How long ya gotta have it on?

At least another two weeks.

I'm mighty sorry ta hear dat, is dare anythin' ya need?

Well I should probably be glad it's coming off at all. [smiles] Thanks but I think I can manage a few more weeks.

It'd be a pretty big bother iffen it didn't get ta come off at all. *Nodded a little bit.* I jus' thought I'd offer.

Yeah. Don't think I'd be able to do my job ever again, I don't like that idea.

It's nice that you did offer, I appreciate it.

What do ya do for work? Do ya miss it a lot?

I like bein' helpful, an' I got some food I gotta get rid of.

Well, when I'm not wearin' a cast, I work in a theater. [snorts] Yeah, I miss it.

Food, huh? [chuckles] Now I'm thinkin' I made a mistake turning you down.

Oh, are you an actor?

I can still drop somethin' off, iffen yer hungry.

[laughs] Oh no, I'm not an actor, [chuckles] the key word I used is 'work', I make sure plays go on despite what actors do on stage.

Well if you're offering, sure.

Oh, well I guess I jus' assumed. So ya work behind de scenes an' stuff?

I'll drop somethin' off, I don't wanna be a bother or nothin'.

[shrugs] It's a logical assumption to make, though a lot of the time people assume I work in a movie theater. Yeah, I do a lot of things backstage, make sure scenery comes in and out, props go on and off stage, lights and sound, all of it.

's no bother at all, really.
