My favorite food is spaghetti and meatballs.

I'm not afraid of what others think.

I can be quite forgetful.

My boyfriend works for nasa.

I have danced since I was two.

I can say the alphabet backwards.

I lost my job as a banker a month ago.

I am a redhead.

I got engaged to be married in paris, france.

I cok a lot of italian dishes.

I don't listen to the opinions of most people.

I often enter a room only to stop and wonder why I came there.

My significant other is involved in space flight.

My mom signed me up for ballet when I was a small child.

I speak the letters back ways.

I became unemployed from the bank recently.

My hair is red.

I'm going to have my wedding in europe.

[Speaker 1] Hello my name is ted. Big plans for the weekend?

[Speaker 2] Just got done at dance practice. You?

[Speaker 1] I'm just hanging out. My boyfriend is working this weekend so I'm bored.

[Speaker 2] I just lost my banking job a month ago, so I'm bored too.

[Speaker 1] Oh no what do you do in your free time?

[Speaker 2] Dance. And I jost got engaged, so wedding planning.

[Speaker 1] I could never get married. I'd forget my ring everywhere!

[Speaker 2] I love my ring. Its gorgeous. He designed it himself.

[Speaker 1] Wow what are you serving at the wedding? I love spaghetti myself.

[Speaker 2] I've not decided on a menu yet, but we are going to be in paris.

[Speaker 1] How lovely paris is magnificent!

[Speaker 2] It is gorgeous. My fiancee is from france.

[Speaker 1] Wow you are so lucky. French accents are sexy!

[Speaker 2] Oui oui! I'm trying to learn french.

My name is Ted.
I have a boyfriend.
I am not married.
I like spaghetti.

I enjoy dance.

I lost my job as a banker a month ago.

I just got engaged. My fiance designed my engagement ring. I will be getting married in Paris, France. My fiance is French. I am learning to speak French.

[Speaker 1] How is the wedding planning coming along?

[Speaker 2] Really well! I have decided that a traditional wedding is not for me. Why do we have to adhere to this rigid structure of role and ceremonies? If im going to be shelling out all this money, I might as well do it the way I want

[Speaker 1] Yes! If I was to ever get married I would want to go all out too. I want to do a destination wedding, where my family would have to fly there and meet us. How long did it take for your fiance to design your ring?

[Speaker 2] Months, he really wanted to make it personal. Maybe we are too focussed on doing things unconventionally, but its not a diamond ring. Its opalite, my favorite stone

[Speaker 1] I have never heard of that stone before. My boyfriend likes to give me ring pops and pretends to propose all the time. But we are still not married.

[Speaker 2] Well I think thats just the sweetest. I dont think a couple should feel pressured to rush into marriage, good things are worth waiting for

[Speaker 1] I agree. I feel like if it is rushed it is fake. I do not mind waiting a few more years for that special day. How long were you two together before getting engaged?

[Speaker 2] 5 years! We wanted time to travel around and really get to know each other. Now he's my best friend, and I feel like theres nothing I cant tell him

[Speaker 1] I wish I could  be at the point where I told my partner anything. One day we will be and I am looking forward to that. Many good things will come to those that wait!

[Speaker 2] Exactly. Cheesy sayings might be overused, but they do make points

[Speaker 1] I know! I feel like I sound so cheesy sometimes, but they make so much sense and relate to many things in my life. How was it when your partner proposed? Were you surprised?

[Speaker 2] Suprised by the moment but not by the concept. We were seeing one of our favorite bands in concert, and he proposed during our favorite song. The band invited us up on stage, it was such a special moment!

My name is Ted.

I have a boyfriend. I am not married. I want a destination wedding. I do not mind waiting a few years.

I like spaghetti.

I enjoy dance.

I lost my job as a banker a month ago.

I just got engaged. My fiance took months to design my engagement ring. The ring is not diamond but opalite my favourite stone. I will be getting married in Paris, France. My fiance is French. I am learning to speak French. I am not having a traditional wedding. We were together for 5 years.

I was surprised when my partner proposed. He proposed during a concert.

[Speaker 1] How are your wedding plans going.

[Speaker 2] Still working at learning French.  It is not easy.

[Speaker 1] I took french in high school but don't remember much at all. It definitely takes a lot of hard work to learn a new language as an adult.

[Speaker 2] It is an odd concept to have masculine and feminine parts of speech.  I guess it was a choice on my part to learn.  I now question that choice.

[Speaker 1] I agree that that was an odd concept to me as well. but I think it's great you are doing it. What made you choose to get married in Paris?

[Speaker 2] I think it is romantic.  I also think that since he is French we had to pick one or the other.  The details are a little difficult though.  So far my family is onboard.  It will be a big trip for everyone.

[Speaker 1] I'd love to have a destination wedding some day. Just have to get the boyfriend to finally propose!

[Speaker 2] The sky is the limit when it comes to weddings.  We are going to have a ceremony in a nice hotel.  Then the fun starts.  I kind of wanted a theme, like 1920's.  But some did not like that at all.history things.

[Speaker 1] Have you picked wedding colors yet? what kind of flowers? Does France have any special flowers that are not common here?

[Speaker 2] Colors will be a lot of blue's.  I suppose that is not traditional.  There will be limited flowers, I want less to clean up after.  I found nothing unusual in terms of flowers used in Paris.

[Speaker 1] So what concert were you at when your fiance proposed?

[Speaker 2] It was a Portishead concert.  There is nothing like grungy electronica to make a girl feel special.


I am a mother.
I'm a patriot.
The sky looks beautiful to me.
I used to wrestle.

I sometimes go for a stroll outside.

I have a great wifi system.

I'm really smart.

I watched a total eclipsed when I was young.

[Speaker 1] Hello, I am apart of the military.

[Speaker 2] Hi, thank you for your service! What do you like to do in your spare time?

[Speaker 1] Well I hang out with my son, he is a high school wrestler just like I was.

[Speaker 2] Cool. I love to play chess. I pretty much win every time I play.

[Speaker 1] That's cool. My favorite color is the color on my navy uniform, blue!

[Speaker 2] I like blue too. I also enjoy walking. Especially on days I'm not busy.

[Speaker 1] That is nice. Tell me more about yourself.

[Speaker 2] Well I just seen the solar eclipse again. Last time I was 8 when I seen it.

[Speaker 1] That's cool. Well, formation is soon. Anything else?

[Speaker 2] Is your internet fast? Mine is high speed. I hate slow connections.

[Speaker 1] Mine is military grade, so its not that good lol

[Speaker 2] That stinks. What else do you do in your spare time?

[Speaker 1] Not much. My husband is actually in the army so that wasn't a lie lol

[Speaker 2] Where are you from? I live in ohio.

[Speaker 1] We are stationed in texas.

[Speaker 2] How is the weather? It has been raining here all day!


It is difficult for me to connect to others.

I did not have many friends in high school.

I love my pets.

My self expression is typically through painting.

Shouting is exciting.

I recently left the university.
I love living in california.
I believe in love at first sight.
My emotions are always easy to discern.

[Speaker 1] How are you doing today

[Speaker 2] I am doing ok, how are you?

[Speaker 1] I'm great. I wish I could get my emotions out.

[Speaker 2] Well I would love to help you. What is on your mind?

[Speaker 1] Art. I need to paint

[Speaker 2] My old college had art classes, maybe you could try that

[Speaker 1] That would be interesting. I like being alone.

[Speaker 2] I like showing my emotions. Art helps. Are you in the la area by chance?

[Speaker 1] No. I'm in canada.

[Speaker 2] I see. I feel like I need to find my true love. Maybe I should try canada.

[Speaker 1] You ever heard of the song my girlfriend in canada

[Speaker 2] No I've not. Who is it by?

[Speaker 1] It is off of a musical

[Speaker 2] Musicals are great but too expensive. I cannot even afford an apartment.


I grew up well off.

I prefer things to be authentic.

I have a lot of money and like to buy expensive things.

I have made some bad choices in the past.

I am not a fan of children.

I like to buy clothes.
I love fried potato sticks.
I do not like numbers.
That thing is not large enough.

[Speaker 1] Hey, do you have any kids?

[Speaker 2] Hi! No, I shop in my spare time. Do you?

[Speaker 1] Good I don't like kids.

[Speaker 2] So I guess you don't have any.

[Speaker 1] No, none of my ex wives got pregnant

[Speaker 2] Well that is good. Ouch, my stomach hurts.

[Speaker 1] Why does your stomach hurt??

[Speaker 2] I ate a huge box of french fries!

[Speaker 1] That's not good. I hate them

[Speaker 2] Do you just hate everything?

[Speaker 1] Yes probably. Except my 3 cars.

[Speaker 2] What kind of cars do you have?

[Speaker 1] I have some sports cars.

[Speaker 2] Cool. I have a new sweater I could wear for a ride in one!

[Speaker 1] What color is it? Do you want to marry me?

[Speaker 2] Red. But you probably hate red.

[Speaker 1] Omg that place is beautiful! Wanted to head out there but I followed my fathers footsteps

[Speaker 2] The sunsets were beautiful, the sky and the water would just glow this perfect shade of orange

I have a part time job at a pizza shop.

I like parties.

I like Imagine Dragons.  I like the beach.

I want to start a business.

[Speaker 1] What kind of business are you interested in opening?

[Speaker 2] I'm thinking of starting my own pizza shop. I've been saving my money, so hopefully in a couple years ill have enough to do it.

[Speaker 1] That would be a cool idea, what kind of pizza shop?  Would you set up a franchise or do you have your own idea for a shop?

[Speaker 2] Ill start small. Maybe franchise it later if it does super well. But i want to move to the beach, so I'm going to call it Beached Dragon Pizza Party House.

[Speaker 1] LOL I love that name, you could have Imagine Dragons playing in the background!  If you need any help with the accounting let me know and i'll give you a hand.

[Speaker 2] Yea that would be so great! Maybe if my place gets famous enough they will come play. How cool would that be. Oh thanks for the offer, I might take you up on it.

[Speaker 1] That would be cool if they came to play, anything is possible right!  Im going to a party tonight, think I should bring my violin to serenade everyone?

[Speaker 2] Only if you are good. HAHA. Violin is so hard, but if your good, theres no better instrument, but if your bad, its really terrible.

[Speaker 1] I would say im decent enough, people normally seem to like it but maybe they are just being nice!  I think i'll leave it home tonight and focus more on the beer.

[Speaker 2] Ah, thats probably a good thing. I dunno if you want the nickname of drunken violinist. What kind of party is it?

[Speaker 1] A friend is throwing a part to celebrate his graduation from college.  Should be a good one.

[Speaker 1] I ended up bringing the Violin to the party, it was so fun.

[Speaker 2] oh good, did everyone enjoy your playing?

[Speaker 1] Yes, they loved it! Perhaps it was because everyone had already had so much beer, but either way, it seemed to be well-received!

[Speaker 2] Ha, well a little alcohol always helps people enjoy music more! I love parties. Maybe I can come to the next one?

[Speaker 1] Absolutely! We'd love to have you! Maybe you could bring along some pizza?

[Speaker 2] Definitely! I could use some feedback before I officially open my pizza shop.

[Speaker 1] I'd be happy to offer my two cents! I could even suggest some beers for you to pair with the pizza!

[Speaker 2] Well, you're a full service operation! Because I was also thinking of asking if you would be my accountant!

[Speaker 1] Agreed! I live in the south so we are getting ready for the storm.

[Speaker 2] Oh my gosh, me too. Its scary stuff.

[Speaker 1] Yes I am in atlanta and people are freaking out.

[Speaker 2] I am in tampa, where the eye will soon pass over. I am s. O. L.

[Speaker 1] Oh no! Are you staying put?

[Speaker 2] Yes, for I live in a concert apartment

[Speaker 1] I hear traffic is awful and there's no where to stay anyway.

[Speaker 2] False! Local traffic is terrific, but the interstates are horrible.

[Speaker 1] Good luck and stay safe!

[Speaker 2] Thank you, do the same


I live close to the coast.
I've red hair.
I work at a retail store.
I'm vegan.

Until then I'll make 215 an hour.

I hope it to become a doctor one day.

I make and me by waiting tables.

I'm a college student who is a full time working mom.

I cannot wait to start my new life.

I enjoy living near the beach.

People call me a ginger.

I spend a lot of my time at the mall where I work at dillards.

I don't eat meat or anything made from animals.

I want to help people.
I'm a waiter.

I just got a divorce.

[Speaker 1] Hi there. Did you read the news about the new outlet going in at the beach?

[Speaker 2] No. I'm too busy working and waiting on tables.

[Speaker 1] Lucky. Bet you meet lots of interesting ppl. What king of restaurant?

[Speaker 2] I do. I am a mom working full time as well as a college student.

[Speaker 1] I wish I had taken management classes. What s your major?

[Speaker 2] Phd in medicine. Can not wait to be a doctor and start a new life!

[Speaker 1] Are you finished with your ta positions?

[Speaker 2] I am. What do you do for a living? I make 215 an hour.

[Speaker 1] I work retail. Never going to get rich but love the clientele

[Speaker 2] That's what matters most. Pointless to be rich if you hate what you do.

[Speaker 1] I have a great balance work in the field I'm passionate about and surf when off!

[Speaker 2] That's cool! What is your favorite type of music? I like all kinds.

[Speaker 1] For a while, red hot chili peppers but only because it s my fav color

[Speaker 2] How about a tv show? My favorite right now is the walking dead.

[Speaker 1] No tv. Os that 215 hr. What your specialty?

[Speaker 2] Oh that's 2. 15 since I'm still a waitress.

I work retail.
I like to surf.
My favorite color is red.
I do not have a TV.

I have children.

I am pursuing a PhD in medicine. I want to be a doctor.

I like music.

I like the Walking Dead.

[Speaker 1] How is your job waiting tables going?

[Speaker 2] I'm trying my best. The work community is great but customers can be so rude sometimes!

[Speaker 1] Oh really? What's your worst experience with a customer?

[Speaker 2] Someone refused to pay because they were convinced I was flirting with their girlfriend! I very much was not, being friendly is part of the job requirements. But the bill was taken out of my paycheck!

[Speaker 1] Oh no that sucks! I'm sorry you had to experience that. Good thing this is only a transition for you, once you have your PHD and start practicing you will not need to work this job again.

[Speaker 2] Thats the dream. I wish education was more accessible than what it is. You can't get a high paying position without degrees but you can't afford a degree without the income of a high paying job (or loads of debt)

[Speaker 1] Yes, I agree. And much more time is needed for higher degrees, but you can't afford to spend that much time and effort on education if you don't have the money.

[Speaker 2] So much about our country needs to be restructured. My dad had to get back surgery recently and the bills were through the roof.

[Speaker 1] Sorry to hear that. I hope he had insurance to cover most expenses.

[Speaker 2] Thankfully he did. Whats your relationship with your dad, if you dont mind me asking

[Speaker 1] I have a good relationship with my dad. He is a single parent so it has been tough for him to raise us on his own.

[Speaker 2] I can only imagine. Good on him for rising to the challenge, parenting can be hard. My kids have had their moments, but I do love them to death

I work retail.

I have a good relationship with my dad. he was a single parent.

I work waiting tables full time. I make 215 an hour. the work community is great but the customers can be rude.

I have children.

I like music. I like the Walking Dead.

My dad recently had back surgery and had high medical bills from it.

[Speaker 1] Did you have any interesting customers today?

[Speaker 2] I most certainly did! A couple of big lawyers came in for lunch and got very drunk then left me a giant tip and then said they had a court case that afternoon!

[Speaker 1] That is pretty crazy, imagine having boozed up lawyers defending you in court. Hopefully it is just a minor case!

[Speaker 2] I would not be happy! Especially with how much I have heard their firm charges. How was work for you today?

[Speaker 1] It was nothing special. I work in an old school Italian grocery store. I love the customers, a lot of older people that are pretty hilarious. But there is also the usual: a guy dropped a tub of burrata cheese on the floor and just walked away. It spilled everywhere. I don't mind cleaning it at all, its my job, but I think it's just human decency to notify someone when that happens.

[Speaker 2] I bet you get to meet some really cool old Italian people! But yeah that is one of the most annoying parts of working in the service industry is how rude people can be sometimes.

[Speaker 1] Oh they are the most adorable. A lot of the retired ones just like to get a coffee at the cafe that is adjoined to the store and then they just stay and chat all day. I have heard some crazy stories. I also sometimes play cards with them during the break, they have taught me some pretty fun games.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a lot of fun! I have never really played cards before, but I would love to have a cafe right next door during my breaks.


After almost half a decade my partner and I are engaged.

My ultimate goal would be calling a ball game.

I'm struggling to make ends meet.

I like the adult cartoons.

I've a commercial license.

I spent my entire life in the sunflower state.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you? I'm exhausted and headed to my third job

[Speaker 2] Well, I do farm work! What are your 3 jobs? Sounds like a lot!

[Speaker 1] They're boring. I hope to be an announcer for baseball someday

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun! I am from kansas!

[Speaker 1] I have never been there. Lots of farms?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, and it is really, really, really boring!

[Speaker 1] I'm sure. Make things more exciting and listen to avenged sevenfold

[Speaker 2] I love that band! Do you like zip lining? I do!

[Speaker 1] I actually proposed to my girlfriend on a zipline recently!

[Speaker 2] I hope she was happy and said yes?

[Speaker 1] Yes she did! We have been together for 3 years.

[Speaker 2] Actually, so my girlfriend and I!

[Speaker 1] Do you think you'll propose soon?

[Speaker 2] I think so, I just have to get up the nerve!

[Speaker 1] You should do it soon!

[Speaker 2] I should indeed! I want to go to a real nice restaurant!

Being a parent is a core part of my existence.

[Speaker 1] Hi! How are you doing today?

[Speaker 2] Hello! How are you doing today?

[Speaker 1] Just fine! Just a relaxing day listening to music, reading, watching tv

[Speaker 2] That sounds great! My husband used to love watching the tv but I was always a reader.

[Speaker 1] Did he watch sitcoms by chance? There's a new political thriller coming out

[Speaker 2] Mostly sports and war movies. They were always too violent for the girls to watch.

[Speaker 1] Do you listen to music?

[Speaker 2] I do! Paperback writer is my favorite song. I always wanted to be a writer.

[Speaker 1] Writers make great people to have conversations with

[Speaker 2] I had the best friends in college and we had the most amazing conversations.

[Speaker 1] I would talk to strangers on the subway on my way to college

[Speaker 2] I went for english and I just loved it! What did you study?

I like to listen to music, read and watch TV.

I commuted to college.

I like to read.
I have daughters.
I've always wanted to write songs.
I studied English in college.

[Speaker 1] The rain stopped so i decided to go for a walk with my dog.

[Speaker 2] I didn't know you had a dog, or that it was raining. I was reading a book and having a nice evening with a warm cup of coffee by my window watching the snow fall. What kind of dog do you have? What do you like to read?

[Speaker 1] I have a Husky; his name is Toby. He's a big boy but a gentle dog. Well, when Toby is not bothering me to take him our or get him food, I enjoy reading historical fiction. Anything about kings, queens, knights, wars, fights, political games, and so on. What book are you reading currently?

[Speaker 2] I am actually reading a newer book right now, about dragons. I am on the 4th book in a 7 book series and it is really interesting, but the author did not do a good edit. I also loved reading about King Authur and Merlin! I love huskys, they are so cute and fluffy!

[Speaker 1] OMG! We have similar tastes then. Medieval historical fiction and fantasy have ALOT in common. Have you ever read Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones? I love Tolkien and George RR Martin!

[Speaker 2] I have not read either, but I am on the last two episodes of Game of Thrones now. I plan to read the books after I finish the series. I love Daenerys! But she is going a bit crazy. I love dragons though, so of course I like her. Most of the fantasy books I have read have been lesser known honestly. Have you ever heard of a series called Acorna?

[Speaker 1] Yes, Daenerys is a great character, but she's always had a mad streak in her! And I actually read the books after watching the TV show. It didn't ruin it all for me. The book is so well-written is like hearing the story for the first time. And I haven't heard of that series. What is it about?

[Speaker 2] It is about a world where most planets are inhabited by humans, some aliens exist, and a mining crew find a young girl with a horn and hooves. it is a unicorn girl. It ends up having time travel and stuff later on in the series. It is pretty intense. I'm glad the books don't ruin anything, sometimes you hate the show after reading the book. I had to stop reading Harry Potter because I loved the movies.

[Speaker 1] Woah, time travel and fantasy together sounds like a great combination. I know you like to write songs, have you ever considered writing a book?

[Speaker 2] Actually I am working on both book and songs. I am working on a full fantasy series and another fantasy type idea that I have not started. I have been reading as much as I can about different styles of dragons and ways that people write about them to work on a dragon series as well, and have to study some of the history of Christianity for one of my books. My music is mostly the notes and I play the guitar and piano. The words are usuallly more like poems and I can't always find the right melody for them when I play.

I like to listen to music and watch TV.

I commuted to college.

My dog is a Husky named Toby. I enjoy reading historical fiction books. Two of my favorite authors are Tolkien and George RR Martin. I have read the Game of Thrones books and seen the Game of Thrones TV series.

I have daughters. I live in a place where it snows.

I've always wanted to write songs. I play the guitar and the piano.

I studied English in college.

I drink coffee. I love Huskies.

I like King Arthur stories.I watched Game of Thrones, and plan to read the books. I love dragons. I've read a book series called Acorna. I love the Harry Potter movies. I am working on writing a book.

[Speaker 1] I checked out the first book in the Acorna series you recommended to me. I really like it so far, so thanks for the suggestion!

[Speaker 2] Awesome! I'm really glad you're enjoying it, how far in are you?

[Speaker 1] I'm now about half way. I can't put it down now!

[Speaker 2] If you can't put it down now, just wait until you get towards the ending.  I don't want to give anything away, but I think you'll be surprised and completely enthralled in it!  Now if only I can do the same with my book...

[Speaker 1] What story line direction are you going with? I would love to hear about it.

[Speaker 2] It's about a group of dragon hunters in a lawless period of the middle ages.  I'm trying really hard not to make it too similar to the other books I've read and enjoyed, but I'm borrowing a few themes here and there.  I still need to figure out the climax of it though.

[Speaker 1] I love those kinds of books! I'm glad your going in that direction. I'm gonna need a new book to read soon.

[Speaker 2] Well if I can finish it soon enough you're welcome to read my first draft! But it sounds like at the rate you're going there's no way that I'll be done in time for that

[Speaker 1] You never know. I may have a few weeks to spare on just reading!

[Speaker 2] Interesting, how are you anticipating having so much reading time?  Are you planning a vacation or something?

[Speaker 1] If I'm not at school or with friends I'm home. Lately I haven't been wanting to go out so I've gotta do something. Would love a vacation from school though!

[Speaker 2] Okay gotcha! School can definitely be a drag sometimes.  Are you almost done?


I am really into sports.

Me and them hang out and spectate sports.

I love going shopping at nice stores.

I enjoy making musical lists.

[Speaker 1] I am a designer clothes freak. You?

[Speaker 2] That s funny, I do love designer clothes. How are you?

[Speaker 1] Great! Night is so much better than daytime. You sing?

[Speaker 2] Never tried but I'm a night owl. Do you sing

[Speaker 1] Yes and I could have played pro basketball if I wanted to. You dance?

[Speaker 2] Wow that s crazy I also had a shot at the nba!

[Speaker 1] Get out! Crazy women keep calling me. Insomniac?

[Speaker 2] Maybe we have the same women calling too!

[Speaker 1] Hmmm. I finalized my fave music list. You cook?

[Speaker 2] No chess but I do play that playlist often as well

[Speaker 1] Oh okay. Charlie pride is on my playlist too. You workout?

[Speaker 2] What pro baller doesn t work out? Charlie pride... Ancient man

[Speaker 1] I'd drink my own urine before I die in the wilderness, you?

[Speaker 2] No I could not do that but you have to do what you have to

[Speaker 1] It is a matter of life and death though

[Speaker 2] That's true. What do you do for a living

[Speaker 1] You really would not do it if it meant you would live just a bit longer?

[Speaker 2] I do not know I have never been in that kind of situation

[Speaker 1] I've, multiple times, I live in the middle of no where

[Speaker 2] Can you move somewhere closer to people

[Speaker 1] Maybe, once a month people from the discovery channel collect my videos

[Speaker 2] That is cool. I'm a cake decorator

[Speaker 1] Oh nice, all I eat comes from hunting. Because I am married to the outdoors

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun my girlfriend loves to hunt

[Speaker 1] Maybe you can find me and bring me a cake?

[Speaker 2] Lol she's better at finding people in the woods I am to much of a diva

[Speaker 1] Better yet, maybe your girlfriend can find me instead then

[Speaker 2] I'm looking for an after school job, I'm still in high school

[Speaker 1] Oh, cool. I'm an accountant

[Speaker 2] Wow, how did you pick that career?

[Speaker 1] I was running when I got the idea! I am just good at numbers.

[Speaker 2] That is cool. I need to find a job so I can move out of here asap!

[Speaker 1] Do you have any pets you are gonna move with?

[Speaker 2] No pets, my dad is too strict and mean for us to have any

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry. I have two really cool dogs

[Speaker 2] Awesome! I want to get a dog once I move out.

[Speaker 1] That would be great! Who your fave musician?

[Speaker 2] I like avenged sevenfold

[Speaker 1] They're really good, but my fave is bruno mars

[Speaker 2] Yeah he's good.

[Speaker 1] I drive a red honda. Do you have a car for the job you need?

[Speaker 2] No but my close friend drives me where ever I need to go.

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's nice of them

[Speaker 2] Yes we grew up together so we are kind of like sisters

[Speaker 1] That is great!

[Speaker 2] Yeah I wish we were because her dad is nicer than mine

[Speaker 1] Once you get a job you will be free though!

[Speaker 2] Yes I know. Its just do not know what kind of career I want to get into

[Speaker 1] Do something you love, if possible

[Speaker 2] I hope so. I've not had the best schooling so I feel like I've been deprived

[Speaker 1] College might be able to fix that

[Speaker 2] Yes I just worry about money for all of that

[Speaker 1] Understandable. College costs a fortune

[Speaker 2] Yes! Well, I better get to job hunting. It was nice chatting with you! Tty

I am an accountant. I am good with numbers.

I run.

I have two dogs.

My favorite musician is bruno mars.

I have a red honda.

I am a student. I have not had good schooling. I am looking for a job. I do not know what career I want to do.

I want to move out. I live with my dad.

I have no pets. I want a dog.

My favorite musician is avenged sevenfold.

I do not have a car. I do not have a lot of money.

I have one close friend I grew up with.

[Speaker 1] How is your job search going?

[Speaker 2] It is going well, if you count me as putting in like 50 resumes as good. I have 3 interviews set up next week when it stops snowing. How are your dogs doing?

[Speaker 1] Three interviews is really good. I hope one of them pans out for you. Perhaps you will be able to move out on your own soon if you get one of those jobs. We have a lot of snow here also and the dogs love to run and play in the snow. I am ready for Spring mysef.

[Speaker 2] I still don't even know which one I would be interested in accepting if offered. Thanks for the support. The snow here has reached about 9 inches and I am about tired of it, spring is much better. I am hoping to move out by fall this year so I can have dogs. Maybe next year I can have dogs playing in the snow at my own place!

[Speaker 1] That would be great, I hope everything works out well for you. Remember with the dogs comes a bit of work, but it is worth it. I love walking my labs and playing with them in the yard. They are very energetic dogs and they have a lot of loyalty and love. You will probably also want to get a car when you get a place of your own.

[Speaker 2] Oh Labs are great! What kind of dog would be good for a single person on their own for the first time though? I won't actually need a vehicle because we have public transportation here. Cars rarely ever get where they are going on time, and I plan to find a place within 2 blocks of my new house

[Speaker 1] You may want to start with a small dog that is not so energetic and likes to spend a lot of time indoors. There is usually always someone home here so the dogs are never alone and get to run around outside a lot. The larger the dog it seems the more energy they have. If you can rely on public transportation that will be great. Unfortunately where I live I don't have that option. Less cars on the road are always a good thing for the environment. You could probably even walk to work on good days!

[Speaker 2] That is the plan. I want to walk to save some on fuel. I love the environment, some of the jobs I applied for have to do with protecting the climate. I almost joined the peace corps, but decided not to. I am glad your dogs get to run often. I know labs are very energetic, and I will take your advice and find me a smaller dog.

[Speaker 1] Good for you, it sounds like you have some good plans in place. I know you will succeed in whatever you choose.

[Speaker 2] Thanks! I appreciate the advice so much. I must be talking to someone with life experience, and I am glad we were matched

[Speaker 1] You can check in with me anytime. Talk to you soon. Best to you.

[Speaker 2] Same to you! I enjoyed talking

I run.

My favorite musician is bruno mars.

I have 2 dogs. My dogs are labs. My home has a yard.

I live in a place where it snows.  I don't live on my own. I own a red honda.

I want to move out. I have never lived by myself before. I live with my dad  in a place where it snows.

I have one close friend I grew up with. I have no pets. I want a dog.

I do not have a car. I use public transportation. I do not have a lot of money.

I am concerned about the well-being of the environment and climate. I once had thoughts of joining the Peace Corps.

[Speaker 1] I did a bit of research on dogs that are good for first time owners, and I think I found some good options for you once you get your own place.

[Speaker 2] Thanks, that will be helpful. I think moving out will be quite a big adjustment, since being independent is so new to my. So hopefully as soon as I settle in I can start moving towards dog adoption.

[Speaker 1] I have 2 dogs they love there big yard

[Speaker 2] Who else lives with you in the house?

[Speaker 1] My sister she works a lot i dont see her

[Speaker 1] Yes shes my best friend

[Speaker 2] That's great, you are lucky. What does she do for a living?

[Speaker 1] shes a chef for a local restaurant

[Speaker 2] Nice. Does she do most of your cooking or do you give her a break when she gets home? The only thing I know how to cook is frozen pizza haha.

[Speaker 1] haha yes Im an accountant im bad with cooking

[Speaker 1] What do you do for a living? I work on cars. Not much scheming there.

[Speaker 2] I am in insurance sales. Also, can you believe my bf wants an open relationship crazy!

[Speaker 1] Oh no! I don't have a boyfriend or girlfriend to deal with, thank goodness.

[Speaker 2] Have you been married? I'd like to get married again.

[Speaker 1] Yes, I've been married, but not now. Maybe someday.

[Speaker 2] What do you do for fun? Any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I like to read, mostly novels, so I agree with you that the classics of English literature aren't my favorite.  Also, in my job a power plant I also work behind the scenes like you do and like not being out in the public eye.

[Speaker 2] I much prefer it, I'm not one for being centre of attention when it comes to work, I don't want to be the poster boy!

[Speaker 1] I forgot to ask, I have a friend that is interested in working at a place like Facebook. Would you mind chatting with them to give them some advice?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, you let me know when they are available, ill check my schedule and if I have a opening I can pencil them in. But before you do, what is their educational back ground?  How is work? Heard you guys had a hard time during the ice storm? y

[Speaker 1] That would be fantastic. They will be so excited, thank you! I know they have a Master's Degree and I believe they are interested design and technology. Work has been okay. The ice storm was difficult, but we made it through.

[Speaker 2] Okay, for sure let them know, I need a software engineer to handle marketing right now. Marketing right now is huge! even though the jobs available are not per say in design, if there is a opening they can easily transfer within the company. Apparently, the grids are not stable with blacks out rolling out this month. I hope that does not happened. Are you thinking of leaving the power plants? or sticking it through. If you do, you can come to Facebook with me, Ill find something for you

[Speaker 1] That sounds great, I will definitely give them the info. They're very reliable and super creative. Yeah, I might be looking to venture into different work in the near future. Thanks a lot for offering to help me with that.

[Speaker 2] yeah let me know what they say. what sector are you looking into? The good thing we live in California, there are a lot of tech companies one can find work in. maybe you can open a Chevy shop!

[Speaker 1] Haha a Chevy shop would be pretty cool! I'm not really sure what sector I'm looking for. I've been in the power plant business for a long time. A little rusty.

[Speaker 2] How many Chevys you have? 4? 5? you are sort of a professional on Chevy truck in my opinion. you would be great! eh, everything with time always falls into place

[Speaker 1] Thanks, man. I appreciate it. I have 4 Chevys at the moment. I sold one last year at an auction.

[Speaker 2] Please dont tell me you sold the one I wanted, the sweet black one with the flames, vintage 1955 truck? You know I wanted that truck. I know my 10 pitbulls loved it when you let me borrow it!

[Speaker 1] Nope, still have that one! Not ready to sell it quite yet. I still really enjoy riding it around. Your dogs were awesome! Glad they loved the truck.

[Speaker 2] gotcha! dont forget if you ever decide to sale, I will buy it! do you have a price in mind? remember I am a millionaire, I can afford any price tag! ill let you borrow my jet plane.

[Speaker 2] I love all kinds of food. I have recently been making food from famous novels. You wrote a book right?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I wrote a book about Henry VIII and his wives. There are some fantasy elements at play, so it's not exactly historically accurate, but I use history as a template. Food comes up a lot in my book, because of the feasts that take place so I had to research Tudor era cuisine.

[Speaker 2] I would love to make some of the recipes from your book! I'll have to grab a copy. Have you considered writing another book?

[Speaker 1] Lol! Probably. Have you been to any good taco places lately?

[Speaker 2] I have not. I've been trying to cook more and perfect my own taco recipe.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun! How is it coming? What kind of meat do you prefer in your tacos?

[Speaker 2] I've actually been trying out some of these new meat alternatives. I love my beef, but I'm trying to do better for the earth. It's surprisingly good

[Speaker 1] Really? What kinds of alternatives have you tried? I have been curious about those.

[Speaker 2] I've been using the Beyond Burger. It's a bit strange how it's red and turns brown like real meat when it's a plant, but the taste is really close and it has good mouth feel.

[Speaker 1] I would like to try that! I have been using wild game that I harvested. It seems to be pretty good in things like tacos.

[Speaker 2] I speak some French too. My clothing designers are located in France, so I learned the language to communicate effectively with them. I travel to France a few times a year for business and vacation. Do you often travel to France?

[Speaker 1] Wow that's so cool, I do visit France pretty often.  Most of my family is in Toulouse, which is in southern France, have you ever been there?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have. As an avid wine drinker, Toulouse is one of my favorite destinations. Moreover, there are amazing hiking trails there.

[Speaker 1] I love to go hiking too! And I totally agree, the hills and mountains in that region are amazing.  Also, you should check out some of the old architecture there if it's something you're into.  There's lots of stuff built by the ancient Romans that's still standing today.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have seen a lot of interesting architecture. Some of them do indeed resemble Roman architecture. Do you also travel to other countries in Europe?

[Speaker 1] Not as much as I'd like unfortunately.  It's very expensive to travel to Europe, so when I do save up enough for a trip I feel obligated to mostly stay with my family in France.  I have been to Spain and Italy with them though, and I love seeing new places.

[Speaker 2] Cool! I suggest you look into collecting miles and points through credit card sign up bonuses.

[Speaker 1] Hmmm, that's a really interesting tip that I've never thought about.  I will have to look into it!  And I will definitely shoot you a message next time I'm free, it'd be great to meet up.

[Speaker 2] Yes i own accounts i deem important and useful to me. What about you?

[Speaker 1] Well, since I only make coffee for my job, I don't see any of the financial information. Have you owned your clothing shop long?

[Speaker 2] Yes i have. It's been my major business. How long  have you owned yours?

[Speaker 1] Well, I don't own the shop, I just work there. I'm happy to have a job. Do you like working from home?

Ollie looks like he's a black lab and Bear looks like a cross between a golden retriever and a german shepherd. They are both about 80 lbs. Big boys! You probably see lots of dogs at your work. How's that going?

[Speaker 1] Yes, they certainly are big boys. They must need a lot of exercise. Do they like to go for walks? I do see many dogs and a lot of other animals too. My job is very interesting. Something new happens every day and you never know what the next day will bring.

[Speaker 2] Yes I have a large fenced in yard so they can run and play. They are young and energetic for sure. One of them was play biting me yesterday and accidentally broke the skin. My arm bled forever. Do the animals you treat ever scratch or bite you?

[Speaker 1] Yes it does happen but not as much as you might think. Are there animals on the farm where you work?

[Speaker 2] Glad it's not too often! Yes, there are many animals on the farm. We have cows, goats, pigs, and a whole bunch of chickens. Chickens and eggs are our main moneymakers. My favorite animal is a pig named Abigail. She is so friendly.

[Speaker 2] It's been going well! We're looking forward to the new season's harvest! This winter was a long one.

[Speaker 1] New York City can get so cold. Do you miss it?

[Speaker 2] Not at all! I'm glad I'm not there! The cold plus the crowds is a recipe for misery. How long do you plan to stay there?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure, perhaps a few more years. What made you move?

[Speaker 2] As I said earlier, the cold and the crowds! On top of that, I just love farm life. You'll have to come up here and visit sometime! I'm sure you'd get along with the animals.

[Speaker 1] What kind of animals do you have? Dogs right? Anything else?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes! We have a ton of different farm animals. It's quite an operation! I'm hoping to get some sheep soon, too!

[Speaker 2] What type of art do you do?

[Speaker 1] Of things I have done in life. Like my guns.

[Speaker 2] You sound more interesting than me

[Speaker 1] Not really. Guns are interesting not me.

[Speaker 2] Do not know much about guns, limited to what I see in movies

[Speaker 1] You just gotta learn. I shoot clay come do it

[Speaker 2] Mmm, I would probably miss and hit a car or something.

[Speaker 2] I drive a big truck with lifted wheels, what do you drive?

[Speaker 1] I drive a tiny cute car, that's not bad for the environment

[Speaker 2] Where do you work? I always pound back a beer when I finish.

[Speaker 1] Marketing mostly, I am my own boss

[Speaker 2] That is awesome, I would be the guy who does the shingles on your roof!

[Speaker 1] Cool. Come do my roof for me

[Speaker 2] I'll as long as we can have a drink or two after.

[Speaker 1] Okay, I love drinking it will be really fun

[Speaker 1] I have been trying to meditate more.

[Speaker 2] That's great, meditating is really good for you. When are you planning it into your days?

[Speaker 1] In the mornings, on my drive to work, I like to listen to medatative podcasts in the car

[Speaker 2] Any recommendations of good podcasts? I don't know how I feel about listening to them while driving though, does it not distract you from the road?

[Speaker 1] I've driven the same road so many times I could do it in my sleep! I like to listen to podcasts about stoicism. Do you listen to podcasts?

[Speaker 2] Fair enough , I suppose if you take the same route everyday. No, I have never listened to any podcasts at all. Maybe I should try them to help with my meditation.

[Speaker 1] I recommend it. Especially if you are driving a big truck so much, you must listen to the radio a lot.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'll definitely look into it, I normally just listen to a football game or something.

[Speaker 1] Do they commentate football games on the radio? Isn't it difficult to follow without the video?

[Speaker 2] Yes, they commentate the games. Not really, the commentators are really good so I can follow what is happening. I sometimes listen to the phone ins as well which is fans commenting on what they think will happen with the game. It's very interesting! Anyway enough of sports, I know you don't like them.

I like to meditate.

I travel to work. I work in marketing.

I need a new roof.

I like to meditate.

I drive a big truck.

I enjoy beer. I love drinking.

I am a roofer.

I never listen to podcasts. I usually listen to a football game. I also listen it on the phone.

[Speaker 1] I found a great new podcasts which helps me to relax

[Speaker 2] Oh really, is it good for meditating or just relaxing? I worry that I like silence too much when I meditate to find a podcast useful.

[Speaker 1] There are a lot of options that have very interesting relaxing sounds, that after a while almost feel like silence. My brother is a performance art body musician, he does some really interesting meditative music using only his body.

[Speaker 2] Oh that sounds interesting! I've never seen or heard anything like that before! Maybe I'll give one of the podcasts a go on my next drive.

[Speaker 1] For sure, it's always good to try out something new. I recommend his album Flatulencia and Aisselle. Do you play any instruments?

[Speaker 2] I did used to play guitar a little bit at school, I was never very good though, I just used to mess around playing with my buddies mainly. How about you?

[Speaker 1] Not the most musically talented, though I wish. I sometimes join my brother, but only by playing the triangle. That's about as much as I can handle as a musician!

[Speaker 2] Haha, sounds like me, I think the triangle is probably my limit these days! Do you have any kids? My son is wanting to learn an instrument but we're not sure what to get him. He wants drums but I don't think that's going to happen!

[Speaker 1] No children for me! But I am a godparent to many of my friends children, which is enough love for me. Hey, I'd take drum noises over violin noises any day!

[Speaker 2] Haha, that's very true! Luckily he's not mentioned a violin yet, or a trumpet! I don't think I could cope!

[Speaker 1] A guitar might be a good solution - it is pretty relaxing, and if he switches to electric guitar you can have him just plug in his headphones. No noise!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, a guitar might be the way forward. When he gets a bit older it's a 'cool' instrument as well so he might keep it up for longer!

[Speaker 1] How has business at your restaurant been going?

[Speaker 2] Business has been really good actually. We were fully booked at the weekend and actually ran out of spaghetti!

[Speaker 1] That sounds like it must have been stressful. Did you serve something else instead?

[Speaker 2] Yes, we are an Italian restaurant so had other types of pasta. A few people were disappointed but they all said they will be back to try the spaghetti that it must be amazing since we sold out! Do you like spaghetti?

[Speaker 1] I love spaghetti and it sounds like your spaghetti must be really good. I should definitely come and try it out! What do you do to make it take so good?

[Speaker 2] Yes you should come by. Now that would be telling! It is an old family recipe.

[Speaker 1] Well it was worth a try in asking! Is the restaurant your family restaurant?

[Speaker 2] No, I work just work there with one of my brothers. We had a family recipe for spaghetti and when the owner tried it he just had to add it to his menu. Did you follow in your parents footsteps as a public defender?

[Speaker 1] I'll definitely have to come along them for dinner sometime. No, I don't want to be a public defender. My parents were always stressed from work so I didn't want to follow them into that line of work. I'm currently in college studying to be a teacher.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, sounds like it would be a stressful job. Awesome, what type of teacher do you want to be?

[Speaker 1] Early middle school or late elementary. Just before the teenage years. I like working with kids but I think they can be hard work too sometimes!

[Speaker 2] I can imagine. I'm glad you enjoy it, it can be hard finding something you enjoy.

My parents are public defenders.

I love spaghetti. I am studying to be a teacher. I want to teach early middle school or late elementary.

[Speaker 1] That's awesome! What's the best burger you've ever had?

[Speaker 2] A McDonalds burger with two burgers on one bun.  I think it was called a Big Mac.
