One thing at a time. [ He nods in agreement to that, however hard it is not to worry about everything all at once and say as much at the same time. ] They're good, too. The milkshakes. I only had one, though, didn't want to upset my stomach or anything my first day -- dairy can really take you by surprise, even if you're not lactose intolerant or anything. Isn't that a huge bummer? Um--

[ He folds the two fingers he's holding up back against his palm. ]

[ He smiles, like he told a joke. ]
