Errr... [John scratches at his cheek.] No offense, dude but you do look really uptight. Of course, after actually talking to you you can tell that that is...

[Exactly the case. Mouth, prepare to recieve foot!]

Well I mean, you have your reasons. So it's not necessarily a bad thing! Just... while you leave a good first impression there is also this distinct sense of... what's the word I'm looking for here... [He gestures vaguely with his hands. As though this totally explains it. Ah, yes, the vague right hand cupping motion! Message received, Mr. Egbert. Loud and clear.]

"This guy could probably use a chill pill. Or ten."

[John that's not a word, okay? That's like ten words.]

But like you said, it's not a bad thing! I mean, you make it work and there's nothing wrong with having different priorities. Just... [He raises his arms up before letting them fall, looking somewhat defeated.]

I don't know where I was going with that, forget I said anything. [He sticks out his index fingers on both hands, rotating them backwards one over the other in midair. At least this hand motion is slightly less vague and he proceeds to further clarify it:] Rewind the tape, re-record over it. Bzzrrrzzzrrzzzvrrpppttt!

So, yes, it's a good thing that you don't sleep in it!
