Eric sensed Pam's wonderings about his new disposition. He would never be able to admit to Pam how Sookie was bringing back his human feelings. He also realized that he was going to have to let some of that go and get back to business while he was at work.
Eric made necessary phone calls to get everything in order for the club. He put a "now hiring" advertisement out hoping to get some sort of response from the locals. He did his best to put some inflection back in his voice, to sound more like his old self.
Not knowing how long it would be before he could see Sookie again was enough to help him get some of his expected temperment back. "Förbanna*," he yelled as yet another person hung up on him.
