miami's my hometown. Sometimes I get curious and look to see if anything has happened.

Oh I can just imagine the terrible crick in the neck you can get from that.

That's it exactly. It's killing me right now. Maybe I need a hot shower.

Oh man. Was it a boring article or just really long? 

It was both. But somehow it managed to keep me reading it. I think it was about something in Miami, but I don't remember it too well. Probably the only reason I was reading it to be honest.

They’re easy to make need be.

You can make heating pads?

Were you studying or working really hard or something? 

Well I was Skyping my my brother and he just was asking a ton of questions. Then I had to talk to my parents. I think I was reading an online article after that, so that must have been when I fell asleep.

Reckon’ you could do with a heating pad of some sort, huh?

That would be nice. I'm not sure if I have one around here. I'll probably have to go on a search for one pretty soon. I haven't needed one in a while.
