I love tacos and fries.

I enjoy fishing. I play the bass.
I exercise every day.
I like cheeseburgers.

[Speaker 1] I proposed to my girlfriend over the loudspeaker at the game I coached this weekend. She said yes!

[Speaker 2] Wow!  How exciting!  So are you planning on the wedding before or after the baby is born?

[Speaker 1] After the baby is born because it will be too stressful for her to plan for the wedding while pregnant. So how did your fishing go last weekend?

[Speaker 2] It went well I caught a whopper of a bass.  I was just thinking with your news, that I really would like to find someone myself.  But she would have to like fishing.  That would be a must.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's great, I tried fishing one time and didn't catch anything, never try fishing again since then. I hope the best of luck for you to find your soulmate. I remember you exercise at the gym a lot, any girl you're eyeing for over there?

[Speaker 2] There is one very cute young lady, but I have been too nervous to approach her and ask her out.  She does a cycling class, and I am thinking of joining it, maybe get to know her that way.

[Speaker 1] Ah nice. I hope it goes well. do update me how it goes! You know suddenly I'm craving for cheeseburgers. I know you love cheeseburgers so much, do you know any good restaurant that sells cheeseburgers?

[Speaker 2] Zupoo's makes the best burger I have ever eaten.  If you like the spicy life, get their jalepeno and habernaro cheese.  It is amazing.

[Speaker 1] Wow you make it sound very delicious, I should look it up online. By the way, how's your band practice going? I remember you play bass?

[Speaker 2] Yes, been with this band for four years now.  We have a few gigs lined up at local bars this month.  We'll be playing weekends when you are at your games.  By the way did your team win?  That would be a sweet memory of your proposal if you did!

[Speaker 1] Yes my team won and the moment was just perfect! The kids were celebrating when I proposed to her and we all ended up celebrating my engagement.

[Speaker 2] That is great!  Well I gotta run now, I need to head to the gym.  I am hoping a certain lady will be there.

I love Zupoo's cheeseburgers.

[Speaker 1] How did your workout go? Did you enroll in the cycling class and meet that certain person?

[Speaker 2] I did! I really enjoyed the class, but I didn't work up the courage to talk to her yet. I felt super nervous about it when I got there.

[Speaker 1] why did you feel nervous, was she not approachable?

[Speaker 2] No, she seems super nice actually. I just get nervous sometimes that if I talk to a girl she won't like me or will think I am weird.

[Speaker 1] well we all have experiences like that but there comes a time where you will have to try, how will you know if she likes you if you don't speak to her?

[Speaker 2] That is true! How did you first ask out your girlfriend? It sounds like it worked out for you.

[Speaker 1] I met her through my coaching work, I was nervous like you too but I wanted to know her and I thought it was worth the try and I am glad I tried, now we are engaged and she is pregnant and we are going to be a family.

[Speaker 2] That is so cool! What are you most excited for about being a dad?

[Speaker 1] the unconditional love I guess. what about you, would you like to be a father someday?

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, I would really like to be a father. I would just love to teach my child the things that I know, and kids are so interesting and cute.

[Speaker 2] Either pad thai or chocolate chip cookies. Not mixed up, though!

[Speaker 2] You too, have a good day.

I am a yoga instructor.

I like salads.

I read political thrillers.

I watch sitcoms with my free time.

[Speaker 1] What kind of sitcoms are you watching nowadays?

[Speaker 2] Oh, I am just watching lots of reruns from older sitcoms from years back! Fun times. Do you like watching TV?

[Speaker 1] Yes but would prefer to walk on nature trails than to sit watch TV.

[Speaker 2] Oh nice! I wish I got out more to do walks like that! I'm stuck inside a lot writing for my job. How is your yoga going?

[Speaker 1] It is going well. Thanks for asking. Where do you get pad thai when you want to eat it?

[Speaker 2] Great! I get it from a local place, it's fantastic! Reasonably priced too. What are you other favorite foods, apart from salads?

[Speaker 1] I like chinese food. However, I would always choose salads over any other food. Like how much do you get pad thai?

[Speaker 2] Nice! I get pad thai a lot to be honest! Also cookies, I love them.

[Speaker 1] That is surprising! Why would you say you get it for a reasonable price before? I really want to try it once at least.

[Speaker 2] The local thai place I order from is pretty cheap so it lets me get it often! You could always buy the ingredients and try it!

[Speaker 1] Really! Preparing it myself will be suicidal! I can't do that, I suck in cooking. Thanks for the information.

[Speaker 2] I bet you could do it! I suck too, thats why I order haha!

[Speaker 1] ['What kind of sitcoms are you watching nowadays?', 'Hiking in the winter is challenging at the moment.']

My favorite foods are pad thai and chocolate chip cookies. I enjoy Pad Thai at a local restaurant.

I am not a good cook.

[Speaker 1] Are you planning on visiting your local Thai place again anytime soon? I know that has to be tempting, to be close, inexpensive, and tasty.

[Speaker 2] I visit it quite often with my buddies next door. Yes it's always tempting! What have you been up to?

[Speaker 1] I actually watched an Office Episode! I ran across the Asian Jim one. It was funny. I'm thinking of just hitting some of the highlights but I might actually get into it.

[Speaker 1] I've been watching WandaVision a lot, but I haven't seen this weeks. No spoilers if you have!

[Speaker 2] I haven't lol. I think I can get into any genre except horror. I don't like slashers or stuff with ghosts and demons. Any movies you've seen lately?

[Speaker 1] Nope. I still just like to be outdoors. I did have someone suggest a new book which is a political thriller. Have you read While Justice Sleeps?

[Speaker 2] I haven't heard of that one. I will check that out for sure. I definitely have the time since I work from home. What do you like to do outdoors?

[Speaker 1] Nature trails. There are a lot of good one by my house. It is especially good to just get out and hear/see/touch/be outside. You should try it! Or some yoga. Something to get your body moving.

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea and you know what I actually just started beginner yoga. Hopefully it gets easier with time cause it twists me up.

[Speaker 1] Keep listening to your body and breathe. There are so many positions that seem like nothing but take strength and flexibility. Are you going to a class or trying on your own? You should try with an instructor. ;) We're trained to help you modify and adjust.

[Speaker 2] Well so far I've been using YouTube instructionals. I'll think about if I need an instructor but I'm a little embarrassed at how inflexible I am at the moment. Do you have many clients?

I recently started yoga. I have watched instructional yoga videos on YouTube. I am inflexible.

[Speaker 1] Have you thought any more about getting a yoga instructor?

[Speaker 2] I have thought about it definitely. I feel like it would be a great way for me to improve my fitness.

[Speaker 1] yeah I would say it helps a lot just keep at it

[Speaker 2] Were you a fan of the Office or did you not like it? It's one of my all time favorite shows.

[Speaker 1] I do a little but i most likely to read.  I've already planned out my next few months reading list.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome.  Who is your favorite author?  I like to read as well. Currently, I am reading a Stephen King novel.

[Speaker 1] My favorite right now is Jane Austen. I like reading about the past from authors in the past. I think in some ways it gives a historical account of how things used to be.

[Speaker 2] That is true.  I am a history buff, so books like that would interest me as well. You mentioned a reading list.  What is next on your list after Jane Austen?

[Speaker 1] Well she mentions two different books in her writings so I am going to read those. One should be right up your ally. It's supposed to be really scary!

[Speaker 2] Oh really? If you don't mind, what is the name of that book?  I may add it to my list.

[Speaker 1] It's called The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe.

[Speaker 2] I am not familiar with it.  Can you give me a brief summary?

[Speaker 1] Sure, it's supposed to be set in 1584 and be about a woman imprisoned in a castle. There some odd and scary things take place and also some romance.

[Speaker 2] That sounds interesting. I may check it out when I finish the two books I am currently reading.

I work as a librarian.

I like to read. I like history. I have a book list.

I am currently reading two books.

[Speaker 1] What are the two books you are reading?

[Speaker 2] I'm currently reading It and Pet Cemetery by Stephen King. I haven't dared to turn the lights all the way off in the house for days! It's great.

[Speaker 1] I haven't read much King, just the stand. He is primarily a horror writer right? Do you have more King books on your book list?

[Speaker 2] I'm not sure about the rest of his books, but everything that I've read has been pretty spooky so far! I don't have other King books on my list. Just a few old history books. Have you started reading your books yet?

[Speaker 1] I have started one. Pride and Prejudice. I haven't read it in a long time I am looking forward to it. Do you listen to Earth Wind and Fire while you read?

[Speaker 2] Yeah! How did you know? I'm a great multitasker. Sometime I even read, listen to music, and eat my lunch all at the same time. What do you like to do while you read?

[Speaker 1] Wow that is intense!! How do you manage that all. I love to just read in dim light in the quiet. I am not great at handling too much stimulus at once. I do love to bathe and read, too. Do you listen to metal when you read, too?

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah! I listen to metal all the time. I even like to listen in the bath sometimes. I find it makes me energized. You should try it next time you're taking a bath!

[Speaker 1] I will try it. I have heard that metal can be very energizing. I bet it would be fun to listen to while you drive! Do you ever listen to audiobooks or just prefer to read?

[Speaker 2] I've never tried listening to an audiobook... Do you recommend it?

[Speaker 1] I don't really. I much prefer reading a book to listening. But everyone different! Maybe you'd like it

[Speaker 2] Well, I'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes! I might as well try it out. Can I rent audiobooks from the library?

I work as a librarian.

I like leather, eating, reading.

My favorite author is Jane Austen. I am re-reading Pride and Prejudice.

The only Stephen King book I have read is The Stand.

I enjoy reading in dim light in the quiet. I enjoy bathing while reading. I prefer reading to listening to books.

I have spiky black hair.

I like sleeping late in the day.

I like history. I have a book list. I am reading It and Pet Cemetery. I do not have any other Stephen King books on my reading list. I will read a few history books.

I listen to Earth Wind and Fire while I read. I multitask.

I listen to metal all the time. I am energized by metal music.

I have never listened to an audiobook.

[Speaker 1] They should have a selection of audio books, I just picked up some regular books but forgot to check!

[Speaker 2] What kind of books did you check out? I just got four of them yesterday.

[Speaker 1] I got a couple of poetry books and I checked out Sense and Sensibility again.

[Speaker 2] I love Sense and Sensibility. My favorite Jane Austen novel is still Emma, though. I checked out my library's audiobook selection and they have digital audiobooks!

[Speaker 1] Wow that's really cool! I haven't checked out digital audiobooks yet. Have you finished reading Pet Semetery?

[Speaker 2] I did! I think they made a movie recently, or maybe a miniseries? I want to see the new The Stand miniseries with Alexander Skarsgard.

[Speaker 1] They did! They remade the movie, I haven't watched it yet. The Stand sounds good, I love him!

[Speaker 2] I hadn't looked up what he had been in lately. I think he's in the new Godzilla vs King Kong movie but I haven't gotten around to it. He's one of my favorite actors.

[Speaker 1] I loved watching him in True Blood, that's where I first saw him.

[Speaker 2] I wanted Sookie to stay with Eric! I hated the Bill pairing that the writers chose to do. I felt like the series was just very much better than the books.

[Speaker 1] I loved Sookie and Eric, I always thought Bill was too manipulative. I didn't read the books, should I?

[Speaker 2] If you like things in that genre the books are better. I agree with you about Bill. It seems like I never like the parings the authors or writers choose. There's almost always someone better suited.

[Speaker 2] I am doing well.  I will not try for a max weight until closer to the games.  It is a year round effort.

[Speaker 1] I wish I could drive my truck to Russia to see you compete!

[Speaker 2] It is a pretty country with many things to see.  There are trucks here for you to drive. haha.  Have you ever been stuck in the snow?

[Speaker 1] Not yet! I drive mostly near with west coast. Luckily, it rarely snows. How's the weather?

[Speaker 2] It is good right now.  It will be good for a few more months.  Then back to snow.  One time I got a work out pushing cars out of the snow.

[Speaker 1] That doesn't sound fun, but at least you've got the muscles for it!

[Speaker 2] I travel a lot for the Olympics, but I bet you put more miles in a year.

[Speaker 1] Probably. I'm thinking of taking a vacation later this year, maybe Moscow. Do you live near there?

[Speaker 2] Moscow is a great place to visit.  I am a few hours north by car. Plan your trip for summer. hahaha.

[Speaker 1] Definitely! Nice talking to you!

[Speaker 2] Have a good trip and keep the truck on the road.

I am a truck driver.

I like to travel.

I drive my truck mostly on the west coast.

I would like to take a vacation to Moscow.

I am an Olympian and live in Russia.

I will compete in Russia.

I travel for the Olympics.

[Speaker 1] You won't believe the crazy day I had with my truck.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, that's crazy! What happened with your truck?

[Speaker 1] Well, I was driving along the road early in the morning and I saw a car pulled over with a flat tire. I stopped the truck to help the person out and I find a woman in labor in the backseat!

[Speaker 2] Oh my goodness, what happened next? Did you help her deliver the baby, or did you get help?

[Speaker 1] There was no service in the area so the father had gone in search of help. He wasn't back when I found her so I had to help deliver the baby!

[Speaker 2] Is everybody okay? Where were you driving when this happened?

[Speaker 1] It was on a deserted road in California. Luckily everyone's okay! The father pulled up with the police and an ambulance right after I delivered the baby. They even asked me to be The Godfather!

[Speaker 2] So cool! I'm glad everybody is okay. Did you record it on your dash camera?

[Speaker 1] Good idea! I didn't even think to check. I almost never use that thing... Do you have one on your car as well?

[Speaker 2] Everyone in Russia has one. Insurance is crazy here. Everyone has to record their driving so they can prove what they did when they were driving. Did you know that?

[Speaker 1] Woah, I did not know that! Have you ever been in an accident?

[Speaker 2] A couple of times. Thankfully I've never been at fault. Have you?

[Speaker 1] Hello how are you this evening?

[Speaker 2] I am okay! Excited to finally relax after a long week at the factory

[Speaker 1] Good you are resting. I run a boat and its a lot of work each day.

[Speaker 2] Wow you must have to get up super early each day to get out there on time

[Speaker 1] Yea you have to get there early to get a good catch.

[Speaker 2] Sounds good to me. I'm up early since I like to be early to work

[Speaker 1] Do you read? Pride and prejudice by jane austen is my favorite

[Speaker 2] Not really. I'm more into writing

[Speaker 1] Interesting what do you write?

[Speaker 2] My own jokes hehe! During my weekend volunteering I tell jokes to the elderly

[Speaker 1] I love running but don't find sneakers comfy, just tennis shoes.

[Speaker 2] Ahh yes I agree. You need more support than that

[Speaker 1] Thank you that means a lot.

[Speaker 2] I better head off to bed now. Gotta wake up early tomorrow!

I work on a boat.

The boat I work on is a fishing boat. I report to work early in the morning.

Pride and Prejudice is my favorite novel.

I love running. I don't like sneakers. I only wear tennis shoes.

I work at a factory.
I report to work early in the morning.
I like writing.
I write jokes.

[Speaker 1] Have you thought of any new jokes?

[Speaker 2] Only 100 of them every day! The trouble is finding the good ones in my head!

[Speaker 1] I was never any good at even remembering jokes, now the only ones I can remember are "dad jokes".  I hit my kids with this one the other day, "Why couldn't the bicycle stand up by itself?  It was two tired".  It fell pretty flat.  What do you think, could I be an opening act for you?

[Speaker 2] Dad jokes are in now, They open the door to so many comedic chances. "My ceiling isn't the best, but it's up there!"

[Speaker 1] Haha.  Wow, I didn't know they were in.  I guess I can still be hip.  My daughter told me that carpenter pants were in also.  I have a pair from 10 years ago that are suddenly "in" again.  I also undestand that Carhardt apparel is very popular.  You probably have some work gear that you didn't know was fashionable now.

[Speaker 2] With nostalgia being the "in thing" now, there is no surprise. We're never really past our prime! I heard mullets are popular again too! What a world!

[Speaker 1] YESSS...my same daughter snapped a picture of a kid in school with a Joe Dirt style mullet the other day.  I couldn't believe it.  Hopefully fishing gear becomes trendy, I would be totally set with wardrobe.

[Speaker 2] I don't change mine much due to work. But I might consider rocking the Jagr mullet for a charitable cause. I'd have the mullet over though!

[Speaker 1] The Jagr mullet is a strong one.  He was a great player.  Did you know that he is still playing hockey?  I am pretty sure he is playing somewhere in Europe.  I wonder if he is still rocking the mullet.  And agreed, for the right charitable cause, would be a no brainer.

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, huge Devils fan so I track the old guys! I think he grew it back recently. I used to make lots of jokes about hockey speaking of, though some are in bad taste!

[Speaker 1] We all made those same jokes.  I can't believe you are a Devils fan.  So am I.  Daneyko was my favorite.  Him, Stevens and Brodeur were from my vintage.

[Speaker 2] When the jokes hit home, they hit home! I was listening to Daneyko when they played today! He has trouble pronouncing names and it always makes me laugh. Sharangovich must have been tough since he had to say it so much. Elias was my favorite, and funny enough I purchased Marty's son's equipment from a yard sale at his ex-wife's house a few years ago. Crazy world!

I work on a fishing boat. I like fishing.

I report to work early in the morning.

I have kids.

I have a daughter.

I am a Devils fan. Daneyko was my favorite player.

I work at a factory.

I report to work early in the morning.

I like writing. I write jokes. I am a comedian.

I am a Devils fan.

Elias was my favorite player.

[Speaker 1] How was your last show?

[Speaker 2] It was fantastic!  The place was a special wedding venue and it was so expensive looking.  I loved the wedding couple, they were so much fun and easy to make jokes with.

[Speaker 1] That is great! Have you written any new jokes lately?

[Speaker 2] No, I kind of come up with them on the spot, depending on the audience.  The grooms father was a real charactor.  Are your kids home from school yet?

[Speaker 1] Wow, thinking on the fly. That's impressive. They are not back yet. They are at hockey practice. Catch any news about the Devils lately?

[Speaker 2] No I haven't had time.  I was wonderf

[Speaker 1] They are making some good progress! I am excited to see what happens next season. Hows life at the factory?

[Speaker 2] Sorry I hit the wrong button.  I don't like my factory jo at all.  I am trying to get more side gigs.  I was wondering if you'd be interested to do some work with me.  I need a person to help me sometimes with my act.

[Speaker 1] We all make typos it's okay! I would love to do that! I am great with lighting and music but not so great at joke telling. What do you need help with?

[Speaker 2] I need someone to stand by me and answer simple questions I would ask.  And, adding some music would be great too!  Want to meet for lunch and discuss it?

[Speaker 1] Yes, let's! It sounds like a great opportunity. Maybe we could go out on the lake and fish and eat the fish we caught for lunch!

[Speaker 2] That would be fun!  Can we do it this weekend?

[Speaker 1] I try to diet, but I always get distracted by good food

[Speaker 2] I'm always dieting. I'm trying to become a model. I want to be famous.

[Speaker 1] I just like being athletic myself

[Speaker 2] Want to know something interesting. I had lunch in hollywood with will ferrell.

[Speaker 1] That is very cool whats he like

[Speaker 2] He's very private. He only agreed to meet me privately at this jazz lounge.

[Speaker 1] That's pretty cool I hope I can come next time

[Speaker 2] Do you like jazz? I do. Especially classical jazz.

[Speaker 1] Yes it is great I love it

[Speaker 2] Have you ever almost died? I nearly did from urinary cancer when I was 18.

[Speaker 1] No that's terrible I'm sorry to hear that

[Speaker 2] It was scary. But I'm glad I survived it. I try to live healthy now.

[Speaker 1] I don't blame you hope all goes well for you

[Speaker 2] Thank you. That means a lot. I'm glad you never had to deal with that.

I like being athletic.
I love classical jazz.
I've never had cancer.

I am on a low carb diet. I live healthy. I'm trying to be a model. I want to be famous.

I am a huge fan of classical jazz.

I had urinary cancer when I was 18.

[Speaker 1] I found some cool new classical jazz music

[Speaker 2] Oh that's awesome. Who are the songs by?

[Speaker 1] I just picked up an old jazz various artists CD from the thrift shop.  It is relaxing to sit back in the chair and just listen.

[Speaker 2] Yeah that sounds amazing. Which artist is your favorite in the CD? I'll look them up and take a listen too!

[Speaker 1] Of course, it would be Miles Davis.  I would like to go back out to the jazz club.  Do you ever go out on the town or is the low carb diet keeping you on the straight and narrow?

[Speaker 2] Ooh, I remember Miles Davis I love his trumpet skills. They're outta this world. I've been staying in mostly, I've been staying strict on my diet.

[Speaker 1] I have been thinking about going low carb.  How are your energy levels?

[Speaker 2] At first I felt very sluggish the first month. But now I feel like I have so much more energy than before. My workouts have been significantly longer and more impactful. Haha I sound like a crazy diet person now.

[Speaker 1] Maybe one day I will be a crazy diet person, too.  I mainly want to try it because I have been feeling worn down.  It sounds like you are having a good experience.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm having a really good time with the diet so far. You should definitely try it out if you've been feeling down. Have you been working out lately? Maybe you can try a different type of workout if you're feeling down.

[Speaker 1] I have mainly doing cardio.  I think hitting the weights might help.  What do you think?

[Speaker 2] Yeah hitting the weights always feels good. I feel strong and uplifted after lifting. Lifting weights usually burns more calories than cardio too.

I love classical jazz.

I've never had cancer.

I shop at the thrift shop.

My favorite artist from the old CD is Miles Davis. I used to go to the jazz club.

I want to try a diet. I have been working out lately. I like being athletic.

I am on a low carb diet. I still have energy while on a diet. I have been having a good time with my diet. I live healthy. I'm trying to be a model. I want to be famous.

I am a huge fan of classical jazz.

I had urinary cancer when I was 18.

I listen to music online.

I like Miles Davis. I was alive before Miles Davis died.

I lift weights.

[Speaker 1] I went to the gym and decided to lift instead of my usual cardio. It felt good, but I definitely am sore!

[Speaker 2] I am glad that you feel good. I think being sore is a good thing, right?

[Speaker 1] It certainly means that something's happening! I like the feeling that there are results, now I've just got to do what it takes to rest and recover my energy!

[Speaker 2] Yes, results are good. What do you do to rest and recover? I have lifted some weights just yesterday.

[Speaker 1] I don't have much of a routine yet, since I'm just starting out. Stay hydrated and try to distract the cat with the laser pointer so she doesn't jump on my lap, mostly! I can tell I'm going to be stiff in the morning.

[Speaker 2] I think some stretches, yoga and/or walking would be good in helping stay active but also recovering.

[Speaker 1] I might look for a morning yoga class if this is going to become a regular thing for me. Do you do yoga?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I do yoga on a regular basis. It is very beneficial for me. I am intermediate.

[Speaker 1] Do you just do it yourself at home, or do you attend a class? It might be more convenient for me to just look up videos online so I can do it whenever I'm not busy, unless you think I need an instructor for it to really work?

[Speaker 2] I do it myself at home. I look up videos on Youtube, I have a couple apps that I use. I don't think you need an instructor for it to really work.

[Speaker 1] I think I'll try it out, then! Tomorrow morning I should have some time to do it before I have to run errands for the day. I'm nearly out of food in the house!

[Speaker 2] That's not good. You should get some food that will help you out between workouts and recovery.


I think I need a vacation.

I take forever to get tasks done so I start early and clock out late.

I work too much.

I am a perfectionist.

If things are not done right I'll redo them again and again.

I'm a hair stylist.
I live on a boat.
I have my own salon.
My hair is colored purple.

I have been a wife for a short amount of time.

[Speaker 1] Hello and what have you been up to?

[Speaker 2] Hi, I'm well. How are you?

[Speaker 1] Not well at all.... I need a vacation. Maybe italy or france

[Speaker 2] That sounds wonderful. What do you do for a living?

[Speaker 1] Project manager by trade but perfection by flawed default... Conflict much?

[Speaker 2] I style and cut hair. Do you live in a home or an apartment?

[Speaker 1] My home is a small house. Just 3 bed and baths

[Speaker 2] I make my home on a boat. I own the salon I work at.

[Speaker 1] A boat how nice.... Owning a salon... Lots of work?

[Speaker 2] Yes. Are you married? I was just married last year.

[Speaker 1] Yes I am married to my job..... I work way too much to be married.

[Speaker 2] That's sad. What color is your hair mine is purple?

[Speaker 1] Not sad... Just my choice... My hair color depends on the day of the week

[Speaker 2] That is interesting. Everyone deserves love. Purple is my favorite.

[Speaker 1] I get love... Just do not live with it...

[Speaker 2] Some people I suppose like living alone.

I am employed as a project manager.
I live in a house.
I am single.

I am a hairdresser.
I live on a boat.  I own a salon.
I am recently married.
I have purple hair.

[Speaker 1] I was thinking of dying my hair a new color. What are the trendy colors right now?

[Speaker 2] Most of the clients I cut hair for say blond is the way to go this time of year!

[Speaker 1] That sounds ideal. How is your business going, by the way?

[Speaker 2] Nice and steady.  Is your job going well?

[Speaker 1] Business is a little slow at the moment but we're managing ok.

[Speaker 2] Well I'm sure it will improve as time goes on.  If you ever want to relax and save a little money feel free to take my boat out for the day.

[Speaker 1] Thanks, that's very kind. Have you sailed anywhere nice recently?

[Speaker 2] No I have just been lounging around the house and working.  I really should. Maybe we could dye that hair and then take the boat out.

[Speaker 1] Perfect! And of course if you and your spouse want to come over for dinner you are very welcome!

[Speaker 2] Awesome, we will.  Have you met any potential matches yet?

[Speaker 1] Not yet. Meeting people is so hard, especially with online dating and everything. Do you know anyone who's available?

[Speaker 2] No one at all unfortunately. Ill keep an eye out at work for some cute clients.

I live in a house.

I am single.

I've dyed my hair before. I may dye my hair blond.

[Speaker 1] I'm free next weekend. Would you like to take the boat out together?

[Speaker 2] Sure! I have a hairdressing appointment on Saturday but we can take the boat out on Sunday.

[Speaker 1] Great! It's been a while since I've been sailing. I'm planning on bringing snacks and drinks. Is there anything in particular you would like me to bring?

[Speaker 2] Anything you like is fine by me. While we're out sailing, maybe you can tell me what qualities you are looking for in a soulmate.

[Speaker 1] That sounds good to me! I suppose I could also just tell you now, if you want.

[Speaker 2] Sure that sounds good. I'm also curious if you will dye your hair blond by this weekend.

[Speaker 1] I actually went out on a limb and dyed it yesterday! I added a subtle hint of pink to it too, like a slightly pinker strawberry blond

[Speaker 2] That sounds exciting! I guess it will add some adventure to your daily work as a project manager.

[Speaker 1] Haha! I'm not sure I need anymore adventure! There's a huge update we're currently working on and the operations team wants this done faster than the devs can realistically finish it. And so do the customers! Plus, I've gotten a lot of orders for my business, so what I really need is a breather, haha.

[Speaker 2] We'll make sure you get to relax this Sunday on the boat. Perhaps we can soon find the right person for your heart and house.

[Speaker 1] I'm really looking forward to Sunday. And that would be nice. I'm hoping to find someone who is sweet, charming, hardworking, and can cook.

[Speaker 2] I assume this means that you have all of these qualities yourself? Haha. I'm sure we can find the right person since I meet many new people at my salon.

[Speaker 1] That is really good. How do you plan to spend your time off?

[Speaker 2] Hopefully I can catch up on sleep and then spend some time with my family. What are your plans for tomorrow? Will you play Call of Duty?

[Speaker 1] Making sure that you get enough sleep is important if you are busy all the time. I will probably play Call of Duy for a while and then go shopping.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a great day. I may do some shopping myself. What do you plan to buy?

[Speaker 1] Probably going to buy some toys for one of my kids birthdays that is coming up.

[Speaker 2] How old will he or she be turning? If you want to go out for dinner for your kid's birthday, you should try coming to the restaurant I manage. I can give you a discount!

[Speaker 1] He will be turning 13. What restaurant do you manage?

[Speaker 2] A local Italian restaurant that gets great reviews. I think your son would love it. I'm very close with my family and we celebrate everyone's birthday there.

[Speaker 1] That is great. We love Italian food and are very close as a family as well.

[Speaker 2] That's great to hear! The only bad thing about the restaurant is my boss. He works us all too hard. But he doesn't often come into the restaurants in the evenings.

My name is Maria.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I will! I work week days and take weekends off to spend time with my family. Did you have anything in mind you wanted to eat?

[Speaker 1] My son is going to want a calzone, that I know, but I'll probably wait to see what specials you have that night.

[Speaker 2] Friday nights have my favorite specials with our in house made pizzas but we have a large menu so you'll for sure find something you like. We're looking to hire if you need somewhere to work.

[Speaker 1] After what I've heard about your boss!?! No thanks. He sounds like a nightmare to work for.

[Speaker 2] Right haha I'm always offering because I need some co-workers I can talk with. Do you're children also like Italian food?

[Speaker 1] My son loves calzones. I tried to tell him they're just pizza folded in half but he says that I'm uneducated when it comes to the subtle majesty of calzones.

[Speaker 2] Right I had to teach my kids how to eat properly too. One day I'd like to open my own restaurant and serve any food my kids love.

[Speaker 1] That's why I'm going to have you fill his calzone with spinach! I'll get him to eat vegetables one way or another.

[Speaker 2] Yeah it's important to have them eat healthy foods I always struggle with it. I was thinking to include organic foods because they can taste good and my kids will like them.

[Speaker 1] Honestly, I don't buy a lot of organic foods. I just can't justify paying the higher prices.

[Speaker 2] It does have a lot of benefits though so I can see why they are priced higher than normal foods.

[Speaker 2] Im undecided at the moment. I was thinking about talking to my counselor about which major to pick.

[Speaker 1] Have you considered majoring in music?

[Speaker 2] Not opposed to the idea, I do like playing the guitar. I think I might even enjoy learning other instruments or teaching others to play as well.

[Speaker 1] I love jazz, classical, and world fusion music, but I spend too much time playing golf instead of playing an instrument.

[Speaker 2] Do you play with others, or is it more of a personal relaxation time for you?

[Speaker 1] I have a few partners I play with. Sometimes a foursome. You ever play?

[Speaker 2] Not really, don't think I'd be good at it. I prefer playing other sports, such as football although not in a serious or competitive way.

[Speaker 1] I used to play intramural in college. It was fun. I love watching it. Looking forward to today's playoff games.

[Speaker 2] You watch other sports as well? Like golf or basketball?

I'm retired. I'm healthy.

I have 8 grandkids.

I'm active.

I love jazz, classical and world fusion music. I love to play golf. I sometimes play golf with up to three other people.  I  watch the playoff games.

I went to college. I played intramural and enjoy watching it.

I have no kids.

I go to college. I love learning. I enjoy learning about a variety of topics.

I haven't decided on a major yet.

I like to play guitar. I might like to learn other instruments or teach others to play instruments.

I don't really play golf. I like football and other sports for recreation only.

[Speaker 1] Have you spoken to your counsellor yet about your major? Any more thoughts on majoring in music?

[Speaker 2] No, not yet, I'm still mulling over what I'd like to do. Maybe I'll be a music teacher. It's so hard to choose!

[Speaker 1] Being a music teacher sounds great. As you teach music to your students it will push you to learn more about it, as well. If you ever want to learn more about music genres like jazz, classical, or world fusion, let me know.

[Speaker 2] I'd love to learn about different types of music. I feel like there's so much to learn about, well, everything! How did you ever choose what to major in?

[Speaker 1] I thought about what areas interested me the most, and I did a lot of research on careers in those areas. I wanted to be sure that major I chose would allow me to have a career that I enjoyed and provided me with a living wage. It's a good thing that the major and job you're thinking about are in an area that you already like.

[Speaker 2] That makes sense, I'm interested in so many things, but teaching music has been on my radar since I learned to play guitar. I do like the satisfaction of helping someone learn.

[Speaker 1] That's great. Do you think you could teach me to learn to play the guitar. That would give you some teaching practice.

[Speaker 2] Sure! I'd love to! Are you interested in acoustic or electric?

[Speaker 1] I have no idea! Which is easier to learn?

[Speaker 2] Hmmm I'd have to say acoustic probably, no amp to worry about!

[Speaker 1] Great! When can we start?

[Speaker 2] Just about any time really, I can make time most evenings or weekends.

[Speaker 2] What kind of cake? I love pastries!

[Speaker 1] The most amazing red velvet cake you have ever encountered! It is definitely worth a trip up here to try it.

[Speaker 2] I'm ready for a slice! So how's your brother doing?

[Speaker 1] He's doing okay. Back in school and struggling to make rent. But I'm trying to be emotional support for him. He just doesn't seem motivated. Thanks for asking. I know it's awkward for you since you guys used to date back in the day. But now that you are all married off, I guess it's not weird anymore.

[Speaker 2] I'm sorry to hear he's not doing better. We stayed friends for a while, but I haven't heard from him in some time.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, the 10 year reunion is coming up for you guys. Are you going to go? He's on Facebook but I don't think he goes on there much.

[Speaker 2] Maybe we can all get together and hit a local steak house! I'm hankering for a good martini and a big slice of prime rib, baked potato and creamed spinach!

[Speaker 1] Oh, man, they that sounds like a plan. They have a new Brazilian steakhouse down the road from me called Fogo de Chao. Best steak you'll ever taste. Now I'm hungry. You should bring your wife, if you can get a babysitter.

My brother is in school and doesn't have much money. My brother is on Facebook. There is a 10 year reunion being planned between Speaker 1, 2 and the brother.

I eat meat. I love steak, desserts, astries. I don't live in the same town as speaker 1.

I used to date speaker 1's brother. I am now married to someone else. I am still friends with the brother but we haven't spoken recently.

I like red velvet cake, martinis, baked potato and creamed spinach.

I have a child. I have a wife.

I don't live far from Speaker 1.

[Speaker 1] I've spoken with my brother and he would like to meet as well.

[Speaker 2] Sure. Maybe we could all meet up somewhere. How about a karaoke bar? You could sing for us if you want and we could grab some dessert.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like it would be so fun! I know my brother is excited to see you again and I am too.

[Speaker 2] Cool. I know we're having a 10 year reunion soon, but I thought it would be fun if we could catch up just amongst ourselves. You mentioned you like to sing. What's your favorite type of music? Do you have a favorite song to sing?

[Speaker 1] I really like to sing pop songs that are on the radio, just because they are in my head all the time, but my favorite music to listen to is jazz! Do you have a favorite kind of music?

[Speaker 2] I love 80's music. Michael Jackson, Cindy Lauper, Journey - that sort of thing. It reminds me of a simpler time in my life. I thought of you earlier today. My wife made an amazing red velvet cake. If you want, I'll email you the recipe she used. It tasted divine.

[Speaker 1] That is cool music! That cake sounds amazing, we would love the recipe. How has your wife been doing?

[Speaker 2] She's great. She was a nurse but now she stays home with our baby. She wants to stay home until he starts school. It's a bit of a budget crunch but we're making it work. How is your brother doing? When we last spoke he was having financial troubles.

[Speaker 1] He is doing pretty well. His company had some issues and so he took a financial hit, but I think he is feeling more confident now.

[Speaker 2] That's good to hear. Even though our relationship ended, I have always wanted the best for him. I know financial difficulties can be hard to recover from. I'm glad he's bouncing back.

[Speaker 1] I know that he feels the same about you! It's always a cool thing to remain good friends and want good things for someone after you have broken up.

[Speaker 2] True. We want what's best for each other, even when what's best was us not being together. Check with him and see when you all are able to meet up for Karaoke. Let's get something scheduled soon. I'm excited to see you both.

[Speaker 2] Indeed. Quiet but confident. That's me.

[Speaker 1] Anything else you like to do?

[Speaker 2] One day I'll operate a food truck. I think they are awesome.

[Speaker 1] That would be an awesome thing to do!

[Speaker 2] I worry about parking when somewhere new. Ll, what about the food truck?

[Speaker 1] No it is a great thing to have a dream and go after it!

[Speaker 2] I like your style janet.

My name is Janet. I live at home. I like death metal.

My mother is a janitor. I love watching cartoons.

Both my parents are dead.

I am confident in my abilities.

I am quiet.

I want to operate a food truck.

[Speaker 1] Are you any closer to getting a food truck?

[Speaker 2] Just saving up for it.  What bands do you listen to?

[Speaker 1] Cool. My favorite band is Five Finger Death Punch, what about you, do you like music?

[Speaker 2] I love all types of music.  5FDP is awesome.  Wish concerts would come back.  Miss the live shows.

[Speaker 1] I do as well, they are so fun to go to. Have you ever been to a 5FDP concert before?

[Speaker 2] No haven't seen the live yet.  I would to see them.  Heard the pit is crazy.  Do you go in the pit?

[Speaker 1] It is really crazy but really fun to be in the pit. I have been in the pit at both of the concerts that I have been to from them.

[Speaker 2] So what cartoons are you in to?

[Speaker 1] Tom and Jerry is my favorite cartoon. What about yours?

[Speaker 2] OMG, that is my favorite too.  I liked the animaniacs too, but they are not on anymore.

[Speaker 1] That was a good one as well. I wish the old cartoons would come back.

[Speaker 2] Me too, they were so much better than what they have today.

My name is Janet. I live at home. My mother is a janitor. I like death metal.

I was in the pit on two 5FDP live shows.

I love watching cartoons. My favorite cartoon is Tom and Jerry. I want old cartoons to come back.

Both my parents are dead.

I am confident in my abilities. I am quiet.

I am saving for food truck.

I haven't been on live shows.

[Speaker 1] I just found out an article that Tom and Jerry will have new series with better graphics.

[Speaker 2] No way! When are they planning to premier it?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure exactly but hopefully soon!  Have you seen the preview for the new Tom and Jerry movie?  If so, what did you think of it?

[Speaker 2] I have. Honestly, it doesn't seem like it'll be much like the original cartoon. It's too focused on the live characters. What are your thoughts on it?

[Speaker 1] You pretty much stated them.  Ha ha!  I don't like when they mix cartoons with live characters, like new Smurfs movies and Alvin & the Chipmunks.  I prefer just straight up cartoons.  No mixing!

[Speaker 2] Same! I honestly thought they left that in the early 2000s haha, but with all these reboots, it seems like they're trying to recycle old conventions too.

[Speaker 1] Right?!  They just need to keep the classic cartoons as is.  Did you ever tell me what kind of food truck you want to have?  I can't remember! :/

[Speaker 2] A Vietnamese food truck! I'm planning on starting with sandwiches, egg/spring rolls, and drinks, and maybe later I'll add pho and fried rice.

[Speaker 1] That sounds delicious!  How exciting!  I want to try it all!  Where did you learn how to cook Vietnamese food?

[Speaker 2] My mom taught me! She's Vietnamese and she wanted me to know everything about her culture. She taught my dad a few things too! He's Italian. If this food truck is a success, I might open up a Vietnamese-Italian fusion restaurant.

[Speaker 1] That is so cool.  You have a great heritage!  I'm sure it'll be a success!  A fusion restaurant would be amazing!  I can't only imagine the types of dishes you might serve!

[Speaker 2] I'm really excited! I've already been thinking up some crazy dishes to serve, but I'm trying to stay focused on the food truck, haha. Once I have a menu, finalized, would you like to be a taste tester?

I like death metal. My favorite band is Five Finger Death Punch.

My favorite cartoon is Tom and Jerry. I want old cartoons to come back. I've seen the preview for the new Tom and Jerry movie. I don't like when cartoons are mixed with live characters; I prefer regular cartoons. I like classic cartoons.

I like Vietnamese food.

My name is Robert. I live with my brother.  Both my parents are dead.

I am saving for food truck.

I like all types of music. I miss live shows. I haven't been on live shows.

My favorite cartoon is Tom and Jerry. I liked the animaniacs. I think old cartoons are better than new ones.

I've seen the preview for the new Tom and Jerry movie. I don't like when cartoons are mixed with live characters; I prefer regular cartoons. I was alive in the early 2000s.

I want to have a Vietnamese food truck. My mom taught me to make Vietnamese food. My mom is Vietnamese and my dad is Italian. I might open a Vietnamese-Italian fusion restaurant in the future.

[Speaker 1] I love Vietnamese food and I'm thinking of learning how to make it.

[Speaker 2] I think that is a great idea, and I want to help. Do you have any experience cooking?

[Speaker 1] Very little--I cook more often out of necessity than for fun.

[Speaker 2] Oh okay. Cooking is so fun, and I suggest trying to make some new things just to see how you would like them.

[Speaker 1] Can I get good ingredients for Vietnamese food at normal grocery stores or should I find a special market?

[Speaker 2] You can get some basic ones at normal grocery stores, but there are some great Vietnamese specific stores that will provide exactly what you need.

[Speaker 1] That's good to know! I'd love to try making pho but I hear it's really, really difficult

[Speaker 2] Some of those dishes are really tough to make. Once you get the hang of it it gets a lot better, and I know you will.

[Speaker 1] Speaking of cooking food---the idea of Vietnamese-Italian fushion is really really cool. What kind of dishes do you want to make?

[Speaker 2] I made this delicious Vietnamese Spaghetti that I would definitely recommend.

[Speaker 1] Oooh! What kinds of sauce does that have?

[Speaker 2] I made it with a nice Vietnamese-fused red sauce. It mixed perfect with that pasta!

I am not a vegan or vegetarian.

My children love pancakes.

[Speaker 1] I spent yesterday cutting down some elms and thought about your pesky trees while I was doing it.

[Speaker 2] I bet that's a nice workout! What do you use to cut the trees?

[Speaker 1] I've got some good machinery. Like a hot knife through butter!

[Speaker 2] Did you know if you go to Quebec you can cut down trees and harvest your own maple syrup! It would taste so good fresh from the tree.

[Speaker 1] No I did not know that. I must do that! Bet your kids would love that too. How are they?

[Speaker 2] Yeah they love lots of syrup on their pancakes. They're great thanks for asking. My two girls have joined a new soccer team for this soccer.

[Speaker 1] Oh great, how old are they?

[Speaker 2] 8 and 9. They wanted to try and play competitive this year so we joined a rep team and that is scouted by the national team.

[Speaker 1] Awesome, I bet they'll do great. Do you watch soccer? I like to watch English soccer.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I watch the Premier league too and also catch an MLS game when my local team is playing. Have you seen any games in person?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, when I was in the UK, I got to go to watch Manchester United. It was an amazing experience!

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah the crowds there are crazy. I love how much the fans support the teams.

I love cutting trees.

I am a lumberjack.

[Speaker 1] Have you played any soccer with your kids since I last spoke to you?

[Speaker 2] Yes I have we had some practice running through some of the drills they have learned at their training sessions. What part of the UK are you from again?

[Speaker 1] I'm from skegness.  I'm a lumberjack!  I've been looking for a good pancake shop.

[Speaker 2] Being a lumberjack must be hard work but I imagine you are very fit and strong.

[Speaker 1] Oh man, you have no idea.  I cut down seven elm trees yesterday.  Have you watched MLS lately?

[Speaker 2] Wow 7 trees huh that sounds intense. Yes I have but my team is really struggling. Do you have a team you follow in the MLS?

[Speaker 1] Honestly, I'm a Man United supporter.  Have been since the days before I was a lumberjack.   Having a hard time getting maple syrup these days?

[Speaker 2] No not really. Are you? Interesting I like to watch Manchester City myself. What part of the UK is Skegness in?

[Speaker 1] I dunno.  It's somewhere near Bristol, I think.  There's a bridge nearby.  And we have a statue of a wallaby.

[Speaker 2] A statue of a wallaby that is cool. Do you like to play soccer or just watch?

[Speaker 1] Both.  I grew up playing footie.  When I'm not playing, I love to cheer on Man U.

[Speaker 2] That is cool I never really played but my daughters were into it from a very early age so I have really grown to love the sport especially the more I watch. I hope they get as far as they dream of.


I see a thriller film every weekend.

Often we would fantasize about being powerful people.

When I was little I'd dress like a superhero.

My mother and father would allow my sibling and I to come during our childhood.

I invested in real estate.

I'm particular about the taste of my beverages.

I enjoy fixing my brew.

I like people of the same sex and gender as me.

[Speaker 2] My gay partner and I just purchased one

[Speaker 1] I am a dancer, what do you do?

[Speaker 2] Nothing you do not already know!

[Speaker 1] Well, if that is all there is to life

[Speaker 2] No there is much, much more. Like beer and coffee for example


I was accepted to participate.

Anyways I decided to give it a try and participaed in an audition for a talent show.

I m a shy person but I love to sing.

Until recently I ve never been able to sing in front of anyone.

I'm strong.
I am tall.
I never eat veggies.
I love to run fast.

I was approved.

I tried out to be on stage.

When I am alone I belt out the most beautiful songs.

I have stage fright.

I've a lot of power.

Friends always ask me to reach things in high places.

I don't like carrots.

I enjoy speed.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you this morning?

[Speaker 2] Good just back from my daily run

[Speaker 1] I used to run, I am practicing my song for the talent show.

[Speaker 2] Nice I love running and yoga but hate vegetables

[Speaker 1] I do not like veggies either. I am very shy, are you an outgoing person?

[Speaker 2] Yeah my strength makes me a big help at the dog shelter

[Speaker 1] I love dogs! Do you have one?

[Speaker 2] I've 2 dogs but I am so tall we cant all fit on couch

[Speaker 1] That is too bad, I do not have one yet.

[Speaker 2] Aww everyone should have a dog

[Speaker 1] I agree, we never had one when I was a kid. Not enough room.

[Speaker 2] I grew up in apartments so I understand

[Speaker 1] Where do you live now?

[Speaker 2] Memphis is where the work brought me

[Speaker 1] I love memphis! Graceland is my favorite place.

[Speaker 2] I miss michigan where my grandmother raised us

I am practicing for a talent show.
I do not like veggies. I am shy.
I love dogs.
I do not have any dog.
Graceland is my favorite place.

I run daily.

I love yoga. I hate veggies.

I volunteer at a dog shelter.

I have 2 tall dogs.

I grew up in an apartment.

I live in Memphis.

My granmother raised me. I misses Michigan. I grew up in Michigan.

[Speaker 1] My mother in law called and invited me to go with her. Since I am so shy I want to impress her with my knowledge please help.

[Speaker 2] Have you tried self help books?  Yoga can also help relax you so you can learn how to be more assertive.

[Speaker 1] I am very apprehensive about buying a yoga based self help book. There are no self help books in Graceland.

[Speaker 2] You can order a book on Amazon and have it delivered.

[Speaker 1] Weirdly, that is exactly how I learned my talent for the upcoming show.  I ordered a book on vegetable juggling from Amazon. I hope that I can go with my mother in law.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a very interesting book but I thought you hated vegetables?  I would love to see vegetable juggling though.  That sounds impressive!

[Speaker 1] It is better to juggle things you hate was part of the books description.  Do you think my mother in law would like to see my act?

[Speaker 2] I'm sure she would love your act!  You should get a dog and make that part of your act as well.  I know support animals can help with shyness.

[Speaker 1] I don't know if I could juggle a dog.  Remember, it is best to juggle things you hate.  Like beets, or onions. My mother in law likes vegetables though, so it is a pretty anxious thing to show her my act.

[Speaker 2] I was thinking you could teach a dog to juggle the vegetables with you.  We train dogs at the dog shelter to do some really amazing things like that.

[Speaker 1] I see.  Dogs do hate vegetables, maybe they can juggle them after all.  Do you think I should start with one dog or two?

[Speaker 2] I think you should probably just start with one dog.  Hopefully your mother in law likes animals.  If you have a dog with you during your act, maybe you will be able to relax and feel as shy.

I love dogs. I do not have any dog.

Graceland is my favorite place.

I am shy.

I am doing vegetable juggling. I do not like veggies. I have vegetable juggling book.

My mother in law likes vegetables.

I will attend upcoming talent show.

I run daily.

I love yoga. I hate veggies.

I have 2 tall dogs.

I live in Memphis.

I grew up in an apartment in Michigan. My granmother raised me. I misses Michigan.

I know support animals can help with shyness. I am a volunteer and training dogs in dog shelters.

[Speaker 1] My mother in law asked if I can take her dog to the talent show. Do you think it is a good idea?

[Speaker 2] It might be a bit stressful, how does her dog usually deal with stressful situations? There might be a lot of people thetre

[Speaker 1] He's usually okay with big groups. What kinds of dogs are most likely to have issues with large groups? Her dog is a German shepherd.

[Speaker 2] It really depends on the dog and what it is used to, it might be fine, they might enjoy it if they enjoy attention! Is it far to travel to or is it quite close?

[Speaker 1] It's not too far at all. In fact, we're going to walk there. I figured walking there might help the dog stay calm, because I know he loves walks. What do you think?

[Speaker 2] Ah ok, if it's as close as that then why not give it a go, if he does start to look stressed you can always walk home again. Will you be performing your juggling in the show or are you just there to watch?

[Speaker 1] I am doing my juggling! There's a really cool routine in my book that I'm going to try. I know it sounds a little ridiculous, but I think it will go over really well. After all, how often do you get to see someone juggling vegetables? Haha. Do you have any talents like that?

[Speaker 2] I've for sure never seen anyone juggling vegetables, that's probably the best thing you can do with vegetables I think! I hope it goes well for you. I don't have any usual talents like that, nothing that anybody would want to watch anyway! I spend most of my spare time volunteering or doing yoga. I suppose I could do a yoga act with my dogs!

[Speaker 1] Now that would be impressive. I bet you could even raise some money for the dog shelters you volunteer at. You could do a whole show! Better yet, you could start a "Yoga with Dogs" class, and have the shelter animals with you while you do a yoga class. That would be fun.

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, that's a thought, people would probably love the chance to do yoga with their dogs! I can picture it getting a bit out of hand though, dogs running everywhere and people falling over! Does sound fun though!

[Speaker 1] Haha, maybe just with puppies, then, kind of like they do with the goats! I've always thought that looked like fun. I do wish I had a pet of my own to do these things with, you know?

[Speaker 1] Thanks! I will be sure to let you know how it goes.

[Speaker 2] Good luck! I'm sure it'll come out great. I've been doing a bit more Greek-inspired cooking lately, and my friends have loved it.

[Speaker 1] Yum! What dishes have you made? I've never tried to cook Greek food before.

[Speaker 2] Last weekend I went kind of fusion, turkey burgers with sun dried tomatos, fresh dill, feta, Greek style seasonings, and tzatziki sauce. I might try gyros next!

[Speaker 1] Wow! That sounds delicious! Tzatziki is a yogurt based sauce, right?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I learned how to make it when I was real young, since my Greek neighbors used to watch me when my parents weren't home.

[Speaker 1] Cool! I didn't start cooking until I was older, my parents didn't cook very often.

[Speaker 2] My dad has had a home office for a long as I can remember, so he'd have all day to do stuff like pot roasts that had to cook for a long time but didn't need constant attention. He's always been a very good cook. I didn't really do any full meals until college, but I always liked to help out on sides, appetizers, and desserts.

[Speaker 1] I love chocolate ice cream I try to eat it every week do you have a favorite flavor?

[Speaker 1] I would agree what other kind of foods do you like?

[Speaker 2] Well let's see, you've mentioned Chinese, Greek, Mexican food, and ice cream... I'm beginning to think you have a food fetish! Maybe you'll be a cook for a living some day

[Speaker 2] Many of them do, yes. Sometimes I've tried to figure out English and Irish food. Scones are a favorite, although sometimes their main courses... I'll stick to the scones!

[Speaker 1] oh nice I'll have to try to look for those next time I eat out

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a good plan. I'll be curious what you do with all this appreciation for food. Perhaps you'll be a food critic some day.

[Speaker 1] maybe with friends lol I don't think I am cut out for being a critic
