:38:00
- She's good.
- Yeah?

:38:02
Oh, yeah. You?
:38:04
Fine. Sent her flowers.
:38:08
Yeah?
That's funny. Me too.

:38:13
I'm not picking out china patterns
or looking for our dream cottage...

:38:16
but it's good.
:38:19
It's a lot of fun, actually.
:38:22
I think so too.
:38:27
So you're liking her better then.
:38:30
I don't know. Better?
:38:34
I'm not sure.
It's just that every so often...

:38:37
I'll look over there and think...
:38:40
"You know, I could almost
see myself with this person."

:38:43
I mean, not when she's talking. Then you
just want to slip down a side street...

:38:48
hope no one heard her swallowing
her tongue trying to get a sentence out.

:38:52
But a couple of times...
Maybe it's this look she gives me...

:38:58
or this feeling shoots up the nerve
endings as she touches my arm.

:39:02
Just squeezes it.
:39:06
I mean, we're sharing a Slurpee,
for God's sake.

:39:09
I don't know.
I look at her, moments like that...

:39:12
and I can see, you know,
kids and Volvo in the garage...

:39:17
all that crap in-between.
:39:21
- She's definitely got something.
- Serious? I mean, that's...

:39:25
I don't mean exactly that,
but, hell, I don't know.

:39:28
You've been out with her.
You get that at all?

:39:31
Just every so often.
:39:34
- You?
- Sure, kind of.

:39:41
Really?
:39:43
Well, I mean, yeah.
She's kind of nice, you know?

:39:48
I know.
:39:50
It's an odd twist, all considered.
:39:52
That's true.
:39:54
Yeah, just see how it goes, I guess.
:39:56
Yeah.
:39:58
It's a serpentine road
we travel this life.
