Daily Dialogue — July 1, 2014

Tom: The beauty of quitting is… now that I’ve quit, I can have one… ‘coz I’ve quit. [puts cigarette in mouth] I mean, my jewelery… I don’t even inhale. [motions to pack of cigarettes] You wanna join me in one?
Iggy: Well, yeah, since I quit. 
Tom: Yeah, you can have one.
Iggy: I can do that.

Tom lights their cigarettes. They smoke, relishing it.

Iggy: Hey, boy. Thank you.
Tom: Yeah, know what I mean? Now that we’ve quit.
