“You don’t have to fight for all the things, Tracy. Just focus on a few!”
“You’re right. I can do better on a few things, instead of just okay - or worse - on all the things!”
“That’s right! You can...wait. What are you doing?! We just discussed this!!”
“Fighting for all the things! All of them!”

Me glancing at cigarettes: I want one.

Glances at the door: But it's cold out there.

Glances at the cigarettes again: I'm a slave to your will, aren't I?

Cigarettes in a snooty voice: 21 years and counting girl...

Me: I'm going out there, aren't I?

Cigarettes: Either that or you're going to keep writing this toot, and people already think you're crazy.

Me: God damn it, I hate when you're right...
