“I had this guy leave me a voice mail at work, so I called him at home, and then he emailed me to my BlackBerry, and so I texted to his cell... and now you just have to go around checking all these different portals just to get rejected by seven different technologies. It’s exhausting.”
It's an hilarious scene, full of Barrymore's charm!
