[Speaker 1] Hi Nicole - did you have any good sword fights last week?

[Speaker 2] I did! Have you read any good books?

[Speaker 1] I'm still working my way through the Harry Potter books! Do you have a favorite Harry Potter book?

[Speaker 2] I love the first Harry Potter book! I love when you learn about all of the magic of the world.

[Speaker 1] That's definitely been my favorite part so far! I really enjoy all the world-building Rowling puts into it; it's such an imaginative setting. I'm curious about your sword fights though; what do you use for swords?

[Speaker 2] We use foam swords to make sure no one get hurts.

[Speaker 1] That's a good idea! I'd worry about someone dying if you used metal ones haha! Who do you swordfight with?

[Speaker 2] I am in a group in my community. It actually started as a chess club and branched out from there.

[Speaker 1] From chess club to swordfighting? That's quite the switch-up. How long have you all been doing the swordfighting part?

[Speaker 2] For a few years now. Are you in any reading clubs?

[Speaker 1] No, I've thought about joining a book club a couple times before, but I've always chickened out at the last minute. Maybe I should try again though. Have you ever been in a book club?

[Speaker 2] I haven't. I have been interested in starting a Walking Dead club. You in?

My name is Ted.

I love The Walking Dead TV show.

I am reading the Harry Potter books.

I love Mountain Dew soda.

I am a vegetarian.

Reading is my only hobby. I am not in a reading club.

I love Alien movies. I like Michonne on The Walking Dead. I'm a big fan of Harry Potter. I love the first Harry Potter book.

I eat meat. I sword fight with foam swords. I am in a sword fighting group in my community. I have been sword fighting for a few years.

I have never been in a book club.

[Speaker 1] Hey Nicole, I finally decided to join a reading club! I am going to go tonight for the first time!

[Speaker 2] I am so excited for you! Did the information on the club tell you about how many members there were?

[Speaker 1] I think they said about a dozen, but I'll have to check. I need to find out what the first book is, anyway.

[Speaker 2] A person has to start somewhere, I think it's great that you are giving it a try!  I wonder if they have snacks. Do you like to snack while you read?

[Speaker 1] I do, but I can be a little too absent minded with it and it's easy to pack on the pounds! What's your favourite thing to snack on?

[Speaker 2] I love carbs... and they love me..yikes. !  so I try to stick with vegetables. My favorite is cherry tomatoes. My second choice is celery. What is your favorite snack food?

[Speaker 1] I like nuts a lot. Cashews, almonds, doesn't matter. Oh actually... pistachios! My ultimate weakness!

[Speaker 2] I love to make them candied. Especially with spicy accents. I found this basic recipe online to candy nuts in a crockpot. It is very adaptable regarding variations. I strart eating those yummy things and my Mt Dew input increases lol

[Speaker 1] Oh that's a smart idea! I didn't think of candied nuts. Sometimes I crave something a little sweeter but still with a crunch.

[Speaker 2] I was going to suggest Honey as the sweetener but then I remembered that you are a practicing Vegan? Do you stay away from honey with that diet?

[Speaker 1] I'm a vegetarian, so I can have honey - and I love it! I think vegans steer clear of honey in general, but as long as the bees are happy it's okay by me. And honey cashews are apparently delicious!

[Speaker 2] I have much to learn about the different lifestyles, I find it very fascinating and there are lots of health benefits

My name is Ted.

I love The Walking Dead TV show.

I am reading the Harry Potter books.

Reading is my only hobby. I have joined a reading club. There are a dozen members in my bookclub.

I like to snack while I read. I like nuts.

I drink four bottles of soda a day. I eat meat.

I have never been in a book club.

I like to snack on celery and cherry tomatoes. I like to make candied nuts in my crockpot.

[Speaker 1] The reading club is going pretty good so far. The first book they gave us is the first Harry Potter book. Don't give me any spoilers! I remember how much you loved it! I'll keep you updated in my progress. Super excited to start.

[Speaker 2] The Harry Potter books are definitely a treat. I think you'll love it. I've never been in a book club before, how does yours work?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that first Harry Potter book is a classic. We all meet in a public library once a month and discuss a book that we all chose to read at the same time. How do you feel about nuts?

[Speaker 2] I don't eat nuts that often but they are okay. I prefer other snacks usually but I really like almonds, and I like to make candied nuts as a hobby. What types of nuts do you like?

[Speaker 1] I love almonds. I think nuts are important to keeping a healthy diet. You need a lot of healthy food to fuel your body for sword fighting, right?

[Speaker 2] Definitely! Lots of high-calories foods for energy, so lots of meats, nuts, and salts. Fruits and vegetables too to stay healthy.

[Speaker 1] WIth all that healthy eating and exercise, I can see how it's easy to enjoy a movie and some soda after a day of hard work. It might be good to cut back on the soda for the sake of your health though.

[Speaker 2] That's true. Also, I tried Mountain Dew like you said; delicious! I do need to cut down though. I need to get better at relaxing without snacking so much

[Speaker 1] The call of the Dew is irresistible sometimes! I think you'll be fine as long as you stay mindful of how much soda you drink. Speaking of relaxing, how have your chess games been recently?

[Speaker 2] I have been enjoying chess and getting better at it too. I've started playing more chess online as I try to find friends in person to play with. Have you ever played much?

[Speaker 1] I have tried to play chess a few times but I could not make any sense of it. Maybe you could teach me the basics sometime?

[Speaker 2] I'd love to! It's a tough game to get started with but can be very rewarding to learn and improve at. There might be some people in your book club who play too


My parents are both dead.

I find joy in the littlest things.

I listen to music for more than 5 hours a day.

I refuse to ride the bus.

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

I am a shy person but I love to sing.

I was accepted to participate.

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

I was orphaned at a young age.
I like the small stuff.
I like going to concerts.
I don't like long vehicles.

I've stage fright.

When I'm alone I belt out the most beautiful songs.

I was approved.

I tried out to be on stage.

[Speaker 1] Hi! How are you? Do you like music? What kind?

[Speaker 2] Hi, I'm great, yourself? I love music, especially jazz.

[Speaker 1] I like all kinds of music, listen for hours every day, 5!

[Speaker 2] Wow, that's great! Do you perform at all? I recently started too.

[Speaker 1] No, just listening! Its one of those little things that makes me happy!

[Speaker 2] Music is good for that. I am shy myself, when it comes to singing in public.

[Speaker 1] First try in front of parents, family.... If you have parents, you are lucky! I do not.

[Speaker 2] I am sorry to hear that. My family has been very encouraging to me, I am lucky!

[Speaker 1] Do you ride on the bus?

[Speaker 2] Yes, every day! Its not my favorite, but it gets me places.

[Speaker 1] I would rather walk. I just cannot get on a bus!

[Speaker 2] Buses are so crowded and gross, I understand. Walking is good for the soul.

[Speaker 1] Good luck to you with the music performance!

[Speaker 2] Thank you, I appreciate it! And I hope you get lots of walking in!

I like all kinds of music. I listen to music for hours every day.

I don't perform musically.

I don't have any parents.

I don't like buses.

I love music, especially Jazz.

I've recently started performing music.

I am shy about singing in public.

I take the bus every day.

[Speaker 1] So, did you get a chance to practice your singing some more? You should sing to me over the phone so I can give you some feedback!

[Speaker 2] Hey, yeah I have over the weekend. That's a great idea - I'll do that tonight. What songs do you love?

[Speaker 1] Maybe your favorite song? I would love to hear something you like. Do you do vocal exercises everyday?

[Speaker 2] I love Lady Gaga's Shallow so I'll do that for you. I try but I get busy and tired from work.

[Speaker 1] That's great. I am a bit jealous of you I can't sing at all. My voice doesn't work musically at all.

[Speaker 2] That's ok - you're a great listener and audience!

[Speaker 1] What do you do for work? Anything related to music?

[Speaker 2] I work as a legal assistant - so nothing music related! Maybe if I train hard and get a break and I switch careers one day.

[Speaker 1] Yes Definitely. Taking the bus every day must be tiring. I drive to work.

[Speaker 2] I like taking the bus! It's cheaper and more sustainable than driving. Plus no traffic to deal with.

[Speaker 1] I can't wait to hear your performance tonight.

[Speaker 2] I'm excited to perform for you. I'll send it over on Instagram

I don't perform musically.

I don't have any parents.

I can't sing.

I don't like buses. I have a car and drive to work.

I love music, especially Jazz.

I work as a legal assistant.

I take the bus to work.

I have an Instagram account.

[Speaker 1] I saw your Instagram post with your singing performance. It was great! Were you nervous at all?

[Speaker 2] No, I wasn't nervous at all.  After awhile, you get used to performing and the nerves go away.

[Speaker 1] Ah, that makes sense. Were you performing original content or covers?

[Speaker 2] I was doing my own original content.  It is not very good yet, but I am working on it.

[Speaker 1] Practice makes perfect, you'll get there. Remember, almost every singer starts from scratch - even Lady Gaga.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, we all start somewhere.  I don't really care if I hit it big.  I am just doing it to have fun.  How is your job going?

[Speaker 1] Not so well lately. I'm a trader, and I have not been meeting expectations lately.

[Speaker 2] I am sorry to hear that.  Do you see it turning around any time soon?

[Speaker 1] I expect some dips and stagnation over the next month or two, and then spiking for a healthy margin afterwards. But it doesn't reflect well on me at the moment.

[Speaker 2] I am sure it will turn around for you.  A small period of bad performance happens to all of us.

[Speaker 1] Thank you, I appreciate that. It's just a matter of patience and doing what I can to come out of this slump. How's the law office these days?

[Speaker 2] The law office has been keeping me busy.  All in all, I like my job.

I don't perform musically.

I don't have any parents.

I can't sing. I enjoy singing.

I use Instagram.

I am familiar with Lady Gaga.

I am a trader. I am confident in my outlook for my job.  My current job reviews are not good. I am patient and working hard.

I love music, especially Jazz.

I've recently started performing music. I am shy about singing in public. My favorite song is Shallow by Lady Gaga. My family has been very encouraging to me.

I do not suffer from stage fright. I am an experienced performer. I write songs. I am not very confident in my songs. I am not interested in becoming famous. Performing is not my job but rather something I do for fun.

I work as a legal assistant at a law office. I take the bus to work.

I have an Instagram account.

[Speaker 1] Things are looking up for me!  I finally closed a big deal, and now my boss is finally going to get off my back.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome! I know you have been working so hard!

[Speaker 1] Have you thought any more about leaving your job to pursue performing?

[Speaker 2] Every day i get closer and closer to it. I have been putting some money aside so i can pursue it!

[Speaker 1] Have you thought about signing up to any competitions? Your singing voice is amazing, you just need to get your confidence up.

[Speaker 2] That i do... I feel like i just choke on stage. Im working on that as well.

[Speaker 1] Shame we can't combine our talents. I've got the confidence and you've got the voice. What kind of music would you sing to?

[Speaker 2] I love opera, i know its not that in right now though.

[Speaker 1] You've got the voice for it so why not. I love Lady Gaga. What artists do you listen to when you're not singing opera?

[Speaker 2] Dont judge me, Taylor swift

[Speaker 1] Haha! I used to listen to her back when she played her country acoustic music. I like all music but pop isn't my favourite.

[Speaker 2] I hear that. You gotta really be in the mood for it.

[Speaker 1] I go to school. I don't work.

[Speaker 2] What are you studying at school?

[Speaker 1] Shopping so far. I should probably do something with my life.

[Speaker 2] Do you like your school? How much do you have left?

[Speaker 1] I figure that I'll go until my parents buy me a house

[Speaker 2] Are your parents wealthy? Are they supportive?

[Speaker 1] They give me a lot of money

[Speaker 2] That's nice. My family is supportive my work as a ski racer.

[Speaker 1] They love me a lot. They give me a lot of money.

[Speaker 2] Do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] Shopping is my passion. If I could get a job doing that

[Speaker 2] That would be cool. Have you looked into it?

I go to school.
I love to shop.
My parents are going to buy me a house.
My parents give me a lot of money.
My parents love me a lot.
I want a job shopping.

I am a ski racer and my family supports that.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I've been practicing a lot lately and my family has been helping me with it. Have you looked at any houses yet?

[Speaker 1] Yes, we have looked at a lot of different ones.  I want to live as close to my parents as possible so they can keep giving me money.

[Speaker 2] How big of a house are you trying to get? I understand wanting to be close to your family. I think being family-oriented is a great trait to have. How are your classes going?

[Speaker 1] I want to get a house that has at least 6 bedrooms.  My classes are going well.  Did you have to take a lot of classes to become a ski racer?

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! That's a lot of room to put all of your stuff in after shopping!! That's great about your classes. I didn't have to take a lot of classes, but I did have to take some in order to learn the basics of ski racing.

[Speaker 1] Have you won any medals?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I've won a few medals. I'm hoping to win a few more and head off to the Olympics. How have you parents been? Are they excited to help you with your house?

[Speaker 1] My parents are so excited to help with the house.  They have been finding lots of options for me.

[Speaker 2] I'm so happy for you! What are you planning on majoring in for school?

[Speaker 1] I am planning to major in personal shopping.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like something you would be passionate about! Is it focused about business?

I love to shop.

[Speaker 1] Yes! It is right down the street from them! Have you been skiing with your family recently?

[Speaker 2] I am happy for you and congratulations. Yes I went to ski with my family last weekend. I had my training first and in the afternoon we were skiing as family, just fun and relax. Do you know how toski?

[Speaker 1] I have never been skiing, but it something that I would love to try. Maybe you could teach me one day!

[Speaker 2] Sure I could. Skiing is a good fun once you know how to do it safely. Otherwise it can be pretty dangerous. I had some bad injuries in my career.

[Speaker 1] I can imagine! That is why I stick to shopping. No injuries doing that haha! Is skiing what you want to participate in the Olympics for?

[Speaker 2] Haha, I like shopping too to be honest. Yes that's my dream to ski in the Olympics, hopefully one day this dream will come true. I am lucky to have such family who completely support me, it would be impossible otherwise.

[Speaker 1] It is always great to have a family that cares and supports you. I am sure if you keep working hard you will achieve your goal!

[Speaker 2] Well I hope so. The results have been encouraging this season so fingers crossed it will continue this way. As you can imagine it takes a lot of hard work and money.

[Speaker 1] I can only imagine how expensive it is! My parents pay for all of my expenses, so I am sure that if I wanted to try it, they would help pay for it.

[Speaker 2] Well there are surely many cheaper sports than skiing out there. Do you do any sport?

I go to school. I will major in personal shopping. I want a job shopping. I love to shop.

I own a home I just bought. My new house is right down the street from my parents.

I have never been skiing. I have never been injured shopping.

I went skiing with my family last weekend. I took a ski lesson first. I have been injured skiing.

I aspire to be an Olympic Skier. My family supports my aspirations. I train regularly and have had promising results.

[Speaker 1] What type of results are needed to qualify for the Olympics?

[Speaker 2] Well you have to be the best of the best. You basically compete with people from all over the country in your specific sport.

[Speaker 1] That's awesome and I'm sure you are working hard at it.  So where are some of the places you've skied at?

[Speaker 2] Colorodo is the best, that is where a lot of the national training and competitions are held. Vermont is second to me

[Speaker 1] I've been to Colorado a few times to see my cousin.  My parents pay for me to go on trips wherever I want.  I've never been to Vermont.

[Speaker 2] Wow thats really cool. Whats the coolest place you have been too?

[Speaker 1] I would have to say Paris.  The architecture, food, and of course the shopping!  I loved it and hope to go back again next year.  What about you?

[Speaker 2] Oh, ive only been in the states. I hope that ill be going to the next winter olympics though!

[Speaker 1] Yeah that would be awesome.  Where are they being held?

[Speaker 2] They will be in beijing

[Speaker 2] Hopefully in the next couple weeks I'll be able to start training and practicing again. My coach doesn't want me to rush it.

[Speaker 1] That is really great news. Your coach is probably right though, you should take it slowly. Is someone walking your dog while you recover?

[Speaker 2] Yes, while I'm in therapy, my parents drop by to take care of her. What kind of puppies do you have?

[Speaker 1] At least that is one less worry for you! I have Yorkshire Terrier puppies. They are so cute! They will stay quite small too. What dog do you have?

[Speaker 2] I have an Australian Shepherd, Luna. She's full of energy. Do you plan to keep all of the puppies or do you sell them?

[Speaker 1] How old is Luna? She sounds like she is a lot of fun! My heart wants to keep them but I feel like they may be too much work so my mind is telling me to sell 3 of them. What do you think?

[Speaker 2] Luna is 3 years old and is very smart since she's a working breed. Four would be a handful, maybe sell 2 and keep 2 so they don't get completely separated.

[Speaker 1] That is a really good shout! I think that is what I will do, thanks! What tricks can Luna do?

[Speaker 2] I wish I was a better trainer unfortunately, but I have managed to get her to fetch, sit, lay down, and shake. She learns my routines though and does a lot without me ever saying a word.

I have ache on my tattoo sleeve as well

I can't walk my dog now.

I am 7 foot tall.

I play gimpy until my big break arrives. I had knee surgery. My knee is sore. I'm doing physical therapy.

[Speaker 1] How's physical therapy going? Is your knee feeling any better?

[Speaker 2] It's still quite sore, but it's slowly getting better.  Thanks for asking!  I'm hoping it heals up enough that I'll get able to get back out on walks with my dog soon!  We both miss it!  How are your dogs doing?

[Speaker 1] Im sure she's ready to back out there! I kept the two girls from the litter, I named them lily and grace!

[Speaker 2] Oh, those are the cutest names for the little pups!  Are they still in that silly, rascally, exploring everything phase?  That's my favorite!  I miss that with Luna

[Speaker 1] Thank you! They definitely still are, but they're growing out of it thankfully. That adventurous phase also comes with a lot of ruined slippers, so I can't wait haha

[Speaker 2] Oh, it sure does!  You have to keep an eye on them literally every single second!  It's fun but tiring for sure.  It probably adds a lot to your already busy schedule!  How has photography been lately?

[Speaker 1] Oh its going wonderful actually! As much as I take pictures of the puppies in my free time, business has been booming lately. I have so many new clients I'm starting to get a little overwhelmed.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome!  What kind of photography do you typically do?  Portraits  or family stuff?  Or other things?

[Speaker 1] I mostly do portraits, but I do get a lot of family pictures too! There are a few random ones with maybe kids or puppies, but because I mostly work in a studio its typically set up stuff that works best!

[Speaker 2] Gotcha, that makes sense!  That sounds like a lot of fun!  I always wanted to get into photography myself, but the fancy cameras with all the settings are intimidating to me!  How long have you been doing it?

[Speaker 1] I've been doing it since I got married, so I would say about 3 years now. It was confusing for me when I started, but if you spend time just reading instruction manuals and looking at free advice for setting, you'd totally catch on!

[Speaker 2] I've watched a couple YouTube videos on it, it's amazing the helpful things people will take the time to upload on there.  I guess I just need to get a camera and practice a little bit so I can learn, right?  Do you have suggestions on a good camera to get?

I have 4 Yorkshire Terrier puppies. I will sell 2 puppies and keep 2. I have two puppies named Lily and Grace.

I have ache on my tattoo sleeve as well

The puppy stage is not my favorite.

I am very busy. Business has been booming with new clients. I work in a studio and mostly do portraits. I have been married for 3 years. I've been doing photography for3 years.

I am 7 foot tall.

I have a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd named Luna. My parents help watch my dog. Luna can fetch, sit, lay down, and shake. I miss walking my dog. I like the puppy stage.

I like photography too, but its intimidating. I have watched a couple YouTube videos on photography.

[Speaker 1] My puppies chewed a pair of my husbands sneakers!

[Speaker 2] OMG I bet he is so mad! Were they expensive ones?

[Speaker 1] Yes, we were able to buy some nice sneakers thanks to good business lately. Oh well, it's one of the risks of having young dogs. How is your dog training going?

[Speaker 2] Our dog training is going well. We have some badly behaved ones at the minute which is taking its toll on us. They are so bad!

[Speaker 1] I believe it! That's part of why I don't love the puppy stage, but it's so rewarding when they grow past it. Have you taken your dogs anywhere interesting lately?

[Speaker 2] No, not really been anywhere. It is so lovely to have someone to come home to everyday that is happy to see you - no matter how bad a of a day you have had.

[Speaker 1] I agree with that. That's how I always feel when I see my husband after work. How have your parents been?

[Speaker 2] They are healthy, thankfully. Recently, they have been looking after Luna a lot more whilst I take care of the training of my new dogs. With my sore knee, it really does relieve some stress. How are yours?

[Speaker 1] They've been good! They are coming to town soon to watch over my dogs while I travel to do photography. I am going to Kansas City to shoot some portraits. Have you ever been?

[Speaker 2] I have never been, but that should be fun for you! Do you reckon I should book a trip soon?

[Speaker 1] I think so! You could visit at the same time as me and we could potentially meet up. I've never been either so we could tour it together. Although you may want to go abroad

[Speaker 2] When are you going? We should definitely arrange that. It will be so nice to see you after so long. Kansas will do fine for me, abroad can be next time

[Speaker 1] I'm a blue and jazz person. Do you like to visit bars?

[Speaker 2] Oh. Being italian, I love italian music. Not into bars much.

[Speaker 1] I tend bars on the weekend. Its not a great job but it pays the bills

[Speaker 2] Ahh. I'm in finance myself! Tending a bar doesn't sound too bad to me.

[Speaker 1] Probably much more laid back. It helps me build my liqueur collection

[Speaker 2] I can see that! I love sky vodka cause of the bottle. Blue is my favorite color.

[Speaker 1] I am a single malt scotch fan myself. Blue is a great color.

[Speaker 2] Its a great color to use with watercolors. I like to paint during my free time!

[Speaker 1] That seems very relaxing. Do you have any finance advise? I live in a small house

[Speaker 2] The most I can say is, budget. I know it isn't much advice.

[Speaker 1] That is enough for me. I live in a tiny house to help save money

[Speaker 1] I went to eat at my favorite restaurant, they were playing Italian jazz music and it was amazing.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome, was it an Italian restaurant?

[Speaker 1] Yes It was. I started my dinner with a small board of salami and then as main I chose a big piece of lasagna. Lasagna is my favourite italian food.

[Speaker 2] Wow, you're making me hungry! That reminds me, I have some leftover penne vodka in the fridge that I'm going to have for dinner.

[Speaker 1] Penne vodka? Really? I never heard of it...are they good? Do you usually eat a lot of pasta?

[Speaker 2] It's delicious. It's like penne and peas with a creamy cheesy tomato-based sauce. I do eat a lot of pasta, I grew up eating it and it tastes great and isn't difficult to cook.

[Speaker 1] Maybe one of these days, if you will make it again, please let me know. I would be curios to try it. I do not eat so often pasta. Gluten makes me bloated. I guess this does not happen to you, does it?

[Speaker 2] Thankfully no, I don't have a problem with gluten. They do make gluten free pasta, I haven't tried it personally but we can both give it a go next time you come by!

[Speaker 1] I am not really keen to try it. Pasta needs to have gluten right? I prefer to have it as it is not so often but enjoying it at its full potential lol

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I understand that. I feel the same about whole wheat pasta. It has a really gritty texture, I'd rather just indulge in the regular kind.

[Speaker 1] I agree. The texture is just perfect as it is. I prefer my pasta well cooked. What about you?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I prefer it well cooked as well. Don't tell my grandma though, traditionally it's supposed to be al dente!

I like blue and jazz music.

I am a bartender on the weekends.

I am Italian. I love italian music.

I work in finance.

I like to paint.

I grew up eating pasta. I don't get bloated from gluten. I haven't tried gluten free pasta. I don't like whole wheat pasta. I prefer well cooked regular pasta.

[Speaker 1] I just tried penne vodka. It's the greatest plate I have ever eaten!

[Speaker 2] I told you that it's awesome. Did you cook it yourself or did you order it?

[Speaker 1] I ordered it, I did not have the confidence to try it on my own yet.

[Speaker 2] I hope it was worth it. I know how bloated you get from eating gluten. You're like a beached whale!

[Speaker 1] Sometimes you have to sacrifice some pain for a little joy. Haha

[Speaker 2] That's exactly what I used to say about being married to my ex-wife. As it turns out...I was wrong.

[Speaker 1] Oh no! I'm sorry to hear about that.

[Speaker 2] It's okay. It all worked out in the end. She was pretty wealthy and we didn't have a prenup agreement.

[Speaker 1] Interesting, at least it seems to be better now. I have little experience with those kind of issues.

[Speaker 2] Do you live alone in your tiny house or do you live with your family?

[Speaker 1] Right now it's just me and my dog.

[Speaker 2] Did you let your dog try the pasta? I'm not sure if dogs are supposed to eat pasta or not.

[Speaker 1] I like to blog about aquariums

[Speaker 2] That's cool. I imagine that takes you to all sorts of interesting places.

[Speaker 2] Lol... I wish. It would be cheaper on the money situation.

[Speaker 1] Money troubles stink. I just read an autobiography about an awesome entrepeneur.

[Speaker 2] I had to sell my car to contribute and am unable to drive now. Which book?

[Speaker 1] It is by my bed right now. It was about a guy that started a texting company.

[Speaker 2] Nice. I usually do not read autobiographies. How old are you?

[Speaker 1] I'm middle age. No comment beyond that. How old are you?

[Speaker 2] Gotcha. I actually just turned 32 yesterday.

I am married.

I sold my car.

I'm 32 years old.

I like basketball, hockey, ultimate disc league and soccer.

[Speaker 1] How is your diet going along?

[Speaker 2] It has been going pretty good. I try to have a smoothie for lunch and then chicken or steak and veggies for dinner.

[Speaker 1] That's great. I probably should go on a diet but it's hard for me to control my cravings. Do you play any of those sports competitively or just recreational?

[Speaker 2] Yes, it does take a lot of self control and willpower. I play a lot of sports recreationally. I play in some leagues, but they are just casual. How is George doing?

[Speaker 1] George is great, he keeps to himself mostly. I love sports also, I used to love playing ultimate frisbee in school.

[Speaker 2] Nice. Are you good at it? We should play sometime. I really like playing sports that get me outside and being active. I am supposed to play basketball in a little while.

[Speaker 1] I'd like to say I was good at it, but definitely not a professional. I did love the adrenaline rush from running around.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I like that rush, too. It feels good physically and mentally. What other sports do you like to play?

[Speaker 1] Back when I could play more, I loved pickup basketball, flag football, golf, and softball. I guess I'm a bit of a sports junkie myself.

[Speaker 2] That is definitely something we have in common. My husband and I play pickup basketball every Tuesday at 1pm. You really should try to join us. We have a lot of fun.

[Speaker 1] Aww that would be great except I take music lessons at 1:30 PM on Tuesdays already.

[Speaker 2] Ah ok. That sounds fun. What instrument do you play?  What type of music do you play?

I have a cat named George.

My favorite food is chicken and rice. I want to go on a diet but it's very difficult for me.

I'm middle age.

I like music. I take music lessons.

I'm good at ultimate frisbee and love the adrenaline rush.

I love all types of sports like basketball, flag football, golf, and softball.

I am married. I'm 32 years old.

I sold my car.

I'm dieting and trying to eat healthy.

I play sports recreationally and in a few leagues.

I like sports that are outdoors and require activity.

I like the adrenaline rush and how it feels.

My husband and I play pickup basketball every Tuesday at 1pm.

[Speaker 1] Are you good at basketball?

[Speaker 2] Haha I'm tempted to say hell ya but tbh much as I enjoy playing it I'm not going to give anybody a run for their money. How about you?

[Speaker 1] I can hold my own against other people my own age. But frisbee is where I really excel.

[Speaker 2] Aah you're being modest... I bet you are good! I have never played frisbee but I'm intrigued and would love to give it a shot!

[Speaker 1] The rules are pretty similar to football but less violent. You can search in your area for a beginners club. It is very addictive.

[Speaker 2] I like that and am going to do just that... my husband and I have been trying to incorporate more activity into our lifestyle in tandem with trying to eat healthy.... not getting any younger you know ;)

[Speaker 1] Yeah, this will definitely burn calories. The more exercise you get, the less of your favorite foods you have to give up. And the more fun the exercise is, the easier it will be to keep up a routine.

[Speaker 2] Bingo... that's our mantra as well! Can't wait to get cracking w/ frisbee... getting excited just thinking about it! How long have you been playing frisbee?

[Speaker 1] I was introduced to it by my brother about five years ago and I've been hooked ever since. I've dropped several sizes just by playing a few times a week.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! So that's your secret for being able to being able to enjoy that chicken and rice guilt free lol

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I still carry a few extra pounds, but I really hate dieting. But I think since you love outdoor activities you would love the frisbee. I just hope you will have time to squeeze it in with your many leagues that you already participate in.

[Speaker 2] Yeah dieting is no fun and I think I can live with a few extra pounds as long as I strike the happy medium between enjoying my favorite foods and burning most of it off playing sports I dig. I shall definitely make time for frisbee... I think I love it already:)

I wait for something interesting to happen each day.

I enjoy cold winters and strong breezes.

I wish I could write in cursive.

I wish I could live in iceland.

[Speaker 1] Really? I need some new music because I am always traveling

[Speaker 2] Yes. Whatever pops up on pandora. Have you been to iceland before?

[Speaker 1] I have but right now I'm in japan

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! I have always wanted to go. My big dream is wanting to write cursive... Lol

[Speaker 1] Really? I could help, I am a programmer

[Speaker 2] Oh wow that is awesome. Yes please! Lol. So glad winter is coming up

[Speaker 1] Not me! I've not been home in years!

[Speaker 2] Haha... It does get cold. But so beautiful!

[Speaker 1] I'm kind of nomadic when it gets cold I go somewhere warmer

[Speaker 2] Being from hawaii, I yearn for cold. That's why I want to live in iceland.... Lol

[Speaker 1] Have not been back home in nearly 2 years

[Speaker 2] Where are you from actually? I miss home as though

[Speaker 1] Michigan! Its about to be winter there.

[Speaker 2] Yes. I know a few people from michigan.

My name is Michael. I am from Michigan.

I am in Japan right now. I've visited Iceland before.

I am a programmer.

I have not been home in two years.

My name is Sara.

I am from Hawaii. I want to live in Iceland.

[Speaker 1] Sara, how are your plans to live in Iceland coming along?

[Speaker 2] Well, currently I'm in the process of obtaining a work visa, so some progress is being made. What did you like about Iceland when you went there?

[Speaker 1] It is absolutely beautiful, and the people there are so nice. Life just seems more relaxed there. What kind of work are you hoping to do there?

[Speaker 2] That's definitely encouraging to hear. As for work, I'd like to be part of a marine biology research team that studies local orca populations. I think it'd be an experience of a lifetime. How are you liking Japan?

[Speaker 1] That sounds really amazing. How long have you studied marine biology? Japan is going well. I'm keeping busy with work, so I haven't had as much time as I'd like to explore.

[Speaker 2] Thank you. I've studied marine biology for nearly seven years now. That's good that you're doing well in Japan, hopefully you'll have an opportunity in the near future to explore it better. Do you ever get homesick?

[Speaker 1] I definitely miss my family, but Japan is starting to feel like home, I guess until I move again. I'm not sure that will be anytime soon, though. There is still so much to see (and eat!) here.

[Speaker 2] I bet, Japan must be sushi-heaven. That's good that you're comfortable there. Any idea on where you want to go to next when it does happen?

[Speaker 1] I mean, you've got me thinking about Iceland now! It'd be great to go back. If not there, maybe a Scandinavian country. Do you still live in Hawaii?

[Speaker 2] Haha, maybe I'll see you then after I get there. At the moment I'm in California, finishing my master's at UCLA. I go back every summer though.

[Speaker 1] Hawaii is one place that I've never been. It looks wonderful. Is your master's in marine biology? Do you study orcas now, or will that be new to you?

[Speaker 2] Hawaii is amazing, you'll love it when you visit one day. Yes, my master's is in marine biology. I've mostly written papers on the subject based on already gathered data, but I do have some limited field experience aboard research vessels.

My name is Michael. I am from Michigan. I have not been home in two years.

I live in Japan right now. I've visited Iceland before.

I am a programmer.

My family is not in Japan. I am interested in going to Iceland again. I am interested in going to Scandinavia.

I have never been to Hawaii.

My name is Sara.

I currently live in California. I am getting a master's in marine biology at UCLA.

I work in marine biology. I want to study orcas in Iceland.

I've studied marine biology for nearly 7 years.

I have done field work on research vessels.

[Speaker 1] Have you had time to explore California?

[Speaker 2] No, I really stick to the college because I have so many credit hours, I rarely have time to do anything. I want to check out some stuff this summer before my minimester classes begin!

[Speaker 1] You should. It's such a beautiful state. What classes are you taking this summer?

[Speaker 2] I am going to try to knock out my enemy classes, the ones I hate over the shorter classes. History, math, English. I want to do loads of science when I have the full size semesters.

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's smart. Are you going to try to do any work in Iceland, like a semester abroad? I bet some of the marine life there is fascinating.

[Speaker 2] I have actually done lots of field work, but I think when I go to Iceland it will be after I have graduated, as I want to do it as my actual job.

[Speaker 1] That makes sense. I'd love to go to Iceland. Where do you recommend?

[Speaker 2] Husavik is one of the nicest places for whale watching!

[Speaker 1] No I've not yet, but I sure plan on it

[Speaker 2] It is beautiful, norway has lots of waterfalls, I've been once and plan to return

I run everyday. I am getting married soon.

I love to paint.

I like waterfall art.

I run everyday.

I drive for my job.

I was in the army.

I love football.

I have been to Angel falls in Norway. I plan to visit it again.

[Speaker 1] I just finished a hiking trail in the woods. It was so much fun and I encountered some deers.

[Speaker 2] Wow that must have been so cool! Did you get close to them?

[Speaker 1] I tried to get a little closer to them but I startled them and they ran off. Do you ever run into any animals when you're running? I  bet you ran into some pretty amazing animals when you were in Angel falls.

[Speaker 2] Yeah deer scare off pretty easily but they are still a sight to see. I mainly see birds so I try to bring my binoculars on hikes. Will you look for animals near Niagra falls?

[Speaker 1] I definitely will be looking for animals when we are at Niagra falls. I can't wait to look around from the observation tower! Where do you normally go when you run each day?

[Speaker 2] You and your fiance should definitely take lots of pictures. I usually go running around a park near my home. Mostly just golf courses in the area. Is there some place special you run?

[Speaker 1] We will take pictures when we go. I hope we get a few good ones for memories! There are a few trails near where we live so I typically get a lot of quiet time when I run those trails. How far away do you work that you end up driving instead of running to work?

[Speaker 2] Oh I actually work for a transportation company so I have to drive. My job is only about 15 minutes away from my house. Will you have any other hiking plans for your honeymoon?

[Speaker 1] At least you have a very quick work commute. We plan on hiking a trail at Devil's Hole State Park. When you were in Angel Falls did you find any nice hiking trails?

[Speaker 2] I actually got to hike at the Pulpit Rock. It was the most amazing sight being on the viewing platform. You could see the river for miles!

[Speaker 1] That sounds too amazing to be true! How clear was the river? I hope our experience at Niagra Falls is as wonderful as your trip to Angel falls was.

[Speaker 2] I am sure it will be. Niagra is breathtaking from the pictures I've seen online. The water in Norway is so blue and the sunrise makes everything better. I see we both appreciate the beauty of nature

I run everyday. I run on local trails. I am getting married soon. My fiance and I will honeymoon at Niagra falls. I am going hiking at Devil's Hole State Park on my honeymoon.

I love to paint. I like waterfall art.

I run in a local park everyday.

I drive for a transportation company.

I was in the army.

I love football.

I take hikes and birdwatch.

I hiked Pulpit Rock at Angel Falls in Norway. I've never been to Niagara Falls. I like nature.

[Speaker 1] I just bought a new camera to bring on my honeymoon.

[Speaker 2] What kind of camera did you buy?

[Speaker 1] It's a Canon DSLR, I think the model is 850 D. I am not very good at these things. My friend is a professional photographer and he advised me. It should be a very good camera.Now just to learn how to use it haha

[Speaker 2] It's always fun getting something new and learning how it works. I just got new running shoes yesterday and I cannot wait to try them out!

[Speaker 1] Great, which ones did you buy? Mine are getting a bit old now so I am thinking about buying new running shoes as well.

[Speaker 2] I got Nike free runs. This is my second pair that I have bought from Nike. I've heard great things about this specific shoe though!

[Speaker 1] I will check them on internet. Let me know how they are after you test them. Nike should be good. Do you play football or do you just watch it?

[Speaker 2] I use to play when I was younger, but now I just watch it. Do you play any sports, other than running?

[Speaker 1] I play tennis occasionally with some of my friends. It's a good sport, I am quite competitive so always trying to win. Have you ever played?

[Speaker 2] I've tried it once or twice, but I'm not very good at it. Maybe you could give me some tips!

[Speaker 1] The best tip I can give you is practice, practice, practice. The main thing is to have a good fun.

[Speaker 2] That's really good advice. I always tell people that if you don't love your sport, than you shouldn't being playing it.

[Speaker 1] Do you have a hobby? Or like sports?

[Speaker 2] I like country line dancing if that counts as sports and a hobby. You?

[Speaker 1] I am a baseball fan myself and love the tigers!

[Speaker 2] Oh, that is wonderful! Do you eat healthy foods?

[Speaker 1] I do try to eat healthy and stay thin

[Speaker 2] Me too, I switched to a healthy vegan diet even though I raise animals.

[Speaker 1] Hunting is a favorite for me and helps to avoid processed foods

[Speaker 2] I do miss eating meat, I loved venison. Is that what you hunt?

[Speaker 1] Do hunt deer and pheasant

[Speaker 2] My friend hunts pheasant and shared some ; I liked it.

[Speaker 1] Yes it is not bad. Do you have a favorite tv show

[Speaker 2] I don't get to watch much television with my farm work. Do you?

I am a baseball fan.

I eat healthy food.

I don't eat processed foods.

I like hunting.  I hunt deer and pheasant.

I like country line dancing.
I am a vegan.
I miss eating meat. I loved venison.
I raise animals in a farm.

[Speaker 1] How are your animals doing?

[Speaker 2] They are doing great! I just finished feeding them and now I can make my own lunch. What healthy foods do you like to eat?

[Speaker 1] Oh nice! I try to eat lots of veggies. Do your animals like veggies?

[Speaker 2] I try to feed them lots of grain and feed. They like fresh vegetables as treats! Would you ever become a vegan or vegetarian?

[Speaker 1] I've been looking into it. Was becoming a vegan hard for you?

[Speaker 2] At first it was very hard because I loved eating meat and it was easier to get protein. Now I get all of my protein from beans and other legumes. Now my farm animals don't have to worry.  Have you gone hunting recently?

[Speaker 1] Not recently but I liked to soon. What food to you miss the most?

[Speaker 2] I definitely miss venison but it's easy to find vegan alternatives for things like burgers and pizza nowadays. It's pretty processed unless I make it myself. Have you tried vegan food before?

I am a baseball fan.

I eat healthy food. I don't eat processed foods.

I am considering becoming a vegan.

I like country line dancing.

I raise animals in a farm.

My animals eat grain and feed. I feed my animals fresh vegetables as treats.

I used to eat venison. I used to be a hunter. I make my own vegan food.

[Speaker 1] How are your farm animals? Have they received any vegetables as treats this week?

[Speaker 2] One of my hogs is sick, but that happens sometimes. Otherwise, they're looking good.

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure what a good looking hog would actually look like...lol...My girlfriend has taken up knitting and is looking for alpaca yarn. You wouldn't consider taking on a couple alpacas for the wool, would you?

[Speaker 2] You can get me alpaca? I could take them in. They're known for being easy going, light eaters. I don't know anything about shearing them, though.

[Speaker 1] I sure can't help you with shearing alpacas. I've been sheared myself a couple times at the casino, but I don't think their technique would work on a farm animal. I know you try to keep vegan, but would you feed the hogs meat scraps if the price was right?

[Speaker 2] For the alpaca, I could hire someone to shear them. For the hogs, I don't expect them to be vegetarians. A lot of herbivore animals actually eat a lot of insects. But I don't know if I really need more hog feed right now.

[Speaker 1] It was just a thought. I was shopping for something on ebay and I came across the term 'vegan leather'. I thought if you could keep the hogs vegan, then you could market the pork bellies as 'vegan bacon' and maybe sell the hides to make 'vegan Hush Puppies' ....lol

[Speaker 2] Lol. I don't really go in for making vegan versions of everything. "Vegan bologna." I just accept the fact that I'm not eating bologna any more.

[Speaker 1] I have to go soon, but before I do - did you see where they are having some kind of dance thing over at Billy Bob's Bar and Barber? I know you enjoy line dancing much more than me, maybe because you're good at it. If you go, you might win a couple bucks. Or, maybe some night we could go shining and get a couple bucks that way....lol

[Speaker 2] I didn't see that exactly, but I've been to Billy Bob's. It's a blast. They usually have sports on the TV there. If you didn't want to dance, you could watch a ballgame. And drink of course.

[Speaker 1] Do they still have a wet tee shirt contest on Tuesdays? Charlie B found a wife at that contest.

[Speaker 2] They shut them down due to complaints from certain groups. Also, some guys were complaining that the poor quality of the competitors.'

[Speaker 1] I am just eating some delicious ice cream while sitting in class at ga lol

[Speaker 2] What do you do? I work at the beach a lifeguard.

[Speaker 1] I am a full time student but I work construction in the summer months for

[Speaker 2] That so great, do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I just enjoy traveling really. Its amazing seeing the world

[Speaker 1] Not really. Lol I'm more of a rock and roll fan

[Speaker 2] That still cool, I like to sing to her music in the shower.

[Speaker 1] Ahahah are you any good? I mean you have gotta be right?

[Speaker 2] Well I think I'm, that's all that matters right?

[Speaker 1] Exactly. I just figured with all that practice you gotta be good lol

[Speaker 2] Ahahah who knows maybe I only shower once a week ;

I am a student.
I have a summer job in construction.
I enjoy travelling.
I like rock and roll.

I am a lifeguard at the beach.

[Speaker 1] I am looking to book a trip to Venezuela soon.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like it should be a lot of fun. How long do you plan on vacationing for?

[Speaker 1] I hope so. I am thinking to be there at least 2 or 3 weeks. There are so many thing I want to see. Have you ever been to Venezuela?

[Speaker 2] I have not been to Venezuela. It seems like a dangerous place to visit. But it would probably also be interesting to visit.

[Speaker 1] I just need to organise myself with my studies and then I will be ready to go. I am really looking forward to see the Angel falls during the rainy season. I read that is spectacular.

[Speaker 2] No doubt, best of luck when you go. How's your construction job going these days?

[Speaker 1] It is going well. have many things to do and the days fly but I am happy because it is well paid. How is it going at the beach instead?

[Speaker 2] No one has drowned, so pretty well. I mostly get to sit in my chair and check out the ladies. Totally radical, best job ever.

[Speaker 1] It sounds like a dream lol. How is it the pay?

[Speaker 2] Somewhat better than minimum wage, which is alright I guess. Definitely wouldn't mind some more money though - then again, who would.

[Speaker 1] Absolutely. I think you should get some more money. Ok that is not a physical job but, it requires a lot of responsibility. If anything happens, you have someone's else life in your hands. I would be stressed to live with this burden on me.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, there's the odd time I have to actually do something, you're right. Perhaps I'll ask about a pay raise soon.

I am a student.

I have a summer job in construction. I am very busy. I get paid well.

I enjoy travelling.

I like rock and roll.

I am planning to go to Venezuela for 2 or 3 weeks. I want to see Angel falls during the rainy season.

I have never been to Venezuela.

I'm a lifeguard at a beach. No one has drowned. I'm not busy. I love my job.

I earn more than minimum wage. I might ask for a raise.

[Speaker 1] I booked my trip to Venezuela.

[Speaker 2] fantastic! what great news, when do you go?

[Speaker 1] I will be leaving in 16 weeks... I am so excited to go shopping and I need to learn as much as I can before I go. Do you know any other langua]ge beside English?

[Speaker 2] That's not too long, but still enough time to get everything sorted! Who are you going with? I sadly can't speak any other languages... can you?

[Speaker 1] My Spanish is super rusty. I need to take a crash course on that. I plan on taking my girlfriend with me. she is sorting out some details, so I made sure to buy the travelers insurance. Do you get to travel?

[Speaker 2] with 16 weeks you should hopefully manage to polish up your skills well! I do have time to travel yes, it is easier for me to go in winter though, because of course summer is the busy time of year for my work! Do you have any good recommendations of where is good to visit in winter?

[Speaker 1] Depends on what you like to do. You get to be at the beach a lot, have you ever tried skiing?

[Speaker 2] it would be nice to get a change from the beach, but I do love it! I've only been skiing a couple of times, I enjoyed it but I wasn't very good...

[Speaker 1] If you didn't break a bone, I'd say you are better than you are giving yourself credit for lol. Another idea might be to take an Alaskan cruise. That is one of my wish list things to do. Ive never been on a cruise and I hear they have some economical packages.

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea, I do like being around water so a cruise would be perfect. Do you get the opportunity to travel much as part of your work?

[Speaker 1] Not yet, I am still carving out time for myself to travel. I want to see and experience as much as possible in my youth while I am sill footloose and fancy free. I may decide to never really grow up. I have heard of companies that hire construction workers that travel to different areas for temporary jobs. Maybe I will look into it. Hey, do you think you'd like to travel as a lifeguard, Is that even a thing?

[Speaker 2] definitely worth a look since you're so passionate about travel! Yeah it would be easy to travel as a lifeguard, places abroad are always looking. I'd like to get a few more seasons experience under my belt before making a move though

I am a student.

I like rock and roll.

I enjoy shopping.

I can speak some Spanish, but I need to improve it. I have a girlfriend. I have travelers insurance.

Someday, I hope to take an Alaskan cruise. I have never been on a cruise. I would like to travel as part of a construction worker job.

I have never been to Venezuela.

I can't speak any language other than English.

I usually travel in the winter, because I am busy with work in the summer.  have been skiing, but I'm not very good at it.

I love being around water.

[Speaker 1] What first made you interested in becoming a lifeguard?

[Speaker 2] I wanted to be a lifeguard ever since I was little..  I think it is important to learn to swim and also be helpful.

[Speaker 1] I am currently taking swimming classes because I am planing my trip to Venezuela.They have lot's of lakes and rivers there

[Speaker 2] What a fantastic trip that should be.  I would love to be able to take a trip like that someday.  I love hiking to waterfalls, and just hiking in general.  I'm glad you are taking swimming lessons.  It is important for people to know to swim.  It could save your life or someone elses one day.

[Speaker 1] You should take Spanish lessons and go yourself one day to Venezuela. I bet you will love it.

[Speaker 2] I'm sure I would love it.  Are you taking your girlfriend with you on your trip or going solo?

[Speaker 1] I am going alone. I will try  to also work on a construction site over there.

[Speaker 2] Oh, ok.  So it's a business and personal type trip.  That's good...you will be getting an income while vacationing.  Pretty smart.

[Speaker 1] Yes indeed.What about you?? Are you currently planning a vacation? Maybe going ski somewhere?

[Speaker 2] You talked about a cruise to Alaska.  Me and a friend have a cruise booked right now to go to Aruba, St. Kitts and St. Thomas.   It's not for another 8 months but we are very excited and can't wait.

[Speaker 1] Cool.The good thing about you traveling in the winter is that, over there, is Summer whem is Winter here for us.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, that is cool.  In Aruba and all the other islands, you don't have to worry about winter wither.  It is always beautiful there.

[Speaker 2] I can. I go for walks in the woods when I am done eating tacos.

[Speaker 1] Great plan for sunday! You cannot stay over, due to my talking in my sleep.

[Speaker 2] That's ok. I usually go to the zoo to see the animals I love.

[Speaker 2] Not in a few days. Any good recommendations?

[Speaker 1] I haven't really watched any lately.  I've been watching movies all day today.  Did you make it to the zoo today?

[Speaker 2] No, its a bit snowy here. What movies are you watching?

[Speaker 1] I'm watching Wedding Crashers right now.  I like older comedies!  The zoo in the snow might be cool!  I did that once!  It was cold but some of the animals that thrive in the cold were a lot more active!

[Speaker 2] I'll have to check it out! What other older comedies do you enjoy?

[Speaker 1] I like anything starring Melissa McCarthy.  She's so funny!  The Heat is my favorite!  What kind of movies do you like?

[Speaker 1] Sometimes I like watching documentaries on music.  I saw a cool one on folk metal recently.   You must have a lot of free time if you don't spend it watching tv!

[Speaker 2] I do! Its definitely better for me, mentally. How is your cat doing?

[Speaker 1] He's doing good.  Always getting into things!  He likes to push everything off the counter!  I do think he enjoys our movie watching Sundays though!

I have lots of free time.I would love to have a cat.

[Speaker 1] I got some new toys for my cat.

[Speaker 2] How fun, what does your cat think of the toys?

[Speaker 1] He actually likes to chew on rawhides, like a dog...I told you I had a crazy cat!

[Speaker 2] haha, what a strange cat! I wish I could get a cat, they seem like a lot of fun.

[Speaker 1] They are good fun and there are plenty at the shelter.  I volunteer at the shelter.  Do you want me to keep an eye out for a crazy one for you?

[Speaker 2] I can't have a cat because my landlord forbids pets, but when I buy my own place I will definitely adopt a cat from a shelter.

[Speaker 1] Too bad.  There was one at the shelter last week that was doing a type of army crawl across the floor...it was the craziest thing...was acting like he was crawling under barbed wire!

[Speaker 2] Wow, that is a crazy cat. Do you get to play with the cats at the shelter, or is it just cleaning cages?

[Speaker 1] I actually don't clean any cages, I go in to socialize with the cats and the dogs.  I also do background checks on prospective applicants that are looking to adopt animals.

[Speaker 2] That's really cool. I have plenty of free time, maybe I should check out my local shelter and see if I can volunteer.

[Speaker 1] They are always looking for help.  You could probably take a dog out on your walks through the woods. There is a big problem with dogs not getting enough excercise at the shelter.

[Speaker 1] I heard it was good. Is it one of your favorites

[Speaker 1] Who is your favorite alternative music act?

[Speaker 2] It's pretty cliche but I love the Arctic Monkeys! Do you listen to alternative music at all?

[Speaker 1] Yes, but not as much as I used to back in high school! I like the alternative local radio station a lot, but I don't often concern myself with having favorite artists etc. I just enjoy the music for what it is and add it to my shuffle library if I like it lol.

[Speaker 2] That's a nice way to look at it. I don't follow a lot of artists really closely either, I like listening to playlists that have a mix.

[Speaker 1] Agreed, I feel like I have Spotify to blame for that lol. My "recommended" playlists are always awesome.

[Speaker 2] Mine too! Those are great because they get me to branch out and listen to new things every now and then.

[Speaker 1] Agreed. I find stuff that I never would have found otherwise from artists I never knew existed lol. I'm not someone who likes listening to the same songs all the time, I like always having new stuff to play.

[Speaker 2] What are you listening to these days?

[Speaker 1] I think my favorite song that I've hurt recently was Just written by composer David Lang, super random. It seems to be a song most people don't like lol. How about you?

[Speaker 2] I'll have to check that one out. I'm actually listening to a lot of movie soundtracks lately, I've been busy at work and something without words helps me concentrate.

[Speaker 1] I totally agree, that's actually how I found that song lol. I often play classical music playlists or chillhop when I'm working.

[Speaker 2] Those are good ideas too. I'm going to try some classical this week to switch it up.

I like gummy worms.

I like science fiction books. I have never read the book 1984.

I used to love the alternative music in high school.

I like always having new sons to play. My favorite song that I've heard recently was Just written by composer David Lang.

[Speaker 1] I just listened to some music from my "recommended" playlist on Spotify and it wasn't as great the one from last week.

[Speaker 2] I always wonder how these Spotify algorithms work. They can be hit or miss. Sometimes I find some amazing new artists, and sometimes I get some artists that are way off my tastes. What are some of your favorite artists right now?

[Speaker 1] I honestly don't have any favorites. I get bored easily listening to the same stuff over and over. That's why I really like spotify, but it's been so hit or miss! Is there a way to save songs that you hear on there?

[Speaker 2] Do you subscribe to Spotify Premium? Or do you use the free version? You can save songs you like into different playlists by pressing the heart icon when you're listening to songs that you like. That automatically places the songs into a folder of liked songs (I usually listen to these with the shuffle function).

[Speaker 1] Oh I never noticed that feature. But I'm also not a premium subscriber so maybe I can't access that feature. How's work going at the coffee shop?

[Speaker 2] The coffee shop is going great. We just implemented a loyalty system for our customers and we have been seeing a lot more people come back. I guess people can't say no to free coffee! How's your work going?

[Speaker 1] I love a rewards system! Work is going well. We've been pretty busy with this new client lately. So much so that I haven't had much time to read. What about you, read any good books lately?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I am reading a book called A Wrinkle in Time. I read it when I was younger and it recently came on my radar again and I figured I'd reread it as an adult! What is your favorite genre of books?

[Speaker 1] I usually enjoy reading science fiction. Do you have any recommendations for what I should read next when I get some more time?

[Speaker 2] I love reading self help books and "For Dummies" books. I have learned so many new skills like gardening with these books. What about you? Do you like gardening at all?

[Speaker 1] Oh not at all. I'm not really an outdoor person. I can't stand the heat and bugs make me scream! That's definitely not the best mix for gardening. Have you planted anything lately?

[Speaker 2] Well I hate mosquitoes too, it's the worst part of gardening, but I do love having fresh vegetables. I'm getting ready to plant tomatoes! I had cucumbers and green beans last year. I shared with my neighbors

[Speaker 1] I listened to the audio book of 1984!

[Speaker 2] How did you like it?

[Speaker 1] It is a little frightening to think that "Big Brother" is watching at all times. It definitely got my mind going, so I can see why you like it.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, its my go to when i need to be reminded of the dangers heh. Glad you liked it though

[Speaker 1] How are you liking A Wrinkle in Time so far?

[Speaker 2] Its pretty crazy so far. Im diggin it.

[Speaker 1] Maybe I will check that out next! Have you started your garden yet?

[Speaker 2] No i got everything ready though, just got to commit this weekend to it. Hows the music treating you?

[Speaker 1] Good, I really hope to get to some concerts this summer. Do you plan to go to any?

[Speaker 2] I have only been lazy the past days, lol. I do not have any motivation of recent. Did you go surfing over the weekend? I love beaches too

[Speaker 1] It was way too cold to surf this weekend. Perhaps a trip to the beach will give you the motivation to paint.

[Speaker 2] I guess, I have been craving a vacation so maybe i should visit one of the islands. I was gonna ask how is work going considering how much you hate your job. sorry about that. Are you searching for another?

[Speaker 1] No, I just spend my days dreaming about taking off on a sailboat.

[Speaker 2] Okay you should do what makes you happy when you wana. My best colour is purple, i see we share that in common. Do you work everyday in the week?

[Speaker 1] Yep, I'm in there 9 - 5 every day. You know how it is though, working in a call center will suck the life out of your body.

[Speaker 2] I know the talking is exhausting and people never seem to have enough questions per session. Its crazy. Take it easy and im hoping for a better job for you where you feel happy going

[Speaker 1] I hear ya. Yesterday I talked to this crazy lady who was complaining about a sweater that she bought for her dog.

[Speaker 2] Hahahaha that is too funny. I would be like what the freaking hell. why does he need a sweater if you have to call back complaining. Long annoying hours listening to peoples complains.

[Speaker 1] The problem was that the sweater wasn't even a dog sweater, t was a regular sweater for a person. She just kept telling me that didn't matter because she loved her dog just like it was her son.

[Speaker 2] Ok then next time she should pay attention when picking a sweater for her dog (son). I believe she was an old lady. they are the ones with the complains with such things

[Speaker 2] Wow, that's great! Did it feel amazing to quit? Do you have any future jobs in mind?

[Speaker 1] It felt sooo good.  My boss was so shocked, it was great.  So happy to be moving on with my life.  I bet you know what I'm talking about from when you left your call center job.

[Speaker 2] I do! I still remember the day I quit and how freeing it felt! I am so glad to be out of that position. I just wish I had motivation to find a job I liked! What will you do with all your time?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure, planning on laying low for a bit and relaxing, maybe do some surfing.  Considering trying to expand my art and turning that into a career, but I know that can be tough and unsustainable.

[Speaker 2] It can be tough but I think it's worth trying! Especially in New York City with their great art scene. Have you worked on any new art projects lately?

[Speaker 1] Yeah very true, I'm in a good spot.  And yeah, my art is pretty abstract, really just looks like a bunch of colors on a page but i like it, maybe someone else will too.  How did you get started in art as a career?

[Speaker 2] Once I quit my call center job I started to get serious about painting. I just happened to get noticed and it was all sort of just luck how it played out! I am fortunate. I have some contacts I could set you up with. Maybe we can take your boat out for a day on the lake and talk about it!

[Speaker 1] Oh that would be great, thank you!  And absolutely, just let me know when you'd like to go!  Have you been sailing before?

[Speaker 2] I haven't but I love the water! That's why I spend so much time on the beach. It's so soothing. Is sailing pretty difficult?

[Speaker 1] There's a lot to learn and practice, but once you get the hang of it and "learn the ropes" so to speak it's not so bad.  I'll show you!

[Speaker 2] haha, I bet you're a great teacher! Let's do it. I haven't been on a boat in a long time! How long have you been sailing?
