I'll be there in a minute.²

Do you want me to dish you up?³

Sure.⁴

Are we sitting at the table?⁵

Doesn't matter to me.⁶

Do you want wine?⁷

Sure.⁸

Here you go.⁹

Mmm. What did you marinate this or something?¹⁰

Soy sauce and ginger.¹¹

It's good.¹²

So how was your day?¹³

Fine. How was yours?¹⁴

Busy.¹⁵

Well tomorrow is Friday.¹⁶

Do we have anything going on this weekend?¹⁷

I have a work thing on Friday. Shouldn't be too late though.¹⁸

Is that your holiday party?¹⁹

Yeah.²⁰

I thought you had your holiday party last week.²¹

That was for the department. This one is for the whole company.²²

I was thinking we could go check out coffee tables at the flea market tomorrow. ²³

Sounds good to me.²⁴

I'll find out what time they open.²⁵

¹Dinner is ready.

²Start without me.

³Are you too lazy to put food on your plate?

⁴I am too lazy to put food on my plate.

⁵Are you going to shut off the television?

⁶Can't we just eat in front of the television?

⁷Are you going to get drunk again tonight?

⁸I think I'll go ahead and get drunk tonight.

⁹Say you don't like it. I dare you.

¹⁰How do you manage to fuck up chicken?

¹¹Fuck you.

¹²I hate it.

¹³So. Did you get a chance to dispose of the bodies?

¹⁴I took care of the hooker. I thought we agreed we'd let the meter man live?

¹⁵Whoops.

¹⁶I cherish the fact that we're both so comfortable joking about death.

¹⁷I assume we'll continue to work on the time machine this weekend?

¹⁸If I make it back it time. Shouldn't be a problem though.

¹⁹Make it back from where?

²⁰The future.

²¹I thought you'd already come back from the future.

²²I did but I came back too far. I'm now about an hour and ten minutes behind us.

²³Maybe we could waste some time checking out coffee tables at the flea market tomorrow so you could catch up.

²⁴That just might work.

²⁵I'll find out what time they open.
