[Speaker 2] I do the track mixing.  It is fun to listen to the different groups and try to create a sound that they and other like.  What is your favorite King novel?

[Speaker 1] That's awesome! I loved misery so I'd say that but I also loved IT. Have you read any Stephen King?

[Speaker 2] I have not.  I just can't get into his works but I have several friends that love his stuff.  I do love the Green Mile movie.  Speaking of horror, what are your favorite horror films?

[Speaker 1] That's a shame but it's true that his writing isn't for everyone. I like the shining a lot as well as the scream films. Have you seen them?

[Speaker 2] I saw the first Scream film.  It was good but I'm just not into them.  I guess I am a wimp ;-)

[Speaker 1] Ha ha ! They are pretty scary! I think the first one is the best. I should watch more movies. Have you got any recommendations?

[Speaker 2] I've been on an 80s run lately - so Indiana Jones and the original Star Wars movies.  Just the first three.

[Speaker 1] I'll have to give them a watch! How come your are afraid of taking the bus?

[Speaker 2] I got hit by a bus when I was a kid.  I wasn't paying attention after getting off the bus and I walked right in front of it.  You can't get me near a bus anymore.  But I enjoy walking.

I saw the first Scream. I like 80s movies.

[Speaker 1] I saw the first 3 Star Wars recently thanks to your recommendation! What did you think of the 2nd one?

[Speaker 2] Refresh my memory on that. Was the second one where they had to rescue Han from Jaba the Hut?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure which one that happened in, but the 2nd one was not my favorite of the 3.

[Speaker 2] They were all the better movies.  Now that I think of it, the 2nd one was where Luke went to learn from Yoda and that was really cool!

[Speaker 1] I agree! Next on my list of movies to try is Indiana Jones!

[Speaker 2] That is exactly what I was about to say lol! You should definitely watch those! They are great!

[Speaker 1] Your suggestions haven't let me down so far! Have you been doing any walking lately>

[Speaker 2] Well, other than walking to my job and stuff I have went walking at the local park on the weekend. It is really relaxing.

[Speaker 1] That sounds relaxing! Walking can be a great stress relief.

[Speaker 2] It really can be.  Do you take walks?  You know what I like to do is listen to some Amy Grant while out walking. Have you tried that?

[Speaker 1] I have actually. She is one of my favorite singers

[Speaker 2] Mine too.  I like some of her older stuff right now. Have you listened to her Christmas album from years ago that has the song Tennessee Christmas on it?

I love Christian music.

I loved Misery So and IT. I love horror films The Shining and Scream. I like the first Scream the best. I have seen the first three Star Wars movies.  I plan on watching Indiana Jones.

I enjoy walking.

I like listening to Amy Grant.

Both my parents are deceased.

I like Christian music.

I prefer the first three Star Wars movies.

I enjoy listening to Amy Grant's old music.

[Speaker 1] I finally got around to watching Indiana Jones! Did not disappoint!

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! Did you watch it alone, or with company?

[Speaker 1] sort of alone and not alone. Me and my pet dog watched it, haha

[Speaker 2] Haha well that's the best kind of company. What sort of dog is it?

[Speaker 1] it is a mix terrier and maltese. I got her 5 years ago when the original owner could not pay her vet bill and gave her to me.

[Speaker 2] Aww that's so sweet! I'm sure she is grateful for a good home. Do you have a big yard for her to play in?

[Speaker 1] the yard is relatively big. She owns the backyard. And she let others know it, lol

[Speaker 2] Haha hopefully the neighbors have fallen in love with her. I remember our childhood dog getting all sorts of complaints from the neighbors. My parents were so mad!

[Speaker 1] she is good with the neighbors. She is small so she has a small bark so she does not disturb others when she barks.

[Speaker 2] That's a relief. Does she have any doggy friends in the neighborhood?

[Speaker 1] Over the years other dogs have come around. She knows them but they go their own way. I notice dogs don't really play with each other unless the owners are around.

[Speaker 2] That's a good point. I just saw a post about not letting your dogs run free, as some dogs are not so great with socializing.

Other people live with me.

I am a barista.

I like to get tattoos.

[Speaker 1] Hi there. I'm paying my guitar. Just woke up.

[Speaker 2] You play too? I'm in a grunge band with my sister.

[Speaker 1] I hope to be in a band soon.

[Speaker 2] Maybe you can audition for ours.

[Speaker 1] Maybe. I ales most of the day because my job is quite demanding.

[Speaker 2] Mine isn't quite so demanding. I am a barista at a coffee shop.

[Speaker 1] I meant to say sleep. I love coffee. You like working there?

[Speaker 2] Its alright, gives me a flexible schedule.

[Speaker 1] I wish mine did. I rarely see my wife and two kids.

[Speaker 2] What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] I'm an offshore oil rigger.

[Speaker 2] That must be an intense job.

[Speaker 1] Its very demanding. And dangerous.

[Speaker 2] I can imagine. Any piercings allowed at a job like that?

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah. We do not care what you look like as long as you work hard.

[Speaker 2] I've one, an eyebrow piercing.

I play the guitar.

I'm not in a band.

I sleep a lot. I love coffee.

I have a wife and 2 kids.

I also play the guitar. I'm in a grunge band with my sister.

I'm a barista.

I like the flexibility of my job.

I have an eyebrow piercing.

[Speaker 1] I'm about to go on a long work trip and have to prepare to be away from my family. I'm pretty sad about it.

[Speaker 2] Oh no, that really sucks I'm sorry.  I'm away from my family frequently when I'm on the road with my band.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure it is nice to be able to do gigs with your sister though! How long have you been playing music together?

[Speaker 2] We've been playing since we were teenagers in HIgh School.  It's the two of us and our two best friends.  We play at a lot of bars and nightclubs. It doesn't pay that well but it's really fun.

[Speaker 1] That does sound fun! I have always wanted to play in a band, but it just doesn't work with my job. I do like to play guitar on the oil rig to pass time though.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome that you can play guitar out there. It must be kind of serene out there in the ocean too. How long are you going to be gone from your family?

[Speaker 1] I'm usually gone for about two weeks for a time, and then I get to go home for another two weeks. It is hard being away for so long, but it does allow me to be a large part of their life half the time!

[Speaker 2] I assume you can send them messages and chat while you're away too, right?  My sister will call her kids (my nephews) every night while we're on the road.

[Speaker 1] Phone service can be pretty bad out in the ocean, but luckily the rig has wifi that I can use to keep in touch with my family.

[Speaker 2] Has the rig ever gotten hit with a huge wave or anything while you've been out there? I used to surf with my younger cousin and we saw some pretty monster waves from time to time.

[Speaker 1] Yeah the weather is probably the scariest part about the job. Sometimes it is calm, but I have also been out in some crazy storms with gigantic waves.. I am pretty much stuck there, so there isn't much I can do.

[Speaker 2] Yikes! We've hit some pretty bad weather when we've been on the road and it is scary stuff, but I'm sure it's nothing like what you face out there.

I like to play guitar. I'm not in a band.

I sleep a lot. I love coffee.

I have a wife and 2 kids.

I'm an offshore oil rigger. My job is demanding and dangerous. I travel for work. I am away from my family half of the time because of work. I work on the ocean. I keep in touch with my family through wifi while traveling.

I also play the guitar. I've played music since high school. I'm in a grunge band with my sister. Our band goes on tour.

I'm a barista. I like the flexibility of my job.

I have an eyebrow piercing.

I have nephews through my sister.

[Speaker 1] I'm heading back to the rig soon, so I made sure to spend plenty of time with my family.

[Speaker 2] Aw man. How was it? Did you guys do anything fun?

[Speaker 1] That's one things that's nice.  All time together is quality time and we definitely have fun.  This weekend we went to the movies and splurged on popcorn and hot dogs.  How was your weekend?  Any gig planned?

[Speaker 2] That sounds so fun. I mainly worked all weekend, kind of a busy one for some reason. But this week should be smooth sailing lol! We're planning on doing a few local shows for now, and then heading back out on tour soon.

[Speaker 1] Livin' the life.  Lol.  You mentioned your nephews previously.  I was curious if you think they'll join the back eventually?

[Speaker 2] That's a good question. Maybe we'll take them on as roadies sometime when they're older. One isn't too interested in our kind of music, but the other plays bass in his school band, so maybe :P

[Speaker 1] Would be great to keep it in the family.  How old are your nephews.  My two sons are 11 and 13.  Old enough to handle me being gone 2 weeks a month and still so young where I miss them tons.

[Speaker 2] My nephews are 13 and 17. Younger kiddo is the band geek lol. It sucks that you have to be away from them so often, but it must be worth it. (Plus the 2 week weekend must be nice)

[Speaker 1] Those are great ages.  And yes - so interesting how 2 boys can be so different.  My job definitely pays well.  My wife is a trooper.  Now that the kids are older it works out much better.  And 2 weeks off are AWESOME!  I need the time to get my energy back.  What is your shift like?

[Speaker 2] It's not too bad honestly. Some times it can get a little much, especially if we're short. But most of the time it's a good little shop with some good vibes. It also helps they're flexible enough to let me head out on tour! Pretty much my time is either the coffee shop or the van

[Speaker 1] I'm jealous - but in a good way.  We should pick out some sheet music so we can practice out guitar playing - maybe do a virtual chat duet.  Lol.

[Speaker 2] That'd be cool! A zoom jam sesh. Think your internet will be able to handle it?

I have a broken leg.

I do not want to write for work.

I was born 6 weeks early.

I am 4 foot 11.5 inches tall.

I am tall. I work out a lot.

I do gymnastics.

[Speaker 1] So how long have you been doing gymnastics

[Speaker 2] I've been a gymnast all my life. I started doing gymnastics at the age of 5, and I'm 32 now, so I've been doing it for 27 years.

[Speaker 1] That's really cool. I wish I had tried gymnastics that early on. It seems like a lot of work, but so rewarding. I guess I really can't do gymnastics now, what with my leg and all. Not sure how long it will take to heal. Want to work out together when my leg is healed?

[Speaker 2] That's a bummer about your leg. How did you break it? We can definitely start working out together once you're better.

[Speaker 1] It's the dumbest thing how I broke my leg. I went out hiking for the first time of the season, and promptly tripped over a rock and fell down a hill. I do love excercise though. How do you manage to work out so much and have your job? Being a scientist must be incredibly time consuming?

[Speaker 2] That sounds painful! Injuries always happen when we least expect it. When does your doctor expect it to heal? During the workweek, I do the treadmill for a half hour after work. I don't work weekends, so I do sit-ups, push-ups, and run on the treadmill then.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like you have a great routine. That is great inspiration for me to get my act together and work out daily. My leg should be healed by the end of next month. I guess I will need to work out to get my leg strength back. I guess I can use this time to work on writing, but that's not an exciting prospect

[Speaker 2] Yeah, my routine keeps me busy and healthy, both mentally and physically. Why don't you like writing?

[Speaker 1] I'm glad your routine also keeps you mentally healthy. Gotta love an endorphins boost. I feel like I need that. Writing just isn't my thing. But my dad says he won't pay for college if I don't pursue journalism. I don't know why he insists on that. I need to talk to him about it. Any advice?

[Speaker 2] I wish that he would support you in whatever direction you want to go in college. What do you really want to study?

[Speaker 1] I really want to study natural sciences. I think it would be great to be a forest ranger. Maybe my dad sees that as a dead end. My dad has been a journalist his whole life, so maybe he doesn't see anything else as being a "real career". Were your parents supportive of what you wanted to pursue in college, or did they put up resistance?

[Speaker 2] Would you go into biology or something? I was more into the mathematical sciences like physics and chemistry. My parents were very supportive of me.

I have a broken leg.

I do not want to be a journalist. My dad wants me to be a journalist. I do not want to write for work.

I was born 6 weeks early. I am 4 foot 11.5 inches tall. I broke my leg by falling down a hill during a hike. I love  exercising and hiking. My leg will heal by two months.

I work as a scientist. My mom and dad were scientists. I like physics and chemistry. I have supportive parents.

I am tall. I work out a lot.

I'm 32 years old. I've been doing gymnastics for 27 years since I was 5.

[Speaker 1] I talked to my dad about studying to be come a forest ranger.

[Speaker 2] how did that go? was he disappointed?

[Speaker 1] He said no. He thinks that I may not be able to find a job and that I am so short, I could get taken advantage of by murderers or something. I think I would be amazing at it!

[Speaker 2] I think that's kind of an awful thing to say. I didn't realize there was a height requirement for forest rangers.

[Speaker 1] I didn't either. But he worries about me. I told him that i would be able to look at beautiful nature and not have to write articles. But he said maybe I could get a job working for a magazine that concentrates on forest life. Ah. I know he is paying for my college, but do you think I could just change my major and pretend I am doing journalism still?

[Speaker 2] I don't think lying is a good idea, but if you don't plan to get a journalism career, then going to school for it is a waste of money

[Speaker 1] I agree in total. But I cannot afford it myself. Maybe I can like just MINOR in journalism. Then I won't technically be lying?

[Speaker 2] if you think that is best. do forest rangers need a college degree though? I didn't think that was something you needed to go to school for

[Speaker 1] I want to be a wildlife specialist and lead guided tours. So yeah, I think that it is needed.

[Speaker 2] I didn't know that. I think you should follow your heart. if you are not into journalism, you likely won't get a very good job doing it.

[Speaker 1] I likely won't do a good job either. But I would be amazing with working with guiding people on hikes and finding animals and lecturing on the safe plants and stuff. I already know where I want to actually work which is a wildlife reserve. I have always loved that place

[Speaker 2] I say go for it. you are an adult and your dad isn't the one who has to live this life.

I am going to college for journalism. I want to study natural sciences. I want to become a forest ranger. My dad doesn't think I should be a forest ranger. My dad thinks I should write nature articles. My dad pays for my college. I'm thinking about tricking him into thinking I'm still studying journalism. I am financially dependent on my father.

I want to be a wildlife specialist. I think that college is needed. I would really like to guide tours in the wilderness and find animals and plants.

I am tall. I work out a lot.

[Speaker 1] I applied for a summer internship at the wildlife reserve.  That way I can see if that's what I really like and maybe get my foot in the door.

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea. Keep moving on to set your goal. Wishing you the best luck.

[Speaker 1] Thank you so much. Your support means more than you can know. My dad should be proud I am just dipping my toe in the water with the internship, but I doubt he will see it that way.

[Speaker 2] You are right. But you have a chance ti convince him. He will support you and curdles

[Speaker 1] I sure hope so. If I get the internship, it's 30 hours/week for the entire summer. I sure will learn a lot.

[Speaker 2] Very nice. Have a wonderful internship. Have you missed to enjoyed your hiking ever?

[Speaker 1] My leg is still healing, but it should be good to go and hike for the internship *fingers crossed*

[Speaker 2] Get well soon. And prayers for you.

[Speaker 1] Thank you so much. I used you as a reference on my application. I hope that is ok!

[Speaker 2] Okay. Thank you. I love doing various research

[Speaker 1] You are so smart! I appreciate you helping me.

[Speaker 2] Definitely I will do my best for you. Hope you enjoyed the conversation with me

I like funk rock.
I run the till at a couple of places.
I eat naturally.

[Speaker 1] My friends don't call me by my real name.

[Speaker 2] What do they call you then?

[Speaker 1] Bubblegum. I also have red hair like my sibling.

[Speaker 2] Why do they call you that?

[Speaker 1] It is because I found the antidote for the everyday sickness it tastes like bubblegum.

[Speaker 2] Interesting, people think I am a goth because I like dark clothes.

[Speaker 1] Not I, my brother and I are very outgoing, we both have red hair.

[Speaker 2] I also love non genetically modified foods.

[Speaker 1] I love to vocalize about food while bathing!

[Speaker 2] Singing in the shower about squid?

[Speaker 1] I sing about anything, I love it!

[Speaker 2] Do you sing red hot chili pepper songs?

[Speaker 1] Yes! I sing anything in the shower. Especially about finding the cure!

[Speaker 2] The cure? For what?

[Speaker 1] The common cold! That is what I found the cure for!

[Speaker 2] You seem to be very smart.

My friends call me Bubblegum. I have red hair.

I have a brother.

I love to vocalize about food while bathing.

I love singing.

I found the cure for the common cold.

[Speaker 1] I just took a shower and I had so much fun singing all my favorite songs in there!

[Speaker 2] This sounds funny indeed! Who is your favourite singer?

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, I don't think I could choose just one. There are so many! Do you have a favorite?

[Speaker 2] Like you I have many favourite singers...but if I really have to choose one, I would choose Lady Gaga. Do you like her?

[Speaker 1] She has an excellent voice, judging just by the merits of her voice I would have to say yes, although I do think she's a bit odd. I guess most people are though!

[Speaker 2] I consider her one of the most complete singer I have ever heard. Technically, I do not think there is anyone else better than her. And yes, she is quite eccentric...maybe I like her because she's not ashamed of who she is.

[Speaker 1] Well I must admit that embracing who you are is something to be admired. I think that most really good musicians and singers historically have been rather eccentric though. Maybe it goes with the territory.

[Speaker 2] I agree with you on this. You are right. Listen, it's a while that I feel my throat burning...what was that cure that you were talking about earlier?

[Speaker 1] The cure for the cold? I personally feel that Thieves essential oil with Lemon in hot tea does wonders for a burning throat. And some good old fashioned rest as well! You have to listen to your body. It's particularly important if you're a singer. You can really damage your vocal cords if you don't take care of yourself when you're sick.

[Speaker 2] I will go to buy some essential oil as soon as possible then. Can't wait to go back home and enjoy something warm. A lemon tea sounds great! I will follow your advice. Thanks!

[Speaker 1] You're welcome! I hope you feel better soon. Take good care of yourself!

[Speaker 2] I will let you know how it goes. Maybe we can catch up tomorrow. Do you have any plan for tomorrow?

I have a brother.

I love singing.

I found the cure for the common cold. I believe in holistic medicine.

I admire people who are their true selves.

I love dark clothes.
I love non genetically modified foods.
Lady Gaga is my favorite singer.
I am away from home.

[Speaker 1] My shower's water pressure is having problems, so I wasn't able to sing in there and relieve some stress.

[Speaker 2] Bummer! That is annoying. I would love to hear your rendition of some lady gaga jams.

[Speaker 1] You sure do love that gaga! I had planned to sing some Madonna, but obviously that did not happen.

[Speaker 2] Did you have any food discussions since you couldn't sing?

[Speaker 1] I did. I was talking about GMO's and how bad they are for people. What are your favorite non GMOs?

[Speaker 2] I love non GMO fruits and vegetables. They are healthy, tasty, and make me feel nourished.

[Speaker 1] My brother says the same thing. He is always talking how healthy he feels after eating non GMOs.

[Speaker 2] Is your brother's hair red too?

[Speaker 1] It is, but it is more of a strawberry blonde instead of the deep red of my hair.

[Speaker 2] I wish I had red hair. It would match nicely with my dark clothes.

[Speaker 1] I agree. Red hair is the perfect compliment to a dark colored wardrobe.

[Speaker 1] For a few hours this morning. It really makes me feel good to help others.

[Speaker 2] That's nice, it really has to be a calling especially helping the elderly , not everyone can do it.

[Speaker 1] I know but you learn so much by listening to older people, they have such a large span of experience. Do you get a lot of new people in your meeting?

[Speaker 2] yes, people from all works of life, some times I keep up with them after the meeting. so with your height, are you into any sports ?

[Speaker 1] Ha! You'd think basketball right? However I can't dribble without hitting my feet and my shots sometimes hit the backboard.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, at least you are better than me. I'm not that tall, wish I could play basket ball , I love it a lot

[Speaker 1] I go golfing a couple times a month and I'm not too bad with that sport. My friends and I love to play.

[Speaker 2] You play golf , I want to learn how to play it for fun and don't know how I can go about it, have any ideas

[Speaker 1] Just start by going to a driving range and learn to pop it out there, then try the putting green. You'll meet people there that will play with you, remember most golfers are not that good either.

[Speaker 2] Thanks, I will take care your advise and look into it, I got to love the game by watching Tiger Woods over the years

I am a 6 feet tall woman. I often wear red to stand out.

I have a condo.

I enjoy volunteering at a home for the elderly .

I love to play golf.

I love red.

I have a new condo. I live next door to my partner. I want to marry my partner.

I have a large broom mustache.

I enjoy basketball.

I want to learn to golf.

I am a fan of Tiger Woods.

[Speaker 1] You wouldn't believe it, I was golfing the other day and I hit a hole in one!

[Speaker 2] Wow that's impressive, you must be really good. I could do with some lessons! Where do you go to play golf?

[Speaker 1] we play at the golf course next to the lake. it's very pretty there. you should come some time.

[Speaker 2] I'd love to, when's a good time? I'll ask my partner if she wants to learn golf with me, like that I won't feel like the only one who doesn't know how to strike.

[Speaker 1] we can go this weekend. there are lots of beginners there.

[Speaker 2] Okay I'll ask my partner if she's free and get back to you. Do we need to book or anything in advance?

[Speaker 1] no. i'm a member so i can go whenever i want

[Speaker 2] Cool. Do I need to bring my own clubs? I only have one so I'd need another one for my partner.

[Speaker 1] they have rentals there. so you're fine.

[Speaker 2] Ok good. I hope the weather holds - it's been threatening to rain since yesterday...  not good for golf, I suppose?

[Speaker 1] not the best, but there would be less people there if you wanted to brave it anyways.

[Speaker 2] I'm game for it! I used to play basketball in the rain all the time. Do you play any other sport?

I have a condo.

I love to play golf. I play at the golf course next to the lake. I am a member of the golf course.

I love red.

I have a new condo. I live next door to my female partner. I want to marry my partner.

I have a large broom mustache.

I enjoy basketball. I used to play basketball.

I want to learn to golf. I am a fan of Tiger Woods. My female partner doesn't play golf either.I have one golf club.

[Speaker 1] Catch any good basketball games lately?

[Speaker 2] I caught an Orlando Magic game not too long ago. We lost, so I can't say it was good, but I enjoyed myself!

[Speaker 1] Any memorable plays? Sometimes when I watch sports and the team I am rooting for plays poorly, I envision so many other plays that could have helped them.

[Speaker 2] The playing was so mediocre I could laugh. It seems like the Magic's offense consists solely of attempting 3-pointers and making layups. I really should start attending more golf events out here. At least I'd see some good playing!

[Speaker 1] Did you see any players' shots get blocked? I am horrible at basketball, but I am so tall that I can take the ball out of almost anyone's hands as they try to take a shot. I can even wait until they are in mid air to go grab for the ball!

[Speaker 2] Haha basically every shot that the Magic took, or so it seemed. I'm sure being so tall has so many advantages!

[Speaker 1] Does your girlfriend like watching basketball with you? Does she like any sports?

[Speaker 2] I floated the idea of golfing with her, and she's down to try it! Living in Orlando, we're spoiled for choice when it comes to golf courses.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you can gradually get her to like more and more aggressive sports. At some of the sports, she might be better than you think she would be.

[Speaker 2] Do you play any of those more physical sports? She's very feminine, so I'm not sure if she'll go for that.

[Speaker 1] No, I gave up after trying basketball. However, I do feel that the more things you and your girlfriend can enjoy together, the better your relationship will be. Me and my dad both enjoyed golf, and that has helped us to be close.

[Speaker 2] That's wonderful! I'm assuming he's still alive? I miss my parents a lot. They passed away years ago.

[Speaker 2] Are you moisturizing it to help with the healing?

[Speaker 1] I did. The tattoo maker gave me a cream that helped me to heal. Plus he advised me to use also some Vaseline.

[Speaker 2] I was so dumb when I got mine and didn't take good care of it. Its starting to fade now. What made you decided to get this tattoo?

[Speaker 1] I decided to to get a tattoo of Goku because he is my favourite character. He is cheerful, has an energetic personality and loves competition. About your tattoo instead, you should plan to go back to the studio to define it as soon as possible.

[Speaker 2] Yea? I have actually been thinking about getting a watercolor tattoo! They are beautiful but the artists here are booked out for the next year for water color art!

[Speaker 1] Are you going to have one more rose? How come did you decide a rose for your tattoo?

[Speaker 2] The rose was for my grandmother. When I was younger she used to recite this poem in French to me, "Contre qui, rose". I got it after her funeral.

[Speaker 1] I find beautiful from you to want to remember and honour your mum with your tattoo. When did she pass away?

[Speaker 2] when i was 17 and in my dramatic phase. Do you see a lot of yourself in Goku?

[Speaker 1] I am so sorry for your grandmother. My condolences. Yes definitely, I find his personality really close to mine. It's a way to remind myself to never change!

[Speaker 1] I bet. Same here. Just makes a person happy to be fishin

[Speaker 2] It is probably the most relaxing way to spend the day off, that and getting sushi

[Speaker 1] Can I tell you a secret?

[Speaker 2] I am sure you can. What is it?

[Speaker 1] I run up to total strangers in parks sometimes, and try and sword fight them

[Speaker 2] Most people do not have swords with them. What do you do then?

[Speaker 1] Use sticks, I've too much energy, 4 mountains dews a day makes me hyper

[Speaker 2] So, you are telling me that you occasionally assault people with sticks in parks?

[Speaker 1] I mean if they aren't into it, I do not push it, but yeah I guess

[Speaker 2] And, your reasoning for doing this is four mountain dews. Very interesting.

[Speaker 1] What can I say, I am an imaginative person

[Speaker 2] I don't think imaginative is the adjective. Woh cool rhyme.

[Speaker 1] Poet and you didn't know it

[Speaker 2] I make a rhyme every time.

[Speaker 1] So do you like movies?

[Speaker 2] Yes, movies are fun. Music is my passion. I play piano at a bar.

[Speaker 1] I like movies where aliens attack earth, what genre of music do you play

Sometimes, I have sword fights with strangers in the park.

I am an imaginative person.

I like movies. I play piano at a bar.

I like movies where aliens attack earth.  Music is my passion. I play jazz music. I love country music.

[Speaker 1] I watched an alien movie today and there was some country music playing that I thought you would like.

[Speaker 2] Really! Tell me about it and the movie generally

[Speaker 1] It was playing the son "Ground I Grew Up On Laine Hardy". Do you know it?

[Speaker 2] I have heard about it but never listened to it. What was the scene it was played in look like.

[Speaker 1] It was played when the aliens were attacking earth in the movie "Independence Day". How is your work at the bar?

[Speaker 2] Wow! It must be an intense scene. I would love to see the movie. My work is going well.

[Speaker 1] What music did you play last night?

[Speaker 2] I did not play any music last night. Did you fight strangers in the park after seeing the movie?

[Speaker 1] I didn't find anyone to fight with. What are usually the music that you play at the bar?

[Speaker 2] I normally play country music. However, I thought you don't normally find anyone to fight but just imagination.

[Speaker 1] They are not real fights. We use swords in wood to fight. Any particular country musics that you frequently play at the bar?

[Speaker 2] Ok. I don't have specific country music. I play randomly

I am an imaginative person.

I like movies. I play piano at a bar.

[Speaker 1] I found another country song that you might like.

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, tell me about it. How did you hear about i?

[Speaker 1] I think it was called Jolene, by some lady named Dolly Parton. Have you ever heard of her? Some guy was playing it on a speaker when I was at the park.

[Speaker 2] I have definitely heard of Dolly Parton. She is awesome. Have you listened to any other songs from her?

[Speaker 1] No I have't, but I dig that one song! So relatable... What's her story?

[Speaker 2] She has been a country singer for quite some time. She's definitely one of the classics. What were you up to at the park?

[Speaker 1] Oh you know, the usual... Just having some sword fights with strangers. This was the first time someone else actually had a sword!

[Speaker 2] Oh my! That must have been terrifying. How did that go?

[Speaker 1] Not well for me... This guy had backup though. There were at least five other guys with swords, all dressed in these weird all white outfits with mesh masks. Talk about crazy...

[Speaker 2] Hi, I am fine. I like death metal, what about you?

[Speaker 1] I like more melodical stuff... That I can sing, or play at the piano.

[Speaker 2] Oh I see, a very chill person. Do you go to school or work?

[Speaker 1] I work, as a dancer. I should try dancing to death metal some time!

[Speaker 2] Oh I see, a very chill person. Do you go to school or work?

[Speaker 1] Yes, very chill... Also a night owl. What about you?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, definitely a night owl, I live with my parents.

[Speaker 1] What food do you like?

[Speaker 2] Nothing healthy! Basically top ramen, microwave ready mac and cheese, yum.

[Speaker 1] Yes, that is no healthy. I am actually a vegetarian. What do you do?

[Speaker 2] Wow, what do you eat then? I go to the local college and study.

[Speaker 1] Everything but meat, cheese, and eggs! What do you study?

[Speaker 2] I study astronomy! I love the galaxy. Where do you work as a dancer?

I don't eat healthy.

I am in college.

I study astronomy.  I love the galaxy.

[Speaker 1] I just nailed the dance routine and it felt amazing!  I just had to share it with you.

[Speaker 2] Wow! Awesome! Did you sing during the dance routine? You have a great voice.

[Speaker 1] Oh no, no singing while I dance a routine like that.  The movements make it too difficult to sing at the same time.  How is college going?

[Speaker 2] It is great, thanks! I love astronomy. Have you ever studied it?

[Speaker 1] Are you going to school for astronomy?  I've never studied it but I have thought about learning more since I love being awake at night.  Nothing beats looking up at a star filled sky on a quiet night.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I am getting my bachelors in astronomy next year. You should try taking a class too!

[Speaker 1] Do you have a plan for work in the field once you graduate?  Have you had any internships?  I would but dancing is my passion and I already work as a dancer full time, so time for things like extra classes for fun is limited.  It would be a fun hobby to take up though.

[Speaker 2] I have not interned yet. I am excited to work and put my education to work! It is nice to be paid to do what you love, isn't it?

[Speaker 1] You should try to get an internship, even unpaid, it will really help you make connections and find a job in the field.  Is there anywhere you dream of working?  It really is, I am very fortunate that I got to work as a dancer.  This conversation has inspired me to create a space themed routine.

[Speaker 2] I would love to work for NASA. I hear they pay well too. I am so happy to have inspired you!

[Speaker 1] NASA is a good choice.  I went to visit NASA in houston once and loved it.  Have you thought about SpaceX at all?  I am thinking of doing it to a Muse song, they are one of my favorites.

[Speaker 2] Elon Musk is doing amazing things with space x. I would love to see your dance rednition when you are done!

I work as a dancer full time.

I like to stay awake at night.

I am vegetarian.

I visited NASA in Houston.  I love Muse music.

I like death metal.

I don't eat healthy.

I am in college studying astronomy.  I love the galaxy. I am getting my bachelors in astronomy next year. I would love to work for NASA.

[Speaker 1] What would you like to do at NASA?

[Speaker 2] My dream is to be astronomer for NASA. I know it is quite hard but I will put all myself to make it!

[Speaker 1] Did you know the average astronaut is 34 years old? You have plenty of time to train!

[Speaker 2] I know I know, but if I don't put positive pressure on me, I will never pursuit my goals! You know the average salary is over 100.000$...not bad right?

[Speaker 1] hahahaha well if you want to do it for the money then you should check out some of the big pharma companies. NASA made a statement this past year that their goal is to open low orbit labs for private research, and I am sure these companies would pay even more for you to be an astronaut!

[Speaker 2] The money are only circumstantial. I can only imagine the day will come when I will tell my parents I got hired to the NASA. I will make them super proud!

[Speaker 1] What do your parents do?

[Speaker 2] My father is a teacher and my mom is a personal assistant. What about your parents?

[Speaker 1] My dad is a musician, or was. Now he mostly writes songs for advertisements or does demos for song writers to send to band. My mom is into antiques.

[Speaker 2] That's where your love for music is coming from! Does you mom work in a shop or for some museum?

[Speaker 1] It is, when I was in high school he let me make extra money by singing or playing the piano for whatever he was working on. Ultimately i love to dance more though. Nahhh she just loved going to thrift stores and bringing home "treasures". I think she might be a hoarder....

[Speaker 2] I Imagine your dad how happy he was when coming back he was finding some new "treasure" around the house. I bet that would have been funny!

I work as a dancer full time.

I like to stay awake at night.

I am vegetarian.

My dad was a musician.  My mom likes antiques. I think my mom is a hoarder.

In high school I made money by singing o playing the piano.

I like death metal.

I don't eat healthy.

I am in college studying astronomy. I love the galaxy. I am getting my bachelors in astronomy next year. I want to be an astronomer for NASA.I need to put positive pressure on myself to train for NASA.

I want to make my parents proud. My mom is a personal assistant. My father is a teacher.

[Speaker 1] Are there any death metal bands you recommend I listen to?

[Speaker 2] Check out Urine Festival. They're a goregrind group, which fuses grindcore and death metal. If you can handle that, death metal will feel tame by comparison.

[Speaker 1] I've heard there is a genre called melodic death metal. I really like melodic stuff - do you think maybe that would be a good place for me to start? I can't lie, Urine Festival sounds a little intense. LOL

[Speaker 2] Haha well I guess it depends on how you tend to approach things. I usually like to jump in the deep end and then ease up, but if you're the type to dip your toe in the water before jumping in, melodic death metal might be for you.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I think that might be the better route for me. Plus, if I enjoy it, I wouldn't mind learning some of it on piano. Can you give me any good suggestions?

[Speaker 2] At The Gates and In Flames are some of the founding groups of the subgenre, so try giving them a listen. If you like them, there might be some fakebooks you can buy that would allow you to play their songs on the piano.

[Speaker 1] Nice. I'll definitely check them out. I like the sounds of "At the Gates". Anyways, how has the schooling been going? Learned any new interesting stuff in astronomy?

[Speaker 2] It's going well! The material can be hard, but when you're interested in it, it's a lot of fun. What about dance? How is that going?

[Speaker 1] Dance has been great. I actually had an audition last week as a back up dancer in a local rapper's music video. It was pretty interesting to say the least. I got the gig, but the shoot isn't for a couple weeks from now.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, that sounds like quite a change of pace! What's the main genre of dance that you do?

[Speaker 1] Hip Hop and everyone's favorite dance, interpretive!

[Speaker 2] You must be really in tune with your emotions! Maybe I'll have to take an interpretive dance class sometime haha.

[Speaker 2] That is gross! I hate kids

[Speaker 1] Oh no. I love babies

[Speaker 2] They are the worst! I can not deal with any kids and will never have any

[Speaker 1] Never say never. Raising babies is very rewarding

[Speaker 2] I've previously been married 3 times and am not looking for a fourth

[Speaker 1] Well I hope you find your happiness elsewhere then

[Speaker 2] I do I own 3 ferrari

[Speaker 1] Why do you need three? Do they make you happy?

I have been married 3 times.

Cars are a hobby of mine.

[Speaker 1] One of my kids won an award at school.

[Speaker 2] What kind of award? Like one of those for participation?

[Speaker 1] Nope! It was for outstanding performance in spelling. I'm very proud.

[Speaker 2] That sounds pretty cool--is reading and spelling something they've always been good at?

[Speaker 1] No, actually, they had to work very hard at it! Thanks for asking. Let's hear about your cars. Any new ones to add to your collection?

[Speaker 2] No new one's recently. Been spending a lot of time in the garage tinkering with the three though.

[Speaker 1] Awesome! What new modifications have you been making?

[Speaker 2] Right now I'm upgrading the audio systems--that's one thing new cars really having going for them.

[Speaker 1] Nice. I love listening to music while I drive. Has it been really time consuming or is it something that comes easy for you?

[Speaker 2] Little bit of both---it's relatively easy to do, and I enjoy it. But it's also a bit tedious

[Speaker 1] I see. Is this an update you're making to each of your cars or are you just focusing on one of them at the moment?

[Speaker 2] Just one right now, I've updated everything else and it's so much fun to drive. But I'd like to be able to listen to satellite radio in it.

I am a mom with five kids.

I am great with babies.

I love listening to music while I drive.

I hate kids. I will never have babies.

I have been married 3 times.

I own 3 Ferraris. Cars are a hobby of mine. My cars are older.

I like listening to satellite radio.

[Speaker 1] Did you finish upgrading the audio systems for your cars?

[Speaker 2] I just finished on the first one, now on to the next! How are all the kiddos doing? Any more awards?

[Speaker 1] Oh that's so wonderful! I'm sure you'll have tons of fun listening to the radio with the new system. They're doing well! My oldest just won her high school science fair–I'm super proud of her.

[Speaker 2] Wow, that's pretty impressive! What was her science project on?

[Speaker 1] She's so smart! She did a project analyzing the aerodynamics of skiing, since we all ski in our spare time. It was really interesting to hear about.

[Speaker 2] Man, that's way over my head... Congrats! I've only been skiing once. I usually go snowboarding. Where does your family like to ski?

[Speaker 1] I can't say I understood much of it either–science was never my thing. We have some family in Virginia near a ski resort, so we usually go visit them. Where do you like to snowboard?

[Speaker 2] Nice! Do all the little ones ski? I grew up in New Mexico, so my favorite place to hit the slopes is Taos!

[Speaker 1] The youngest two aren't quite old enough yet, but they love their special alone time with their grandparents while we're skiing, so it all works out. I've always wanted to go to Taos! It looks so cool.

[Speaker 2] It's awesome! You guys should definitely come visit. I have a guest house here I'm sure the whole lot of you could fit in. Have you ever been to New Mexico before?

[Speaker 1] I would love that! We just might take you up on your offer! I went once when I was little, so it'll be great to go back.

[Speaker 2] Perfect! Just start preparing yourselves for some nice spicy food, we've cover everything we eat in chile! You all do like spicy food, right?


I already have 3 children.

I am 26 years old.

I'll be on bed rest for the next 5 months.

I found out that I'm carrying twins.

I've thrown up every day for the last 3 months with morning sickness.

I own four german shepherds.

I believe in ghosts and have seen them on several occasions.

I have created my own personal religion.

I only buy convertible cars.

I'm a father.

I'm in my mid twenties.

My social life is limited for the time being.

I am having kids soon.

I have gotten sick at the start of everyday for a long time now.

I've a handful of dogs.

I see paranormal activities.

I like to meditate.

I like to drive with the sun shining on me.

[Speaker 1] Good evening, how are you?

[Speaker 2] Just prepping my 4 german shepherds to take their shift watching out for ghosts!

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun. Unfortunately, I've an injury, on top of carrying twins.

[Speaker 2] That is too bad, I started my own religion, maybe it could help you?

[Speaker 1] I could use all the prayers I can get, this will make 5 children for me

[Speaker 2] Wow, that is a lot. Think they could all fit in a convertible? I only buy those.

[Speaker 1] They could. Count me out, I vomit every morning because of the twins I'm carrying

[Speaker 2] Wow. Vomit is gross, especially from ghosts! I have seen that happen a few times, ghosts vomiting!

[Speaker 1] The doctor has me assigned to bed rest for almost half a year. Come visit me?

[Speaker 2] You mind if I bring the four dogs? They love convertible rides.

[Speaker 1] Sure! My 3 kids are very good around animals.

[Speaker 2] Awesome, hopefully I get there before there's 5 so each one gets a dog!

[Speaker 1] What a great idea! Just don't bring any ghosts around.

[Speaker 2] I will try not to, but they seem to like me. That's why the dogs are on watch!

[Speaker 1] Do you have any personal home remedies for morning pregnancy sickness?

[Speaker 2] I usually just pray to the convertible gods of my church, then go for a ride!

I am pregnant with twins.
I will have five children.
I have three children right now.

I have 4 German Shepherds.
I have my own religion.
I have a convertible.

[Speaker 1] My twins have been kicking.

[Speaker 2] That's really good. It must be so exciting right? You already have three children right?

[Speaker 1] Yes, two girls and one boy as of right now. I am hoping for two more boys.

[Speaker 2] That's amazing. Well, I hope you get what you wish for. How old are your three children? Isn't it already too hard with three kids? Are you nervous to have five kids? I am actually very nervous to have kids, and that's why I just don't want kids. Instead, I have 4 German shepherds to keep me busy.

[Speaker 1] The girls are eleven and  five, the boy is eight. It's not too hard now since they are able to help around the house. I was nervous at first about how my other three would take it, but they are all very excited! Four German Shepards have to be a handful too. Do you walk them all at once or one at a time?

[Speaker 2] That's good. I mean, eventually as the kids get older they're more handy. With the dogs, yes they can get handful, but I kind of manage with them. I do take them for a walk two at a time as it makes it more easier, but sometimes it does get overwhelming. Also, I do like taking them for a drive in my convertible. They really enjoy a drive in the car.

[Speaker 1] That must be amazing to see, four big dogs enjoying the ride. How old are all of them? Did you get them all at once or got a new one every so often?

[Speaker 2] I got them all at once. They're siblings actually. So, they're all like 3 years old now. They're mother died while giving birth, and so all of them were kept together to overcome the loss. When I went to purchase them, I saw them all together, and didn't want to separate them as they all looked really traumatized. That's why I purchased them all at once. Do you have any dogs? .

I am pregnant with twins. I have three children: two girls and one boy. My daughters are eleven and five years old. My son is eight years old.

I have 4 German Shepherds. My dogs are all siblings.

I have my own religion.

I have a convertible.

[Speaker 1] I went to a car dealership recently to look for a bigger vehicle for my growing family.

[Speaker 2] Did you find anything you liked?

[Speaker 1] A few things, but we are going to look at another dealership before we decide. Tell me more about your religion? Should I convert?

[Speaker 2] I can't really say whether you should convert or not, that's something that you really need to decide for yourself. I can tell you that my my religion is different from most others in that there aren't a bunch of restrictions and rules. The main thing is to just be a good person. Karma is also a huge thing I believe in. How would you're husband feel about you converting? And what about the kids?

[Speaker 1] We aren't very religious. But those all sound like great things for kids to grow up learning. When did you find this faith?

[Speaker 2] It's been about 5 years, I had a falling out at my previous religious institution (would rather not talk about that...), and I went on an exploration of religion. Nothing really spoke to me so I decided to just establish my own. It doesn't make sense to a lot of people, but it works for me. How are you feeling? When areyou due?

[Speaker 1] I'm at 6 months. Honestly its easier now that this is my fourth time. We are still deciding on names though. How did your parents choose your name?

[Speaker 2] I honestly don't know! I've never though to ask them. I'll have to d that some time. Do you know what you're having?

[Speaker 1] two more boys! I have thought about giving them "matching names", but then I also want them to feel like they are more than twins, and i am afraid if i give them names that go together they will always feel like 1/2 a set instead of a complete person on their own.

[Speaker 2] I never even thought about it like that! That makes sense though. Tough decision. How are the other kids feeling about the new edition? Are they excited?

[Speaker 1] My son is very excited to have brothers. I think the girls are less happy that they are going to be out-numbered soon. Have you thought about having kids?

[Speaker 2] I've thought about it, but just don't know if it's right for me. I like my independence (and my convertible!) I just can't imagine giving up so much and being tied down. Maybe later in life. Did you always know you wanted a family?

I am 6 months pregnant with twin boys. I have three children: two girls and one boy. My daughters are eleven and five years old. My son is eight years old.

I am looking to buy a bigger vehicle.

My family and I are not very religious.

I have my own religion. My religion gives Karma great importance. My religion does not have a lot of rules and restrictions. I established my own religion 5 years ago.

I have a convertible.

I don't know if I want to have children. I like my independence.

[Speaker 1] How did you end up with 4 dogs who are all siblings?

[Speaker 2] My dogs are my family, and I would never want to separate a family, be it humans or fuzzy little critters. You sound like you have a litter of your own at home, though. LOL.

[Speaker 1] That's cool, did you have the parent dogs as well?

[Speaker 2] I don't. My pups were all part of the same unwanted litter. I'm a sucker for cute little pets. Are you ready for the addition to your family that's coming soon?

[Speaker 1] We're starting to get some things prepared to make it easier. Quick meals and that sort of thing. The other kids are getting excited about it.

[Speaker 2] That's going to be a necessity, I'm sure. Keeping things quick, that is. And you've got some built-in helpers with the older kids.

[Speaker 1] That's true, they're looking forward to helping with the babies, especially my son

[Speaker 2] I'll bet. It will definitely help him figure out if he's interested in having kids of his own someday. LOL. You're going to need a bus to drive everyone around once the twins arrive. What are you looking at as far as vehicles go?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure. I really don't want to be one of those mini van families but we might have to go that way to fit everyone and everything in the car.

[Speaker 2] Well, I use a large SUV for my "family" right now, and I have to tell you, I would not be opposed to getting a mini-van next time. Granted, they're not exactly exciting or stylish, but they do just work and are ideal for getting large groups in and out of the vehicle.

[Speaker 1] Acoustic. I use it for the soundtrack of my movies.

[Speaker 2] You are movies? Whoa cool! You do stuff on youtube or something?

[Speaker 1] No real movies. I won an award at sundance for best lesbian director.

[Speaker 2] Wow.. I didn't even know that was a category. Ll.

[Speaker 1] Haha. I dedicated the last film to my father. He just had a heart attack.

[Speaker 2] Awww... I am sorry to hear that.

[Speaker 1] Its ok. He is made a full recovery.

[Speaker 2] Well that's good! I had a good friend of mine pass away from a heart condition

[Speaker 1] Oh I'm so sorry. Heart conditions can come as a surprise.

[Speaker 2] Well, she's was born with it, and knew it was a possibility but..

[Speaker 1] You never fully prepare to lose a friend.

[Speaker 2] Yeah... So, what else do you like? I'm in several book clubs and the pta..

[Speaker 1] I'm almost finished with my latest movie. What a relief!

[Speaker 2] Really! What is that movie you are seeing?

[Speaker 1] It is a documentary about the life and tribulation of LGBT athletes. I always wanted to tell there stories, and now I'm almost finished telling their tales.

[Speaker 2] Cool! Why are you so interested in LGBT?

[Speaker 1] I'm a lesibian, and I felt that it was my duty as a film maker to help other LGBT people. This is my way of doing so.

[Speaker 2] That is good! I don't discriminate about LGBT

[Speaker 1] That's good to know. What recent books has your book club covered?

[Speaker 2] Currently, we are not working on any book. We are taking some break. Tell me about Sundance award.

[Speaker 1] I won an award for a small scale film about women facing sexism in the workplace. It was a proud moment for me, you know.

[Speaker 2] Yes. I can see you are doing all your best in protecting LGBT. That is very good. I commend you. Do you explore other genre and area of film acting?

[Speaker 1] I dabbled into the thriller and suspense genre. I'm still not good at writing suspense, but I'm learning.

[Speaker 2] That is good to hear. Sometimes, it is good to diversify to avoid mediocrity.

I play guitar. I play acoustic.

I make movies. I am a director. I am making a documentary about the life and tribulation of LGBT athletes.  My latest movie is almost done. I am a lesbian. I feel as a film maker I have a duty to help other LGBT people.

I have three kids. I play/or have kids that play soccer.

I lost a good friend.

I'm in book clubs and the PTA. My book club is not currently reading anything, it is on a break.

I do not discriminate against LGBT people.

[Speaker 1] I decided to take a creative writing class online to help me out with the suspense writing.

[Speaker 2] Good for you! I am impressed how driven you are.

[Speaker 1] Thanks! I'm trying. But for now I'm focusing more on the documentary I had mentioned to you. I've been meaning to ask you ... since you play soccer, do you know any LGBT athletes I could interview?

[Speaker 2] There is one person in my reading group that would most likely love to talk with you. Very smart with a big appreciation for the arts, but I am not sure if this person plays in a lot of group sports. I am assuming that matters?

[Speaker 1] I'd love to talk to them regardless! This documentary is about athletes, but I could always use their input and experiences in other stuff. Speaking of the reading group ... any idea when they plan to start back up?

[Speaker 2] We are hoping to start up soon, likely in a couple of weeks. The moderator recently had surgery, so we are waiting until she feels better to start the group up again. You should come to the next meeting, we have been wanting to read a suspense novel, but nobody know of a good one. I will give this person you contact information.

[Speaker 1] Ok sounds good. I would love to join. Also, I've meaning to ask how you've been coping. I know you lost your friend recently. I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't want to overstep by asking. I hope it's ok

[Speaker 2] It gets a little easier every day, but I suspect this is going to take some time. I forgot and called her the other day, only to realize her phone is still connected. It was nice hearing her voice, but it did bum me out. The kids are keeping me busy.

[Speaker 1] Again. I'm so sorry. I can't imagine. Do you mind if I ask what happened. Was she sick or was this a sudden death?

[Speaker 2] She had been sick for a long time... you would have never guessed though. She lived a full life right up to the time she had to be hospitalized. She was much stronger than I think I could be. How's your dad doing?

[Speaker 1] He's ok. We don't talk as much I'd like. I think he's still getting used my being a lesbian. He's very old school, and very religious, and is having a hard time accepting it. It's definitely strained out relationship but we're working through it slowly.

[Speaker 2] He'll come around eventually, he probably just doesn't know what to say or do. I am sure he's really proud of you, look at what you have accomplished! I was just thinking. My daughter has a soccer game soon and I think one of her teammates could be LGBT... you should come with us.

I play guitar. I play acoustic.

My father recovered from a heart attack recently. My father is very religious.  My relationship with my father is strained.

I have worked a little in the thriller and suspense movie genre. I am not good at writing suspense, but learning. I like to write. I take classes online. I am interested in suspense as a literary technique.

I enjoy reading and am interested in joining a reading group.

I have three kids. I play soccer. My daughter plays soccer.

I am a member of a reading group. I do not know anything about suspense novels.

My deceased friend was sick for a long time.

[Speaker 1] My father called, and we finally had a real heart to heart about how he feels about me coming out as a lesbian.  I really think we're going to work through this.

[Speaker 2] That is wonderful, I am sure that he will be open-minded and accept you for who you are. It might take some time to build up your relationship with him again.

[Speaker 1] I think he has made a lot of strides. I have to admit I was upset at his initial reaction, but it means a lot that he is trying to understand

[Speaker 2] I feel that sometimes religion can play a factor in whether a person is accepting of the LGBT community and since your father is very religious, it could make it even more difficult.

[Speaker 1] I think that is why it means so much to me that he is trying. That always bothered me about religion though. If it is about caring for people, why are some people so rabidly excluded?

[Speaker 2] There are so many factors of why people feel so negativity towards a group of people. I think older generations of people are not so accepting of people that are different than them.

[Speaker 1] I just will never understand why that happens and how people can be so hateful. I try not to let it upset me, but I can't help it

[Speaker 2] I completely agree, but since your father is recovering from a heart attack, its important not to stress him out too much. Would you agree?

[Speaker 1] But my sexuality should not stress him out, that is my point

[Speaker 2] Well, at this point in time, I think the best course of action is to let him slowly accept who you really are. Best not to try and force it.

[Speaker 1] I understand, I might be being a little too aggressive about it at times, I don't want to harm my dad

[Speaker 2] I completely agree, especially since he is recovering from a major heart attack.

[Speaker 1] Good afternoon, how are you?

[Speaker 2] I'm doing really well, how about you

[Speaker 1] I'd be better if my little sister stopped barging into my room.

[Speaker 2] I'm lucky then cause I haven't seen my brother in years

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, do you have other family near to you?

[Speaker 2] I don't sadly and I can't afford to travel to see them either but I have pets

[Speaker 1] I've a dog! She's a golden retriever named bella.

[Speaker 2] I'd like a dog but right now I've iguanas

[Speaker 1] Sis just came in again. I just want to finish my math homework!

[Speaker 2] Maybe you could train bella to read and help you finish your homework faster

[Speaker 1] That is a great idea! I wonder if she would love math like I do?

[Speaker 2] Wish I loved math, maybe I could budget effectively and not be so broke

[Speaker 1] I'm glad I do not need to worry about that yet.

[Speaker 2] It really is nice, even worth your sister barging into your room!

[Speaker 1] What else are you into?

[Speaker 2] I like animals and nature as a whole, how about you

I live with my little sister.
I have a golden retriever named bella.
I am in school.
I love math.

I have a brother.

I don't have a dog.  I have pet iguanas.

I don't like math.  I am poor.

I like animals and nature.

[Speaker 1] Do you ever go camping?

[Speaker 2] I love to go camping on my yearly vacation. It's quite cheap so it does fit in with my budget nicely.

[Speaker 1] That sounds nice. Just being out surrounded by nature sounds so relaxing. What got you into camping?

[Speaker 2] Yes it is. My brother and I always went camping with our parents when we were growing up. So I've just kind of followed the tradition. It's easy to keep it up.

[Speaker 1] You make camping sound so relaxing. I am sure I will try it in the future. Much cheaper than going to somewhere like Miami, for instance.

[Speaker 2] Yes, it really is. There's lots of full service camping sites too where you don't really have to survive off the land. Rather you can go to the nearby ammenities. Those are great if you don't have much experience.

[Speaker 1] Interesting. What kinds of amenities do they offer?

[Speaker 2] Well showers, usually some sort of entertainment, they'll have a store, and a restaurant. They try to theme them like the wilderness so you feel a bit more outdoors. But you feel like you have everything you need at the same time.

[Speaker 1] Seems like a good tradeoff between being immersed in nature yet keeping some modern day perks. Personally, if I'm going camping, I'd rather go all the way and pass on the modern day amenities.

[Speaker 2] That's understandable. But I think under a lot of circumstances it's nice to have the ammenities. It also helps meet other people on the trip so you can have more fun in a group. It's definitley better for the less experienced. Plus if an emergency happens it's possible to get help much sooner.

[Speaker 1] YEah, what you described is perfect for people that's a bit unsure about camping. It sort of designed to ease the into camping rather than throwing them into the deep end of pool so to speak.

[Speaker 2] Right. So where would you ideally like to go camping?

I live with my little sister.

I have a golden retriever named Bella.

I am in school. I love math.

I have never gone camping before. I would prefer to survive off the land.

I have a brother.

I don't like math.  I am poor.

I like animals and nature.I take a yearly vacation where I go camping. I have gone camping a lot.

[Speaker 1] Bella just tried to eat my homework! I wonder if she tried to read it?!

[Speaker 2] Are you serious or are you just practicing that line for your teacher, haha!!

[Speaker 1] Lol. Dog ate my homework doesn't work as an excuse any more. I've tried it. It was Geography homework, which isn't exactly my favorite subject.

[Speaker 2] Always worth a try, right? How is Bella doing, besides eating your homework of course.

[Speaker 1] She's doing fine. She's 3 now, so she's supposed to mellow out soon. How are your lizards?

[Speaker 2] The iguanas are doing great - I've been taking them out for little walks in the backyard and they really love getting some sun.  Can you believe they make leashes for iguanas?!

[Speaker 1] No, I've never see anyone walk their iguana. But I guess they need sunshine more than most other pets do. Could they outrun you if they got away?

[Speaker 2] I'm sure even if they couldn't outrun me they would be very hard to find.  They're very good at hiding, that is for sure!  How is your little sister doing?

[Speaker 1] She's kind of crabby. She's in 7th grade now, and I think she's struggling with a lot of things. I hated 7th and 8th grade.

[Speaker 2] That is a really tough and awkward age, I agree.  Hopefully once she is in high school things will even out.  Although, you just never know!! Maybe you two should join me camping next weekend.  Sometimes fresh air is what you need to turn your mood around.

[Speaker 1] Hmm, maybe that's not a bad idea. I suspect she'll say no because she wants to watch TV and go on Facebook all the time. I don't think my family has any camping supplies.

[Speaker 2] Well you don't need much if you'd like to live off the land! I've been camping for so long I'm sure I have extra things for you both.  I think Bella would really enjoy it.  And your sister may surprise you, sometimes getting somewhere that you don't have internet access really expands your mind.
