- I just took a selfie with a cow. - Sad thing is, I think the cow is in better shape than I am. - Definitely cleaner. I've been under a car for a good portion of the day. - I'm pretty sure you don't want to be standing next to me right now. I probably smell like a bad mix of oil and farm animals. - Also, did you see the cornfield yet? I'd thought I was in heaven for a moment there.

- Not making much progress with the vehicles. - I need more parts; they want more things. In a bit of a standstill right now. - Never thought negotiations would be this tough. I might as well go out and look for everything I need on my own. - I don't know if it's just me, but they seem kind of hesitant to help out here. - But that could be the frustration talking.

- How would you like to help me charm some stubborn mechanics later today? - I could use an extra hand with the cars if we're ever going to make any progress. - Which is not much because I've been bumping heads with them all day. - I get the feeling that they might be more receptive if you're around. - How are you feeling now, by the way? You and the others settling in okay?
