I'm sick. //John: Do you need to go to a doctor?/Miriam: What I need is my @#&$! bottle of whiskey! Where did I put that @#&$! thing?//John: C'mon, let's go to the store. We'll pick up some juice and cold medicine./Miriam: Caffeine is what I need. Is there any coffee? Or soda?//John: If you're not feeling better in an hour or so, we'll just get a room. That way you'll get a chance to rest and recuperate before you get any worse. /Miriam: &#$@!, I need a cigarette, where's my lighter?//John: Miriam, do you ever wonder how it is that you're still alive? /Miriam: I dunno, but I'm pretty sure I've entered the punishment phase.
