I didn't go to college because I run the family farm.

I have never been on an airplane.

My favorite season is duck hunting season.

I had a girlfriend who eloped with my best friend one day.

My grandparents are dead.
I've a flower garden.
I owe two laptops.
I love watching anime.

I work on the generational land.

I've a fear of flying so I'll not try.

I like the time of the year when I can shoot down waterfowl.

My girl betrayed me with a man who I thought I was friends with.

I don't have any older relatives.
I've roses in my yard.
I work in the tech field.
I enjoy seeing japanese cartoons.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you? Could you tell me about yourself?

[Speaker 2] Great, thanks! Just working on 2 computers, after watching anime you?

[Speaker 1] Where do you work? I work on my family farm ; in fact, I run it!

[Speaker 2] That is nice I work in my moms flower garden!

[Speaker 1] Sweet! I did not attend university in order to operate the farm, but I've had bad luck.

[Speaker 2] That is okay for generations farms were inherited.

[Speaker 1] Speaking of bad luck my currently ex girlfriend hooked up with my ex best friend!

[Speaker 2] Wow.. Well at least she wasn't your wife

[Speaker 1] Have you ever been on an airplane? I've not had an opportunity to, yet!

[Speaker 2] Yes! I love them! Wish I could have been a pilot!

[Speaker 1] Tell me about it!! I'm a bit nervous to climb on a big ol jet airliner.

[Speaker 2] Why? Is it the heights or being crammed with people that scares you?

I run a family farm.
I didn't go to college.
I was cheated on. I'm not married.
I've never been on an airplane.
I'm afraid of planes.

I like to work on computers. I like Anime.

I am a gardener.

I love airplanes.

[Speaker 1] I'd like to get married someday, if I can find the right partner. I just met someone new online.

[Speaker 2] Oh really, do you like them?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, they seem really nice so far! They're from the countryside too so they know quite a lot about farming so it might be a good match!

[Speaker 2] Sounds like it could be a match. Are you hesitant to date again?

[Speaker 1] I am, it's so hard to find someone that you can completely trust. Plus trying to find someone who doesn't mind my long hours on the farm, and doesn't mind not travelling for holidays every year

[Speaker 2] Hmm, do you just stay on the farm for holidays since you hate flying?

[Speaker 1] I do travel to other areas locally, I don't mind driving a few hours to get away for a holiday. Not that I get away much, it's always so busy on the farm! Do you travel abroad a lot?

[Speaker 2] Yes my favorite is Tahiti. Too bad you don't like flying, there are lots of nice places around the world.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I can imagine that it's nice to get away and see all these different places. I don't feel like I'm missing too much though, I like my local area a lot and it's not worth the stress of having to go on a plane! Maybe this is why it's so hard to find a partner!

[Speaker 2] Probably LOL. I like gardening. Do you have any tips for tomatoes?

[Speaker 1] You need really good quality soil for them, or some good compost to give them. Give them the nutrients to grow nice and strong

[Speaker 2] Sounds good, I'll try it out.

I run a family farm. I enjoy farming. I spend long hours on the farm.

I didn't go to college.

I was cheated on before. I want to get married someday. I recently met someone online.

I travel locally within a few hours driving distance.

I know how to grow tomatoes.

I am a gardener.

I love airplanes.

I enjoy flying. My favorite travel destination is Tahiti.

I will try growing tomatoes.

[Speaker 1] It's been such a long day at work, maybe I really should plan a vacation.

[Speaker 2] You know that you can take a train if you want to go somewhere, but honestly, riding on planes is the most amazing feeling in the world.

[Speaker 1] It would definitely be good to push my limits and explore the world someday. Driving to the farmers market is enough for me though most days. How have your tomatoes been coming along?

[Speaker 2] I don't want to talk about that. The funeral for the baby plants is next weekend. I think that a vacation would make you enjoy your life so much more when you get home!

[Speaker 1] Ah that's a shame about the plants, well next time I will make sure to give you some tips. But I think you're right. I should try for somewhere warm, maybe Tahiti!

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, try it out there. If you go, I will go with you! We can enjoy the beach, get drunk together and watch the sun set every night!

[Speaker 1] No doubt, I will probably have to get head start on with the drinks on the plane to get over my fear of flying.

[Speaker 2] Oh nah, I get these pills from my doctor for my mom when she flys and they help her. But you want to make sure you take it as you board. Otherwise you will either be too sleepy to get on the plane or wont be calm enough when you get on! But if you do start drinking early, make sure you are ready for a chance to wake up in my room. I get frisky when I am drinking.

[Speaker 1] I will definitely keep that in mind! I'll be looking for a new computer sometime soon, that should help me plan this trip right so I might need your help.

[Speaker 2] Are you not good with computers?


I want to feel pretty.
I feel overweight.
I am a mother.
I want to be desired.

I wish I had money to travel.
I have an iq of 250.
My parents died in a plane crash.
I live alone with my dog.

I wish I was beautiful.
I need to loose ten pounds.
I'm a mom.
I long to be lusted after.

I want cash to see the world.
I'm very intelligent.
I became an orphan at an early age.
My pet keeps me company.

[Speaker 1] Hi! How are you today?

[Speaker 2] Hi my name is dana and my iq is 250.

[Speaker 1] Oh goodness! I wish I had that kind of an iq! What do you do with it?

[Speaker 2] My parents died 3 years ago in a plan crash

[Speaker 1] I am sorry to hear that, dana. Did their death give you super intellect?

[Speaker 2] I live with my dog named mack

[Speaker 1] Cute name does the k stand for something? Ketamine, maybe?

[Speaker 2] Nope it doesn't. I want the money to travel the world.

[Speaker 1] With your intellect, I imagine you can think of something! I'm too tied down to travel.

[Speaker 2] Well I think so I just do not know what.

[Speaker 1] Maybe invent a real way for people to lose weight, keep it off, and feel attractive?

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a pretty good idea.

[Speaker 1] Every neglected wife and mother would pay to feel desire!

[Speaker 2] What do you mean by that?

[Speaker 1] I feel like my husband does not notice me sexually. And other housewives feel that way, too.

[Speaker 2] Hmmm oh wow. Well maybe you need to confront him about it.

I'm too tied down to travel.

I'm married. I have a husband. I feel like I'm not attractive.

My name is Dana. My IQ is 250.

My parents died in a plane crash 3 years ago.

I have a dog named Mack.

I wish I had money to travel.

[Speaker 1] I'm getting a divorce.

[Speaker 2] Oh no, what is happening? Why did you decide to get a divorce?

[Speaker 1] My husband said the magic was gone. He wasn't in love any more. I fear it's because I gained wait and don't look like I used to.

[Speaker 2] Don't be silly. You look great. If you are sure this is what you want then you have my support. I guess marriage without love doesn't make any sense. Do you still love him?

[Speaker 1] I kind of do, but his attitude towards me make it tough. So it's just as well. It's hard to love someone who doesn't seem to like you back.

[Speaker 2] Well, there are many men around and nowadays with all the internet dating sites it's not difficult to find someone. At least for some romantic dinners.

[Speaker 1] Yes, I'm trying to stay optimistic. Anyway, enough of my troubles. How's Mack?

[Speaker 2] Ah Mack, he is a naughty little dog. Just yesterday he destroyed some flowers in my garden. Maybe you should get a dog as well now. You can trust them more than men.

[Speaker 1] I was just thinking that! There are worse things that destroying a garden. I thought about finally seeing Barcelona, though. Once the divorce is done, I may have more free time.

[Speaker 2] Yes, definitely. You should see the world. New chapter in your life. I wish I could travel more as well. Where else would you like to go?

[Speaker 1] Madrid. Or Tuscany, but I don't speak Italian at all. You really can't afford to take a vacation anywhere?

[Speaker 2] Definitely not this year. Still some of my loan left to pay off, after that hopefully I can finally start to travel more as well. I heard that Italy is beautiful, as well as Italian men :)

I'm too tied down to travel.

I have a husband. I feel like I'm not attractive. I am getting a divorce.

I've gained enough weight to change my appearance.

I try to stay optimistic.

I want to travel to Barcelona.

My name is Dana. My IQ is 250.

I have a dog named Mack.

I wish I had money to travel. I'm paying off a loan.

I am supportive.

I'm familiar with dating apps.

I have a garden.

[Speaker 1] I've planned out a weight loss agenda. Even if it's not the reason for the divorce, I want to feel better about myself.

[Speaker 2] What else are you doing to feel good about yourself besides the weight loss agenda?

[Speaker 1] I have actually been thinking about getting a dog. Since the dog will need exercise, I think it will help motivate me to exercise more. Plus, nothing beats the unconditional love of a pet. How has Mack been doing?

[Speaker 2] He is getting older, but still a sweetie. I was also wondering if you had considered taking Spanish classes?

[Speaker 1] Aw. I'm sure you take great care of him. I haven't considered it. What made you ask??

[Speaker 2] You had mentioned you wanted to travl to Barcelona, and it thought learning something new always makes me feel more confident and it could help you when you get to take your trip!

[Speaker 1] Ohhh well I actually know a little bit of Spanish already! I have traveled to Mexico many times when I was younger. Do you speak Spanish?

[Speaker 2] Oh, no. I was terrible at languages in school. Much better at math and science. Where in Mexico have you been?

[Speaker 1] Mostly in and around Mexico City. Have you ever been?

[Speaker 2] No, but I have always wanted to! What brought you to Mexico City? Work or vacation?

[Speaker 1] Vacation and visiting family. My uncle lives there! We should plan a trip together!

[Speaker 2] That would be awesome. You and your family must know all the best places to eat there!

[Speaker 1] I work at a ski resort, at the front desk.

[Speaker 2] Nice. I love sports. Especially swimming. I am pretty active every day.

[Speaker 1] I am too, I am terrified of the ski lift though, so I do not teach.

[Speaker 2] I can imagine. Do you like to be with friends? Or more of an introvert?

[Speaker 1] I love to be around people. They are so fascinating.

[Speaker 2] Me too. My parents always said I was extremely social. Any pets?

[Speaker 1] I have a husky, his name is dixon.

[Speaker 2] Huskies like cold weather. Makes since. I like horses.

[Speaker 2] Oh yes. I am going to culinary school. I have been told I am awesome at cooking.

[Speaker 1] I live near a big culinary school. My family moved here from across country.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow. That is exciting. What music you like? I love country music.

[Speaker 1] Country is okay but I prefer rock concerts.

[Speaker 2] I hear too much rock in the bar.

[Speaker 1] At least the bar does not play rap music.

[Speaker 2] Agreed. I don't like rap music.

[Speaker 1] I was raised on a farm and not really exposed to it.

[Speaker 2] I love the farm life!

[Speaker 1] Have a good night at work!

I love country music.

I don't like rock nor rap.

I like farming.

[Speaker 1] My family needs help on the farm and I was curious if you'd like to make some money with us.

[Speaker 2] That would be great as long as you can be flexible with my school schedule. I would love the farm experience.

[Speaker 1] Thats great, mostly we would need help early in the morning, so before school, and later in the evening so after.

[Speaker 2] Okay that will work maybe we can meet and discuss the details next week. I am looking forward to it already, what kind of work will I be a part of?

[Speaker 1] Mostly just taking animals out, and putting them back in each day. Maybe some more involved stuff at weekends when you had time.

[Speaker 2] Okay great. I have minor experience with horses and chickens, lol. My sister has a farm herself in Vermont.

[Speaker 1] Ok, the horses experience should help, as long as you are confident with animals you will be fine. We have a a cow herd of about 60, and also 30 sheep with 50 lambs, so its a lot of cattle. You will be helping me and my Dad so you wouldn't be doing it alone.

[Speaker 2] Of course not that would be a lot for a newbie, lol. Okay sounds good. I am looking forward to all the learning. Did you listen to country music growing up on the farm?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, Dad listens to loads, i am not really a fan, heard too much growin up!

[Speaker 2] I get that i really only like a very few specidic country artists that cross over into the bluegrass genre. I also drowned in country music every week at my grams house growling  up.

[Speaker 1] I really prefer Rock music, so much more exciting, im a huge fan of the band Rush, do you like Rush?

[Speaker 2] I do like that band. Rock music is nice, I have to be in the mood though. So do you grow veggies on the farm? I would love to cook with some farm fresh vegetables.

I used to be a waiter.

My sister lives in Vermont and has a farm. I have experience with horses and chickens.

I prefer bluegrass music. I spent a lot of time at my grams house growing up.

I like the band Rush, but not always Rock music. I like to cook.

[Speaker 1] I found one other person to help, but they can help while you're in school.

[Speaker 2] Great! I would love to help more, but I am swamped this semester. When school is out, I am there as much as you guys might need me.

[Speaker 1] Amazing! Summer is the best time of year to be on the farm anyways, in my opinion. The weather is just gorgeous.

[Speaker 2] I can't wait. I need more fresh air between the bar and class.

[Speaker 1] It'll be tons of fun! We also bought a big wireless speaker, so we've started playing music outside when it isn't raining.

[Speaker 2] Oh, cool. I will make us a playlist!  Any requests?

[Speaker 1] We'll have to do Rush, of course. Maybe throw in some bluegrass too? That'll be awesome.

[Speaker 2] Hey, I was thinking, some of my professors might give me a class credit for working on the farm since it is related to my major. But your Dad would have to fill out some paperwork. Do you think he would?

[Speaker 1] Definitely! It's been pretty quiet on the farm this winter, so he's not busy at all! Just send it over and we'll fill it right out.

[Speaker 2] That is so nice of you, and your Dad. I wish I could have found more people willing to help you guys out but everyone I asked said no.

[Speaker 1] That's such a shame! I'm so glad we were able to work something out.

[Speaker 2] I know you said that there were cows, sheep and a few lambs. Are there any other animals on the farm?

[Speaker 1] no problem. Yeah actually they're the ones pushing me to apply for a medical school. I'm not interested at all. My passion is acting. performing in Broadway someday!! Have you ever been in an act?

[Speaker 2] Oh sorry to hear, that is unfortunate. I would say don't give up on your dream. Maybe you could still work in plays on the weekends and nights, time allowing. I've actually never been in a act before! Are they fun?

[Speaker 2] I am going to be in the area on Saturday, but my husband will be out of town. So I will be at the park, where I go on days I am working all alone. I will not even charge you for your first dessert! Have you played in anything good recently?

[Speaker 1] I'm the understudy to the main lead in Hamlet. It's a small production but it's a start.

[Speaker 2] I bet that will be amazing. Do you think you will get to do at least one show?

[Speaker 1] I don't know. It depends on whether or not the main lead is available or not. But I'm not quite sure it's going to mean that much. Our last show there was only 22 people lol

[Speaker 2] I can hand out flyers with my orders for the rest of the time between now and your next show if you email me something.

[Speaker 1] Oh that would be amazing! Capacity at the venue is 100 so we can definitely use more people. You're awesome!

[Speaker 2] Anytime! I love to support the underdog, and you are fighting to get into something besides what you are studying. that is always a slippery slope. I am down to help all I can

I'm immature.

[Speaker 1] Hope your day is a nice one!

[Speaker 2] Hello, it is going great! Having lunch now, have you ate?

[Speaker 1] I have not. I have some fresh fish but don't like to eat them.

[Speaker 2] I love fish, veggies, not so much.

[Speaker 1] I enjoy fishing at the creek. What do you do for fun?

[Speaker 2] I'm a runner, I love marathons.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun! I'm a fan of the outdoors myself

[Speaker 2] How old are you? I'm 19.

[Speaker 1] I am 34. I also enjoy beers at the creek when I fish.

[Speaker 2] I am too young to drink anything stronger than soda

[Speaker 1] Yep the drinking age is 21 in my area.

[Speaker 2] Mine as well, I did have wine when we were in europe.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun! I've been to europe when I was younger

[Speaker 2] We go each summer, I love paris and milan.

[Speaker 1] I've not been to either of those places but they look nice in pictures!

[Speaker 2] We love france and italy.

I don't like fish.

I like fishing.

I like the outdoors.

I'm 34 years old. I like drinking beers.

I have visited Europe.

I've never been to Paris. I've never been to Milan.

I don't like veggies. I love fish.

I run marathons.

I'm 19 years old.

I don't drink alcohol. I drink soda.

I drank wine while I was in Europe.

I go to Europe each summer. I love Paris. I love Milan.

I love France. I love Italy.

[Speaker 1] How is your marathon training going?

[Speaker 2] It's ok I guess. I haven't really felt that motivated lately. What have you been up to? Any decent fishing trips?

[Speaker 1] Not yet. I am saving up to go fishing in several places around Europe.  You have been correct?

[Speaker 2] Yes, Europe is lovely. Any particular places you have in mind?

[Speaker 1] I have never been to Milan or Paris so those are first on the list.  Do you recommend one over the other?

[Speaker 2] Oh those are brilliant choices! Both lovely cities in continental Europe. And definitely if you enjoy your wine.

[Speaker 1] Which one should I go to if I can only pick one?  I want to get the most out of my trip since it is expensive and I have never been

[Speaker 2] Good question, if it's your first time visiting Europe I would probably recommend saving up a bit more so you can go to as many countries as possible. If I absolutely had to pick one I would go for Paris though. Which cuisine do you prefer? That could be a determining factor.

[Speaker 1] Oh, I love all food but I would love a classic pasta on my journey.  I never thought food would be a factor so I am glad you asked.  I want to stay away from vegan and vegetarian foods.

[Speaker 2] That's an interesting take, I don't really like veggies myself but I think vegan food has come a long way, at least when it comes to replacing meat. Don't think they will ever replicate fish though.

[Speaker 1] No one will ever replace fish!  On an additional note, I want to go somewhere where they have the best wine.

[Speaker 2] Well then, Paris it is!

I don't like fish.

I like fishing.

I like the outdoors.

I have visited Europe.

I'm planning on going to Europe. I want to visit Milan or Paris since I've never visited these 2 places.

I like food, but am not a vegan.

I like wine.

I don't like veggies. I love fish.

I'm 19 years old.

I don't drink alcohol. I drink soda.

I go to Europe each summer.

I love France and Italy.

[Speaker 1] Have you ever run a race in Europe? It might help motivate you.

[Speaker 2] I have not run a race there! That's a great idea. Do you do any running?

[Speaker 1] I used to trail run in my early 20's, but I am not much of a runner anymore. How has the marathon training been going?

[Speaker 2] I am the worst. I hate running when its cold. Or rainy. Or basically any time it isn't perfect weather. I have only been out for two runs in the past week. Why did you stop running?

[Speaker 1] Haha. Sounds like it isn't going to well. I stopped because I didn't enjoy it anymore.

[Speaker 2] Do you do any hiking?

[Speaker 1] Yup. I love hiking! It isn't as intense as running. What about you?

[Speaker 2] Me too! I have done a lot more of that lately than running. Where have you hiked?

[Speaker 1] Europe was probably my favorite location. Did you do any hiking while you were there? It's crazy how strong my legs were after my vacation!

[Speaker 2] No, I went as part of a school trip. We spent more times in museums and at historic sites. Where in Europe have you hiked?

[Speaker 1] Oh nice. I have been hiking in Iceland, Germany, and Scotland! Did you visit any of those countries?

[Speaker 2] No! We were in the southern part of Europe around the Mediterranean. I have always wanted to go to Germany. How long were you there?

I don't like fish.

I like fishing. I like the outdoors.

I have visited Europe. I want to visit Milan or Paris since I've never visited these 2 places.

I like food, but am not a vegan. I like wine.

I used to run in my early 20s.

I do not currently enjoy running. I love hiking. I have hiked in Iceland, Germany and Scotland.

I don't like veggies. I love fish.

I'm 19 years old.

I don't drink alcohol. I drink soda.I drank wine while I was in Europe. I've been to Milan and Paris.  I love Paris and Milan. I enjoy wine.

I go to Europe each summer.

I'm training for a marathon, but lack motivation lately. I do not like running in bad weather.

I love hiking.  I hike more than run.

I went on a school trip to Europe, but did not hike. I have not hiked in Iceland, Germany or Scotland.  I want to visit Germany.

[Speaker 1] I starting up running again.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! Why the change of heart? I didn't think you liked running, haha.

[Speaker 1] I figure that I'm getting to that age where I need to start being more fit. I don't really play sports, so that was the next best option since I used to do it.

[Speaker 2] I can understand that. I haven't been running in awhile but I'll probably start again soon. You've inspired me!

[Speaker 1] I really like when I run that I am able to just freely let my thoughts go through my mind. I sort of day dream when I am out of a run.

[Speaker 2] Yes, it's like meditative or something! So, are you working now a days?

[Speaker 1] I actually just quit a job and am looking for another. I put aside a good bit of money knowing that I would be without work for awhile, so it's not too anxiety inducing. Sort of thinking about it like a sabbatical.

[Speaker 2] That's a very responsible thing to do! I bet it feels nice to have a break. I've been working in an estate shop. I handle their social media engagement, marketing, and online sales.

[Speaker 1] It is absolutely nice to have a break. I'll go back before too long, but for now, it's nice for my mental health. Do you like the work you do?

[Speaker 2] Umm...somewhat. I enjoy getting to know our regular customers, but I'm not sure this type of work is for me. I'm just testing the waters for now.

[Speaker 1] Well, the good thing about a job is that you can always get a new one! If you find it's not for you, just be keeping an eye out for something else in the meantime.

[Speaker 2] Yes, absolutely! Have you done any fishing lately?

[Speaker 2] It is my parents they're suing me so I come home for the holidays.

[Speaker 1] I like being home, I am a georgia girl.

[Speaker 2] Do you watch a lot of tv?

[Speaker 1] I only watch a little bit, I am more into my violin.

[Speaker 2] You could play for me while I watch tv on mute

[Speaker 1] That would be a lot of fun, especially if chocolate is involved.

[Speaker 2] I mean, I'd be fine with that

[Speaker 1] That is good, do you like kids?

[Speaker 2] No, but I could. It depends

[Speaker 1] I want one boy and one girl some day.

[Speaker 2] Aw that's exciting! I know you have been wanting to get tickets for a while. When are they playing?

[Speaker 1] I am so excited! I have to fly to Miami to see them this April. Have you ever heard them?

[Speaker 2] That's not too far away! I haven't, I'm more into books than music to be completely honest.

[Speaker 1] Oh, do you live in Florida? What book(s) are you reading now?

[Speaker 2] I do! I'm reading a few different ones at the moment, I'm rereading 1984 which is one of my favourites. Do you read? Are you reading anything at the moment?

[Speaker 1] I love 1984! What a classic. I'm reading We Are Not From Here right now. It is really good, but sad.

[Speaker 2] I've never heard of it, but I'm intrigued. What's it about?

[Speaker 1] It is about 3 friends that are fleeing Guatemala for the US. It sounds like such a tough journey. Sometimes I have to put it down and pick up a good comic. What is your favorite mystery?

[Speaker 2] That does sounds hard. It sounds interesting, but I think I'll wait a little before reading a sad story. I think my next book will be a happy-ish one after 1984. I really liked Gone Girl, although I appreciate it's a bit overhyped. Whats your favourite comic?

[Speaker 1] I'm really in to REPRESENT! right now. I liked Gone Girl, but was disappointed by the next book I read by Gillian.

[Speaker 2] I've not read any other books but that's good to know, perhaps I'll give them a miss. I need to start getting into more comics, they are fairly new to me.

I read a lot.

I an obsessed with comics.

I like the book Gone Girl.

[Speaker 1] So, how is your sweet little kitten?

[Speaker 2] She's doing really well! We finally got her to stop clawing at the couch, so we don't have to watch her quote so much. How is your cat doing?

[Speaker 1] My cat is still being a pain, but I still love her.  What is your kitten's name?

[Speaker 2] Even when they're misbehaving, they're still adorable. It's hard to stay mad at them. Her name is Penny! How about yours?

[Speaker 1] Mine is named Stormy.  I think it fits his style.  I am flying into Miami in April.  How close is that to where you live?

[Speaker 2] What a great name! I live in Tampa Bay, so it's a little ways away. Still close enough for a road trip, though!

[Speaker 1] Do you have any recommendations for things that I should do in the Miami area?

[Speaker 2] It's an odd recommendation, but the Florida Panthers hockey team plays in Miami, and I really like going down for a game (especially when they play Tampa Bay.) It's a good break from the heat, and the team

[Speaker 1] Hmm...hockey is not really my thing.  I was thinking about maybe catching a Miami Heat basketball game.  They did go to the NBA finals last year.  Maybe that would be worth looking into.

[Speaker 2] Fair enough–it's definitely not for everyone. I haven't been to see a Heat game yet, but I've only heard great things from my friends who have!

[Speaker 1] Maybe I can find a cool comic book shop, as well.  I am sure Miami has to have something.

[Speaker 2] It definitely should–let me know if you find any good stores! I'd love to check them out myself.

[Speaker 1] The bank life is rough, I want to go out to eat. Want to take me?

[Speaker 2] I wish I could, but I'm so deep in this crochet project.

[Speaker 1] Never mind I guess. I thought I was important but I guess not.

[Speaker 2] With all my kids, do you think it might be a little late?

[Speaker 1] No I want to be important to everyone

[Speaker 2] I can understand that. God thinks you are important.

[Speaker 1] Thank you god. Finally someone does.

[Speaker 2] Do you need a hug?

[Speaker 1] Yes, several actually. I am usually polite but I am tired.

[Speaker 1] Hello how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Am fine, what can you never forget about your school days

[Speaker 1] Probably hating gym class the most

[Speaker 2] My great memory about school is when we jumped over the fence

[Speaker 1] I thought about getting something to eat I seem to be hungry all the time

[Speaker 2] Are you diabetic or your appetite is very high?

[Speaker 1] No my wife and kids think I should visit the doctor

[Speaker 2] Okay but if you do a lot of work you deserve to eat

[Speaker 1] Yes I do work a lot of hours every week

[Speaker 2] Have you put on a lot of weight or you have kept your normal weight

[Speaker 1] I've put on a lot of weight and feel bad about myself

[Speaker 2] Okay just exercise and see what it can do for a moment

[Speaker 1] Yes I should. I think I should buy a corvette to make me happy lol

[Speaker 2] Then if you are hungry try eating fruits only and avoid lots of junks

I hated gym class.
I am hungry all the time.
I have wife and kids.
I work a lot of hours every week.
I put on a lot of weight.
I like corvettes.

My great memory about school is when we jumped over the fence.

[Speaker 1] I just scheduled a doctors appointment.

[Speaker 2] When is the appointment set?

[Speaker 1] Its for tomorrow. I have actually gained a lot of weight from eating, and I need to go see a doctor now. Do you have any such problem?

[Speaker 2] Not with my weight. I should probably go for a physical soon, but I've been kind of busy.

[Speaker 1] You're so lucky that you don't have issues with your weight. Yes, definitely go do a physical as its just to be on the safe side. My problem is I hate gym, and I am hungry all the time, and that's why I keep gaining weight.

[Speaker 2] I wonder what the doctor will say. Maybe there's something that can curb your appetite?

[Speaker 1] Hopefully that is the case. Plus, I have to work a lot of hours every week, so it really hinders my physical activity. Wonder what's yours like?

[Speaker 2] I try to jog regularly, but I hurt my ankle recently. It reminds me of back in school, when we jumped that fence and I twisted it.

[Speaker 1] Is that still your great memory about school?

[Speaker 2] Yeah. LOL. You'd think there'd be something else. But I was never good at sports or went to a lot of parties.

[Speaker 1] I am sure everyone has their favorite memory that always remain forever with them. Mine would be so many memories to be honest. Those days were the best days!

[Speaker 2] Is that when you met your wife? High school?

I hated gym class. I dislike working out at the gym.

I am hungry all the time.

I have wife and kids.

I work a lot of hours every week.

I put on a lot of weight.

I like corvettes.

I have many good memories.

I need a physical examination.

I try to go jogging often. I recently hurt my ankle.

I am not good at sports.

[Speaker 1] I stumbled upon a really great memory of a fun time we had back in school.

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah?! What is it?

[Speaker 1] Lol I was walking my dog and I tripped over a tree root. Reminded me of the time when we jumped over the fence and actually stuck the landing lol.

[Speaker 2] I am not sure I could still jump the fence now, but it is funny that tripping made you think of that. How is the dog doing?

[Speaker 1] Yeah he's been great and he's been getting me out of the house since he's so energetic. Which is good because I need to lose some weight so having the dog has been great for me.

[Speaker 2] Maybe you and him could come jogging with me one day. It seems like he would love it. I don't go too fast, and we could take it kind of easy if you need. I would love to help you lose weight.

[Speaker 1] I appreciate that. I swear sometimes I wake up with absolutely no motivation to work out. Never really liked it at all. I read somewhere if you get a buddy to agree to workout with you it'll motivate you more. That's what I need.

[Speaker 2] I am free every morning before 7 a.m. and every evening after 7 p.m. We can go as often as you would like

[Speaker 1] Thanks! Appreciate it. But how's your ankle doing? Can you handle constant pounding on your feet?

[Speaker 2] It has been a few weeks since it got hurt, so I am doing ok now. I didn't break it and as long as I am not running, it should be fine. I am still using my brace when I jog just in case.

[Speaker 1] Ok cool. I can't run very long anyway but medium pace walking is good.

[Speaker 2] That sounds great! I cannot wait to get together. How often would you like to do this?


I'm single.
I love to shop.
I am in debt.
I've a lot of friends.

I'm a vegetarian.
I live on a pig farm.
I have allergies.
I wish that I lived in the city.

I don't date.
I hit the mall alot.
I do not have good credit.
I am very outgoing.

I don't eat meat.
I'm a farmer.
I am allergic to almost everything.
I am bored in the suburbs.

[Speaker 1] Hello how are you tonight

[Speaker 2] I am doing good. Just got done eating dinner. Being a vegetarian is quite restricting

[Speaker 1] I would imagine, my ex was one I eat meat though now single

[Speaker 2] Allergies make it a good diet for me, but living on a pig farm doesn't help

[Speaker 1] I'd imagine, I owe out so much I am lucky I can afford anything to eat

[Speaker 2] Wow. Do you live in the city?

[Speaker 1] Yes I do I am assuming you are in the country

[Speaker 2] Yes, but I so wish I could live in the city

[Speaker 1] That would be great then you could be my freind I've a lot

[Speaker 2] Sweet, I need more friends than the pigs!

[Speaker 1] I can understand that it must be boring

[Speaker 2] Yes, can I come visit you. I'll not make you eat vegetarian haha

[Speaker 1] Lol that sounds like a lot of fun

[Speaker 2] What else do you enjoy?

[Speaker 1] Shopping that's the best

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a lot of fun. I'd love to go

My ex was a vegitarian. I eat meat. I am single.

I owe out a lot of money.

I live in the city.

I have a lot of friends.

I love to shop.

I am a vegetarian.
I live on a pig farm. I have allergies.
I live in the country.

[Speaker 1] I emptied some space in my apartment so you can visit me.

[Speaker 2] I'd love to visit. What did you have to get rid of?

[Speaker 1] I got rid of old clothes and shoes so I would have more room to put things in the closet. Is there anything I shouldn't have in the apartment because of your allergies?

[Speaker 2] I am allergic to pollen, so it shouldn't be an issue. Thank you for asking. I'm excited to see the city!

[Speaker 1] Great! Have you been to the city before?

[Speaker 2] No, only the suburbs! Do you enjoy it? I bet its good for shopping.

[Speaker 1] Yes, I enjoy living in the city. It's great for shopping! Do you like shopping?

[Speaker 2] I LOVE shopping but don't get to enough because I live in the country. Not many shopping options. I'd like to go when I'm in town. Would you like to go with one of your friends, maybe?

[Speaker 1] Sure, I can invite another friend along. I will try not to buy very much, but it's fun to look! What is shopping like in the country?

[Speaker 2] I understand. It's hard not to buy some of the interesting stuff people make and sell! The country can be fun if you find the little shops and go to a farmer's market. Lots of fresh food and crafts you can't buy elsewhere. What else do you like to do with your friends? Have you been to the country much at all?

[Speaker 1] Sounds like unique stuff! I haven't been to the country very much. I don't have a lot of money to travel.

[Speaker 2] Maybe one day I can help get you out here on a "retreat"! I don't eat meat but I do live ona  pig farm so we have a lot of fresh pork chops and such. Maybe I can take you sometime.

I owe out a lot of money.

I have a lot of friends.

I love to shop.

I live in a cluttered apartment.

I am sensitive to other peoples' needs.

I live in the city. I am not very familiar with country life.

I am a vegetarian.

I live on a pig farm. I live in the country.

I am allergic to pollen.

I have never been to the city.

I like to shop at farmer's markets.

[Speaker 1] Next time you visit, could you please bring me some of those amazing home-grown veggies from the farmer's market?

[Speaker 2] Sure! Do you like to cook? Should i bring you anything in particular?

[Speaker 1] Yes. I love to cook! I am not the best at it though. Please bring me whatever vegetables you can spare. I can't think of anything in particular. What is your favorite vegetable right now?

[Speaker 2] Brussel sprouts. The bitterness is great with a lot of richer foods. Have you every tried to make a window garden?

[Speaker 1] I LOVE brussel sprouts! That would be amazing if you could bring me some! I haven't tried a window garden yet. There isn't much space in our apartment. One day when I have a place of my own then I will try a window garden.

[Speaker 2] When i was little I used to take clippings from plants around the house and grow them in glass jars on the window sill of my room. thats really how i got into gardening. But i am more of an introvert. Would you say you are extraverted?

[Speaker 1] Wow. I didn't realize you could do that! I definitely think I can be more introverted as well. When I get to know a person, I can become more extraverted.

[Speaker 2] Thats so funny, I never thought introverted people would do well in the city. What brought you there?

[Speaker 1] I have lived in the city most of my life. That is what is so great about it...there are so many people! It's so easy to hide among all the extraverts. There is always someone else trying to be the center of attention. It's fabulous.

[Speaker 2] Hahaha out here it is just me and the pigs... so i guess i am the talkative one of the bunch. Where are some of your favorite places in the city?

[Speaker 1] Haha I bet the pigs are great company! I think my favorite places would have to be my favorite stores! Do you want to go shopping when you visit?!

[Speaker 2] Umm, i mostly shop for the things i need around the house. I haven't been shopping for myself. Well...besides going to the thrift store when i wear out my jeans.

My ex was a vegitarian. I eat meat. I like vegetables. I am single.

I owe out a lot of money.

I have a lot of friends.

I love to shop.

I live in a cluttered apartment.

I am sensitive to other peoples' needs.

I love to cook. I am a beginner though. I love brussel sprouts.

I am shy until I get to know someone. I hide behind extraverts.

I am a vegetarian.

I am allergic to pollen.

I have never been to the city.

I like to shop at farmer's markets. I like brussel sprouts. I think they taste bitter and pair well with rich food.

I am an introvert. I have been gardening since I was a child.

I rarely shop. I shop at the thrift store.

[Speaker 1] How have your allergies been lately? Any new good finds at the farmers market?

[Speaker 2] Allergies are horrible this year. It seems like the pollen is out in force this year. I found some really good broccoli last week at the farmer's market, was so fresh.

[Speaker 1] have you ever tried growing broccoli in your garden?

[Speaker 2] I tried it one year but some groundhogs found it and ate it all.

[Speaker 1] groundhogs have to eat too, lol, it just dawned on me I never heard anyone growing their own broccoli

[Speaker 2] Maybe it's because the groundhogs eat it all so nobody bothers.

[Speaker 1] :), but I have tried grow brussel sprouts though but they came out very bitter

[Speaker 2] That sounds pretty good to me. I love bitter brussel sprouts.

[Speaker 1] we can trade my brussel spouts for your groundhogs

[Speaker 2] So, you are going to eat the groundhogs? I heard the meat isn't really good.

[Speaker 1] yuck, but I think they are very cute and make a good pet for an apartment

[Speaker 2] I don't think it's legal to keep them as pets. Might have to check the state rules on that.

[Speaker 2] I love when I go horseback riding, its like I work out

[Speaker 1] I work out as much as I can and sometimes I do not get enough.

[Speaker 2] I'm a proud mother of two handsome boys, and you?

[Speaker 1] Yes I'm a proud mother of one beautiful daughter.

[Speaker 2] I take my family camping just about every month, wanna go?

[Speaker 1] I wished I could I bet you have an awesome time.

[Speaker 2] We live in aruba, in a van down by the river

[Speaker 1] Wow I'm all the way in jersey. I love learning new things.

[Speaker 2] Jersey, like jersey shore? Girl we need to hook up, get our hair did

[Speaker 1] Yes I wished we could how far is aruba never been that far.

[Speaker 2] I will ship you some moon fish, in a box with ice on it

[Speaker 1] Oh that's sweet thank you so much enjoy your night. Sweetie.

[Speaker 2] 1, 921 miles to be exact

[Speaker 1] That's very long ways along from where I am.

[Speaker 2] Later gator, after while crocodile, not to soon baboon

I like to work out.

I like Justin Bieber too.

I work out often.

I have a daughter.

I live in Jersey. I love learning new things.

I love Justin bieber.

I love horseback riding.

I have two sons.

I go camping with my family every month.

I live in Aruba. I live in a van.

[Speaker 1] Listen to any Justin Beiber lately?

[Speaker 2] I just went to his most recent concert! It was so amazing he looked right at me.  How about yourself?

[Speaker 1] I can only relate to you. I am really a fan of Justin Bieber too. I haven't gone to any of his concerts as yet, but hoping to go to one. Did you attend more than one of his concerts?

[Speaker 2] I've been to every one he's had in my state and I will go to everyone he has in the future.  Have you ever been?

[Speaker 1] No, I've never been to any of his concert. Hopefully, I do get to go to one. What are your other hobbies apart from listening to his music? I like working out actually. Do you like doing that?

[Speaker 2] My sons are my hobbies.  They take up so much of my time with all the practices and parties they have but I wouldn't change it for the world. They have been practicing a lot of music lately so I am hoping if I support them they will become just like Justin!

[Speaker 1] I can only imagine being a parent is just a blessing. Its like you stop living for yourself, but your kids as I have a daughter too. I could give my life for her. Do you have any special activities that you do with your family?

[Speaker 2] We go camping every month.  I do not allow cell phones or electronics of any kind.  This really helps us connect on a level not known by many families this day and age.  What about yourself? Any hobbies you love in particular?

[Speaker 1] I couldn't agree with you more! Social life has overtaken each and everyone at the moment that families literally don't connect personally with each other. I like your strategy of not allowing cell phones. I think I will implement that too with my family. Well, personally, I love learning new things. Do you like doing that too?

[Speaker 2] I love learning anything new and travelling to new places. Luckily, since we live in a van, we are able to pick up and go wherever sounds nice and wherever the experience and knowledge are.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's interesting! I bet it must be so much fun living in a van? Where exactly do you live? I live in Jersey.

[Speaker 2] I live in Aruba at the moment.  Trying to give the kids a little experience on the beach so they can learn about marine life. Have you ever been?

I like to work out.

I have a daughter.

i'm a fan of Justin Bieber. I've never been to a Justin Bieber's concert.

I love horseback riding.

I have two sons.

I live in Aruba in a van.

I'm a fan of justin bieber. I've been to all Justin Bieber's converts in my state.

I love travelling.

[Speaker 1] Are you planning to travel to another state anytime soon?

[Speaker 2] I'm hoping to head back up to the US soon! Camping in Yellowstone has been on my bucket list forever, so that'll probably be my next trip.

[Speaker 1] That sounds wonderful. I also wanted to ask you how it feels like being in a Justin Bieber concert?

[Speaker 2] They're amazing! The energy of the crowd is incredible, and you meet so many cool people. Have you been to other artists' concerts?

[Speaker 1] Unfortunately, I have not been to a concert. I have been so busy with my daughter but I would  like to try to go to one sometime. Is it safe to go with kids?

[Speaker 2] I can definitely believe that–it's so hard to find the time with kids. For a Justin Bieber concert it's probably fine–his shows are pretty kid-friendly.

[Speaker 1] Well, if you are ever in Jersey, maybe we can both take our kids to a concert together.

[Speaker 2] Let's do it! They really love going to the shows, especially since we usually get dinner out beforehand. It's so fun to do things together with the family.

[Speaker 1] That sounds lovely. It's a date!

[Speaker 2] Perfect! I'll have to add Jersey to the list of trips to come up soon. Hopefully there'll be a show there soon.

[Speaker 1] Awesome. It was nice catching up. I will call you with the details.

[Speaker 2] Perfect! I look forward to it!

[Speaker 2] I barely have time for hobbies since I am a nurse.

[Speaker 1] Nurses have demanding schedules. Wall street is just a 9 5.

[Speaker 2] Wall street sounds exciting, my husband the fireman loves excitement

[Speaker 1] It can be. At least I enjoy wearing suits and ties.

[Speaker 2] I only get dressed up for my favorite sushi restaurant

[Speaker 1] Sushi is delicious, but I stay home to eat with my poodle nanette.

[Speaker 2] My kids love dogs. Do you have kids?

I like to read.

[Speaker 1] How is your family? What are you reading now?

[Speaker 2] Everyone fine, thanks. Although yesterday Mark went out for an action, there was a big fire. I was so stressed! Couldn't even read to relax...

[Speaker 1] wow, that does sound scary. how often does that happen?

[Speaker 2] Every 3 days he has a 24h shift. If anything happens then, he's out from the station with the fire team. Fortunately usually there are some small tasks like taking someon's cat down from a tree

[Speaker 1] still sounds pretty stressful. is that why you read so much? to kill the time in between?

[Speaker 2] I guess so. When he's at home we have a happy family life, but indeed when he's on a shift I usually read. Better to have mind busy than worrying all the time. How's your yoga class? Any progress in that stretching to impossible positions? :)

[Speaker 1] I actually haven't gone at all this week. My work has been really busy, the market has been crazy.

[Speaker 2] I don't know much about stocks. The only thing I'm sure off is that apart from work you need also something that will help you relax. Are you finding time to rest?

[Speaker 1] yeah, its definitely important. I'll find a way to get back to yoga so I can relax a bit when work calms down some. Should be back to my normal routine ina week or so.

[Speaker 2] Understand.. At least don't forget about Nanette! I'm sure she needs you every day. Playing with her should take some stress of you too :)

[Speaker 1] Nanette is the best. It always brightens my day when I come home and see her. How is your Nursing job going?

[Speaker 2] I'm on a leave for 3 days since Mark is home now. My emotions need me to spend some time with family after yesterday's firemen action.

I am from New York city.
I work at Wall Street in finance.
I like wearing suits and ties.
I have a poodle named Nanette.
I don't have kids.
I like to go on walks and do yoga.

I live in Pennsylvania.

I have kids.

I like to read.

I don't know about stocks.

[Speaker 1] Nanette has been happy for the extra play time we get since work has eased up.

[Speaker 2] That is great. I bet that is fun for her. I have been having some very long hours as one of our nurse staff just had a baby and another one broke their collar bone.

[Speaker 1] Oh no I'm so sorry to hear that. So are there days where you never see your husband?

[Speaker 2] On the days that he has a full 24 hour shift, I make it a thing to go down to the station and take the entire department a large home cooked dinner, and let the kids tell him good night. I have had 3 days in the last 4 months that I have had to work over time and missed doing that, but my mother is my babysitter so she takes care of it for me

[Speaker 1] Oh that's great to hear. You're an awesome mom. I can barely keep up with my dog let alone even think of having kids.

[Speaker 2] Oh, everyone can handle kids. Just gotta figure out your own thing. It is exhausting some times, but I love being a mom

[Speaker 1] That's nice to hear. I'm just glad that things are a little bit slower at work now. I've been swamped for weeks.

[Speaker 2] I bet. Like you said you cannot imagine having kids, well I cannot imagine having to watch numbers and make predictions all day. I don't get any of it. I am not good with numbers that are not just times, weights and medicine numbers.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I guess different strokes for different folks. I can get lost in spreadsheets and financial statements all day but tell me to babysit someone and I fall apart lol.

[Speaker 2] I don't understand spreadsheets at all. I have to have like a million post its on my office wall because I don't have the time or patience to deal with excel

[Speaker 1] Wow I can't even imagine your filing system ha ha. But it's easy once you get the hang of it.

[Speaker 2] Hey, I have a great filing system. In my eight filing cabinets. I do everything on paper still. I have a small library here too. Even my books are paper. I don't have one of those reading devices.

I am from New York city. I work at Wall Street in finance. I work with spreadsheets and financial statements.

I like wearing suits and ties.

I have a poodle named Nanette.

I don't have kids. I am not ready to have kids. I do not know how to babysit.

I like to go on walks and do yoga.

I live in Pennsylvania.

I am an nurse. I work long hours. My husband is a fireman. My husband works 24 hour shifts every 3 days. I cook dinner for my husband and his station.

I don't know about stocks.

I have kids. I sometimes work overtime. My mother babysits for me sometimes. I love being a mom.

I am not good at working with numbers. I do not understand spreadsheets or Excel.

I am organized. I like to read. I have a small library. I do not own an E-Reader.

[Speaker 1] I made a terrible mistake at work with some spreadsheets I was working on.

[Speaker 2] Oh no! Is it something you can fix? Are you going to get in trouble?

[Speaker 1] I can try to fix it but I don't think it will work 100%. I don't know if I'll get in trouble, but I'm not happy with myself right now.

[Speaker 2] I can understand that. It's easy to beat yourself up over mistakes even when they can be fixed. Don't be too hard on yourself, though, we're only human! I'm sure Nanette doesn't care if you made a spreadsheet mistake, right?

[Speaker 1] Haha yes true. Thank you, you made me feel better already. How is work with you?

[Speaker 2] Still very very busy. We got a new nurse hired in but we still have the other two out so we're all working overtime. I like the extra pay but I miss being at home to put the kids to bed.

[Speaker 1] I understand, I hope that can work out soon. How many kids do you have?

[Speaker 2] I have seven-year-old twins. A boy and a girl. I think growing up with siblings is important. I was an only child and often lonely

[Speaker 1] I definitely understand that, you can say I was an only child too. My little sister was born when I turned 18, so I grew up lonely as well.

[Speaker 2] That's a big age difference, yeah - might as well have been an only child! It's great that you didn't get stuck watching her too much, though - I know you said you don't know about babysitting.

[Speaker 1] Yes haha. She's getting so much bigger now, she's more like my child than my sister.

[Speaker 2] I bet she really looks up to you though. Does Nanette like her?

I am an avid jogger.

I love to bake.

My favorite activity is working with canines.

I am not a picky eater.

[Speaker 1] Hi I am tony do u like football I am a quarterback

[Speaker 2] Hi tony. Football causes brain damage. Are you ok?

[Speaker 1] Yeah my dream is to be drafted to the eagles

[Speaker 2] Ok good luck with that. I am a runner. Less brain damage, lol.

[Speaker 1] Last year I wasn't starter this year I'm

[Speaker 2] Wow, sounds like you are getting better. What is your diet like?

[Speaker 1] High protein low carb so I make playoffs

[Speaker 2] Sounds smart. I eat lots of bagels and cookies, burn carbs running.

[Speaker 1] I want to show my league proud n make state

[Speaker 2] I have a feeling you will succeed. Because you are focused.

[Speaker 1] Been playing since a toddler

[Speaker 2] You played football as a toddler? Linebacker ever knock you unconscious?

[Speaker 1] No little league is heavy padded

[Speaker 2] Oh, ok. Do you have a game with weekend?

[Speaker 1] No this week we are off

[Speaker 2] Ok. Runners almost never days off. Gonna head out for a run momentarily.

I like football. I am a quarterback.

My favorite team is the Eagles.

This is my second year in the league.

I am not playing football this week.

I don't like football.
I am a runner.
I like bagels and cookies.

[Speaker 1] What other sports do you like besides running.

[Speaker 2] almost every sport but football. what sports do you like?

[Speaker 1] I love football and baseball. I wanted to play both as a kid but my parents made me choose one so I chose football

[Speaker 2] That is sad but I happy you like what you do. I am really hungry I am to make some cookies . are you playin this week?

[Speaker 1] I'm not playing this week because I need to rest. What cookies are you making?

[Speaker 2] some chocolate one to eat them with bagels. do you have a favorite team?

[Speaker 1] Yes.. as I've said my favorite team is the Eagles. I wish I could eat cookies but I need to stay on a diet

[Speaker 2] thats a good team. yeah i know me too because I am runner but i think its all good haha

[Speaker 1] Yeah as long as you work out enough it should be ok to have some junk food

I am a quarterback.

My favorite team is the Eagles.

This is my second year in the league.

I don't like football.

I like bagels and cookies.

I like almost every sport, except for football.

I am on a diet too.  I am a runner.

[Speaker 1] I know you don't like football, but did you hear about the major trade that happened in Baseball?  I think the Yankees will really have a chance to win this year because of it.

[Speaker 2] That trade was crazy! I don't know what Philly was thinking giving away a player like that, but I still think the Yankees need more pitching to win it all.

[Speaker 1] How is your diet? I almost broke this week when my roommates girlfriend brought over brownies.

[Speaker 2] Not so good... My sister had a birthday and I caved and had cake. I justified it by going for an extra run, but I still felt gross afterwards. Have you been able to relax this week?

[Speaker 1] Yea, my ACL tear may take a little while longer to heal though. Are you trail running or just on the roads?

[Speaker 2] Gosh, I didn't realize it was an ACL tear. That's awful. I try to switch it up. Trail running is more fun but takes a lot more planning and time. What kind of rehab do they have you doing?

[Speaker 1] I had some PRP injections, and now there are some light stretches and using a band to do some PT. Have you ever torn anything running?

[Speaker 2] I've had sprains and tendonitis but thankfully haven't torn anything. *Knock on Wood* At some point I should switch to something lower impact or cross train a bit. Will you get to even suit up this year or is it all just rehab? How do you keep PT interesting? I would think it might get boring.

[Speaker 1] its SO boring. I have an assessment coming up next week to see if I can get back into the game.

[Speaker 2] I hope that goes well for you! I may not care for football much but anything has to be better than PT. Will your diet have to change once you are playing again?

[Speaker 1] Yup. Gotta cut out those brownies! I wish I could just sneak in an extra run like to you to make up from them.

[Speaker 2] Haha! I was wondering if they would but you on like a higher protein diet or something like that once you are going full speed again. I've been following the NBA and some of those guys have switched to plant-based diets and things like that as they have gotten older.

I am a quarterback.

My favorite team is the Eagles.

This is my second year in the league. I have been playing football since I was young. I love football and baseball. I am not playing football this week because I need to rest. I am on a diet.

I think the Yankees will win this year because of a trade.

I have a roommate.

My ACL is torn. I have to have PRP injections, stretches and band PT for my torn ACL PT is boring.  I have to have an assesment next week to see if I can play football.

I like bagels and cookies.

I don't like football. I think the Yankees need more pitching to win.

My diet isn't going so good. I had cake. I have a sister. I do trail running and run on the roads.  Trail running is more fun. I have sprained things and have had tendonitis.

I don't care for football.

I follow the NBA.

[Speaker 1] I just got back from my PT appointment and they said things are looking pretty well and I might be able to get back into light jogging before my assesment next week.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome! If you are able to jog, I would recommend on the trails and the roads because they are a great way to get back into shape.

[Speaker 1] I like the idea of running on trials less boring. Plus the road would be hard on my ACL.

[Speaker 2] That is true. Do you run with your teammates often or do you run by yourself?

[Speaker 1] one thing about football when you are injured they set you apart from the team and you have to run by yourself.

[Speaker 2] That is sad I am sorry. Would you want me to come run with you?

[Speaker 1] that sounds great. But don't you have tendinitis?

[Speaker 2] Yes I do, but I can not take not exercising at all. Plus, I really want to lose some weight.

[Speaker 1] well, you need to cut down on those bagels and cookies :)

[Speaker 2] That is true! I'm going to talk to my doctor today and we are going to work out a new diet.

[Speaker 1] you should speak to a nutritionist about your diet. All a doctor wants to do is give you a pill or carve you up.

[Speaker 2] Do you know any good nutritionists, or even some dietary suggestions?

[Speaker 2] everything about it. like the make fires and watch movies

[Speaker 1] Do you watch the movies outside? Or just keep the heat off inside?

[Speaker 2] inside. but keep my house really cold and drink some chocolate milk

[Speaker 1] Well, at least you save money on energy bills in the winter. How about the summer?

[Speaker 2] mmm I dont like it. what do you do for a living

[Speaker 1] My kids and I went to see a really fun movie - I think you would like it.

[Speaker 2] That sounds great, what is it about?

[Speaker 1] It's called Frozen! Have you heard of it? The song "Let It Go" has become really popular!

[Speaker 2] Hmm, I think I've heard the song on the radio. If it's called FROZEN, I'd probably like it since I love all things cold and winter.

[Speaker 1] That's exactly why I thought you would like it! I don't want to spoil anything else for you though. It's a great movie!

[Speaker 2] That's nice that you found a movie that you and your kids can enjoy together. I'm not really one for kids movies. I like Dramas and documentaries.

[Speaker 1] Have you watched any good ones lately?

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, there's this really cool one called "My Octopus Teacher" have you heard of it? It's really mind-blowing. Anway, I think I want to start scuba diving because of it.

[Speaker 1] I haven't heard of it. Is it kid-friendly? I didn't know you wanted to scuba dive. That sounds awesome! What a great way to explore the ocean. Have you signed up for lessons yet?

[Speaker 2] Depending on the maturity level of your kid, I think it would be fine. There are some deep thoughts and in the end the Octopus dies, so if your kids are fragile I wouldn't suggest it. No, I haven't signed up yet, but plan to in the next week or two. I have so much time on my hands! Enough about me, have you done any new Yoga classes lately?

[Speaker 1] Well thank you for the recommendation! Keep me posted on the scuba diving lessons! I have been to one new class. It was called "rocket yoga." I loved it! Have you ever heard of it? It is a style of vinyasa.

[Speaker 2] Rocket Yoga? No, I've never heard of it, sounds hard. Do you teach, or just take classes?

[Speaker 2] I'm waiting for the chance to do our kitchen.

I have two dogs.

I've seen the movie 'IT' before. Clowns terrify me.

I live in an apartment which is on the third floor.

I live in NY. I work as an interior designer.

I am designing a nursery for my job at the moment.

My girlfriend is pregnant.

I've seen the movie 'it'. Me and my girlfriend have recently bought a house together near my girlfriends parents. The house we've bought looks similar houses in the 'it' movie.

My girlfriend is going to decorate our babys room soon.

I want to decorate our kitchen in the near future.

I coach at a local highschool.

I took sports medicine at college.

[Speaker 1] Has your girlfriend thought any more about how she wants to decorate your baby's room?

[Speaker 2] We're not sure but we're getting there. We don't know the gender (we want it to be a surprise) so it will probably be creams and greys. Any interior design advice you can offer for a baby's room?

[Speaker 1] Well, keep in mind that if you make it too "baby", you'll have to redecorate again in a few years. I like to keep kid's rooms fun, though. Go for some contrasting, geometric patterns. What do you want to do to your kitchen?

[Speaker 2] That's true. I'd like the room to last until they are around 5 and start school, I'm not sure when we will get the time to redecorate before then! Geometric is also a good idea, we have geometric elements in our own bedroom so that could work. I'd like a very modern kitchen, lots of concrete and light, bright units. Is your home super trendy, working in the profession you do?

[Speaker 1] My own house is more minimalistic. Long, clean lines and no clutter. That said, there is only so much I can do with a tiny NY apartment, though! Has your team started practicing yet?

[Speaker 2] I like the sound of that, I'd love minimal but with children I find it so hard. Toys everywhere! That's true, I've stayed in NY before and apartment space is well and truly at a premium. Not yet, we start next week. I'm looking forward to getting back into it.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, you already have kids with another on the way! I didn't realize that. Yeah, I'd need a whole house, too! Wow, you start up so soon...what sport do you coach?

[Speaker 2] this will be our first child together. Working and living in NY must absolutely make up for the small apartment though. I teach football. I love it, it's really rewarding. Do you play any sports?

[Speaker 1] I really only watch football once a year. I don't play any sports, unless you count rock climbing at the gym.

[Speaker 2] I think I would say that counts! Rock climbing is super fun though, it's another one I really do enjoy.

[Speaker 1] Does your school have a climbing wall? I bet your students would love it.

[Speaker 2] It doesn't, but that's a good point - I should try speak to the principal about getting one put in for them. Maybe that could be another think I could teach!

I have two dogs.

I live in a small apartment which is on the third floor.

I like minimalism.

I go to a gym to do rock climbing.

My girlfriend is pregnant. This is our first child.

Me and my girlfriend have recently bought a house together near my girlfriends parents. The house we've bought looks similar houses in the 'IT' movie.

My girlfriend is going to decorate our babys room. I want to decorate our kitchen. I like modern designs.

I coach football at a local highschool.

I left college last week. I don't have any hobbies. I took sports medicine at college.

I used to live in New York.

I go rock climbing.

[Speaker 1] I went climbing last night.

[Speaker 2] Did you? How did you get on? Was it an indoor climbing gym or did you do it outside?

[Speaker 1] I went to my usual gym. It's always fun to see if I can get a little higher than last time. How was the gym at your college? Miss it?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, they had really good facilities. It's seems ages since I've been climbing though. With moving house and football, everything has been non stop!

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah I bet. Have you been able to keep coaching while taking care of your girlfriend? She's getting pretty close isn't she?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I've kept it going, can't let the high school kids down. It's been ok though as my girlfriend's parents have been keeping an eye on things when I'm not there. Yeah only a month to go!

[Speaker 1] That's good you have them there to help! That's exciting. How's the baby room coming?

[Speaker 2] It's looking good. We've not got to much in there as we want to add to it as we go, but my girlfriend has got it looking really nice.

[Speaker 1] Nice. Minimalism is always good! Hopefully you can focus on the kitchen once that's all taken care of.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I'd love to get that sorted. It looks really dated so I'd like to give it a modern touch. It might be a while before I get time to look at that though. I could do with your help on some ideas though.

[Speaker 1] No problem, I'll give you a call next week after I give it some thought. We'll have plenty of time to perfect the plan!

[Speaker 2] How's the work at the nursery going?

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you doing today?

[Speaker 2] Pretty good day, how is yours so far?

[Speaker 1] Not so good. Today is the anniversary of my dads death.

[Speaker 2] I am so sorry to hear it. I could not imagine such a loss. How many years?

[Speaker 1] Five years ago when I was in high school. It still hurts.

[Speaker 2] That's very young, but is a hurt that doesn't go away no matter how old

[Speaker 1] I guess you are right. Anyways, please tell me about yourself?

[Speaker 2] I'm a student, just finished my classes, and thinking about dinner

[Speaker 1] Oh really? What are thinking about eating?

[Speaker 2] Some kind of comfort food it is a cold day, maybe pasta

[Speaker 2] I find that I can focus early in the morning. I like the silence. Do you do ballet practice often?

[Speaker 1] 3 times a week.  What is it like in California, I am thinking of moving to the coase.

[Speaker 2] It's very good. Home is where the heart is I guess. Have you performed on a stage?

[Speaker 1] So how is the California life been?

[Speaker 2] It's ok I guess but since I have lived here all my life I don't find it so special. Why are you thinking of moving?

[Speaker 1] Beach and sun.  It is so drab where I am.

[Speaker 1] I usually play games in the evening.  I like to play some Mario games to wind down.  Do you have a favorite Mario game?

[Speaker 2] Nice! I think my favorite has to be Odyssey. I love the classics, but Odyssey is just so fun. How about you?

[Speaker 1] My favorite is probably Yoshi's Island.  Of the 3d games, I probably like Super Mario 3D World the best.

[Speaker 2] Oooh that's a good one. 3D world just got a remake, right? I've been meaning to start it.

[Speaker 1] Yes, it did.  I played through the original on Wii U.  I am looking forward to seeing what they added.

[Speaker 2] I'm so excited to play it! I've heard really good things about the new content–I never had a Wii U so I never played the original.

[Speaker 1] You were missing out.  Many people did, though.  I really did like the Wii U.  You are in for a treat with 3D World.

[Speaker 2] Amazing! I've heard nothing but great things–I'll have to ask you for tips once I start!

[Speaker 1] Cool.  I will have a few.  I am no professional speedrunner, but I can hold my own.

I also like Mario video games. I play video games in the morning before I go to work. My favorite game is Odyssey. I like classic video games. I do not have a Wii U.

[Speaker 1] I took your advice and tried to play Odyssey the video game. It was a great time. I can see why it is your favorite.

[Speaker 2] I'm so happy you tried it! It's about time you stepped outside of the Mario universe. Did you ever make it past that level?

[Speaker 1] I know I have a little bit of a Mario problem! No I am still working on that level. You know the one.

[Speaker 2] I do know the one. I still haven't beaten it. I just get frustrated and change games. I'll bet hanging out playing video games is a good way to rest your toe. How's it feeling now? Do you think you'll be able to get back to ballet class soon?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure when I'll be back prancing and dancing.... My boyfriend, Ron, told me I had a "fred flintstone toe" and it hurt my feeling so bad. I think I have to dump him.

[Speaker 2] Oh, I'm sorry that hurt your feelings. My ex Ryan called me a dumb blonde, and my best friend Amy said it shouldn't hurt my feelings since he was kidding, but jokes can hurt too.

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah your ex Ryan was so hot but so mean. I think I am going to make Ron my ex. I think the only reason I was attracted to him was because of his big goomba head reminded me of Mario.

[Speaker 2] The only reason I started getting up at 4am was because my snoring bothered Ryan so much he said he couldn't sleep. It wasn't even that bad -- more like heavy breathing. He just wanted something negative to say -- like Ron with your big toe. Unnecessary. At least I'm sure there are plenty of fish in the sea in a place like New York. Do you live in the city?

[Speaker 1] I live close to the city but not in the city. I am totally going to dump Ron and take me and my Fred Flintstone toe out on the town!

[Speaker 2] You yabba dabba better.

[Speaker 1] Haha thank you for the joke! You always make me smile!

[Speaker 2] I've got to keep up a good sense of humor here in wine country. Most everyone else is so bland.

I like to be comfortable.
I like to do roller sports.
I like my female office mate.

When I was little I enjoyed clothes.
