Jun Dialogue
- andrew
Happy New Year, boys!
- lacy
What?
- none
Remember two years ago when we proposed that pride should be the day that we reset the Awkward Clock?
- lacy
You bet I do. I look forward to it months in advance.
- andrew
Well, it's that time again.
- david
And not a moment too soon.
- lacy
Let's make Last Monday the official date of observation.
- adam
Do we need to invent a tradition to mark the change?
- lacy
Like group hugs?
- david
Or standing under the Olafur Eliason waterfalls, and letting them wash away the awkward?
- andrew
How about we each take a private moment, with our first — no — second drink, and toss it back like we're putting out the trash. Then, fortified, we return our focus to those around us.
- david
Perhaps a cocktail that says regret?
- adam
Long Island Iced Tea?
- david
Uh, gross.
- lacy
How about an Old Fashioned?
- andrew
Bitters, whiskey, sugar, soda, and a maraschino cherry.
- david
Perfect!
- lacy
But let's not chug it. Let's sip it.
- andrew
Yes. The new year should be savored.
