– I think I really messed up this time.
– What did you do now?
– I wish I hadn’t gotten out of bed today.
– Is it that bad?
– Yes, if only I could change the past.
– Are you sick? Don’t even think of getting close.
– I’ll be fine, as long as I figure something out before he notices.
– “He” who?
– All I need is for today to just pass quickly.
– Yeah, but that's not going to happen. Could you at least tell me what this is about?
– I'd settle for knowing how he'll react.
– React to what?
– Whatever it is, I'm fine as long as everything goes well afterward.
– Did you know that talking to you sometimes feels like talking to a wall?
– I'm fine with that. All that matters is that the dialogue be understandable.
– I, for one, haven't understoond a single word.
– You’d say whatever it takes to prove I'm not fluent.
– You really are fluent in nonsense.
– You know what? You're grounded from dessert.
– Great, I’ll put that on my resume.
An interesting dialog. The parts are fine. I could not understand the global context. However, the "ungrounded" nature of the conversation reminds me of Kafka. Perhaps modern conversations are ungrounded and almost existentially absurd?
