Delaying Making a Decision
Thomas: You’ve hemmed 1 and hawed for weeks. It’s time to make a decision.
Eugenia: I know, but I need to sleep on it. This is a very big decision.
Thomas: You’ve dragged your feet for far too long. Are you having second thoughts?
Eugenia: No, no second thoughts. I just want to be absolutely sure I’m making the right choice. I’m on the fence between two options. We’ll have to live with this decision for years.
Thomas: I thought you’d already made a tentative decision days ago.
Eugenia: No, no, no. In my mind, the jury is still out.
Thomas: You can’t leave everyone hanging.
Eugenia: I know that, but how can I choose if I’m not 100% positive about either option.
Thomas: I understand that, but it’s now down to the wire. You’ve got to bite the bullet and decide.
Eugenia: I know. If only I had a few more days to think about it…
Thomas: Too late. They’re here.
Eugenia: The painters are here?
Thomas: Yes. So will this be a blue or green house?
Eugenia: How about stripes?
