[Speaker 2] That sounds like a lot of fun. What are you knitting?

[Speaker 1] I am knitting a blanket in honor or my fave book pride and prejudice

[Speaker 2] Cool. Did you take notes in english class today?

[Speaker 1] Ll what do you mean. I'm the tutor I don't need to take notes

[Speaker 2] I was drawing during class so I was hoping to get some study notes.

[Speaker 1] Well that's your fault. I'm junna go barefoot in class tomorrow. Join me for notes

[Speaker 2] You are going barefoot?

[Speaker 1] Yep! Join me lets start a movement. No shoes no problem will be our tagline

My parents named me nicholas.

[Speaker 1] Hi there, how are you?

[Speaker 2] Fine and how can I help you?

[Speaker 1] Just bored and thought I would try to make a friend. Do you like comedies? I do.

[Speaker 2] Yes I liked it very much especially to draw away my hunger.

[Speaker 1] What are you hungry for? I'm a partner in a law office. You?

[Speaker 2] Sorry I meant anger when I need something and cannot get it.

[Speaker 1] I understand that. I workout when that happens. It helps keep my muscles toned.

[Speaker 2] But am a lazy ram shackle who likes sitting a lot.

[Speaker 1] I've no hair and beard but I could be lazy too.

[Speaker 2] Do you trim and shave all of them every time they grow or its natural?

[Speaker 1] Head is naturally bald, but I do trim my beard weekly.

[Speaker 2] I love keeping my hair long and average beards not too much of them on me.

[Speaker 1] Nice. In my profession I have to look good and dress to impress.

[Speaker 2] I see, am a business person and self employed managing other workers.

I like comedies.
I work in a law office.
I work out to help with my anger.
I am bald. I trim my beard weekly.

I like comedies.

I am lazy. I don't work out.

I wear my hear long.

[Speaker 1] I bought a new suit and shaved today.

[Speaker 2] A new suit. Ooh! What's the occasion?

[Speaker 1] You never need a special occasion for a new suit! Sometimes it's nice to just treat yourself, especially as I have to my appearance good for the law office. Do you not wear many suits?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I wear suits all the time. I have to look presentable for my employees.  You said you shaved. Did you shave your beard off completely?

[Speaker 1] No just a trim, if I shaved it off completely then the only hair I would have on my head would be my eye brows! That would look a bit silly on me. How long has your hair gotten now?

[Speaker 2] Yes, that would look weird. Never shave it off! My hair is past my shoulders now. I am debating cutting it, but I am being lazy about making the appointment.

[Speaker 1] Never put off a task that can be done in five minutes is what I always say! Thankfully I have my own trimmers, have you thought about just cutting it yourself?

[Speaker 2] I have thought about it, but I'm afraid I'll mess it up. It would probably be uneven and then I'd have to go somewhere to get it fixed.

[Speaker 1] That is always a risk, I'm sure your workers would find a messed up hair cut funny to look out! How many workers are you managing now

[Speaker 2] 9! It's becoming more work than I signed up for. Originally they gave me 6 people to manage and now I'm up to 9. Hopefully they will hire someone to help manage.

[Speaker 1] Like a co-manager? What about more money? Would that smooth things over in terms of your higher level of responsibilities?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, they mention hiring an assistant manager. That would help. If they paid me more I wouldn't mind the responsibility, but so far I haven't gottten a raise for the added employees.

I like comedies.

I like having long hair.

[Speaker 1] I wore my new suit to work and everyone loved it.

[Speaker 2] Nice. Is it a big departure form the suits you normally ware?

[Speaker 1] Yes, it was blue instead of black and had pinstsripes. I was so nervous, but they liked it.

[Speaker 2] That's cool! Sounds fun to me. Maybe I should do a little suit shopping. My wardrobe is a little stale.

[Speaker 1] You totally should. Even if you get one thing outside fo your comfort zone, you'll feel good.

[Speaker 2] I would imagine you look a little better in it than I would. I may have to adopt your workout schedule too.

[Speaker 1] Haha, sure I am especially a fan of boxing, as it's a good way to release anger. You could start out small with a pucnhing bag.

[Speaker 2] That an interesting idea. You find it really helps get things out? I have been a little frustrated lately.

[Speaker 1] Oh defnitely, it's amazing how cathartic it is. And it a safe way to vent frustrations. It especially helps after I've lost a court case.

[Speaker 2] I can see that. For the most part its managing people that makes me crazy. The crazy level goes up and down as the people change.

[Speaker 1] Lol, I hear that. My boss drives me crazy the most. Who is your kryptonite?

[Speaker 2] I get my kids into cooking at home. We make a lot of mexican dishes here.

[Speaker 1] How pleasant I do not cook because I am too tall to use anything in my kitchen

[Speaker 2] Oh my, never heard that before. Cooking and reading are my favorite.

[Speaker 1] Yeah it just is a pain because everything is made for average sized people.

[Speaker 2] Awe, that's bad. Too bad you can't change that.

[Speaker 1] What kind of dogs do you have?

[Speaker 2] A great dane. He roams the house like he owns it, but we both know I do!

[Speaker 1] Haha what is his name?

[Speaker 2] His name is korn after my favorite band haha

[Speaker 1] I love that band too!!

[Speaker 2] Sometimes I blast them when I swim in my pool. People don't like that

[Speaker 1] I can understand that. I like to play retro video games

[Speaker 2] Really? You should come join me for a swim. I love swimming

[Speaker 1] I love swimming too! I use to swim alot

[Speaker 2] Really? I've quite the vast collection of purple swimming suits

[Speaker 1] Yes, professionally but that was back in college. Why so many?

[Speaker 2] I love purple. Its my favorite

My name is Alex.

I have a cat.

I love the band Korn.

I like retro video games.

My name is Lucy.

I have dogs, one is a great dane.

My favorite band is Korn.

[Speaker 1] Guess what, I just got a membership with my local pool!

[Speaker 2] Wow! So you'll be able to spend even more time swimming.

[Speaker 1] Definitely! I am thinking about taking up teaching it too!

[Speaker 2] That would be very rewarding. What ages do you want to teach?

[Speaker 1] Hmmm, I think it would be good to get young kids interested.  That way maybe I can help them to get a swimming scholarship or something.

[Speaker 2] I think it is great to get them used to the water at a young age. It diminishes the chance of an accidental drowning.

[Speaker 1] That is very true.  Learning about the dangers of water at an early age is a good thing.  You know, with your pool you could teach a class. Have you considered it?

[Speaker 2] I have considered it but I don't know if I have the patience to teach other people's kids.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, it does take patience to be around kids.  Hey, does your dog swim?

[Speaker 2] Yes, he adores the water. Sometimes it is hard to get him to leave the pool.

[Speaker 1] Hahaha! I would love to see that! I have a cat as you know and he hates the water!

[Speaker 2] I'm not surprised lol. Cats that like the water are few and far between.

My name is Alex.

I love the band Korn.

I like retro video games.

I love swimming. I used to swim professionally in college. I just got a membership to my local pool. I am thinking about taking up teaching swimming. I want  to teach swimming to young kids.

I have a cat who hates water.

My name is Lucy.

I have dogs, one is a great dane.

My favorite band is Korn.

I have a house with pool. I love swimming. I have a collection of purple swimming suits. Purple is my favorite color. I have considered teaching swimming at my pool. I have a dog who loves swimming.

[Speaker 1] I talked to the managers at the pool about starting my own swimming lessons.

[Speaker 2] What did they say? Are they going to let you teach?

[Speaker 1] they asked to see me do a sample lesson. as a college swimmer i've done daily drills so i'm going to use some of those but in a fun game way

[Speaker 2] What age group were you thinking? I think it's fun with the little ones when you get them comfortable splashing around and ducking their heads under water.

[Speaker 1] i'm thinking all ages but mostly 6-12. i want to bring the joy of the world of water to the youth

[Speaker 2] That's a good age range. You can teach them the basics but they are old enough to be (somewhat) well-behaved.

[Speaker 1] for sure and i'm okay if they misbehave or are playful. i am a proud cat owner and am used to that michevouness. althought my cat wont join the swim lessons, he hates water

[Speaker 2] Very true. I'm sure the kids will love the lessons. When are you doing your sample lesson?

[Speaker 1] I am doing it tomorrow. We are going to play fish and minoes and then pool toy or pool boy to help teach breathing under water. would you ever be a lifeguard ot reach a swimming lesson

[Speaker 2] I'm a good swimmer but I don't have the CPR training to be a lifeguard. You'll have to let me know how it goes tomorrow.

[Speaker 1] maybe i'll do an adult group and allow cpr certification too. that way i can expand to all age groups

[Speaker 2] The broader the group, the more money you can make doing it. Very smart.

[Speaker 1] Wow sounds very nice I bet they're beautiful

[Speaker 2] I think so. I am very literal, so I guess it depends on your perspective.

[Speaker 1] Yea well its like fixing a plane, it takes hard work to be great

[Speaker 2] Yep. So, are you married?

[Speaker 1] Only to my vinyl and trying to fix this beautiful world we live in

[Speaker 2] Ahahah! Me neither. I've got a close relationship with a friend, but haven't told my parents.

[Speaker 1] Well maybe that will lead to something nice

[Speaker 2] My parents wo not be happy because he's the same sex.

[Speaker 1] Maybe they will you have just got to give them a chance and be patient

[Speaker 2] I am sure it will be rough for awhile. Especially with my father.

I like music.

I am not married.  I listen to vinyl records.

I play video games.

I like to sketch cartoons.

I am not married.  I am in a sort of secretive relationship. I am gay but I have not told my parents yet.

[Speaker 1] I got a call from an old friend who wants to have drinks tonight.  Would you and your partner care to join?

[Speaker 2] Unfortunately, I am a bit busy tonight. Where are you going for drinks?

[Speaker 1] Ah that's a shame, we would have a great time! What have you got planned for tonight? And we are heading to the rainbow bar and grill tonight in West Hollywood!

[Speaker 2] I got booked as a contract artist for some newspaper cartoons. I've been procrastinating on getting them done and they are due tomorrow. Is your friend anyone I know?

[Speaker 1] Ah that sounds good, hopefully the pay is better than last time HAHA. And no this is an old friend from back in college, I'm sure you guys would have got along brilliantly, maybe next time!

[Speaker 2] I'm bummed to miss out. Definitely next time. Have you heard any good new music recently? I've sort of been struggling with finding some new stuff to get into.

[Speaker 1] You know me, I'm much more of a classic guy. Listening to the old classics on vinyl, i haven't got much time for all this new modern music, not my taste! Your partner must know a few, he's very trendy up to date guy! How is he doing by the way, long time since I've seen him.

[Speaker 2] He is ok - he's been busy too. He's been frustrated with how quiet we have to be about things. I wish my family wasn't so closed minded.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I understand must be soo horrible, have you considered maybe telling your mother yet, maybe she might surprise you!

[Speaker 2] I am thinking of having one of my siblings broach the topic with them and see how they react. My hope is that I am wrong in my assumptions about them.

[Speaker 1] Well it goes without saying, but I wish you all the best. Whatever you decide just know I will always support your choices!

[Speaker 2] Thanks - I really appreciate that. How has the dating scene been going for you?

I play video games.

I am not married.  I am in a sort of secretive relationship. I am gay. I have a partner. My family are closed minded. My siblings know about my partner but my parents do not.

I am a contract artist. I draw newspaper cartoons. I like to sketch cartoons. I sometimes procrastinate.

I am having a hard time finding new music I like.

[Speaker 1] Any luck with finding new music?

[Speaker 2] I've been trying out different playlists online.  A lot of 80s music.  I sort of like that, although it doesn't inspire me while I draw.

[Speaker 1] No 80's music si the kind you get up and dance to. Have you tried a lo-fi playlist for drawing, it's so good for concentration and creativity.

[Speaker 2] I haven't tried that bu thanks for the suggestion; I'll give that a try.  What type of things do you do creatively when you're listening to lo-fi?

[Speaker 1] Usually write. I am not a super creative person, but I will write short stories for fun.

[Speaker 2] That's really cool.  I took a course on short stories in college.  It's a really underappreciated genre.  I read some great ones by Kafka, Chekov, Gogol, Poe, Twain--so fun and they don't take weeks to finish.

[Speaker 1] Exactly, it's just a fun outlet to pass the time. What the latest thing you've drawn?

[Speaker 2] I've been drawing some political cartoons about the media's relationship with the White House.  I'm not sure if they're any good.

[Speaker 1] I would love to see that. political cartoons are some of my favorites. What past president would you most like to do a cartoon about?

[Speaker 2] I like to be as iconoclastic as I can be, so I'd probably do something satirical about JFK or Lincoln.  Both could get me into trouble but I feel like that's the jester's job.

[Speaker 1] It certainly is, someone's feeling will always be hurt, you can't let that stop you. What video games are you currently playing?

[Speaker 2] I just finished God of War for the Playstation 4.  I know I'm a little late but I still enjoyed it.  It wasn't my favorite game of the generation but it was a good game and sets up an interesting world for sequels.

[Speaker 1] My love the color blue.. It matches my mood.

[Speaker 2] My favorite color is white just like snow

[Speaker 2] That is good that you transitioned why would you feel blue?

[Speaker 1] Just lots of different emotions to deal with. I'm only 20.

[Speaker 2] Yes understandable but you have to be happy with who you are

[Speaker 1] I totally understand.  Without my grants and scholarships I would feel the same way.  Say, do you ever see anything interesting at the hotel?

[Speaker 1] Oh, well that's good I guess.  This pizza is really good. Hint, hint. You should go get you some.

[Speaker 2] Lol. Speaking of pizza. Where do you stand on the pineapple on pizza debate?

[Speaker 1] I am against it. I want my pizza more like a meal and less like a desert.  You?

[Speaker 2] I look for any excuse to eat pineapple as it is my favorite fruit.

[Speaker 1] Oh, lol! Sorry!  I like pineapple too though, just in a fruit salad with cool whip!

[Speaker 1] I've got a couple coming up. I just spoke with the local zoo owner, and he's going to let me film some zebras this weekend. Maybe you could do some animal inspired makeup?

[Speaker 2] That could be cool! Maybe some zebra stripes on the eyes or something?

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah! That would be a good idea. Might be useful for people during Halloween or something. How many subscribers do you have on your youtube channel now?

[Speaker 2] I've got over 2 thousand at the moment.  Do you post your videos?

[Speaker 1] That's really good! I haven't yet, I'm so bad with technology. Maybe you could show me how to set up a wildlife video channel next time we hang out?

[Speaker 2] Absolutely I will! You have a lot of wonderful videos that people should see!

[Speaker 1] I took a cool one of a bear I saw in the woods behind my house last weekend.  I was worried it would get my rabbits, but luckily the rabbits are very fast.

[Speaker 2] You had a bear behind your house?  Wow! What kind was it? What did it look like and do?

[Speaker 1] It was a black bear. It was kind of trying to get birdseed out of my birdfeeder, and just rummaged around my trashcan. It was sort of sniffing where the rabbits live, but then it left. It was only there about ten minutes.

[Speaker 1] You said your dad is a pilot. Have you ever thought of doing a makeup tutorial on a plane?

[Speaker 2] I could, I've done one on a train before. But the problem would be the background noise

[Speaker 1] thats so true. what if you did it and then later redid the audio from home and it would like like the plane but without the background noise

[Speaker 2] I could but I don't want it to look to doctored.

[Speaker 1] thats true it may mess with your plans. I guess you can still fly and not do a video on it.do you have any upcoming flights?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I have a trip to Chile coming up. Do you have any holidays planned?

[Speaker 1] I dont travel much. i have so many animals here that need me, and i love exploring the wildlife near me

[Speaker 2] Very true, what kind of wildlife is near you?

[Speaker 1] we have mountains and rivers, so a lot like chille. but we also have rabbits and birds around the trees and woods

[Speaker 2] That sounds peaceful. Do you plan to get anymore animals?

[Speaker 1] i never plan on it,. but if someone brings anything to the shelter i'll do my best to care for it.

[Speaker 2] Yes that is true I work from home

[Speaker 1] Then it sounds like you love cooking.

[Speaker 2] I have! I recently made a pumpkin cheesecake for my mothers birthday it was the most delicious thing i think i have ever tasted

[Speaker 1] That sounds amazing! I love eating cheesecake but not baking it, it never turns out right! Did your mother enjoy it too?

[Speaker 2] she did, she told me she would have to run an extra three mile for a week after eating it because she kept going back for more

[Speaker 1] Haha, that's too funny. Definitely sounds like it was worth it. Maybe I could join her for a run one day. I've been so busy with the kids lately, but want to start training for a 5k next summer.

[Speaker 2] oh that sounds great! my mom has done several 5k's, she currently training for a full marathon and I think she would love to have someone along to run with her

[Speaker 1] Wonderful! I'll definitely reach out to her about that. How do you like working from home? I've been considering starting something part-time, but would prefer to do it remotely.

[Speaker 2] its nice but sometimes I miss having the social interaction of actually being in the office around other people everyday, Im considering seeing if I can go back in person to work maybe just one or two days out of the week

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's a good compromise. I guess it is difficult to become so isolated. I think doing it part-time would work for me though. What do you do?

[Speaker 2] I think its different for everyone, i definitely dont want to discourage you. I work for an insurance company supporting our customer service reps

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I hope I like it. I have some pretty serious allergies so it would be much easier for me to work from home and not have to deal with possible triggers. I hope you get to do some in-person days!

[Speaker 2] I think thats a great idea

I like organised running. I want to train for a 5k.

I have serious allergies.

I love cooking, but not baking. I like eating cheesecake but not baking it.

I have kids.  I am a stay-at-home mother. I am considering doing a job part-time. I like doing jobs remotely.

[Speaker 2] I work remptely too but i am not enjoying it

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry to hear that. I am an introvert, so it works for me. When do you think you'll get to go back?

[Speaker 2] I am nit sure yet but i have started working on it.  what kind of alergies do you have?

[Speaker 1] Mostly pollen, a couple of drug realted ones as well, and bees. The pollen one really kicks my butt in the spring time.

[Speaker 2] so sorr to hear that, working from home makes that a little better right

[Speaker 1] Some, not a lot. Pollen comes into the house all sorts of ways, I think I just need to move somewhere where it's not as bad. Do you have any allergies?

[Speaker 2] no i dont, i am so glad i dont

[Speaker 1] That's good. Have you baked anything else good recently?

[Speaker 1] Yes, we are planning for extended family to go so close to 20 people. We rented a large house a few years ago with the same people and it was a ton of fun to all be in one place for a whole week. Have you ever been to Disneyland?

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, that is very exciting! How is your niece doing now that she has had her baby?

[Speaker 2] She is doing really well, aside from being tired.  I think that is a common thing for new moms.  Do you have any nieces or nephews?

[Speaker 2] wow i have been to disneyworld but not disneyland. I think that is such a great idea, if I were to get them gifts it would be a winnie the pooh shirt and stuffed animal together. Or maybe tiger. Do you think they would like that?

[Speaker 1] I think they will like them as Winnie the Pooh and Tigger the Tiger are classic, popular characters. Who are your favorite Disney characters?

[Speaker 2] eyorke is my favoriate. I like the mystery of never knowing what is wrong with him. who are your favoriates

[Speaker 1] I'm obsessed with the Lion King hyenas (Banzai, Shenzi and Ed) as well as the twin eels from Little Mermaid (Flotsam and Jetsam). Looking for Disney products with them are like finding a needle in haystack! When are you planning for your next Disney trip?

[Speaker 2] I'm not going to go, just my neice. but lion king is such a great idea. I'll get her a lion stuffed animal as a gift. While im not taking her to disney i will take her to hersheys park when she visits me in pennsylvania

[Speaker 1] I'd rather not. Do you have a belt in karate?

[Speaker 2] Oh. I'm a brown belt. That made me so sad.

[Speaker 1] Oh I am sorry about that, why are you sad?

[Speaker 2] You didn't want to fight me.

[Speaker 1] I cannot fight anymore. Nowadays I prefer reading quietly

[Speaker 2] Would you read to me? I would like that

[Speaker 1] Sure, what kind of books do you like?

[Speaker 2] No, I want you to read your favorite book to me.

[Speaker 1] I don't have any favorite books, I just read when I've nothing to do.

[Speaker 2] Oh. I am sure my paps has a favorite I'll ask him..

[Speaker 1] Do you live with your father and any other members of your family?

[Speaker 2] My paps and his wife. My grandma.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a nice family, what do you do for work?

[Speaker 2] I just go to school. My paps cares more about his mushrooms than me

I am a bartender.
I like reading.
I dont have any favourite books.

I am a brown belt in karate.

I live with my grandparents.

I go to school. My grandfather cares about his mushrooms.

[Speaker 1] Heyy how are your grandparents?

[Speaker 2] Hi, great thanks. My grandmother is doing really well, doing lots of dancing to stay fit and grandfather has been growing various exotic mushrooms, im not sure all of them are legal if i am quite honest!

[Speaker 1] Lol! Well that's good to hear! It's great that they are keeping busy and engaged with life and all that.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, i feel like they are younger at heart than me. They are certainly open to enjoying themselves. My grandma was saying shed like to go to Burning Man this year if she can!

[Speaker 1] Okay, you've lost me there. What's Burning Man?

[Speaker 2] Burning man is a festival in the Nevada desert.. Its quite famous and is kind of a bit lawless! A lot of big EDM performers attend there.

[Speaker 1] Look, I know I tend bar and all that and should know everything but I admit I don't lol.  What's EDM?

[Speaker 2] Electronic Dance Music. Its all quite noisy, electronic with lots of drum sections to dance to. Its not something i am particularly in to, but my Grandma loves it.

[Speaker 1] She does?! How did she find out about all of that?

[Speaker 2] Internet mostly, shes very in investigating things, especially anything quite new as she doesn't like the idea of being left out, just for being older.  She is a very interesting lady, thats for sure.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like it! I think that's great that she does all that.

[Speaker 2] I may have to go to Burning Man with her if she goes, i feel like id want to look out for her, but she's really more streetwise than me in reality.

I am a brown belt in karate. I go to school.

I live with my grandparents. My grandfather cares about his mushrooms. My grandmother dances and my grandfather grows mushrooms.

I think my grandma is interesting. I feel older at heart than my grandparents.

I don't like EDM but my grandma likes it. She is taking me to Burning Man the festival in Neveda.

I am not very streetwise.

[Speaker 1] When is Burning Man taking place?

[Speaker 2] Sometime this summer. I am not too excited, but I don't want my grandma to go by herself. Maybe you can recommend a good book for me to read while she is partying it up.

[Speaker 1] I think "The Notebook" would be a great romance book for you to read. Well, you should head to Las Vegas as the city never sleeps!

[Speaker 2] I thought about visiting Las Vegas, but it's too far away from the festival sadly. Is that where you bartend?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I bartend at MGM hotel in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, it's about a 10 hour drive from Black Rock Desert (where Burning Man takes place) to Las Vegas. I will see if I can get a day off and maybe meet you there!

[Speaker 2] You would be a lifesaver if you could! I'll have my grandmother bring extra mushrooms in case you're into that kind of thing! LOL

[Speaker 1] I would love that, thank you! I eat mushrooms several times a week. Organic mushrooms in supermarkets are not cheap. How long will your trip be?

[Speaker 2] I don't think we're talking about the same kind of mushrooms. They grow EDM mushrooms. We are flying in from Colorado, so the trip is only a few hours. I wanted to drive down but my grandfather wants the vehicle for transportation of his mushrooms.

[Speaker 1] Ah cool. Will you guys be going straight home after Burning Man? or will you be extending your stay after Burning Man?

[Speaker 2] We are going straight home. Have you ever been to a Burning Man concert?

[Speaker 1] I watched the first ever Burning Man in 1986. I hardly remember it as I was only 3 years old then.

[Speaker 2] I was also born in 1983!

[Speaker 2] I am awesome! How are you?

[Speaker 1] I am good. Just got done eating some spaghetti.

[Speaker 2] Sweet! I am jamming out to the beetles! My favorite!

[Speaker 1] I like music okay, but I love to read.

[Speaker 2] Reading is an awesome hobby. I'm into collecting stamps!.

[Speaker 1] Where do you live? I am in california.

[Speaker 2] I am a texas gal! And I am all about that bass, because I play it.

[Speaker 1] Oh cool. I just bought a chevy camaro last week.

[Speaker 2] Nice! Can you recommend any good music? I need to add to my large cd collection.

[Speaker 1] I'm not that in to music.

[Speaker 2] Bummer. Hey I've to go! Talk to you later.

[Speaker 1] It was nice chatting with you.

[Speaker 2] On second thought, I thought I was done, but apparently I am not.

I dont like music too much. I love to read.

I live in california.

I have a chevy camaro.

I love the Beatles.

I have a large cd collection. i also collect stamps.

I am from texas. i play bass.

[Speaker 1] Hey texas girl. Have you found any interesting stamps?

[Speaker 2] I've found a couple for my collection. Would you like to hear about them?

[Speaker 1] Absolutely! And tell me how you got into stamp collecting in the first place

[Speaker 2] My dad used to collect stamps and took me with him. I've managed to find quite a few related to famous authors? Who are your favourites? I might have something you'll like.

[Speaker 1] I quite like Jack Kerouac, something about the stories of travels around the country. That's awesome that you have that connecting with your dad through stamps.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it's a nice hobby to have with him. I may not have something for Jack Kerouac, but I definitely have some fun stamps from around the world.

[Speaker 1] Where's the most exotic place you have a stamp from? and do you have a favorite?

[Speaker 2] I have a really cool stamp from New Zealand with a Kiwi on it which I think is my favourite travel stamp, but the most exotic would have to be the lemur from Madagascar

[Speaker 1] That's really cool! I ought to start collecting something again. I used to collect magnets whenever we went on holiday, maybe I should get back into it, might need a bigger fridge to stick them to, lol

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a great idea. Stamp collecting is pretty easy to start with but magnets sound much more fun to collect. My mum collects those and we have them all over our fridge and freezer

[Speaker 1] Fun! Collecting must be in your genes then! Do you have your stamps displayed anywhere? Are they organised?

[Speaker 2] I like to keep them pretty organised in folders. I put a few of my favourites in frames and have them above my desks, but the really rare ones I try to keep away from sunlight and potential damage in a cupboard in plastic folders

I live in california.

I have a chevy camaro.

I like the author Jack Kerouac. I like traveling.

I want to start collecting stamps. I stopped collecting magnets but I wish to start again.

I love the Beatles.

I am from texas. i play bass.

I have a large cd collection. I also collect stamps. I got into stamp collecting through my father. I have many valuable stamps of famous authors. I have stamps from around the world. I have a stamp from New Zealand with a Kiwi on it and it is my favourite. My most exotic stamp is from Madagascar, it has a lemur. I am an organised person when it comes to my stamps. I take pride in my stamps and try to keep them untarnished.

I am interested in magnet collecting. My mom collects magnets.

[Speaker 1] I just found a whole box filled with magnets I collected when i was young!

[Speaker 2] Great, what kind of designs are on the magnets?

[Speaker 1] A bunch of different animals. I also have a collection of state flag magnets. I think I counted 28 of them.

[Speaker 2] Do you think you will have a theme for your magnet collecting going forward?

[Speaker 1] I have not decided. I think it would be cool to collect magnets from around the world.

[Speaker 2] I can send you one from Texas if you want?

[Speaker 1] That would be sweet. Have you bought any new stamps?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have. Plus I got a couple sent to me from my cousin in Australia.

[Speaker 1] What's on them? Are they valuable?

[Speaker 2] It's a commemorative stamp for the anniversary of First World War. So there should be a bit of value in them.

[Speaker 1] Send me a picture of it.

[Speaker 2] I will. Have you started reading a new book?


I have a missing pinky toe.
I enjoy swimming.

I enjoy writing.

I hate my old job.

I want to be an author.

[Speaker 1] Hi, I am randell I have 4 bearded collies

[Speaker 2] Hi randell. I am working on my first book. Hoping to be published

[Speaker 1] That's awesome! Good luck. My kid read green eggs and ham and reciting the lines

[Speaker 2] I could translate that book into german. Its my current job

[Speaker 1] Awesome. Do you like to swim? Because like to swim

[Speaker 2] Not really. Do you swim competitively?

[Speaker 1] No more like as an exercise thing

[Speaker 2] Cool. What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] I'm an electronics technician.

[Speaker 2] Do you fix computers?

[Speaker 1] In some ways I can depending how extensive the damage is.

[Speaker 2] Do you like it? I was never that into my career so I quit

[Speaker 1] It pays the bills and puts food on the table.

[Speaker 2] I wanted to find my passion that's why I write

[Speaker 1] That is awesome keep up with your passion. It will be satisfying in the end

[Speaker 2] I'm hoping to find success before the end of the year!

I am Randell. I have 4 bearded collies.

I like to swim. I am not a professional swimmer.

I am an electronics technician.

I can fix computers.

I am working on my first book.

I work as translator. I can speak german. I quit my job. My passion is to write.

I do not really like to swim.

[Speaker 1] This morning I brought one of my bearded collie to the veterinarian.

[Speaker 2] What was the reason for the visit

[Speaker 1] She has not been feeling well.  Her skin is irritated, and her fur is falling out.

[Speaker 2] That's terrible, I'm sorry to hear that.  Did they give you a treatment to help her get better?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I am not clear on the details, but the medication seems to be working.  How is your writing going?

[Speaker 2] Awesome, I'm glad to hear that.  I'm sure she will improve soon!  My writing has not been going great recently, to be honest.  Struggling to get things exactly write.  I find that with time I always come around and am able to write again, though!  How about you, how has work been going?

[Speaker 1] I wish I could be like you and quit my job to pursue my dream.  My job has become a drag.  Have you found it to be worth it to chase a dream?

[Speaker 2] Time will tell, I have made some progress on the book.  I think it's going slower because I spend the time to revise.  I have been having an issue with my computer where the backspace doesn't always work.

[Speaker 1] That should be pretty easy to fix.  You can try taking the key cap off and checking to see if you can extract the switch.

[Speaker 2] Cool, I will give that a try.  Maybe it's stuck from crumbs or something.

[Speaker 1] I see that all the time.  It is very difficult to clean around the key caps.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I see now from what you have said, it was the switch and also a few crumbs.

I am Randell. I have 4 bearded collies.

I am an electronics technician. I can fix computers. I am unsatisfied with my current job.

One of my bearded collies is sick and now needs medication for their sickness.

I worked as translator. I can speak german. I quit my job. My passion is to write.

I do not really like to swim.

I love to write but I find it struggling at times. I am writing my first book.

[Speaker 1] How has your writing been going?

[Speaker 2] I am struggling with writers block, I think it's because I'm too stressed about money to write.

[Speaker 1] Yeah i get taht i'm at my job and wish i could quit but cant because i need the money. what are you trying to write about?

[Speaker 2] I am writing a young adult fiction novel.

[Speaker 1] thats pretty cool. unless you have a swimmer or dog owner i may not be of much help fixing the writing block, but if you have a kid with a sick dog, boy could i tell your details

[Speaker 2] I actually am trying to think of a name for a dog in my book. What is your dogs names?

[Speaker 1] I have two dogs there names are Marg and Rita, get it? margarita is my favorite drink

[Speaker 2] That's very clever! Would you mind if I used their names in book?

[Speaker 1] I think that would be great, it would actually bring me such great joy given marg is unhealthy and i would feel comfor knowig she was playing with sticks and joy in your book

[Speaker 2] I would love to honor her in that way. Maybe I'll include a dedication to her also!

[Speaker 1] that is beyond kind, well it sounds like maybe your writers block is over

[Speaker 2] Yes, I think this helped. You really inspired me with your love for your dog.


I like collecting rocks.

I love huge paintings.

I like collectible dragon ball z figures.

I love zumba.

I love the smell of beans.

I try to limit how much I eat.

I've a golden retriever puppy.

I whine a lot.

I hate paying my bills.

I don't have a job and sit on the couch all day.

I like earth.

I am artistic.

I enjoy collecting from one of my favorite shows.

I enjoy getting a good dance cardio workout.

I like to cook different foods.

I'm on a diet.

I've a new young dog who is yellow and likes to retrieve things.

I often complain.

I'm in tight budget.

Being unemployed leaves me sitting in my house all the time.

[Speaker 1] Don't mind me just admiring my huge rock collection! Hi

[Speaker 2] Hi! I just adopted a new puppy and he likes to take all my attention.

[Speaker 1] Puppies are so needy, unlike rocks. That's why I only deal with inanimate objects

[Speaker 2] Yeah, but they're good company... Even if they can be a big money investment.

[Speaker 1] Did you get a poodle? No, let me guess... A chihuahua?

[Speaker 2] No way! Too small! I like bigger dogs. A golden retriever

[Speaker 1] So cute, you should name her... Crystal my favorite rock!

[Speaker 2] I named him rory.... I like doctor who.

[Speaker 1] Bah, whatever. Do you collect things, ever? Like perhaps little figurines?

[Speaker 2] I used to, not so much any more. Do you collect a lot of things?

[Speaker 1] I loooooove collecting all sorts of things, including dragon ball z bobble heads

[Speaker 2] I would rather sit on the couch all day then collect that. To each their own

I don't have much interest in doctor who.

I collect dragon z bobble heads.

I just adopted a new puppy, it's a goldren retriever. I enjoy having company. I invested a lot of money into my puppy. I prefer bigger dogs.

I like doctor who.

[Speaker 1] Hey how are things with your new golden retriever puppy?

[Speaker 2] It's so good, I should have adopted a dog long time ago. He is very smart but as you can imagine very messy as well. I need to get used to cleaning after him.

[Speaker 1] That's awesome! They are a lot of responsibility you will see it but they also can give you quite a bit of love. What did you name your golden retriever?

[Speaker 2] You are right, I can see it already how much work goes into having a dog. But as you said, they bring a lot of love. He is so cute when I get home from work, his genuine happiness. I named him Rocky.

[Speaker 1] I am so happy for you! That is amazing. What else did you buy for him since getting him?

[Speaker 2] OMG, until I got him I had no idea how many things you can buy for a dog, or any pet actually. There are hundreds of things you can find, incredible. I bought him his nice and expensive dog house for the garden, some toys to play with. Carrier for the car etc. etc.

[Speaker 1] Oh nice! sounds like spent a lot of money! I suppose since you used to collect things, now you are on a misson to collect things for the dog. HAHA

[Speaker 2] LOL, something like that. I spent way more than I expected. But when I see his cute little eyes I just want the best for him. Maybe I will have to start selling my collections to pay for the puppy stuff.

[Speaker 1] AND THAT'S THE WAY THE NEWS GOES! What did you collect before hand?

[Speaker 2] I used to collect teddy bears when I was little, i had like 60 at one point. Later it was mainly stamps, I have a couple of thousands at home probably. They might be worth some money, I need to get them valued.

[Speaker 1] I can tell you from Experience it will cost quite a bit of money to get them certified just be prepared to drop some cash when you want to do it even though it does increase the value quite a bit when you go to sell them

[Speaker 2] It will be probably worth it, over the years I spent quite a bit of money on them so quite a few should be worth a bit of money. My grandparents always used to buy me quite expensive ones for birthdays.

I collect rocks. I prefer inanimate objects. My favorite rock is crystals. I collect dragon z bobble heads.

I just adopted a new puppy called Rocky, it's a goldren retriever. I enjoy having company. I invested a lot of money into my puppy. I prefer bigger dogs.

I like doctor who.

I own a large collection. I collected teddy bears and stamps while little. I carried on collecting in adult life as well. I use to collect things, but not anymore.

I have a garden where I live. I have a personal car.

[Speaker 1] Have you managed to appraise your stamp collection?

[Speaker 2] I haven't yet. I couldn't part with them even if they were worth a lot.

[Speaker 1] I hear you. I would have a hard time giving up my rock crystals. How is Rocky doing?

[Speaker 2] Rocky is great. We just celebrated his fifth birthday.

[Speaker 1] He must be so big now! Does he leave your garden alone?

[Speaker 2] He does dig in it from time to time, I have to keep an eye out for him.

[Speaker 1] That's probably the main reason why I prefer inanimate objects...I don't have to worry about my property getting disturbed by anybody but myself. How is your garden doing, by the way?

[Speaker 2] You could always have a rock garden! The winter was hard on my roses, they aren't blooming as well as I hoped.

[Speaker 1] I love that idea! I hope your roses recover as spring continues. I know how hard you have worked on them.

[Speaker 2] I do too. The rest of my garden seems to be doing well. You should come see it during the spring!

[Speaker 1] I will! I look forward to seeing your garden and Rocky.

[Speaker 2] Do you have any dogs?

My favorite color is purple.

I love to swim, and began at a young age.

I'm a female.

I'm a hippie.

I have two tattoos.
I love to recycle.

I have a couple of paintings on my body.

I hate throwing out plastic.

[Speaker 1] Hello. How are you doing tonight?

[Speaker 2] Hi! I am good, thanks, how are you?

[Speaker 1] I'm good. Just thinking about painting my room purple. How about you?

[Speaker 2] Thinking about getting another tattoo. I already have two

[Speaker 1] Awesome! What you think about getting?

[Speaker 2] Maybe the recycling logo? Since recycling is my thing

[Speaker 1] Nice. Maybe I should get a small swimmer tattoo since I love swimming.

[Speaker 2] That would be so cool!

[Speaker 1] Yes. I think you talked me into it. I have swam since I was three.

[Speaker 2] Wow! I am more of a just driving person, haha. I drive a big blue van

[Speaker 1] Should be in nascar. Better than a masters in education.

[Speaker 2] I might be too much of a hippie for either, haha

[Speaker 1] Must be a fun lifestyle then. Could teach me a thing or two.

[Speaker 2] Whats your lifestyle like?

[Speaker 1] Typical female educator. Get hit on a lot by teenage boys. Its awkward.

[Speaker 2] Geez, that must make work awkward sometimes

I like swimming. I have swam since I was three.

I am a female teacher.

I have two tattoos.
I like recycling.
I have a blue van.

[Speaker 1] So have you gotten your tattoo yet?

[Speaker 2] Yea, I just got my second one on my ribs.  It's a heart, but gosh did it hurt!  Do you have any tattoos?

[Speaker 1] No, I don't. I am too afraid of the pain! Do you plan on getting anymore?

[Speaker 2] Probably not, but you never know!  I only want ones that are really meaningful to me.  For now I'm happy with the ones that I have.  My other tattoo is a cross.

[Speaker 1] I can understand that. I think tattoos are cool! What other fun things have you done recently?

[Speaker 2] It's been really cold out, but I like to go outside for walks on the milder days.  How about you?

[Speaker 1] I like walking, but I really enjoy swimming! It has been too cold to swim outside, so I have been swimming inside at a fitness center. Do you like to swim?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I love swimming, but I only get to swim in the summer because I live near the ocean.  Where do you swim when it's warmer?

[Speaker 1] Mostly in outdoor pools because of the convenience. I also enjoy swimming in the ocean though! Plus, we have a beautiful lake nearby. Do you only swim in the ocean?

[Speaker 2] Mostly. Sometimes I go to my friend's pool but the ocean is my favorite!

[Speaker 1] Oh lucky! I have always wanted to have my own pool or a friend with one. How often do you swim?

[Speaker 2] Probably about 3 times a week during the summer.  I'm so lucky that I live so close to the ocean.  Sometimes the rip tides get pretty bad though, so I have to be careful.  And yes, it's great having a friend with a pool. It's a saltwater pool too, so it doesn't dry out my skin.

I am a female teacher.

I do not have tattoos. I think tattoos are cool.

I like to walk and swim. I swim at a fitness center. I have swam since I was 3.

I live near the lake. I want to have my own pool.

I like recycling.

I have a blue van.

I have two tattoos, one is a heart on ribs. I have a cross tattoo.

I like to go for walks. I love to swim. I live near the ocean. The ocean is my favorite. My friend has a salt water pool so it does not dry out my skin.

[Speaker 1] I took kids to the beach for a field trip and decided that I wanted to get a tattoo of a seashell and am looking for a recommendation?

[Speaker 2] I think conch shells look really cool.  Or because you're a swimmer you could get one with a swimmer swimming out of a clam shell.  That's the thing about tattoos: your imagination is the only limit.

[Speaker 1] Thanks for your suggestions. You have a great taste for beach related tattoos. Have you been swimming in the ocean recently?

[Speaker 2] Unfortunately I haven't.  It's been a little chilly, but more than that I've mostly been in my garage, cleaning it out.  Boy is it a mess.  It's getting better though!

[Speaker 1] It's going to warm up soon, so there's something to look forward to! Maybe you can join me for a swim at my fitness center some time this month while waiting for the weather to warm up. I have some free guest passes.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, that would be fantastic.  How long have you been a member of the fitness center and how do you usually use it?

[Speaker 1] I have only been a member for 3 months -- right after New Year's Day, I made a resolution to lose weight mainly through swimming. I love swimming at lakes but as it was still too cold, I decided to join a fitness center to do my swimming exercise.

[Speaker 2] Good for you!  My resolution was to clean out my garage, recycle as much of the old junk as I could, and stop bringing anything new into it unless it was really needed.  I haven't made a ton of progress but I still have most of the year to go!

[Speaker 1] Have the things you recycled brought a decent amount of money?

[Speaker 2] Oh, I don't get paid for any of the recycling.  But my recycling center will take electronic devices, metal, plastics, glass, even clothes.  Just about everything can be reused nowadays. I don't need to get paid when I feel so good knowing that it's going to be reused.

[Speaker 1] That's good that you are willing to donate everything. I have recently being selling my unused stuff on Facebook and Ebay as I'm saving up to build my own pool inside my house. See you this weekend at the fitness center!

[Speaker 2] I look forward to it.  And with all that money you're making selling stuff online, you can treat me to lunch afterwards!  (The indoor pool can wait!)


I like food.

I like hip hop.

I love pop music.

Playing a musical instrument is one of my past times.

[Speaker 1] Fun good tips and spare time l am in a band

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, that must be fun. Nirvana is my favorite but I like all

[Speaker 1] Drake is better though some rap artist is still good

[Speaker 2] That's true, what kind of band are you in

[Speaker 1] Just like to beat on the drums to ease my mind

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! Glad you are well rested

[Speaker 1] I am glad you are glad. Have any pets?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have a dog. Do you?

[Speaker 1] I have a cat. He is a being a jerk right now.

[Speaker 2] My mother watches my grandmother. I am glad that the dog is there

[Speaker 1] So what do you do for fun?

My dad is indian.
I love natural colors.
My parent came from the mediterranean.

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

[Speaker 2] Hi there! I am good. How are you?

[Speaker 1] Okay, I am trying to eat healthy, but it is so hard. Pork is my weakness.

[Speaker 2] That would be hard for me! I really enjoy cooking.

[Speaker 1] I do too, I'd love to be a vegetarian.

[Speaker 2] I used to be! Six years then I was pregnant craved meat.

[Speaker 1] Meat is amazing, lol. Bacon is my downfall.

[Speaker 2] Yes! Bacon is life! Lol!

[Speaker 1] It sure is. I do not like veggies at all

[Speaker 2] My dad is from india so we eat a lot of indian dishes.

[Speaker 1] I have never had indian food.

[Speaker 2] It is really good! My mom grew up in greece.

[Speaker 1] I'm an american and so are my parents.

[Speaker 2] Where are you? I live in florida. I love to swim too!

[Speaker 1] I am in vegas with my husband at a police softball tourney.

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun! I hope they win

I have never eaten Indian food.

I am American. My parents are American.

I am in Las Vegas. I am married to a man.

I like cooking, swimming.

I was a vegetarian for six years. I was pregnant.

I like bacon.

My dad is from India. I eat a lot of Indian food. I think Indian food is good. My mother is from Greece.

I live in Florida.

[Speaker 1] My husband took me took an Indian restaurant. We both loved our dishes!

[Speaker 2] Do they have vegetarian food?  I would like to try Indian food.

[Speaker 1] They did have some purely vegetarian dishes. I had some pork dish with potatoes and some veggies and a sauce. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it.

[Speaker 2] It sounds good.  Perhaps you can comment on yelp about your experience to help others and the business.

[Speaker 1] I usually don't do that, but maybe I should. There are so many restaurants here in Vegas, it's hard for them to stand out. I suppose you have the same thing in Florida with all the tourists.

[Speaker 2] I am sure that there are a few here. I have not been that adventurous.  I am always hesitant to try new food.

[Speaker 1] I'm usually the same. Give me good ol' American food! You cook, right? What kind of stuff do you like to make?

[Speaker 2] Yes.  I cook simple things because I have no time.

[Speaker 1] I can understand that. My husband probably cooks more than I do.

[Speaker 2] My dad is from India but he likes American food and thinks that Indian food is too spicy.   He came to the US when he was only five.

[Speaker 1] Interesting. That must be challenging, moving to a new country as a child. But I guess it was before he was going to school.

[Speaker 2] Yes.  I am going to look for a good Indian restaurant in my area.  Perhaps I should use yelp to find a good one.

I try to eat healthy. I like meat, pork, bacon. I do not like vegetables. I have never eaten Indian food. I like Indian food.

I am American. My parents are American. I am in Las Vegas. I have a husband.

I don't cook as much as my husband does.

I like cooking, swimming.

I was a vegetarian for 6 years. I like bacon. I was pregnant.

My dad is from India and came to the US when he was 5.I eat a lot of Indian food. I think Indian food is good. My mother is from Greece.

I live in Florida. I am timid in nature.

I can cook if I have time.

[Speaker 1] Do they have a lot of Indian restaurants in Florida?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, they have a fairt amount. Florida gets a bad rap, but it is diverse here. What about in Vegas?

[Speaker 1] Las Vegas has a plethora of restaurants; in my opinion, it really rivals New York City in terms of the number of restaurants and types of cuisines you can try.  The buffets alone are exceptional in providing a vast array of food options!  What types of food do you like to cook at home?

[Speaker 2] I like cooking Mexian or Italian, but I will try my hand at almost anything.

[Speaker 1] I love Italian food...pasta is one of my favorite things to prepare.  It's very filling, and I can get away with not needing to include vegetables.

[Speaker 2] Lol yes, although have you tried zoodles? Not as good as normal noodles, but not bad either.

[Speaker 1] I've seen zoodles, and some of my friends have tried them...especially with their kids (I apparently eat like a child, LOL)...but I haven't tried them myself.  Which vegetables are used for zoodles/

[Speaker 2] Zuccini is what I have seen, but maybe there are other types.

[Speaker 1] I'll have to look into it.  I really should try to eat a bit healthier...it's just hard when I haven't found any healthy foods that I really like.

[Speaker 2] It is super hard. Maybe just start by eating what you like but subbing in one healthy thing at a time.

[Speaker 1] That's a good suggestion.  Hey, how is your dad doing?  You haven't mentioned him in a while.

[Speaker 2] He's great, not much to say really. He's just living his life working, you know? What has your husband cooked for you lately?

[Speaker 1] Hello! How are you today?

[Speaker 2] Hi there! Good thanks. You?

[Speaker 1] Wonderful. Just spending some time in the kitchen with the kiddo today.

[Speaker 2] Sounds fun... I'm crusing ebay and amazon atm

[Speaker 1] Oh looking for anything good? I just bought some gourmet sauce pans last week, haha.

[Speaker 2] Mostly computer upgrade stuff and clothes

[Speaker 1] Nice, nice. Have any hobbies? Job?

[Speaker 2] I work as a travel agent, I guess my hobby is fashion and shopping p

[Speaker 1] We are considering visiting paris but I hear they are obsessed with cheese. Yuck.

[Speaker 2] Paris, cheese... Yup. What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] I sometimes help a family friend in her restaurant, but I prefer cooking at home.

[Speaker 2] Cool, I used to be a cook in college. What kind of restaurant?

I have a kid.

I want to make a trip to Paris. I do not like cheese.

I sometimes work at a restaurant for my family friend.

I like shopping.

I'm a travel agent. My hobbies include fashion and shopping.

I used to be a cook in college.

[Speaker 1] I have finally booked my trip to Paris.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! When do you go?

[Speaker 1] I am going this summer.  Have you ever been to France?

[Speaker 2] Unfortunately not. I would love to go though! Will this be your first time?

[Speaker 1] Yes it is and I am so excited.  I do not speak much French. I hope I am able to get around easily.  Do you speak any other languages?

[Speaker 2] I don't but have always wanted to learn. Do you speak any other languages? I think Spanish would be fun to learn.

[Speaker 1] I took Spanish for four years in high school and I try to speak it every chance I get.  You should really look into taking some classes so you can learn.  It is not difficult.

[Speaker 2] I may do that. I remember that you occasionally work in a restaurant. Can I ask what kind?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I have been working in an Italian restaurant.  Do you like Italian food?  I love pasta.  It is one of my favorite foods.

[Speaker 2] Italian food is my favorite thing in the world. I basically live on it

[Speaker 1] What a small world!  I actually had lasagna for dinner tonight.  That is funny!

[Speaker 2] That is crazy! I had that last night for dinner! I bet your kid liked it as well. It's a family favorite for us

I have a kid.

I am going to Paris in the summer, my first trip to France. I do not speak much French.

I took Spanish in high school and still try to practice.

I work in an Italian restaurant. I love pasta. I do not like cheese.

I used to be a cook in college. Italian is my favorite food.

I have never been to France, but I would like to.

I don't speak any other languages. I would like to learn Spanish. I am considering taking language classes.

[Speaker 1] I've narrowed it down to two hotels for my trip to Paris. Do you think it's worth it to splurge for a view of the Eiffel Tower?

[Speaker 2] I don't think that's worth the splurge -- I would rather splurge for a fast pass to the top of Eiffel Tower as queuing in the regular queue may eat up hours of your day.

[Speaker 1] Oh! I hadn't realized you could do that. Is there a better part of Paris to stay in?

[Speaker 2] The Louvre area is the best arrondissement (neighborhood) to stay in Paris. If you want to stay near the Eiffel tower, look around for hotels in the 7th arrondissement. How long will you be staying in Paris?

[Speaker 1] I'll be there all summer. I am particularly excited about the Louvre. I imagine it can't all be done in one day?

[Speaker 2] Oh, staying in downtown Paris (1st - 7th arrondissement) would put a big dent in your wallet. I would recommend staying farther out for most of your stay to make your money go further. One day is not enough to see all the major downtown sites. Allow yourself around 3-5 days. Are you visiting anywhere outside of Paris?

[Speaker 1] I hadn't really put a lot of thought into other parts of France. Do you have any recommendations?

[Speaker 2] There are several amazing wine regions in France, my favorite being the Beaujolais wine region. Euro Disney is just outside of Paris in a district called  "Cheesy"

[Speaker 1] Is Euro Disney also "cheesey" in the way Americans use the word? :p

[Speaker 2] Yes, it is pronounced the same as English. Will your kid be going with you to Paris?

[Speaker 1] Her grandmother is watching her for the summer--so I'll be on my own. I'm excited for that.

[Speaker 2] I'm excited for you too! You will have a blast! Feel free to contact me with further questions and tour bookings in France.

[Speaker 1] I have to admit I do LOL. It's true I really love eggplant, I can't help it. Do you still hate it?

[Speaker 2] I can't imagine any scenario where I'd even consider trying an eggplant. Even in your hometown Chicago.

[Speaker 2] Eggs. Scrambled, over easy, poached, sunny side up, you name it, just not plant.

[Speaker 1] Eggs are actually pretty good too I have to admit. Are you planning to go to India again anytime soon? I have never been but would love to visit and explore as well.

[Speaker 2] I sure am, in this beautiful world we're living in there's never been a better time to fly across the globe to one of the most densely populated countries on earth, sometimes I make the trip just to taste their lean cuisine.

[Speaker 1] Which places in India would you recommend for someone like me, who is visiting for the first time. Any of the big cities or somewhere rural. Taj Mahal must be amazing to see.

[Speaker 2] That's such a tough question, there's just so many I wouldn't know where to start. If I were you, as someone who's been married 5 times, just wander around and you're sure to stumble into an adventure. You wanna come with me?

[Speaker 1] Oh sure, I would love to come with you. And please when over there make sure to keep my away from all those beautiful indian women so I don't get married for the sixth time lol.

[Speaker 2] My man! I'll tell you what, if I do let you fall in love I'll make it up to you by catering the most decadent feast of eggplant, and, under these special circumstances, for you, I'll even try it.

[Speaker 1] Alright, looks like you're my new travel guide now. I've just booked my flight to come along with you on your trip to India!

[Speaker 2] Awesome. I was thinking about waiting until November to go. It's not as hot there at that time.

[Speaker 1] That's plan. Do not like the heat?

[Speaker 2] Not as hot as it gets over there... unless I'm sitting around with a cool drink in my hand :)

[Speaker 1] Very true, where abouts in India are you visiting?

[Speaker 2] I was thinking of visitng the Golden triangle (Delhi, Jaipur and Agra). I'd love your input if you're coming with me. It's never too late to change our plans.

[Speaker 1] In November a few weeks, but would have to be back for the 1st Sat in December. Because of the Christmas Nights out.

[Speaker 2] I haven't heard of Christmas Nights out. Is that some sort of pub crawl?

[Speaker 1] No, most workplaces go out for drinks on the run up to Christmas. We serve food too so we often get big groups of people at Christmas.

[Speaker 2] I see. You can't miss the big money nights
