I'll be honest, then my relationship with Dan deteriorated somewhat, because the next email I got was this:
实话实说，那之后我跟Dan的关系在某种程度上就恶化了，因为我发现下一封邮件是这样写的：
"Thanks for your email - your Case Number is ..."
“感谢您的邮件--您的处理编号是……”
That's outrageous. I said, "Dan?"
这真是让我哭笑不得。我说：“Dan，在吗？”
And I got -- and I was just like, this is ... -- and I, I .... And I said, "Danny?"
然后我收到的还是……这……让我……我说：“Danny，你在吗？！”
And I thought, this is terrible. All I'm doing is collecting case numbers. I said, "D-Dog?"
我觉得，这太糟糕了。我一直在收到这些处理编号。我说：“是电子狗吗？”
"The store is now open."
“超市现在开张了。”
I said, "But Dan, they must have wondered why there was no bouncy castle."
我说：“但是Dan，大家都会想为什么没有充气城堡吧。”
And then we were back to this.
然后又变成了处理邮件。
And that might have been the end of the story, but I remembered that anything -- everything
故事应该在此就结束了。但是我突然发觉，任何事--每件事
even something as mundane as getting out of a car, can be fun if you find the right game.
甚至于一些日常小事儿，如下车，只要掌握了正确的玩法，都能变得有趣。
So, this is what I replied:
所以，我就回复到：
Thanks for your email - your Case Number is #0000001.
感谢您的邮件—— 您的处理编号是#0000001。
And we just, uh ...
然后我们就……
It was like we were dancing. It was just a beautiful relationship. We just kept going. It was lovely.
这就像我们在翩翩起舞。就像我们是完美的关系。我们就这样进行下去。太和谐了。
But to be honest, guys, it was quite labor-intensive, and I had other stuff to do, believe it or not.
但是老实说，伙计们，这挺费功夫的，我还有别的事情要忙，不论你信不信。
