'Hey, what gives? You should be excited. This is your moment to be on top of the heap.'

'It's just been a long haul It's taken a lot out of me. I thought I would be excited, but feel my pulse - it's like I just woke up. You know what I really want to do right now? I want to order a burger from room service and see if there's a game on television. Or maybe go down to the bar and flirt with the German tourists. I could take this or leave it. I can't understand it. I cheat, bully, and lie to get what I want, only to find all the pleasure's already been squeezed out.'
