What we've got? Failure to communicate.
That statement begs the question, why wouldn't you ever want to feel sober? Getting to heavy for you yet?
Nay, not yet. An' the answer is because things'r so much easier t'deal with under a slight haze o' bein' sloshed. Plus I do m'best work when m'drunk.
And do you get that often? Failures to communicate I mean?
Maybe you're communicating with the wrong people?
Usually work related so you're right, doll.
So find a new job? Or, maybe find people to talk to outside of work that do agree with you?
Show me where it's not? And it may be simple but it works. You need to find new people, that's all.
And don't say it's hard, you found me didn't you? And you weren't even trying. *waves her hand* Or maybe I found you. Either way, it still works out.

You're new. But, I think you found me, doll.
Yeaaa [sneaky grin] but that doesn't mean that I'm going to be the one to agree with you. It just means that I found you. This time, that is.
This time, next time. Why worry about things like that? You're here I'm here and looks like we're communicating alright to me.
We're communicating now, yes. But what if we keep communicating and we find out that your favorite color and my favorite color clash horribly? What if we find out that I'm into 'the Twilight Zone' and you're into 'Twilight'!

Twilight? Please tell me you're not talking about that sparkling vampire bullshit?
See, we're in agreement here too!
Now you just need to find more people like me to work with and you'll be fine. No more failure to communicate.

[she tilts her head and looks at him]
[suddenly serious] That depends. [long slow blink] What kind of job we talking about here?
[and back to the light-hearted banter] I work at the mall right now and all, so it has to pay better than that. And a couple more things, you know? [waves hand] but we can talk about that later.

Personal assistant. Run errands for me. Pick up my dry cleaning. Shop for me. Take my cars for detailing.
Pretty sure I can compete with mall wages.

Will it end up being one of those twenty-four hour, on-call things where I don't get a life? Because you seem nice and all, but if our favorite colors clash there's gonna be trouble.
Oh and hey, I don't have to wear a uniform, do I?
Oh and hey, I don't have to wear a uniform, do I?
What's you're favorite color, doll?
No uniform. Just be well dressed. No flip flops or jeans from Old Navy.

My favorite color is red, and I don't even own a pair of flip flops.
What's yours?
What's yours?
Red. Violent. Angry. Sexy. Who doesn't that surprise me about you?
Red, the best color for sunsets and wine, and fireworks and really, really fast cars. Of course it's my favorite color!
You know, you still haven't told me what your favorite color is yet. Annnd, you still haven't told me your name. But then again, I haven't asked that question. Yet.

I think we communicate quite well. Or, oh. You mean with someone else, right?
