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

[Speaker 2] I'm fine, just up grading papers

[Speaker 1] I am a teacher too. What subject do you teach?

[Speaker 2] Awesome! I teach english, but I really want to be an established writer

[Speaker 1] I teach history, my kids and I volunteer with the red cross.

[Speaker 2] We used to do that before my husband passed away! I have two girls

[Speaker 1] I've two boys, they're a handful

[Speaker 2] Yes! I can only imagine, its been hard for me since I'm raising them alone

[Speaker 1] I imagine it is, I'm divorced.

[Speaker 2] Sorry to hear that! Must be harder on the kids

[Speaker 1] It is okay, they were very young, this is all they know.

[Speaker 2] Yea it was hard for my kids too! I tell them stories to get by

[Speaker 1] I do the same. Kids are stronger than we give them credit for.

[Speaker 2] That is true! They're tough

[Speaker 1] My boys do not miss their father, he does not come around

[Speaker 2] That is horrible! He should be ashamed of himself!

I am a teacher.

I am divorced and raise two boys.

I am an English teacher, but want to be a writer.

I have 2 girls.

[Speaker 1] I found a group for single parents and thought you would enjoy it.

[Speaker 2] That sounds interesting. I have never really thought about joining a group. What does this group do?

[Speaker 1] We just casually hang, that is pretty much it. We also often watch movies together and discuss about books

[Speaker 2] When does it meet? I will see if my parents could watch the girls.

[Speaker 1] It's every tuesday and friday, but sometimes we just meet outside of the schedule. I will check when we are meeting next time and let you know

[Speaker 2] Thank you. I wouldn't be able to do a Tuesday because I have a writer's group and the girls do ballet while I meet with the group. What subject do you teach?

[Speaker 1] I teach math. It is very stressful sometimes but I believe you already know that as you teach English. How is the writing going?

[Speaker 2] The writing is going well. My latest attempt at an article was rejected but they did give suggestions and said they would like to see a new version. I was disappointed but I am now excited.

[Speaker 1] I am glad to hear that. I know I am not professional but maybe if you want, you can send that article to me and I will tell you what I think about it

[Speaker 2] I probably will after I make the revisions. My writing group is honest and is also excited about how the article is taking shape. It is for a national publication which would be a great step to being able to teach part-time and write more.

[Speaker 1] Thanks! Who knows, maybe one day you will be worldwide famous and I am looking forward to it

[Speaker 2] Are your boys doing any interesting activities?

I am divorced and raise two boys. My husband died when our children were young.

I am a math teacher.

I have 2 girls.

[Speaker 1] How has your writing been coming along?

[Speaker 2] It has been coming along very well, How are the boys?

[Speaker 1] The boys are doing well.  I'm trying my best to keep them active since their father is gone.

[Speaker 2] I am sorry to hear that, how have they been staying active?

[Speaker 1] Billy is playing baseball, and Jimmy is playing soccer.  I try to make sure that spend some quality time with their uncle Mike.  How are your girls doing?

[Speaker 2] Wow, that sounds like so much fun! My girls are doing well, they are at camp right now?

[Speaker 1] Nice.  I'll looking forward to have this summer off.  It's great to be a teacher!  You got any plans for this summer?

[Speaker 2] Oh, that is so nice! Yes, I will be going on vacation to Paris! I cannot wait.

[Speaker 1] Paris - wow that sound great.  I hope to take the boys to the Smokey Mountains for a least a week this summer.  Have you been to France before?

[Speaker 2] No, this will be my first time! Wow, how was Smokey Mountains?

[Speaker 1] I went to the Smokeys a lot with my growing up.  Thought it would be a good experience for Billy and Jimmy.  Are you taking the girls to Paris with you?

[Speaker 2] Yes, we are taking the girls after they come from camp! I am so glad to hear that!


Before I die, I want to skydive.

I've a pet snake.

My dream is to move to the middle of the desert.

I start an internship in engineering later this year.

I'm a famous video game character online.

I've always had long hair.

I worked at a movie theater for 4 years.

I like spicy food.

I enjoy running at night.

I hope I get to go skydiving while I still can.

I own reptiles.

I enjoy the sun.

I am currently in college.

I live in a fantasy world.

I rarely change my appearance.
I love watching movies.
I love jalapenos.
I am really into exercise.

[Speaker 1] My snake tried to get out of his cage. Hi how are you?

[Speaker 2] I am fine did you catch your snake? My hair is longer than your snake I think

[Speaker 1] That's cool. I like long hair. I had to tighten the lid so he cant get out

[Speaker 2] We should have film it while escaping because I have work in a movie theater for 4 years.

[Speaker 1] I've filmed him a few times. You can film me skydive from a plane.

[Speaker 2] I'd love that I also love running late at night.

[Speaker 1] I've to skydive at least once before I die. Don't run in traffic at night.

[Speaker 2] Yes I won't have you tried eating very spicy food? I love eating spicy asian food.

[Speaker 1] I love spicy and ethnic foods, indian, italian etc.

[Speaker 2] Lets have something later if you want I can treat you dinner.

[Speaker 1] I can film your long hair flowing in the wind if you skydive with me.

[Speaker 2] I love that idea lets make a plan and make a movie on that

[Speaker 1] Ok be there in a minute. I am hungry now. What kind of food do you like?

[Speaker 2] I just said it I love spicy food asian food will be my top choice and you?

[Speaker 1] Only asian? I just said it, indian, italian. Just don't eat snake meat.

[Speaker 2] But eating snake meat is an aphrodisiac in some country lets try it.

[Speaker 1] I will try it once if I am in one of those countries

[Speaker 2] Yes, lets try it before going somewhere else how about we buy snake today?

[Speaker 1] Well sure lets just run to walmart and pickup snake. Where do you get it?

[Speaker 2] Lets get some snake on the zoo I heard that snakes there are really big.

I have a snake.

I love spicy and ethnic foods like indian and italian.

I have long hair.

I have worked in a movie theater for 4 years.

I enjoy running at night.

I love spicy asian food.

[Speaker 1] Did you see any cool movies while working at the movie theater?

[Speaker 2] Huh that is interesting question. I did but not too many. People assume you can watch whatever you want but you are actually at your job

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that is an assumption that I have had in the past. What was the most difficult part of your job?

[Speaker 2] Hmm probably being surrounded by people watching movies and I had to work. It was tempting to sneak in with them and just watch a movie. And food also, you are always surrounded with snacks

[Speaker 1] I can see how that would be frustrating: everyone having fun with their leisure, while you have to service them. Was there any rewarding parts to the job?

[Speaker 2] I liked interacting with people, that was definitely the best part. Tell me more about your snake. It is very uncommon for someone to have a snake

[Speaker 1] Relative to a dog as a pet, I would say that a snake is uncommon, but it is definitely more interesting as a pet in my opinion. The whole stigma that they are dangerous is not the truth in most cases. My snake brings me a lot of joy. I love his skin, the way he wraps around me, and shows me affection (or at least that's what I tell myself).

[Speaker 2] Haha I believe you. It is uncommon but I see your point, it is unique and interesting. Is it a phyton or something smaller?

[Speaker 1] It is a python. I thought I might as well go big haha. It's also a good conversation starter when guests come over. I mean, you can't miss it lol

[Speaker 2] I can see that haha, it is a good icebreaker. Does your snake have a name?

[Speaker 1] Yes, she name is Lucy, short for Lucifer. I swear I'm not a Satanist haha. I just like the name as a metaphor. The name points to the shadowy potential that a snake possesses. Lucy is a sweet snake, but it's still a snake.

[Speaker 2] That is so cool. Although, it does sound a bit controversial. I would like to meet Lucy someday

I have a pet python named Lucy.

I have long hair.

I enjoy running at night.

I love spicy asian food.

I like people.

[Speaker 1] I had to feed my snake yesterday and that is always a fun time.

[Speaker 2] Wow, how is the snake doing so far? What did you feed Lucy?

[Speaker 1] Lucy is great thankyou, she eats crickets and grasshoppers.

[Speaker 2] That is so cool, will you be getting any other pets?

[Speaker 1] I like reptiles so I may get a lizard in the future. Do you have any pets?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have a dog named Grover1 That is so rad!

[Speaker 1] That's a great name, I love dogs. Do you take him running with you?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I do, I enjoy going running with Grover so much!

[Speaker 1] That's awesome, I bet he loves it too! How often do you go running each week?

[Speaker 2] I usually go running two times out of the week! Do you run also?

[Speaker 1] Yes I run and cycle often. It helps burn off calories from all the Italian food!

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, that is so true! Italian food sounds so good right now! Have you had lunch yet?


The musical group I like the most is a rock n roll one.

The secret to my success is that I make money on the side.

I do not like relationships.

I have weird night thoughts.

I'm a huge serena williams fan.
I enjoy seeing new places.
I like music.
My father has a job on an oil rig.

[Speaker 1] Hi. How did you sleep last night?

[Speaker 2] Hello, not too bad how about you?

[Speaker 1] It was ok, quite bizarre can you believe I dreamed I married. Please!

[Speaker 2] Are you wanting to get married?

[Speaker 1] Heck no man! I don't see the point of one partner.

[Speaker 2] Oh, I see what you are saying. Yes that's a valid perspective

[Speaker 1] Have you ever heard of the band the muggers.

[Speaker 2] No, but I'm a huge fan of the chain smokers. Who are the muggers

[Speaker 1] Only my favorite band, that's all I can tell you though lol

[Speaker 2] Lol same with the chain smokers. I reckon they're both pretty obscure

[Speaker 1] I actually know the chain smokers. They're pretty good.

[Speaker 2] Oh really? How random. Good to meet another fan

[Speaker 1] Do you earn an income?

[Speaker 2] Well no, I just travel a lot. Do you?

[Speaker 1] Hello I was just listening to kid rock

[Speaker 2] Nice! I am just getting to finally take a breather. Being an army ranger is rough.

[Speaker 1] Wow that is interesting. I'm getting my masters in music so I'm busy too

[Speaker 2] Oh do you play an instrument?

[Speaker 1] I play all instruments and teach. I am a music loving girl

[Speaker 2] Awesome! I'd have loved to try that but I come from a army family.

[Speaker 1] Wow are you a military brat?

[Speaker 2] Haha! No but my 2 kids could probably be considered that at this point.

[Speaker 1] I like to travel and see the purple flower fields

[Speaker 2] Me too. I like my deployments sometimes to just get away from normal life.

[Speaker 1] I took rotc studies in college

[Speaker 2] Interesting. Did you enjoy it?

I like listening to kid rock.

I'm working to get my masters in music.

I like to travel.

I took ROTC in college.

I am an army ranger.
I come from an army background.
I have two kids.

[Speaker 1] How's work been as an army ranger?

[Speaker 2] Things have been pretty chaotic the past few days, but it has been mostly going well. How is scool going?

[Speaker 1] It is going well so far. I have to study a lot but it will pay off in the future. How old are your kids?

[Speaker 2] Yes, all your hard work will be rewarded. You are so talented.  My daughter is 6 and my son is 4. They are a handful, but they are amazing.

[Speaker 1] I hope so. And what are their names? I can imagine it can get though having to take care of them

[Speaker 2] My daughter's name is Leroy and my son's name is Easton. Do you plan to travel anywhere exciting soon?

[Speaker 1] Nice names, really unique! I am still not sure. I would love to but I have to study, but after I am done with that, then I am planning to visit Japan

[Speaker 2] Thank you! I have always wanted to go to Japan. That will be amazing. How many more years of school do you have left?

[Speaker 1] I am actually on the last year so I am expected to graduate in May and after that we will see how things go

[Speaker 2] I am proud of how well you are doing. What is your favorite instrument to play?

[Speaker 1] Thank you very much! I enjoy playing guitar and piano most

[Speaker 2] I play piano, and I have always wanted to learn to play the guitar. Which instrument do you enjoy teaching the most?

I like listening to kid rock.

I took ROTC in college. I'm working to get my masters in music. I graduate in May.

I like to travel. I am planning to visit Japan.

I am an army ranger.

I come from an army background.

I have two kids. I have a 6 year old daughter Leroy and a 4 year old son Easton.

I want to go to Japan.

I play piano.

[Speaker 1] How are the kids doing?

[Speaker 2] They are doing great its starting to get busy as they get older! How has school been going?

[Speaker 1] It has been going pretty good. I am looking forward to being done. Are your kids signed up for any sports or activities?

[Speaker 2] Thats great to hear I am sure you just want graduate already. And not quite yet I thinking about starting my daughter on piano lessons soon.

[Speaker 1] Music lessons are really good for kids. It helps them in a lot of other areas. Are you going to teach her, or have someone else do it?

[Speaker 2] I agree completely, I haven't decided I might get her lessons since I am not a great teaching especially with young kids. How did you learn to play the piano and guitar?

[Speaker 1] I took lessons from others at first, but I found a lot of good tutorials on YouTube. I know that sounds cheesy, but it was free knowledge!

[Speaker 2] That is a good idea! Once she gets into it and able to play maybe I will teach her some more advanced stuff. So when are you planning to go to Japan?

[Speaker 1] I am hoping to go this summer, but I'm not sure which part to go to. What would you suggest?

[Speaker 2] I have always wanted to go to Northern Japan i have heard it is more quite and pretty, but Tokyo would be cool too.

[Speaker 1] That's the issue I'm running into. I'd like to see both, but I'm not sure I'd have time.

[Speaker 2] That makes sense yeah I don't know which one I would choose then, I am sure either will be great!

I like listening to kid rock.

I love to play and teach all instruments. I enjoy playing guitar and piano. I took lessons and then self-taught myself.

I like to travel. I am planning on going to Japan this summer. I don't know where in Japan I want to go. I want to see Tokyo and Northern Japan.

I am an army ranger.

I come from an army background.

I play piano. I may start my daughter in piano lessons soon. I may teach my daughter piano once she can play.

I have always wanted to go to Northern Japan.

[Speaker 1] I think I may have narrowed down where I would want to visit while in Japan.

[Speaker 2] That is good! Where were you thinking?

[Speaker 1] I want to go to Daisetsuzan National Park in the north.

[Speaker 2] I bet will be amazing! How long will you be out there for this summer?

[Speaker 1] 3 weeks. You always hear about people visiting the cultural sites and doing touristy stuff, but I think I'd really get to know the country by spending time in nature.

[Speaker 2] That is a good trip! I agree with you that spending time in nature helps you really experience the country more.

[Speaker 1] I will probably camp for a week and really explore the park. And then I'll get on to all the cultural things too. It would be a wasted trip not to really experience Japanese culture as well as nature.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a good plan! You will have to show me a lot of pictures of everything!

[Speaker 1] I will take TONS of pictures, I promise! Do you think you will get to Japan someday soon?

[Speaker 2] I am hoping so! I want my kids to be a little older so that they will remember the trip

[Speaker 1] That's a good point. Leroy and Easton are probably too young to really appreciate it. They'd probably rather go to Disneyland hahaha.

[Speaker 2] Oh ya! They have been begging to go there and hate when I bring up anything else. Which I understand but I never wanted to go there I would rather see the world


I want to be a jetsetter.

I spent my time reading.

I am open to anything besides the hillbilly stuff.

I'm energized by social situations.

I'm in third grade.
I want to be like diego maradona.
I am not as smart as I thought.
I've great friends.

[Speaker 1] Hello there! What are your hobbies?

[Speaker 2] Hi I just had my 7th birthday yesterday

[Speaker 1] Reading is my favorite thing to do

[Speaker 2] My hobbies include fishing, hunting and I love playing soccer

[Speaker 1] Those all sound like so much fun!

[Speaker 2] I really like spending time with my friend cayden, he's really good at soccer.

[Speaker 1] Awesome! I like to spend time with my family

[Speaker 2] I applied for the gifted program at my school and I got rejected last week

[Speaker 1] It is still pretty cool that you were smart enough to apply

[Speaker 2] Do you have a best friend

[Speaker 1] Yes, I do. Her name is emily

[Speaker 2] I just missed qualifying for it by 2 points

[Speaker 1] How often can you reapply?

[Speaker 1] Cool. I wrote a piece about an escaped snake once.

[Speaker 2] How cool! I love to collect things like comic books.

[Speaker 1] I have never written for one of those, yet. What is your favorite?

[Speaker 2] I love batman. What kind of things do you eat? I only eat organically grown items.

[Speaker 1] I tried that.. It is hard to give up all the other foods

[Speaker 2] It really is. It has help with my allergies.

[Speaker 1] I get that. I can not have dairy. What is your allergy to?

[Speaker 2] I am allergic to cats, dust and peanuts

[Speaker 1] Interesting. I am glad it is just dairy for me. Say more?

[Speaker 2] I dust a lot. Especially my comic book and my autograph collection.

[Speaker 1] Stan lee does a good business signing things does he not

[Speaker 2] He does. He has made a lot of great stories.

I have collected over 2000 signatures.

[Speaker 1] I found a new comic book I'd like to buy.

[Speaker 2] Awesome! What's the name of the comic book?

[Speaker 1] It is named 'S' because it represents the shape of the snake. What type of snakes do you have?

[Speaker 2] That is so cool. It sounds like something I would be interested in. I have two pythons: Lucy and Sam.

[Speaker 1] I can send you a copy if you want! That is cool, and how old are they?

[Speaker 2] I would love a copy, so we can discuss our opinions on it together. I'm glad to have found someone who enjoys comic books like I do. They are both 2 years old.

[Speaker 1] I will make sure to send it! Do you like snakes because you are allergic to cats?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I wanted the company of a pet, and at first, I thought about getting a dog but that kind of seemed basic, so I decided to get a snake. They have much less upkeep but provide some companionship and gives me something to take care of.

[Speaker 1] It is nice that you are unique and not influenced by people's opinions. And what would you say the most worth autograph in your collection is?

[Speaker 2] Thanks for noticing that about me. You're a good listener. And my most expensive autograph would probably be Albert Einstein's. I don't think I will ever sell it thought, because it's so unique and a great conversation piece.

[Speaker 1] I can imagine that. I really admire his work it was so groundbreaking!

[Speaker 2] It really was. He was a once-in-a-lifetime genius. E equals MC squared and all. The man had thought experiments where he would just sit in silence and come up with great ideas out of nowhere. His imagination was solidified in scientific theories that will last for ages. Truly amazing.

I wrote about an escaped snake once.

I cannot have dairy.

I collect comic books. I love Batman.

I only eat organically grown items. I am allergic to cats, dust and peanuts.

I have two pythons named Lucy and Sam. My two pythons are 2 years old.

[Speaker 1] What is your favourite comic book of all time?

[Speaker 2] The first Batman will always be my favorite. Do you have a favorite comic book?

[Speaker 1] I really enjoy Superman comics, but I haven't read one in quite a few years.

[Speaker 2] Are you interested in the superhero movies now being made? Do you have a favorite superhero movie?

[Speaker 1] I actually really enjoy the Batman trilogy, especially the Dark Knight Rises. What about you?

[Speaker 2] I was really impressed with the Iron Man movies, they were really well done. What's for lunch today?

[Speaker 1] I plan to make a strawberry banana smoothie for lunch, what about you? Are you still only eating organically grown food?

[Speaker 2] Yes I am. I am having a fresh salad with home grown spring mix today. Are you using almond milk in your smoothie?

[Speaker 1] No, I actually use coconut water in this specific recipe. It is really good! Do you have a big garden where you grow your vegetables?

[Speaker 2] Oh, sounds tasty! No, I have a microgarden on my balcony and window sills. I do not have much space but I use the space I have.

[Speaker 1] That is great that you are so committed to eating organic! Have you collected any new signatures?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I just acquired a signed Lee Majors picture.

I wrote about an escaped snake once.

I cannot have dairy.

I used to read comic books.  My favorite comic books were Superman.

I like the Batman movies.  I like the Dark Knight rises movie.

I collect comic books. I love Batman. My favorite comic book is the first Batman.

I have an autograph collection. I have collected over 2000 signatures. My favorite autograph is about Alber Einstein. I have a signed Lee Majors picture.

I like the Iron Man movies.

I have a microgarden on my balcony and window sills.  I live in a small place.

[Speaker 1] I just started my own garden on my balcony.  Do you have any recommendations for what to grow?

[Speaker 2] I think tomatoes are the go to plant on a balcony if movies are to be believed

[Speaker 1] Great so should I use the fresh tomatoes that I have in the fridge' seeds or I must buy seeds in a plant store ?

[Speaker 2] I think you would need seeds specifically ready to grow as some tomatoes are bred without that ability...so called sterile seeds

[Speaker 1] wow you are so knowledgeable!! i will follow your instructions, I would be great to plant tomatoes harvest them in a few months and then sit down in the couch eating mozzarella and fresh tomatoes while reading superman comics

[Speaker 2] well that's always the dream isn't it...unfortunately gardening is tons of time spent weeding and nurturing and position for sunlight...it's nice to achieve an edible tomato though

[Speaker 1] I think in the future we all will be gardening our vegetable because of sustainability issues. I will try to find something else to grow. I love garlic do you think is a good idea to grow garlic in my balcony..? what do movies say about it LOL

[Speaker 2] I think garlic is one of those so simple it makes sense not to buy it in stores, but to grow it yourself on a windowsill

[Speaker 1] I will start this next weekend to do the job. Have you ever grown any vegetable at home I mean if your passion for autographs gives you time.

[Speaker 2] I have not gardened in awhile...I think the passion for gardening comes and goes in life and sometimes you just talk yourself into doing one and other times you talk yourself out of it

[Speaker 1] You are right!! it is all about ideas you think and sometimes they never come true. Have you ever had any bad experience regarding your allergy to nuts and dairy products ?

[Speaker 2] well imagine going through life watching people eat those peanut butter parfaits from dairy queen and knowing it can never be you...it's a form of psychogical torture

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today

[Speaker 2] Hi there. I am so so today unfortunately. It is one of the bad days

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry your having a bad day it is monday after all.

[Speaker 2] No it is my ptsd. I acquired it while serving. I've flare ups every so often.

[Speaker 1] Aw I am sorry thank you for your serve

[Speaker 2] Thank you for saying thank you... I am having a very hard time after the military

[Speaker 1] That's understandable hope it gets better for you

[Speaker 2] I've tried a bunch of stuff to get better, they barely work.

[Speaker 1] That's horrible. Do you like going to the gym

[Speaker 2] Hitting it at least 4 times week and I play football too. I am trying to stay active

[Speaker 1] That's great I love the gym I'm trying to lose some weight

[Speaker 2] Gym is ok for weight loss, but hiking is better. Longer duration and pleasant views.

[Speaker 1] The hard part is the diet I love candy so much

[Speaker 2] Well, go camping and get away from temptations. That's what I do with my camper.

[Speaker 1] I will try that I do have 2 dogs I can take with me

[Speaker 2] I was not sure I'd like it since I'm a truck driver, but.

[Speaker 1] It does seem like a fun thing to do I know my lizard would not survive it

[Speaker 2] Your lizard would thrive! Not just survive!

[Speaker 1] Ll I don't want to lose her.

[Speaker 2] I will confess to you that once I ate a lizard... Not willingly though...

[Speaker 1] Org! That is horrible I love animals to much for that

[Speaker 2] Well if you are surrounded by enemy forces and you have no food or water...

[Speaker 1] That's very true. Well I've to go it was nice talking to you

[Speaker 2] Nice talking to you too! You made me feel better after all! Bye!

I love going to the gym.
I have 2 dogs.
I have a lizard.
I love animals.

I used to be in the military and am having PTSD flare ups.

I am a truck driver.

I ate a lizard once.

[Speaker 1] How's the PTSD? Feeling any better?

[Speaker 2] It's been a couple days since my last flare up, but I am on edge because I don't know when the next flare up will be. I am trying to stay as busy as possible to keep my mind off of it.

[Speaker 1] Oh I understand, you're doing great. Does the gym help?

[Speaker 2] It really does. As long as I'm lifting weight or doing cardio, my mind feels empty, which is good for the time I'm doing it. Usually the post-workout endorphins are enough to put me in a state of bliss for at least a few hours. The only thing that would make it better was if I had a work out partner.

[Speaker 1] I feel that so much!! Working out is my escape from all my problems, as you said, even if it's for the moment. Where do you work out? Maybe we will be work out partners.

[Speaker 2] I work out at the local Planet Fitness. That would honestly be a godsend to have a partner like you. Maybe, I'll get to meet your lizard as well. haha What is your lizards name?

[Speaker 1] I work out at planet fitness too!! But I'm sure it's different locations. Oh you will love my lizard, her name is adasha.

[Speaker 2] That's a unique name. I love it. Well, at least our planet fitness passes will work in each others' gyms, so that works out. Working out plus friends will go a long ways in helping my PTSD, plus I'm pretty good company, so you may get something out of the friendship as well haha

[Speaker 1] That's true, and I'm sure you are a great person. Honestly, I really need a friend too, I would love to meet you.

[Speaker 2] That's sweet of you to say. I think this is the start of something great. I will get in contact with you soon about a good time to meet up.

[Speaker 1] I can't wait!! Plus I'm off of work for about a month so we will have more time to hang out.

[Speaker 2] Great news! I'm usually free on weeknights and weekends, so those will be the best times for me. I love both a good morning workout and evening workout, so the time of day is not too big a deal for me.

I love going to the gym.

I have 2 dogs and a lizard named Adasha. I love animals.

I'm off work for a month.

I like to stay active. I go to the gym 4 times per week. Going to the gym helps with my PTSD.  I wish I had a gym buddy. I go to Planet Fitness.

I am a truck driver.

I ate a lizard once.

[Speaker 1] I had such a great workout today.

[Speaker 2] Do you focus on strength training or aerobic work outs?

[Speaker 1] Right now I'm trying to find a good balance between both. I'm interested in losing a little bit of extra weight, but I also want to gain some muscle. What about you? Do you have a good gym routine? Or do you like to mix it up?

[Speaker 2] I focus on strength training two days a week and aerobic the other two. I really enjoy that just, dead on my feet exhausted feeling I get after an hour or two on the treadmill or stairmachine.

[Speaker 1] Wow, I admire your dedication! I love how I feel when I'm working out and that after-gym feeling as well, but sometimes I have trouble motivating myself to actually get there. Are you able to work out when you're on the road?

[Speaker 2] There are lots of planet fitnesses all over--and since they're open 24 seven I can typically make it into one of those. When I can't I do resitance training in my cab.

[Speaker 1] Hey, I was thinking about your long road trips and was wondering if you had tried out listening to any audiobooks or podcasts? For me, they really help reduce stress and clear my mind. Maybe they could be entertaining for you too?

[Speaker 2] I've listened to audiobooks. Not podcasts though---do you have any recommendations?

[Speaker 1] Do you like true crime stories? If you do, Bear Brook is really good.

[Speaker 2] What kind of true crime? Like homicides? Sometimes the gruesome stuff is bad for my PTSD.

[Speaker 1] Yes homicides, I'm not really into the gruesome part of it - it's more the mystery that intrigues me.  Maybe something lighter would be better for you though. There is another one of my favorites called Beautiful Stories from Anonynomous people. I can't remember the name of the host but he's a comedian and hilarious. The stories are also usually really uplifting.

[Speaker 2] My daughter keeps telling me I should listen to something called---I think it's called This American Life? The way she describes it, it sounds similar

Boating is my favorite activity.
I am a doctor.
I enjoy vacations at the beach.

[Speaker 1] Hey, just got back to shore, what are you up to?

[Speaker 2] I just came from a sip and paint wine tasting event.

[Speaker 1] Oh how exciting! I love those sorts of events. Is wine tasting your hobby?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I love attending wine tours and also museums. What are your hobbies?

[Speaker 1] Well boating is definitely my favorite hobby, but all vacation activities are fun for me.

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun. I want to take my two sons one day.

[Speaker 1] I don't have any kids, that money went towards my house instead

[Speaker 2] Well I bet your house is nice.

[Speaker 1] Oh I think so, it is very large too

[Speaker 2] Do you live alone? Are you married?

[Speaker 1] I live alone, being on call for the hospital all the time makes it hard to date

[Speaker 2] Yeah that is understandable. What do you do?

[Speaker 1] I work as a doctor, what is your profession?

[Speaker 2] I am just a stay at home wife. My husband makes the money.

[Speaker 1] Does your husband ever take your family on vacations?

[Speaker 2] Yeah we vacation every summer

I love sip and paint type of events.
Boating is my favorite hobby.
I don't have children.
My house is very large. I live alone.
I am a doctor at a hospital.

I went to a sip and paint event.

I a mother of two sons.

I am married. I don't work.

I vacation every summer.

[Speaker 1] I have booked my next summer vacation.

[Speaker 2] Oh great, where are you going this time? I am thinking about booking the summer vacation too but not sure where to go.

[Speaker 1] I am going to Spain. I really love their culture and the weather is so good. My friends has visited it already and she told me it is amazing

[Speaker 2] That sounds amazing, where exactly are you going? I have been to Barcelona, fantastic city and as you said, the weather was perfect.

[Speaker 1] I am going to visit Barcelona as well! Do you have any recommendations on what to visit or do?

[Speaker 2] The town centre definitely, Sagrada Familia is like no other building in the world. And the beach is great as well, I am sure the weather will be nice so you can enjoy swimming in the Mediterranean. Are you planning some trips around Barcelona?

[Speaker 1] Note taken, I will follow your advices. Yes, I will also visit nearby villages. Were you in Barcelona with your sons or alone?

[Speaker 2] With my sons and husband as well, a family holiday a few years ago. The Spanish men look good as well, but don't tell my husband I said that.

[Speaker 1] Haha don't worry I won't. Are the girls also as good looking as men? I should find someone so I won't be alone

[Speaker 2] They looked pretty as well as I remember, there are plenty of tourists from all around the world all the time so definitely plenty of opportunities for you.

[Speaker 1] I really hope I can find someone! Did you also visit a winery during your trip? Spain is famous for good wines

[Speaker 2] Oh how could I go there without visiting some winery haha. We went about 10 miles outside of Barcelona to a small winery, the wine was delicious so I tasted quite a bit. I don't remember the name unfortunately, too much wine tasting probably.

I love sip and paint type of events.

Boating is my favorite hobby.

I don't have children. I am single.

My house is very large. I live alone.

I am a doctor at a hospital.

I went to a sip and paint event. I love to attend wine tours and museums.

I a mother of two sons. I have a husband. I don't work.

I vacation every summer. I'm considering booking a summer vacation. I've been to Barcelona. I recommend Sagrada Familia and the Beaches in Barcelona. I think Spanish men are good looking.

[Speaker 1] I started taking Spanish lessons for my trip to Spain.

[Speaker 2] Oh! Very nice! Are you using a tutor or one of those computer language software packages?

[Speaker 1] I'm using a Spanish app that I downloaded on my phone, I bought a subscription for it and it seems to be very effective based on reviews.

[Speaker 2] Why have you decided to head to Barcelona instead of one of the other wonderful places in Europe? Not that it's not an excellent choice. :)

[Speaker 1] I have already traveled to other countries in Europe, except for Spain because I felt I couldn't speak Spanish adequately to enjoy myself if I visited there.

[Speaker 2] Do you speak any languages other than Spanish? If you know Italian or French it should be really easy to learn. I have a friend who only knows Spanish but was able to navigate through Italy pretty easily.

[Speaker 1] I know how to speak a couple of other languages other than English, such as German and French. I ended up picking up a couple of words here and there from my work and through my friends who speak other languages.

[Speaker 2] That is very cool. I don't know that I know any other language enough to really say I can speak it--but I got along okay in Barcelona.

[Speaker 1] I would imagine, many people in Europe take up English to better interact with tourists or other English speakers. I want to be proficient with Spanish to better talk to people in a language they feel comfortable in.

[Speaker 2] Spanish can be such a hard one too--since so many Americans are exposed to Latin American Spanish rather than Spain's Spanish. The translations can get a little wonky.

[Speaker 1] That is true, even among other Latin American coutries, they have their own dialect and words that they specifically use. Its a good thing that the app has settings for the type of Spanish that I want to learn, so I picked the one commonly spoken in Spain.

[Speaker 2] Well, you sounds very well prepared for your vacation then. :) Is there anything in particular you're looking forward to doing?

I love sip and paint type of events.

Boating is my favorite hobby.

I don't have children. I am single.

My house is very large. I live alone.

I am a doctor at a hospital.

I booked a summer vacation to Barcelona. I am taking Spanish lessons. I have a subscription to a language course app.

I have traveled to Europe. I have not been to Spain. I can speak German and French. I have friends who can speak other languages. I want to be proficient in Spanish. I want to be able to converse with local people when I visit other countries.

I can only speak English.

[Speaker 1] I am getting along very well with my online Spanish course.

[Speaker 2] That is great! You'll have to help me out!

[Speaker 1] You are the one who has been to Spain so I am sure you know more than me! You should do the course with me! Do you dream of going back on another trip?

[Speaker 2] I would love another trip! Especially one where I can actually flirt with the fellas ;)

[Speaker 1] haha but what about your husband? Would he be ok with that?

[Speaker 2] Just words, baby! Haha but don't tell my husband I said that.

[Speaker 1] Your secret is safe with me! Where would you like to travel to?

[Speaker 2] I would love to go back to Barcelona with my girlfriends! Go out dancing and what not!

Jumping out of an airplane would be a thrill.

I don't think I could have romantic feelings for a person smaller than myself.

The pitbull I've weighs twice as much as the kitten in the house.

[Speaker 1] My new boyfriend bought me tickets to the best art museums.

[Speaker 2] How, is it a technological museum

[Speaker 1] The best art museums in the country with some tech displays. Cool right?

[Speaker 2] Diving free is what I do on my free time too

[Speaker 1] I've never tried diving but it sounds like fun. Are you hungry?

[Speaker 2] My dog probably coz he is smaller than my other pet cat

[Speaker 1] I hope you do not eat your pets. There's a good vegan section in the cafeteria.

[Speaker 2] I go on date but only if they're taller

[Speaker 1] I've some tall class mates in my early childhood development courses.

[Speaker 2] I am hoping that life will last forever

[Speaker 1] I believe life does last forever. I cannot teach that in kindergarten but I believe it.

[Speaker 2] Technology might find an answer to it

[Speaker 1] Technology is the blueprint of everlasting life, the proof that life goes on forever.

[Speaker 2] Wow, I wish I had that thought before

[Speaker 1] Would you like to come to the museum with me?

[Speaker 2] Sure, and find interesting stuffs around

I have a new boyfriend.

I've never tried diving.

I attended early childhood development courses.

I teach kindergarten.

I do free driving on my free time.
I have a dog and a cat.
I only date people taller than me.
I want to live forever.

[Speaker 1] Did you do any free diving lately?

[Speaker 2] Yes. Now is spring. It's a great time to drive around. What are you busy with lately?

[Speaker 1] I'm busy with teaching kindergarten - it can get exhausting working with kids every day.

[Speaker 2] You are brave to work with little kids all the time. I love kids, but not so much to work with them all the time. How is your new boyfriend?

[Speaker 1] He's doing well.  And he's taller than me, which is great!  Do you have a boyfriend?

[Speaker 2] That's great! I have not found a boy who I love and is taller than me. Nowadays, I play with my dog and cat. Do you have pet?

[Speaker 1] Not anymore.  I used to have a dog, but I had to put him to sleep.  I love animals.  What are your pets' names?

[Speaker 2] I am sorry to hear about your dog. To bury a pet is like to lose a family member. My dog is Max and my cat is Cici. Do you plan to have another dog?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I'd like to have one again eventually.  I can't have them in the apartment where I live now though.  So why is it that you want to live forever?

[Speaker 2] It's not like I want to live forever, I am just scared of death.

[Speaker 1] Oh, okay, yes that can be quite scary.  I think most people are afraid of death. I like to think that when I die I'll see my dead pets and loved ones in Heaven though.

[Speaker 2] Thanks for your understanding. You make me feel much better. We should live everyday to the fullest.  Do you like to read?

I have a new boyfriend.

I've never tried diving.

I only date people taller than me.

I love kids.

I do not have a boyfriend.

I am scared of death.

[Speaker 1] I went on a date with my boyfriend and we went to the zoo.

[Speaker 2] How are things going with the new boyfriend? Did you enjoy the zoo?

[Speaker 1] The date went okay. He is a little too much of a numbers geek to enjoy watching animals. I think he spent the whole time in the monkey house counting the banana peels on the floor of the cage.

[Speaker 2] Oh that's a little odd. Did things get better after you left the zoo? Did you go out for dinner?

[Speaker 1] We didn't go out for chow, just the hot dawg stand at the zoo. Then back to my place for 'you know what'. I sent him home about 2 this morning

[Speaker 2] Any plans to see him again?

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah!!! He's an absolute beast in the sack. No more weekday nights though, I needed a couple hits of speed to make it thru the day with the little snots at work

[Speaker 2] What are your plans for today?

[Speaker 1] Mostly recover - maybe lay out and work on my all-over tan. That should give the guy next door a thrill

[Speaker 2] Have you had the same neighbor for long?

[Speaker 1] He has only been here for a couple months. I think they released him from the loony bin just before he moved in.

[Speaker 2] Is he living there alone or does he have someone looking after him?


I have never had candy in my life.

My favorite mob player is barolo colon.

I'm a professional skittles player.

In my free time, I watch anime and baseball.

I'm known as the iron skittler in the skittles universe.

I will study computer science.

I like playing games online.

I am on my way to uc santa cruz where I was accepted.

I am a vegetarian.

I just graduated from high school.

On evenings and weekends I enjoy televised sports and cartoons.

Taste the rainbow!.

I want to work in tech.

I like chilling on the web.

I will be attending college in california.

I don't eat meat.

I'm done with books.

[Speaker 1] Hello care to chat with a professional skittles player?

[Speaker 2] What is a skittles player?

[Speaker 1] Old game like bowling. I'm know as the iron skittler. Should look me up.

[Speaker 2] The iron skittler? I've only just graduated high school, must be before my time

[Speaker 1] It was created a long time ago. Teenager? Must love to eat candy?

[Speaker 2] Candy is great, I actually really love computer science though. I'm off to uc santa cruz

[Speaker 1] Nice! Wish you the best. I personally have never ate a piece of candy.

[Speaker 2] Thank you, I'm really excited. Really? I only eat candy if its vegetarian.

[Speaker 1] Really. I guess I never got to have any as a kid or something weird like that.

[Speaker 2] Huh. Sheltered background? Do you play anything besides skittles, maybe computer games?

[Speaker 1] A little baseball. I watch a lot of anime but no computer games.

[Speaker 2] Cool, anime is okay. I really like online games

[Speaker 1] Nice. Which types do you like to play?

[Speaker 2] Anything I can play with others, league of legends is great

[Speaker 1] Awesome. I guess its not my forte. Baseball is though.

[Speaker 2] What do you like about baseball?

I am a professional skittles player.

I never eat candy. I never had candy as  kid.

I play some baseball and watch a lot of anime. I do not play computer games.

I just graduated from high school.

I love computer science. I am going to go to UC in Santa Cruz.

I like candy. I only eat vegetarian candy.

I like online games that i can play with others, like league of legends.

[Speaker 1] When do you leave for college in Santa Cruz?

[Speaker 2] I am going to leave for college in a few months-- just after the summer is over! I will be looking for something to do before then, do you recommend starting baseball?

[Speaker 1] Go with what your heart wants.  If you like it, you will put a lot of effort and make it good.  If you don't like it then it won't worth anything.

[Speaker 2] Great advice! What animes would you recommend to watch?

[Speaker 1] I'm the old school but there are some new one pretty good too.  Did you ever watch the classic like Akira?

[Speaker 2] I have never seen that! I will start it after I finish playing games for the night

[Speaker 1] You should, it's a great scifi of the time.  It's still very interesting in this day and age.  The newer generation one like paprika is very good too.  That is the one inspired the movie inception.  So what kind of computer game you like the most?  I never play computer game.

[Speaker 2] I play World of Warcraft, League of Legends, and other co-op games! If you were interested in getting started I think something like Minecraft would be best

[Speaker 1] Minecraft?  I thought it was for kiddle.  I heard of World of Warcraft, it's about 10 or 15 years ago that they started that.  They still have that game going?

[Speaker 2] They do still have it going! It has received a lot of updates since the game started, and I think it runs better now than ever. Minecraft has a lot of kid players but a lot of adults too! You can join an adult server and build more complex things

[Speaker 1] I have no clue at all.  They have different server for different age?  That's interesting.  May be I should try it out.  Which game you like better?

[Speaker 2] I think I like World of Warcraft best of those two, but League of Legends best of all! If you ever want to take a break from baseball, try them out!

I am a professional skittles player.

I never eat candy.

I play some baseball and watch a lot of anime.  I prefer old animes. I've never played a computer game.

I just graduated from high school.

I love computer science. I am going to go to UC in Santa Cruz in a few months.

I like Akira (anime).

I like online games that I can play with others, like World of Warcraft, League of Legends, and other co-op games.  I recommend Minecraft. League of Legends is my favorite.

[Speaker 1] I tried Minecraft.  It was fun!  What else do you recommend?

[Speaker 2] Another similar game would be Harvest Moon or Animal Crossing. It has the same concept where you grow your own stuff and do daily tasks.

[Speaker 1] I don't have the computer stuff you have, can I play those on my Kindle? I was on my raspberry pi for Minecraft. It plays a little slow, but then again it was free to play

[Speaker 2] You can play Animal Crossing on your Kindle tablet. There is a free version that should work on the Kindle. Do you have an iPhone?

[Speaker 1] No, it got repo'd when I stopped paying Verizon. I have an old S3 without a data plan

[Speaker 2] Oh wow. May I ask why you stopped paying Verizon?

[Speaker 1] Remember, you heard the story about how I picked up a Fossil and walked out without paying? Busted! And for some reason they don't let you do your online banking from a phone when you're in the slam

[Speaker 2] That sucks. How was it in the slam? Was it scary?

[Speaker 1] Scary at first, but once you get in with the right bunch it's okay. Food service isn't Michelin

[Speaker 2] Meet anyone interesting in there? You still keep in touch with them?

[Speaker 1] All kinds of interesting people in there. I still have to report in at the half-way house. Does that count as keeping in touch?

[Speaker 2] Definitely. Glad you made it out okay. Anyone in there into Anime?


People hate that I obsess about the poor.

I like to watch people pray together.

People don t like me too much but I like them anyways.

I like to work out at the gym to christian electronic dance music.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome I need to get more fit. I'm on a fish only diet.

[Speaker 1] It helps if you work out to music. I prefer christian electronic as my jam.

[Speaker 2] Nice! I'll check it out! So what do you do for fun?

[Speaker 1] I actually like going to church. Seeing people pray makes me hopeful.

[Speaker 2] Nice! I need to get baptized, the closest I've come is the swimming pool.

[Speaker 1] You should. I guess people get annoyed that I worry about the less fortunate.

[Speaker 2] I think that is awesome! Did you get that from your parents?

[Speaker 1] Yes! I try to be nice to everyone, even people that are mean to me.

[Speaker 2] That is great. All I got from my parents is height and great eyesight.

[Speaker 1] Your not close with them?

[Speaker 2] My father passed and my relationship with my mom isn't the best,

I go to the gym.

I listen to Christian electronic music while I work out.

I enjoy attending church.

I am on a fish only diet.
I have not been baptized.
I am tall and have good eyesight.

[Speaker 1] I am planning to serve people in need on Christmas.

[Speaker 2] That is so cool! Was your family okay with it? Or are they joining you?

[Speaker 1] Yes, they are okay with it. They are Christians too, so we have similar values. It helps that my church is facilitating it though. Have you ever thought about attending church?

[Speaker 2] I have not. I'm not that religious. Do you believe in God?

[Speaker 1] I do believe in God. My belief in him helps empower me to help those who are poor, needy, outcast, lonely, and so on. However, I think you can be a good person even if you're not religious. I know some Christians are judgmental and mean about non-believers, but I am pretty open about having friends who share different beliefs.

[Speaker 2] Why does your belief in him translates into you feeling empowered to help others? I curious what the connection is. What are the motives? Are you doing these things so you can be praised by him and go to heaven?

[Speaker 1] Those are great questions. I love your curiosity. I am encouraged by the examples that are provided in scriptures and in the history of the church. Many of those who did great things were ordinary people, so I feel like I am capable of being of service to the needy reading about their examples. The reward is simply meeting the needs of the other. Anything else that comes is an added bonus.

[Speaker 2] I like how you always look out for others. I'm glad to have a friend like you. Maybe I can join you to serve the people on Christmas.

[Speaker 1] That would be awesome. I would love for you to join me. I think it will be a very inspiring time for us and will bring us even closer.

[Speaker 2] Yes. I would love to be close to you. Maybe you can bring me along when you go to heaven.

[Speaker 1] I wouldn't worry to much about going to heaven, just focus on helping those less fortunate and all that will take care of itself.

[Speaker 2] Yeah just joking around. When are you going to the gym again?

I go to the gym.

I enjoy attending church. I believe in god.

I am concerned about the less fortunate. I try to be nice to people even if they are mean to me. I am encouraged to do good by the bible. I volunteer on Christmas. I and my family are Christians.

I am on a fish only diet.

I have not been baptized.

I am tall and have good eyesight.

I am interested in helping others.

[Speaker 1] How is your diet going? Have you made any good fish recipes?

[Speaker 2] It's going well, it's been tough to be creative with Fish since it's so limited. I've been coming up with different sauces to pair my meals with. But, overall it's going well. Do you like Fish?>

[Speaker 1] I love seafood so yeah I could do that but it must get boring after a while. Sauces would definitely mix it up so give them a try. Jesus fed quite a few people with just one fish!

[Speaker 2] That's great! I did not know that, I'm not aware too much about the Bible and its teachings. But, one aspect from it that I do like is love thy neighbor, which follows my principles.

[Speaker 1] Me too. I'm always trying to do right by others and help out. I walked past a homeless guy the other day and it is such a shame for some people. I know not everyone can be helped but I do my best to help out at the local shelter when I can. It is very rewarding.

[Speaker 2] I agree it is rewarding, and gives such a good feeling. I hope to inspire others by volunteering and helping out where I can as well. Paying it forward is among my philosophy in life. What other types of things do you like to Volunteer your time with?

[Speaker 1] Well apart from the shelter I do help support others online from time to time. We have a website that members of the congregation can come to for advice and guidance. It's quite cool really. Have you every considered attending church, just to see what it's like?

[Speaker 2] I grew up Catholic and went to Church every Sunday with my Father. I stopped going when I was in my teens. I just fell out of love with Religion altogether. I've thought about returning but I just don't know where to start.

[Speaker 1] It's easily done these days and I understand. There are lots of distractions and life just takes over. If you are interested I'd recommend just turning up at a service one Sunday at your local church and go from there. They won't turn you away and you can stay at the back and just listen. You can meet some nice people.

[Speaker 2] That's a good point, I think my interactions in the past I've associated with going and having to stay there. But, now I'm an adult I can do what I want. Do you have a favorite type of service you like to attend?

[Speaker 1] Just mass on Sunday really. I like the sense of community and the fact that people help each other out. You should give it a go! - I feel like a missionary LOL

[Speaker 2] Thank you! I will definitely consider it. I appreciate your insight.

I go to the gym.

I love seafood.

I volunteer at a local shelter. I try to help others.

I support others online through my church's website. I attend Sunday mass and enjoy the sense of community from that.

I am on a fish only diet.

I have not been baptized.

I am tall and have good eyesight.

I am not religious. I do not attend church. I'm not very familiar with the Bible. I follow the principle of loving thy neighbor. I grew up Catholic. I don't go to church anymore, but I've considered returning.

I am interested in helping others.

I volunteer and try to help others.

I'm an adult.

[Speaker 1] I decided that I'm going to attend church this Sunday

[Speaker 2] Oh ok, what kind of church will you go to?

[Speaker 1] I will go to a Christian church in my neighborhood. There is a really nice community at the church. Are you still interested in returning to church?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I am thinking about it the older I get. Maybe one day I can tag along with you?

[Speaker 1] Of course, we would love to have you. They sometimes serve dinner at my church. I will invite you for seafood night. What kind of fish do you like to eat?

[Speaker 2] Thank you so much! My favorite is definitely grouper but I also love salmon, catfish, snapper. I will try pretty much any fish though.

[Speaker 1] Awesome! Grouper and salmon are also my favorites. Have you been volunteering recently? If not, you could also volunteer with me at the local shelter.

[Speaker 2] No, I haven't been able to do much lately but I wouldn't mind going with you to the shelter. How often do you go?

[Speaker 1] I go once a week, usually on Thursday evenings after I hit the gym. I want to give back after I make my gains if you know what I mean.

[Speaker 2] Ok, I think I can do that. Just give me a heads up the beginning of the week. So what do you do at the gym? Are you in a class of some sort?

[Speaker 1] I usually lift weights and then do some cardio, either on the treadmill or stationary bike. Do you work out?

[Speaker 2] Ok, I have a treadmill that I get on occasionally but I do need to start with some weights as well. I get too comfortable doing one thing and I'm not sure it is very effective.

[Speaker 1] Yes its a small blue honda civic, lots of miles, but gets us around.

[Speaker 2] That's all you can ask for. I don't have a car myself.

[Speaker 1] We found some portobello mushrooms, it was a really lucky day! Do you like eating mushrooms?

[Speaker 2] I like using it as a topping on things like pizza and hamburgers! How do you use mushrooms?

[Speaker 1] I'm trying to eat less meat so I use them as a replacement, if you cook them right they can be pretty similar in taste and texture. Have you enjoyed any movies recently?

[Speaker 2] Mmmm that's a great idea! I saw the movie Tenet in theaters recently. I thought it was pretty confusing haha. Have you seen any good movies lately?

[Speaker 2] I love a good musical! I would say my favorite movie genre are mystery thrillers, because they are always exciting! What's your favorite all time musical?

[Speaker 2] I remember seeing the latest version of Les Miserables in theaters a few years ago! It was great! I would say my favorite thriller is Nightcrawler with Jake Gyllenhaal! It had some intense moments! Have you seen it?

[Speaker 1] Yeah he's a really good actor. He was terrifying in that movie. I'll watch pretty much anything he's in.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, he's my favorite actor! Another great thriller he's in is a movie called Prisoners! Check it out if you haven't!

I go mushroom hunting. I know one mushroom from another. I have a paps.

I live with my grandparents.

I am in the last year of high school.

I am trying to eat less meat.

[Speaker 1] She's doing well, but her hearing isn't as good as it used to be. She hates wearing her hearing aid.

[Speaker 2] That must be tough to wear that. How is the mushroom hunting going?

[Speaker 1] We're all pretty dressed up today, so no mushroom hunting for us. Maybe this weekend, we'll get to go.

[Speaker 2] Hopefully you find some good ones! Maybe you'll give me a few to put on my pizza haha

[Speaker 1] You sure do love eating pizza. I have to be much more conscious of what I eat.

[Speaker 2] Pizza is healthy... it has tomatoes haha

[Speaker 1] My weakness is candy. I can eat healthy all day and then blow it all up by eating a bag of m&m's.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I want to learn new things

[Speaker 2] The thing about life like sports is to just keep going

[Speaker 1] Right, just keep trying I guess

[Speaker 2] You will improve and be awesome! What is your dream in life?

[Speaker 1] To be awesome above all things

[Speaker 2] But awesome at one thing is best, what is your one thing?

[Speaker 1] I don't want to take over the whole world, just a small part of it

[Speaker 2] Like maybe a bit of baja california?


I smoke two packs of cigarettes most days.

If I were to be reincarnated, I d want to come back as a hippopotamus.

I can t get enough of lindsey stirling s music.

I could eat meatloaf every night and never get tired of it.

I enjoy putting alcohol in my coffee.

My inspiration is clasical music.

I ve recently started working as a freelance designer.

I m a graphic designer.

[Speaker 1] What are you up to tonight?

[Speaker 2] I am doing some work on my art. How about you?

[Speaker 1] Great. Listening to some lindsey stirling. She's out of this world

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. What kind of music does she play? I love classical.

[Speaker 1] She plays the violin. She's talented and gorgeous

[Speaker 2] I bet I would love to hear her. How inspiring.

[Speaker 1] You should listen to her. Do you like any foods?

[Speaker 2] I love cake, any kind. How about you?

[Speaker 1] I'm a huge lover of meatloaf, and coffee but only with alcohol in it

[Speaker 2] I've never had coffee with alcohol in it. What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] Nothing of any importance. What about you?

[Speaker 2] I do some graphic design for a few places

[Speaker 1] Oh are you any good at it?

[Speaker 2] I'm glad I can do art for a living. I love to draw.

[Speaker 1] Do you smoke cigarettes? I do when I am stressed

[Speaker 2] No, I've never smoked.

I love meatloaf. I love coffee with alcohol in it.

I smoke cigarettes.

I love classical music.

I love any kind of cake.

I m a graphic designer. I love to draw.

I have never smoked cigarettes.

[Speaker 1] Did you draw anything new since we last spoke?

[Speaker 2] I did! I drew a picture of my dog, a bulldog. What kind of coffee drinks do you make out of coffee and alcohol? Sounds good!

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's so sweet! I hope you will show that to me some time. Have you drawn any other pets? Well, there are many types of drinks you can make by mixing alcohol and coffee. I think a good start for someone trying it for the first time would be an iced Irish coffee.

[Speaker 2] I usually draw people, but decided to be adventurous and draw my dog. Iced Irish coffee sounds delicious! What do you usually put in it?

[Speaker 1] It's usually made with syrup, whiskey, coffee, and heavy whipping cream. I'll send you a nice recipe for it later. What type of people do you usually draw?

[Speaker 2] That would be awesome, thanks! Typically, I draw portraits of people. Have you done anything exciting lately?

[Speaker 1] Nah, I mostly just smoke and eat meatloaf and drink coffee-alcohol mixes, usually while watching sports or something. But making portraits seems like a cool skill. I wish I had that sort of talent.

[Speaker 2] You can always learn how to make portraits, there's videos on YouTube that will teach you how. I will have to show you them when we meet up sometime.

[Speaker 1] Thank you, I think that could be fun to try, but I wouldn't get my hopes up. My art skills tend to be pretty terrible. How did you learn how to draw?

[Speaker 2] I learned how to draw by taking art classes, I started as a kid. Do you cook meatloaf from scratch? Or do you just like to eat it?

[Speaker 1] It's embarrassing to admit, but I usually eat frozen meatloaf. I wish I had cooking skills, but they're no better than my art skills.

[Speaker 2] Have you ever thought about taking cooking classes?

I smoke cigarettes.

I am bad at art.

I love classical music.

I love any kind of cake. I have not had coffee with alcohol in it.

I have never smoked cigarettes.

I have a bulldog.

[Speaker 1] I signed up for a cooking class.

[Speaker 2] oh, that is great! What is the first thing you're hoping to learn how to cook?

[Speaker 1] I am hoping that they teach me how to make an even more delicious meatloaf! What is the name of your bulldog?

[Speaker 2] That sounds great! I know how much you love your meatloaf, it'll be good to learn how to cook it. My bulldogs named is Alfonso. I was going to take a walk with him soon.

[Speaker 1] That is a great name! I know you draw portraits of people but have you drawn one of sweet Alfonso?

[Speaker 2] I tried, one time! It didn't turn out so great. Most of my art classes have focused on the human figure. I'd have to take a different one to learn how to draw animals, I think. Have you ever considered taking any art courses to improve your skills?

[Speaker 1] I have thought about it but I think my art skills are a lost case. I struggle drawing stick figures. Do you listen to classical music when you draw or do you like the silence?

[Speaker 2] Learning to cook meatloaf might be enough of a challenge for you, anyways! I do usually listen to classical music when I draw; I've been listening to Chopin. I've been thinking of trying to mix it up and branch out of my comfort zone. Do you like a certain type of music?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I love classic rock. I am not sure if it is the right mood for your drawing but it is great to run to.

[Speaker 2] You never know, it could inspire some different types of drawings! Do you have a recommended band? I think I listened to the Beatles once.

[Speaker 1] My first recommendation would be April Wine. They have a good mix of ballads and rockers. I am getting hungry and think I will have a piece of carrot cake. Do you like all cakes? What's your favorite?

[Speaker 2] I've never heard of them. What is your favorite song? Carrot cake is always good, but my favorite type of cake is red velvet with cream cheese icing!

I smoke cigarettes.

I am bad at art. I cannot draw well.

I don't know how to cook. I eat frozen meatloaf. I will be taking a cooking class. I am hoping how to learn how to make a delicious one.

I listen to classic rock.

I like April Wine. I like carrot cake.

I love classical music. I like Chopin.

I m a graphic designer. I love to draw. I typically draw portraits of people. I take art classes on drawing people.

I have never smoked cigarettes.

I have a bulldog named Alfonso.

I once listened to the Beatles.

Red velvet cake is my favorite.

[Speaker 1] At what age did you start listening to classical music? Most of the classical music lovers I know say it was something that they started to appreciate more once they reached their 30s.

[Speaker 2] I grew up with it. My mom always listen to it.

[Speaker 1] That's amazing! Was she a musician, and did she also go to concerts pretty frequently?

[Speaker 2] no, she was an art teacher and just loved classical music. I don't she ever went to concert.

[Speaker 1] She must have been a very cultured lady! My parents were pretty ignorant of culture.

[Speaker 2] Yea I admired my mom. I think the is why I became a graphic designer because I was influence by her love of art and music

[Speaker 1] It's so cool that you inherited her talent for visual arts. Do you find that classical music influences your design work?

[Speaker 2] I think so. My work has a classical style to it. I like the simple lines and space.

[Speaker 1] That's really interesting. I find that a lot of designs today are too busy or flashy. It's refreshing to hear that someone is bucking the trend haha.

[Speaker 2] I agree, by the way, did you sign up for that cooking class?

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah! It's coming up this weekend! We'll be making some soul food with an Asian twist. It should be interesting!

[Speaker 2] wow, that is a very progressive cooking class.

[Speaker 1] Since I am a pilot in the military, I do a lot of cardio and strength training. I train with my dogs sometimes too when I'm home. How come you fear dying young?

[Speaker 2] My grandfather passed away at a very young age. I am afraid there could be some inherent health problem in the family. You are a military pilot. How come you are scared of a insect like spider?

[Speaker 1] Oh I see, I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you the best of health going forward! When I was young my brother put fake spiders on me when I was sleeping. I woke up really spooked out and have been scared of spiders ever since.

[Speaker 2] Speaking of dogs, I need to find someone to take care of Sparky while I'm gone. I wish he could come with me.

[Speaker 1] Is that you asking me to watch Sparky for you?

[Speaker 2] No, not at all! I'm trying to find someone who'll stay at my house and take care of Sparky. Sparky likes sleeping in his own bedroom.

[Speaker 1] Oh, well I would love to watch him at my house if you need me to. Fido and Gerard would love the company.

[Speaker 2] That's amazing of you to offer. Are you sure Gerard wouldn't mind sharing his bed with Sparky?

[Speaker 1] Gerard loves to snuggle, so he won't mind at all.

[Speaker 2] Well, Sparky's idea of snuggling is trying to wrestle you to death. He can be a handful, just to warn you.


I really like cake and do not prefer vegetables.

I have one sister and a niece and nephew.

I'm almost finished with my degree.

I take care of my mother and father.

My favorite singer is jacob sartorius.

I work a dead end 9 to 5 job as a snakeskin oil salesman.

In my freetime I enjoy cloud watching.

My idea of flirting is to stare from a distance.

My favorite store to shop at is costco.

I do not eat healthy.

I have a sibling and she has 2 children.

My schooling is close to being completed.

I'm the one who supports my parents.

I like to listen to music.

There are no opportunities in my career.

I stare at condensing water vapor in the sky.

I like to coquettishly gaze at men from across the room.

I go shopping a lot.

[Speaker 1] Hello there how are you doing today?

[Speaker 2] I'm doing great, just got home from my favorite store, costco.

[Speaker 1] Oh cool I love costco I go there to get cakes I really enjoy a good cake

[Speaker 2] Mmmm cake. On the way home I listened to jacob sartorius, my favorite singer.

[Speaker 1] I will have to look him up later. My niece and nephew may know him.

[Speaker 2] Its not worth looking up. The pastime activity I enjoy the most is simply cloud watching.

[Speaker 1] Amazing I watch clouds all day. I'm about to finish my degree for meteorology.

[Speaker 2] Its not all the different than my idea of flirting.. To stare from a distance

[Speaker 1] Oh I need a bit more than look on. Have any family? I've a sister

[Speaker 2] Yes I've 7 children and I am really struggling

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry to hear that. I'm also struggling here watching my parents in their last moments.

[Speaker 2] I'm nothing but a snake oil salesman with a dead end 9 5

[Speaker 1] I hope you find something worthwhile soon. I know its hard

[Speaker 2] Quietly sobbing in dark cubicle

I like cake.

I do not listen to Jacob Sartorius.

I am a student. I study meteorology. I like watching clouds.

I am an uncle. I have a sister.

My parents are dying.

My favorite store is Costco.

I like cake. My favorite singer is Jacob Sartorius.

I like watching clouds.

I'm a father to 7 kids.

I don't like my job.

[Speaker 1] My sister is coming to visit and help with my parents.

[Speaker 2] That will be relieving for you. Taking care of your parents is quite taxing

[Speaker 1] Yes I really need to take a break at least for few hours. How do you manage with 7 kids by the way?

[Speaker 2] Well, I somehow manage by drawing up a schedule of activities and  following it to the letter

[Speaker 1] Well that makes sense, but I imagine you have to buy a lot of food to feed everyone. Do you always buy at Costco?

[Speaker 2] It is costly to feed all these kids and yes I buy most of my food at Costco. It is cheaper than most markets.

[Speaker 1] I have actually never been in Costco but I might give it a try if you say it is so cheap

[Speaker 2] You'd love to shop there, it saves you a great deal. It also saves your time since you get most products that you require in one store

[Speaker 1] I will for sure give it a try! Do you bake cakes for your kids?

[Speaker 2] Yes I usually bake cakes for my kids. they love my confectioneries so much

[Speaker 1] Do you have any interesting recipes to share? I might bake something for my sister

[Speaker 2] Well you could try my coffee cake. I bet you'd love it. I will forward you the recipe

I like cake.

I do not listen to Jacob Sartorius.

I am a student studying meteorology. I like watching clouds.

I am an uncle.  My sister and I don't live together.  My parents are dying. I live with my parents and take care of them.

I've never been to Costco. I like to save money on food. I bake.

My favorite store is Costco. I'm careful with how much I spend on food.

My favorite singer is Jacob Sartorius.

I like watching clouds.

I'm a father to 7 kids.

I don't like my job. I'm organized.

I like cakes. I bake cakes for my children. I bake coffee cake.

[Speaker 1] My parents just asked me if we had any baked goods, so I might make them something later.

[Speaker 2] Is it for any special occasion? I would help bake them some too if it is, I love baking cakes for parties.

[Speaker 1] No, no special occasion. I'm surprised they even asked for anything, they don't eat much anymore. Some days it's a struggle for them to eat at all. So, I guess it is kind of a special occasion. I bet they would love some of your famous coffee cake!

[Speaker 2] I bet they would, I know my children certainly like eating it every now and then. Its very honorable that you are taking care of your parents, not many other people would like to do that.

[Speaker 1] I couldn't imagine not doing it. They took care of me, so it's only right that I take care of them when they need me. We still manage to have some fun. We watch tv, play some board games, just watch the clouds go by.

[Speaker 2] I would love if my kids could all take care of me when I'm older, but for know I will happily help them out in anyway that I can. Do you watch any particular shows with your parents?

[Speaker 1] It will be easy for your kids, lol. They can take shifts, one day a week. That's a perk to having so many! You're a great dad! The effort you spend on them will be returned. I'm trying to get my parents into The Walking Dead. We've only watched three episodes so far.

[Speaker 2] That will be true, they can all help take care of me by splitting the work. I haven't really watched The Walking Dead either, my family loves watching comedies or mysteries.

[Speaker 1] Do you have any recommendations? Maybe a comedy would be better for my parents.

[Speaker 2] I recommend Schitt's Creek, theres plenty of seasons and episodes to watch if you really like it. The Kominsky Method is a really good show as well.

[Speaker 1] Nice, thanks! We'll check those out! Maybe you could bring a coffee cake over on Saturday and we can watch an episode or two together with them.

[Speaker 2] Of course, I would be happily to do so. I think I should be free on Saturday, my children were going to their grandparent's house on that day.
