I'm recently divorced.

I'm trying to write an ebook on animals.

I wish to buy a corvette when I retire.

I am a huge fan of dogs.

I own a german shepard.
I live in california.
I own a corvette.
I like to surf.

I am currently looking for a new home.
I am a zoologist.
I want to purchase a sports car.
I love canines.

I'm a dog person.
I'm on the west coast.
I've a fancy car.
I enjoy riding waves on a board.

[Speaker 1] I just broke up with my partner. No to talk to except the dog.

[Speaker 2] I'm sorry to hear that. What kind of dog do you have?

[Speaker 1] Malamute. I like big dogs but next one may be an ankle biter.

[Speaker 2] Nice. I have a german shepard. I also like large dogs.

[Speaker 1] Trying to get an ebook together on dogs. I must learn all types.

[Speaker 2] That's pretty cool. I would probably be interested in reading that.

[Speaker 1] What are you interested in accomplishing?

[Speaker 2] I want to be the best surfer in the world.

[Speaker 1] I saw some doing the night surfing on tv. I think it was hawaii.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. Hawaii cool, but I prefer to reside in california.

[Speaker 1] How old is your german shepherd? Does he go to the beach with you?

[Speaker 2] He is about seven years old and yes. He loves the beach.

[Speaker 1] Does he get nervous when you are surfing and he's on the beach?

[Speaker 2] No, there are many young children there to play with him.

I just broke up with my partner. I have a dog.

I have a Malamute. I like large dogs. I might get a small dog next.

I like large dogs. My German shepherd is seven. My German shepherd loves the beach.

I like to surf.

[Speaker 1] I am planning a trip to California, I know you said it was one of your favorite places. Do you know of a great beach with a hotel nearby that's not too crowded or expensive? I'd prefer to go to Northern California.

[Speaker 2] I don't really know very much about Northern California, I'm sorry. Have you tried a travel website?

[Speaker 1] I have tried Google but you don't really know how good a hotel will be just based on a few pictures online. I am looking for personal experiences. Maybe Yelp? I also need to find a place to rent surfboards.

[Speaker 2] Yelp might be good. How is your ebook going?

[Speaker 1] I am stuck. I wrote a chapter but I don't like what I wrote and keep rewriting everything. I might just make a picture book instead. Do you have pics of your German Shepherd I can use?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes it's better to put the chapter away for a few days and look at it again after a break. I would be happy to send you photos of my German Shepherd. Is the book about lots of different breeds?

[Speaker 1] Yes I don't have enough pics of my Malamute to make a full book. I might get more inspiration for what dog breeds to include after my trip to California. How is Hawaii right now?

[Speaker 2] I hear it's great weather all year round. I haven't been there in many years but want to go back, maybe for my 25th anniversary next year.

[Speaker 1] I have never been to Hawaii but it is definitely on my list. Maybe Japan or Korea after that. I have only left the country to go to Mexico.

[Speaker 2] I have been to the Caribbean, England, Scotland & Brazil but mostly when I travel now it's within the US. It's hard to travel overseas because I don't like to leave my dog for too long.

[Speaker 1] I hear you those dog day care fees really add up. I'll let you know what hotel I end up picking for my trip to California

[Speaker 2] I'm sure you will find something good. It's supposed to be nice up there. I hear the giant Redwood forest is amazing!

I just broke up with my partner.

I'm writing an ebook together about dogs. I'm struggling to write my eBook.

I'm planning a trip to Northern California and want to stay in a beach hotel. I prefer personal customer service. I surf.

Hawaii, Japan and Korea is on my travel Wishlist. I have only travelled to Mexico outside of my country.

I like large dogs. My German shepherd is 7 and it loves the beach.

I like to surf.

I like Hawaii. I prefer to live in California. My 25th anniversary is next year and may go back to Hawaii.

I don't travel much outside the US anymore but I used to. I have been to Brazil, Scotland, England and Carribean.

[Speaker 1] So how's your German Shepard? Did you ever tell me his name?

[Speaker 2] She's great! We just came back from the beach so she's a happy camper. How is your malamute?

[Speaker 1] She is great, just got back from walking her at the beach. Her name is Ella. What is your dog's name?

[Speaker 2] Her name is Maya. How are feeling, by the way? Is Ella helping you cope after the break up?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, dogs always have a way of sensing how you're feeling. I was trying to get my mind off of it so I thought I would take her surfing with me. She got the hang of it right away. This really gives me some inspiration for my ebook. Have you ever tried surfing with Maya?

[Speaker 2] I actually have. She loves to surf with my partner and me, but I think she loves running and yapping and the waves even more, haha.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, same here. She actually fell off once and got pinched by a crab on the way in, poor thing. I think there are probably a lot more people out there that surf with their dogs. Do you think that would make a good chapter in my book?

[Speaker 2] Oh no, poor Ella! I think you could definitely do something with dog surfing. What is the book about?

[Speaker 1] I am writing an ebook about dogs. I have been struggling for awhile trying to figure out how to get started. There are so many ebooks about dogs so I want mine to stand out. I'm thinking about writing about extreme activities you can do with your dog. Do you have any tips for the chapter on surfing with your dog?

[Speaker 2] Oh that sounds very interesting! I think it would be good to emphasize the importance of starting small when it comes to surfing. Get them used to swimming in calm waters and then gradually up the intensity until they are ready to surf

[Speaker 1] That's a good tip, I'll be sure to include it. I was thinking of getting another dog. A small one this time. I wonder if a small dog is easier to surf with?

[Speaker 2] I'm not sure, I've never owned a small dog, but I'd be worried they'd get lost in the waves.


I know how to drive a stickshift.

We lived in virginia while I was growing up.

My mother was a teacher.

I'm a truck driver.

My father was a cop.

I worry about my image.

I live in a bad neighborhood.

I wish my mom was healthier.

I worry about our neighbors yelling in the middle of the night.

I wish I could go to a better school.

I can operate a car with a manual transmission.

I grew up in the east.

My mos was working in school.

I drive a rig.

My dad was a police officer.

I like my picture.

I call the ghetto home.

My mother has a terrible illness.

My neighborhood can get loud late.

I am saving up to go to a four year university.

[Speaker 1] Hi! How are you doing?

[Speaker 2] I have been better, I am worried about my moms health.

[Speaker 1] I am sorry to hear that, is she ok?

[Speaker 2] She's sick a lot, I think the neighborhood we live in doesn't help her mood either.

[Speaker 1] Maybe try virginia, I lived there with my parents. My mom was a teacher

[Speaker 2] I wish I could move, there are probably better schools compared to mine

[Speaker 1] My school actually taught me how to drive stickshift car

[Speaker 2] My school, is terrible, I worry I won't get hired because it gives a bad image

[Speaker 1] You will be ok! My father was worried too but he became successful as a cop

[Speaker 2] I wish you could send him here, my neighbors yell and fight all night

[Speaker 1] Oh no, I'd not hear that much because I drive trucks all night

[Speaker 2] Living here makes everyone think I'm a loser, driving a truck would help me get away

[Speaker 1] I don't think you are a loser! Yeah you could try truck driving

[Speaker 2] Thanks, I just wish I did not have to complain all the time.

I can drive stickshift car.

My father was a cop.

I drive trucks at night.

My mom is sick. I don't live in a good neighborhood.

I want to get a job.

[Speaker 1] I hope your mom has been getting better. How is school for you?

[Speaker 2] She still isn't feeling well. My school is lame.

[Speaker 1] Oh no that all sounds bad :( Have you seen any interesting jobs at least?

[Speaker 2] Not really, not many good opportunities where I live.

[Speaker 1] Well I have to drive trucks at night. I'm exhausted all the time and have to sleep most of the day. If it makes you feel any better, I hate my job.

[Speaker 2] At least you have a job. I'm hoping to find one soon.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I'm thankful that I have one. It took me some time to find it. Jobs are hard to find these days. Can you drive?

[Speaker 2] Yes, but not a stickshift like you can.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you could do deliveries or Uber if you have a car. Thats how I started before I got into driving trucks.

[Speaker 2] That might work. But my neighborhood is so sketchy.

[Speaker 1] Youll have to drive quick then and not stop! haha

[Speaker 2] You're not kidding. That's a good strategy around here.

I used to do deliveries before I started driving trucks.

I want to get a job.

I am in school. I can't find any good job opportunities around me. I do not currently have a job.

I can't drive stickshift.

[Speaker 1] I just saw a news story about your neighborhood, you weren't lying about how sketchy it is.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I've been hearing police around my neighborhood for the past few hours.

[Speaker 1] Yea its pretty quiet out here in Virginia. Why don't you try moving. Maybe you could find more jobs.

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea, and I'm thinking of doing that once I finish school. I'm hoping with a degree, I can find more work opportunities.

[Speaker 1] I am sure you will I know you deserve a chance at a better life. What kind of work are you looking for?

[Speaker 2] Well, I've been taking care of my mom and studying for nursing. So some work in the hospital maybe.

[Speaker 1] There are a lot of openings for truck drivers here and I know my sister says they are always looking for nurses at the hospital where she works.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I feel like they will always need nurses. Or at least I'm hoping. Are you thinking of switching jobs?

[Speaker 1] I hope so. I want to work for the USPS. That way I don't have to travel so much.

[Speaker 2] I hope you find a job! Have you searched for openings in your area?

[Speaker 1] I am planning to start looking next week.

[Speaker 2] I wish you the best of luck!

I lived in Virginia with my parents. My mom used to be a teacher. My father was a cop. I do not live in a high-crime neighborhood.

I can drive stickshift car. I drive trucks at night. I sleep most of the day. I hate my job. It took me some time to find my job. I'd like to switch jobs. I'd like to work for the postal service.

I have a sister who works at a hospital.

My mom is sick. I live in a sketchy neighborhood. I live in a high-crime neighborhood. My neighbors are noisy I complain a lot.

I want to get a job.

I can't drive stickshift.

I'm considering moving after I graduate. My major is nursing.  I might apply for a hospital job after I graduate. I take care of my mother.

[Speaker 1] I applied for an opening at the USPS, should hear something in the next couple days.

[Speaker 2] Thats great!  I hope you get an interview!  Then you can get off that terrible night shift

[Speaker 1] Fingers crossed. In the winter, it's so tough to never see daylight. I go to bed before it gets light, and I wake up when it's already dark. It's like living in Alaska or something. LOL.

[Speaker 2] That is very hard, day light is good for your emotional well being.  what do you do on your days off?

[Speaker 1] I look for work, to be honest. It's almost impossible to job hunt when I'm working because no place is home to contact when I'm actually awake. I can't wait to stop driving at this point. Maybe I should follow your lead and go back to school. How's it going, by the way?

[Speaker 2] Its hard, but i think it will be worth it. once i'm a nurse I can probably get a job anywhere

[Speaker 1] When you're in your last semester and you're looking for a job, please let me know. My sister might be able to put in a good word for you. Or, at the very least, you can give you some inside info about where is good to work and where isn't.

[Speaker 2] Wow that would be great.  If you go back to school what do you think you would like to study?

[Speaker 1] If I go back, I think I'd follow in my mom's footsteps, and maybe become a teacher. She absolutely loved her job before she retired.

[Speaker 2] That would be a great occupation what grade do you think you would like to teach?

[Speaker 1] I don't think I could teach any kids younger than high schoolers. I don't know how I would keep my sanity teaching middle-schoolers, though.

[Speaker 2] Both of those ages are very emotional it might be easier to be with the little ones, where tying shoes are their biggest problems

[Speaker 1] I had such a crazy shift at the cafe. Three little league baseball teams came in for pizza today!

[Speaker 2] Oh my goodness, that sounds insane! I don't know how you deal with all those people? I guess I will have to try pizza from your place soon though, sounds like people love going there in droves!

[Speaker 1] Yes, it was busy, but that is a good thing. Have you read any good books lately?

[Speaker 2] I have been looking for a good one actually. I was researching a good Utopian series but haven't found one yet. I like books that make you think, have you came across anything?

[Speaker 1] I've been reading a lot of financial books lately. I am reading The Four Hour Work Week right now, and it seems to be pretty good.

[Speaker 2] I have heard that places in Europe have adopted that schedule and are more productive. I will have to check that out too. I read a lot of work related articles too but that sounds worth my time for sure. I would love to have a 4 day work week!

[Speaker 1] So what type of job do you plan on looking for once you finish school?

[Speaker 2] I am planning on working for my family's construction company. I am going to follow in my families footsteps. I have been helping in the offices since I was a teenager so I am really comfortable with engineering and construction.

[Speaker 1] That sounds really cool! What type of construction do they do?

[Speaker 2] They specialize in mini malls and mid size malls. They want to expand to personal homes but that won't be anytime soon.

[Speaker 1] Is it becoming hard to find vacant land to develop?

[Speaker 2] I have been tasked with finding property between classes for the past few months and it is pretty time consuming. I have to meet up with a realtor and they take me to scout places and then my parents will check it out. It is a lot of grunt work that I do for them still.

I have a dog.

My favorite color is blue.

I'm currently reading The Four Hour Work Week. Lately, I've been reading a lot of financial books.

I have a pet dog. I don't have any siblings. I like being alone.

My favorite color is red.

I like pizza. I'm interested in trying pizza from your cafe.

I have been looking for a good book to read. I like books that make you think. I'm interested in reading The Four Hour Work Week. i read a lot of work related articles.

I'm in school majoring in engineering. I plan on working for my family's construction company. I help in the office and I'm comfortable with engineering and construction.

[Speaker 1] How long have you known that you wanted to go into your family's business after you're done with school?

[Speaker 2] I've pretty much known since I was a kid. I used to go into the office with my parents all the time, so it's become like a second home to me.

[Speaker 1] That's great! You and your family must get along well to work together.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm really thankful I get to spend so much time with them. Do you get along with your coworkers?

[Speaker 1] I do! They're really wonderful people. We help each other out a lot.

[Speaker 2] That's good. Getting along with coworkers makes a job way more enjoyable. Do they speak Italian?

[Speaker 1] A couple of them do, so I asked them at some point if they can teach me some basic Italian phrases. I love the culture in general, so it will be nice to learn. Do you speak any other languages?

[Speaker 2] I took Spanish in high school, but I barely remember any of it. Maybe I'll try learning a new language when I have some free time. Is Italian hard?

[Speaker 1] I'm not too sure, but I'll let you know when I start learning!

[Speaker 2] Good luck! Have you read any more of The Four Hour Work Week? I picked up a copy today.

[Speaker 1] Thanks! No, I wanted to but I got busy looking for a movie to watch, then I made a snack. That's great! Let me know how you like it!

[Speaker 2] Sure! Did you find any interesting movies?

I have a dog.

My favorite color is blue.

I get along well with my coworkers.

I do not speak Italian but I would like to learn.

My favorite color is red.

I have been looking for a good book to read. I like books that make you think. I'm interested in reading The Four Hour Work Week. I have the book the Four Hour Work Week. i read a lot of work related articles.

I help my family's business by finding new property. I want to go into the family business. I work with my family.

I do not speak Italian. I am not fluent in Spanish.

[Speaker 1] Since I picked up a copy of that book, I decided I would read it this afternoon. It has been really good! I have enjoyed learning how to work smarter and not harder. I will need to work at the cafe tonight but I did have a little free time.

[Speaker 2] How long did it take you to read? I've had it for a while but I haven't gotten to it yet.

[Speaker 1] I read it for about two hours and I'm a quarter of the way through.  The time flies by though, it's a really interesting read.

[Speaker 2] It sounds interesting. I don't see how I could ever work 4 hours a week as an engineer though! Do you want to do something different than working at the restaurant?

[Speaker 1] Not right now.  I make good money waitressing and I love my coworkers.  Plus I'm picking up some Italian words just by working there.

[Speaker 2] That's great that you love what you do. I do too - even though it's with my family!

[Speaker 1] Nice! Is it ever hard working with your family?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes but we always get along in the end! I'm looking forward to continuing to work with them. We all bring something different to the table.

[Speaker 1] Do you think you'll try to take on a bigger role in the family business in the future?

[Speaker 2] Definitely! Once I finish my degree I'll be able to take on more responsibility and bigger projects.

[Speaker 1] that's good.  I honestly think you're capable of running the business yourself.

[Speaker 2] No way! We work as a team! That's what makes us successful!

I've 3 children.

I have a vacation home in the mountains.

I've a law degree.

I drive an suv.

I've 3 dogs.

I wear cardigans because I hope it makes me look more cultured.

I had one step dad, and fortunately he ignored me.

I hate that I got my brain from the dad I never met.

I don t know if I enjoy programming, or if it s my only choice.

My last name is spanish, but I tell people that it s italian.

I've a lot of kids.
I have a ski house in colorado.
I passed the bar.
I spend a lot of money on gas.
I enjoy having pets.

I a fancy.

My parents are divorced and my mom and I get along well.

I wish I had been able to meet my father because I'm smart like him.

I work with computers.

I come from spain, but most of my friend think I'm from italy.

[Speaker 1] Hey how are you doing

[Speaker 2] Good. It is cold in here. Thank goodness for cardigans!

[Speaker 1] Haha, I enjoy the cold, I vacation in the mountains

[Speaker 2] I have never been. Too busy studying programming all day.

[Speaker 1] Cool, I just got my law degree, starting new job in a week

[Speaker 2] Congratulations! My step dad was a lawyer too. Never liked him though.

[Speaker 1] Haha most people do not like lawyers, any kids?

[Speaker 2] No kids. Traumatized from dead beat dad. No worries. All is good.

[Speaker 1] Well you can do better than he did

[Speaker 2] I'm hoping so. Fortunately, he was smart and so am I.

[Speaker 1] That's really good, I've 2 boys and a girl

[Speaker 2] Wow. That's a lot of kids. Are you married?

[Speaker 1] Yes I'm and 3 dogs as well, big household

[Speaker 2] I love dogs! Your home life sounds great.

I enjoy cold weather. I go on vacation in the mountains.

My new job starts next week. I just obtained my law degree.

I have three children.

I am married. I have three dogs.

I am studying programming. I have never been to the mountains.

My stepdad and I did not get along. My stepdad is a laywer.

I have no kids. I had a deadbeat dad.

I love dogs.

[Speaker 1] When it comes to computer programming, do you study it on your own, or are you in college? My alma mater is Notre Dame, I hated college.

[Speaker 2] I am still studying. It is very difficult, but I am learning a lot. Why didn't you like school?

[Speaker 1] I'm glad you are learning a lot. Honestly, I just wasn't very social in college, so it was hard for me to make friends.

[Speaker 2] That makes sense. I am not super social either, but I've been so busy with school that I wouldn't have much time to hang out anyways. Did you not enjoy law school either?

[Speaker 1] I didn't enjoy law school, but more because of the workload. In order to pay for law school I had a full time job at a local factory and then had to do classes and homework in the few hours that I wasn't working. It just burned me out. It's a lot better now though, so was ultimately worth it!

[Speaker 2] It does seem like a lot of work. What kind of law do you practice now?

[Speaker 1] I'm a defense lawyer and do a lot of pro bono work, which is really fulfilling. I actually just worked on a case that involved dogs that I think you would've liked!

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. It's such important work and so desperately needed. Animal welfare is something that I feel strongly about. You must be a dog fan too if you have three of them?

[Speaker 1] I am! At first we just got them because the kids wanted them, but I am so attached to them now! Dogs just have such a unique way of loving and connecting. I can't imagine our lives without them!

[Speaker 2] That's the same here. When I rescued my dog, I never knew I would grow attached to him. I spend so much time with him since I'm away from home right now.

[Speaker 1] Oh I love that you rescued your dog. I think that is so important! Ours are rescues as well. What kind of dog do you have?

[Speaker 2] He is a whole bunch of everything. :) They said he is a boxer mix, but I think he has a whole lot more than that in him. What about yours?

I just started my new job as a defence lawyer. I am fulfilled in my job.

I have 3 children. I am married. I have 3 rescue dogs.

I just obtained my law degree. My alma mater is Notre Dame. I hated going to college. I worked full time and went to school.

I struggled to make friends in college.

I have never been to the mountains.

I have no kids. I had a deadbeat dad.

I study computer programming. I find school difficult. I'm not very social. I'm very busy with school.

I'm passionate about animal welfare. I love dogs. I rescued my dog. I spend a lot of time with my dog. My dog is a boxer mix but we don't know for sure.

[Speaker 1] One I my kids just covered my himself and our dogs in flour, I can't even be mad. It's soo funny.

[Speaker 2] Which of the three did that? I bet it was your youngest.

[Speaker 1] It sure was! I was laughing so hard. I wish I had a picture to show you.

[Speaker 2] Did it take long to get your 3 dogs cleaned up?

[Speaker 1] Over an hour! Such a pain.

[Speaker 2] Has the weather warmed up there or are you still enjoy your winter wonderland?

[Speaker 1] It is still somewhat chilly. I am ready for warm weather!

[Speaker 2] How is the new job going? My stepdad is a lawyer too but he was in civil law and not a defence lawyer like you.

[Speaker 1] I much prefer working to school, that is for sure! The work is interesting and I feel like I am making a real difference.

[Speaker 2] How have the children adapted to having you working full-time?

[Speaker 1] They have been really supportive. They are proud of me and that feels really good!

[Speaker 2] That is wonderful to hear. I bet the dogs are excited when you get home every day!

[Speaker 1] I love robots as a kid so I decided to do it for a living

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. Where are you from?

[Speaker 1] New york, I'm single and live alone I love it

[Speaker 2] I live in new york as well upstate, with my husband 2 kids.

[Speaker 1] Wow that sounds great I am a night owl what about you?

[Speaker 2] I am a night owl as well. Do you travel much?

I am a night owl.

I love New York style pizza.

[Speaker 1] I was looking at future vacation destinations online. I was narrowing my trip down to Russia, Germany, and Estonia. Do you have friends living there? I wanted to go sometime in the off season next Spring.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have a few friends in Russia. Are you looking for a place to stay? I'm sure they could give me a recommendation.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I'm looking for something during the summer. I never been outside the US before, so planning this trip has been a learning experience for me.

[Speaker 2] That sounds exciting. I've been to Russia a few times, before I had kids, it's beautiful in the Spring. Are you going alone

[Speaker 1] Yup, this is a solo trip. The farthest I've been from home is traveling two sates over to visit relatives once a year. Now, I'm going to be on the other side of the planet alone in a foreign land. That's both exciting and scary to think about.

[Speaker 2] It will be life changing I'm sure. I think it's better to go alone. You get to explore when and how you want to. It's so much harder to travel freely now that I have kids. Enjoy it while you can!

[Speaker 1] Thank you. I'm sure to enjoy the trip! How often do you travel both nationally and internationally?

[Speaker 2] We only travel internationally once a year now. It's expensive with a family. But we love going on road trips a few times and year and camping in the warmer months.

[Speaker 1] I'd imagine going on trips with kids can e a headache, even more so international trips. I sure don't envy you.

[Speaker 2] Yes, it can be quite difficult. I have to try to find a way to go on at least one trip a year on my own. For my sanity's sake!

[Speaker 1] Hah. Maybe going on a solo trip isn't so scary when compared to dealing with rowdy kids on a plane. How many friends have you made so far from your trips?

[Speaker 2] Oh too many to count! A few on each continent. It's one of the best parts of traveling. I hope you meet some new friends on your travels.

I make robots for a living. I loved robots as a kid.

I am a night owl.

I want to go on vacation in Spring.

I've never been outside the US.

My job is as a coordinator.

I live in upstate New York. I love New York style pizza. I am married with 2 children.

I am a night owl.

I love road trips. I have friends worldwide. I have friends in Russia. I've been to Russia. I like traveling alone. I have friends on each continent.

[Speaker 1] I found a vacation spot for this upcoming spring, it's in Russia and I was wondering if you could put me in touch with your friend there.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, of course. What part of Russia are going to?

[Speaker 1] The Moscow area. Got friends there?

[Speaker 2] Yeah I do! What would like to know?

[Speaker 1] Well, its a new adventure for me. What do I need to know? That's the motivation for asking about friends. They live there and know whats up!

[Speaker 2] Oh of course! I'll let them know you're asking.  I'm sure they can tell you the best places to go and stay around Moscow. Any places you really want to visit? I

[Speaker 1] The Cathedrals would be cool to see. Correct me if I'm wrong but they are among the most amazing in the world.

[Speaker 2] Yes, of course. St. Basil's Cathedral is really famous and beautiful. I usually visit Russia for the nature though, so I haven't even seen the Cathedral myself.

[Speaker 1] What is close that I might be interested in?

[Speaker 2] It's not really close at all, but Lake Baikal is stunning. I've been to St. Petersburg, so I can tell you more about that city, and it's closer to Moscow.

[Speaker 1] That is a no joke drive! But very doable in a day. Two weeks is what I have set aside so I'll have time for it. It looks like a beautiful spot on the map.

[Speaker 2] Yes, the whole place is gorgeous. That's going to be an amazing first trip out of the US!

I am a night owl.

I plan to travel to Moscow this upcoming spring.I don't know what to do in Russia. I would like to visit the Cathedrals in Russia. I plan to spend 2 weeks in Russia.  I have never traveled outside the United States.

My job is as a coordinator.

I am a night owl.

I love road trips. I have friends worldwide. I have friends in Moscow. I've been to Russia. I like traveling alone. I have friends on each continent.

I have been to Russia several times. I have visited St. Petersburg.

[Speaker 1] I found a great deal on tickets to Moscow.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, Moscow! I know you said last time we talked you did not know what to do, but do you have any ideas now?

[Speaker 1] I'm definitely going to check out the Kremlin and Red Square! If I can get tickets, I might see a show at the Bolshoi, too.

[Speaker 2] I'm glad you were able to find some things to do! What kind of shows to they have at the Bolshoi?

[Speaker 1] Ballets and operas, mostly. Do you plan to make any trips anytime soon?

[Speaker 2] Not yet, but I'm getting that itch to go travelling again. Things are just much harder to plan now that we have two children. Half the time is making sure they are okay

[Speaker 1] How old are the kids? Are they in school yet?

[Speaker 2] Not yet, they are both 2 because they are twins. It was unexpected, but a really nice surprise. We haven't gone on a trip since they were born so I have no idea how they will react

[Speaker 1] 2 is pretty young to be traveling internationally, I agree. I'm sure it's a handful dealing with two toddlers at the same time!

[Speaker 2] It really is, but we love them to death. I've been told to enjoy it while they're this age because once they are teenagers I am going to wish for them to be babies again.

[Speaker 1] Haha my parents are still complaining about me as a teenager, and I've long aged out of that period!

[Speaker 2] Oh man, I don't know if I like hearing that! I am going to take a lot of pictures so it will be even easier to reminisce during those scary times!

[Speaker 1] I take it zucchini bread is your favorite? I personally love pistachio icecream

[Speaker 2] Being weird is my favorite. Just like my favorite pony, rainbow dash

[Speaker 1] I do not mind weird. I actually watch videos of surgeries in my spare time!

[Speaker 2] Cool! Are you a doctor?

[Speaker 1] No, that is why its weird. I tend to just travel around making friends

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun! Do you have any other hobbies?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I love playing with edged weapons. I know that sounds weird too

[Speaker 2] Neat! Like swords and axes?

[Speaker 1] Yes! I show them to all the people I meet. Its fun

[Speaker 2] Oh that's so thoughtful! Which one?

[Speaker 1] Have you seen Your Name?

[Speaker 2] I don't know that one. What is it about? I meant to tell you... my dad finally bought me that samurai sword!

[Speaker 1] It's like a romantic fantasy film about these kids who form a special connection. It made me cry!  Great news about the sword, that's so cool.  How are your pets?

[Speaker 2] Oh that sounds like something I would like! Thanks for the recommendation. I will let you know what I think. Yeah! I am so excited, I am going to hang it over my bed! They are good! Kevin Bacon is sitting on my lap right now nibbling on my sweatshirt.

[Speaker 1] Aw, give him a little scratch for me.  I have been applying for jobs all day, starting to get a bit bored of it!

[Speaker 2] Will do! Good for you, I'm glad. What kind of jobs are you looking for? Do you see a lot of postings?

[Speaker 1] Anything I can find really, supermarket staff, wait staff, bar staff, admin worker.  There are quite a few postings, but I don't have much experience so I don't know if I'll get any call backs.  Do you have a job or are you studying?

[Speaker 2] Okay best of luck! You seem very personable so I am sure you will land a job in no time! I work full time, I stared a small landscaping company a couple years ago.

[Speaker 1] Thank you. Wow, your own company, that's very impressive.  What's it like being your own boss?

[Speaker 2] It is great! I worked in a cubicle for as a summer student and I hated it to much. I like the freedom of being my accountable to myself only. Are you handy? If you don't mind manual labour we could always use a hand. I will be honest the pay isn't great but its something.

I like pistachio icecream.

I like videos of surgeries.

I like anime.

I am unemployed. I'm applying for jobs. I do not have a lot of job experience.

I have a pony called Rainbow Dash and a cat named Kevin Bacon.

I like anime.

My dad bought me a samurai sword.

I like anime.

I work full time at a small landscaping company I started a couple years ago.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great! If you give me the info to apply for your company, I'll do it right now.

[Speaker 2] Sure, sounds good. I can email it over to you in a little while. Did you end up applying to any more jobs after we spoke?

[Speaker 1] Great, thank you. I basically spam-applied to every available position I could find within my area on Indeed. My options are fairly limited due to my lack of work experience.

[Speaker 2] I get it. The job market can definitely be tough. I'll make sure to send over that info to you later. Are you doing anything fun this evening after your busy day of applying?

[Speaker 1] Nothing too special. I need to sharpen my swords so I'll do that for a bit and then probably watch some Dragon Ball Z. How are you liking your work, by the way? Figure I might as well get a bit of the inside scoop in case I get hired.

[Speaker 2] I like it but the work is tough. I hire good employees, so that makes things easier. It's nice being outside, too. I'm just not the biggest fan of hot weather lol

[Speaker 1] I hear you on that last bit, just being outside on those days is bad enough so it must be challenging to be working hard labor on top of that. That's good that it has been working out well though. How are you liking your samurai sword? Do you practice with it?

[Speaker 2] I like the samurai sword, but I have it on display. I want to make sure not to damage it in any way.

[Speaker 1] Fair enough, I totally get that. A quality sword like that deserves to be taken care of, good job. How's Kevin been lately?

[Speaker 2] Other than him nibbling on my sweatshirt before, he's had a busy few hours of napping, playing with a stuffed mouse, and looking out the window. It must be tough being a cat! haha. Hopefully you'll be able to get a cat of your own soon.

[Speaker 1] Haha yeah, it's a tough life but somebody's gotta be the cat of the house. I'm glad Kevin is up for the challenge. And hopefully, but that's a bit away after being steadily employed for a bit. If I'm going to get a cat, I want to be responsible about it.

[Speaker 2] Yea that makes sense. All the cat food and toys on a daily basis are expensive! Worth it, but expensive. Also need to be prepared for vet visits.

I like pistachio icecream.

I like videos of surgeries.

I enjoy playing with edged weapons. I have swords and axes. I will sharpen my swords. I will watch Dragon Ball Z.

I like anime.

I am unemployed. I do not have a lot of job experience. I am applying for a lot of jobs. I do not have work experience.

I do not like hot weather.

I would like to get a cat.

I like anime.

My dad bought me a samurai sword. I only display my samurai sword in order to not damage it.

I like anime.

I will email job information. I like my job. My job is tough. I hire people at my job. I like being outside. I do not like hot weather.

My cat is expensive to take care of.

[Speaker 1] Have you taken on any interesting landscaping jobs lately? It must be fun to design yards for people.

[Speaker 2] Oh boy have I! I think I am going to have to step in and take the lead instead of sending my employees out. It is a doozy.

[Speaker 1] Is it a big job?  Why is it causing problems?

[Speaker 2] It is only an acre or so, but this client is VERY particular, and all she wants EVERYWHERE is gnomes. And I mean statues, bushes shaped like gnomes, you name it.

[Speaker 1] My goodness! She must think she's Snow White or something!  That sounds like a tough job. I'm sure some of the people that hire your company can be pretty eccentric.

[Speaker 2] They can, and she really isn't  the worst we've had, but I have my work cut out for me.

[Speaker 1] Well, at least it's work and it's challenging.  I wish I could find something a little more challenging than flipping burgers.

[Speaker 2] That isn't the most glamorous, but wouldn't you say it is better than no job at all? Besides, EVERYONE loves burgers. I bet gnome lady is daydreaming about a gnome eating one right now.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, but I want a job where I can actually learn something useful.  Although, if I don't find something to do, I guess I will have to go back to saying "want fries with that?".

[Speaker 2] Could you do something with all those fancy weapons of yours?

[Speaker 1] I might be able to teach stage combat or something. It's amazing how often they get it wrong.  I'll have to search for theater groups that might have something for me to do.

[Speaker 2] Wow! That is really a fantastic idea! I bet some university theatre programs would eat it up!

[Speaker 1] Hello. How is your day going?

[Speaker 2] Its a bit crazy, my tires were slashed this morning. I need to move.

[Speaker 1] Sorry to hear that. No one needs that. I've been busy making soap

[Speaker 2] That's cool, do you have your own business too?

[Speaker 1] No I just like to do things for myself. I also make compost for my garden.

[Speaker 2] Its always good to be self sufficient, I don't like being controlled by companies.

[Speaker 1] I feel the same way. I eat most of the fruit that I grow

[Speaker 2] How is it? Used to grow fruit but earned a bad reputation. I hate it.

[Speaker 1] I like the fresh produce. What did you grow?

[Speaker 2] My favorite was strawberries. I was too harsh on my standards though and quit.

[Speaker 1] I understand that I am particular too. What do you do for fun?

[Speaker 2] A bit of light reading here and there, yourself?

[Speaker 1] I work in my garden and enjoy cooking

[Speaker 2] What do you like to cook?

[Speaker 1] I cook vegetables. Soups and salads mostly

[Speaker 2] Soup is always nice. Do you have a favorite dish?

Potato soup is my favorite.

I own a car.
I like strawberries.
I do light reading sometimes.

[Speaker 1] Have you gotten your tires fixed?

[Speaker 2] I did, finally! The car drives much smoother now. Have you created any new fragrances for your soap lately?

[Speaker 1] Good for you. Safety comes first! I am working on a new combination that I hope will work and sell. How does it sound to you the combination of peach and lemon thyme?

[Speaker 2] Oh, that sounds wonderful! You should really consider starting your own business. You would do great at it! Would you be willing to share your potato soup recipe with me?

[Speaker 1] You know what, I think I will, but in the future. Right now I am happy as I am. I do a job that doesn't stress me, I have my little garden where I relax. I am not ready yet to get all the responsibilities of a new business on me.

[Speaker 2] It is a lot of stress to undertake. I am in awe that you grow your own foods! I have considered growing strawberries next season. Perhaps you could give me some tips?

[Speaker 1] Thanks! First of all you should check if your soil is adapt for strawberries. Then I would say you need to check that you garden or whatever you want to grow your strawberries has a lot of light. They really need a lot of sun. And at this point I would check also the quality of the water that you are going to use.

[Speaker 2] I live in a well shaded location. I don't have much sunlight, but the soil here is wonderful! Is there any fruit that is ideal for growing in areas such as mine?

[Speaker 1] At this point, considering what you said, I would suggest to abandon the idea of the strawberries and move on cherries, raspberries or blackberries. Would you like to cultivate them?

[Speaker 2] I enjoy eating berries. I think I will purchase some books on growing raspberries and blackberries. Do you recommend any particluar books about fruit cultivation? Did you use books to help you get started?

[Speaker 1] Not really. What I know, I learned from my father. He's always been passionate about gardening.

[Speaker 2] That is a wonderful passion for a father to share with his son! I am grateful live in close proximity to my parents. Do you live far from your father?

I make soap.

I grow my own fruit.

I cook.

Potato soup is my favorite.

I make soap. I am working on new fragrances for it.

I have a recipe for potato soup. I am happy. My job doesn't stress me. I relax in my little garden. I do not want to start my own business yet.

I grow my own food.

I do light reading sometimes.

I just got the tires fixed on my car.

I live in a well-shaded location. I don't have much sunlight, but I have good soil. I live near my parents.

I like strawberries. I enjoy eating berries. I want to read about growing berries. I have considered growing strawberries.

[Speaker 1] So after the conversation we had last time, I grabbed a couple books about growing berries from the library. It's actually pretty interesting.

[Speaker 2] That is so cool to hear what do you think you will start to grow your own berries soon too?

[Speaker 1] I hope so. I want to grow strawberries and blueberries.

[Speaker 2] Yum those will be so good, you can make lot of good food with fresh berries maybe some pies or soap. How has your job been going?

[Speaker 1] It's been going great mostly due to the fact that I can sit back and chill in my garden. I don't know what I would do without that.

[Speaker 2] Very nice im sure that is relaxing, have you made any new fragrances for your soaps yet?

[Speaker 1] I am thinking about trying a strawberry scent as soon as I am able to grow some. Have you thought about growing some berries of your own?

[Speaker 2] Yes I have thought about growing strawberries many times but I have wondered how well they will do in my shady yard.

[Speaker 1] From what I have read they should do well as long as you water them well an\d have good soil.

[Speaker 2] Okay good to know! I will try and start soon then! What other things do you grow in your garden?

[Speaker 1] I want to do all fruit, hopefully some watermelons and a few orange and apple trees.

[Speaker 2] Nice that sounds delicious! Does your garden get a lot of sunlight or is it in the shade aswell?

I make soap.

I grow my own fruit.

I cook.

Potato soup is my favorite.

I grow my own food.

I learned about growing fruit from my father. He loves gardening. I am a male. I went to the library and got some books on growing berries.

I want to grow strawberries and blueberries. I am going to make a soap out of the strawberries I grow. I want to grow other fruits like watermelons, oranges, and apples.

My job doesn't require me to do much.

I do light reading sometimes.

I just got the tires fixed on my car.

I like strawberries and blueberries. I want to read about growing berries. I have considered growing strawberries. My yard is shady. I will try to grow berries.

[Speaker 1] I just made a new soap fragrance. Do you want to try it?

[Speaker 2] Absolutely. What does it smell like?

[Speaker 1] I made it with strawberries and vanilla. I think it is a relaxing scent.

[Speaker 2] That sounds wonderful! You know that I'm a sucker for berries! lol. You're so creative! How do you come up with ideas for new scents?

[Speaker 1] i am into aromatherapy. i think if it makes you feel better you are more likely to enjoy it. vanilla is a soothing scent.

[Speaker 2] I worry that if I use strawberry-flavored soap, I'm just going to crave strawberries the rest of the day! lol.

[Speaker 1] yes. that sounds like it might happen. strawberries on the skin is beneficial

[Speaker 2] Someday I'm going to have to learn how to garden from you. I've wanted to do it for the longest time, but I don't even know where to start. And you're such a good grower!

[Speaker 1] at the end of march into april is great for growing your berries. there are requirements. but, a beginner would pick up quickly. such things as not planting in saturated soil and how to plant without covering the crown.

[Speaker 2] I don't get a lot of sun where I live. Is that going to be a problem?

[Speaker 1] raspberries do not but most berries do need full sun...you can grow inside and create a false light

[Speaker 2] Maybe that's what I'll do then! I should also follow your lead and head to the library to get some gardening books. No need to reinvent the wheel, right?

[Speaker 1] Oh that's awesome. School is okay. I'm in grad school for music education, actually.

[Speaker 2] Amazing. Is that your passion?

[Speaker 1] Absolutely. Music is so important to me and I want to share it with others. Does your band play a lot of gigs?

[Speaker 2] I love that. I feel the same way. We play twice a month at a local pub. Something fun and good beer money.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like so much fun. Do you play weddings or any other events?

[Speaker 2] We haven't yet but would love to. If you know anyone looking, let me know!

[Speaker 1] I am getting married soon and looking for a band! Do you play covers?

[Speaker 2] Oh wow. Congrats. Yes, anything you want!

[Speaker 1] We've finally settled on a location and a date for our wedding, I'd be honored, and willing to pay, if you were to play at it.

[Speaker 2] That's so exciting. I'd love to be a part of your special day. Where is your wedding going to be?

[Speaker 1] Sure, I would like to arrange a band for the party too. How you got interested into music/

[Speaker 2] We can play the party as well. We know a lot of great covers. I started getting into it in high school with my friends.

[Speaker 1] Great man, so far how many functions have you performed?

[Speaker 2] We've only done 1 wedding, but we played for 2 parties. We also perform every week at a pub. What kind of music do you like?

[Speaker 1] I love jazz and rock personally.

[Speaker 2] Very cool! Those are great genres. Do you have a favorite musical artist?

[Speaker 1] I am a big fan of James Brown since childhood.

[Speaker 2] Get up offa that thing! Shake until you feel better.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that his one of the biggest hits. He is a legend.

I am in a band with my high school friends for 2 years. I love playing the drums. We started the band because we wanted to jam. My band plays twice a month at a local pub. My band is open to playing weddings and other events. My band will play cover songs.  I play a lot of covers with my band. I started getting into music in high school.

I've played at weddings, parties, and pubs.

[Speaker 1] I have figured out some songs I want you to play at the wedding.

[Speaker 2] Awesome we're excited to play for you! What were you thinking?

[Speaker 1] Old-school classic rock is my favorite. Anything from AC/DC and Bruce Springsteen to the Beatles or Stones. It's all amazing. Now my future wife...she might have some input too. LOL

[Speaker 2] That's great. We love to cover classic rock! Now is there anything we definitely shouldn't play? Wedding bands never ask that and they should!

[Speaker 1] Yes, anything that is too campy. The chicken dance, the hokey pokey, that kind of thing. Actually, if you can play anything from the movie, "The Wedding Singer," I'd be fine with that. What kind of music do you like to play best?

[Speaker 2] I think it's the most fun to cover 80s hair metal bands like White Snake! But we really dig playing early U2 even a little R.E.M. sometimes. You guys need to think about your first dance song!

[Speaker 1] Yes, hair band music can be so much fun! We're still negotiating our first dance song. She wants something from Celine Dion. I'm a big fan of the late Luther Vandross, so we'll see who wins. What am I thinking? It'll be something from Celine Dion. LOL.

[Speaker 2] I mean yeah... you know the wedding day is actually all about the bride!

[Speaker 1] You are obviously a man who has worked a few weddings in his lifetime! You couldn't be more correct. Now that you're not living with your folks anymore, when are you going to settle down?

[Speaker 2] No rush, my man! I'm still enjoying the single life and the pub scene!

[Speaker 1] Enjoy it while you can. You're young and in a band. You should be living the life!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm just young and having fun! I just love that I can make a living with music.

[Speaker 2] You should i would love to see you there! Maybe I can help you find a job there! Are you still looking or do you found one already?

[Speaker 1] The library job keeps me busy, but I would be interested in helping with the football team part time

[Speaker 2] Of course we just talked about it sorry! My head it's been all over the place these days, between football and my roof bussines I've been super busy!

[Speaker 1] You have a lot on your plate. I think you need to take time to relax once in awhile, maybe read a good book? The library has a huge selection of sci-fi books I think you would enjoy

[Speaker 2] You're right! That will be very helpful, and it's been quite a while since a read a good sci-fi book; a nice mistery novel would be nice! Do you still read as much as when we were in highschool?

[Speaker 1] Now that I'm working so much, I have less time to read. I have been listening to audio books before bed at night to help me relax. We should read the same book and have a discussion, I have always wanted to start a book club

[Speaker 2] Perfect! I'll let you choose first, you've always had great taste in literature I'm sure you'll pick a great one! We can read the book and then go out for those drinks and discuss all about it, I can pick you up in my truck!

[Speaker 1] Wow that's amazing! I wish I could do that myself, could help my diet

[Speaker 2] Grab a bunch of green apples they are my favorite. Mostly the skins lol

[Speaker 1] My dogs love apple skins! Its funny you should mention that. Have pets?

[Speaker 2] Nope, would love one eventually. What kind of dog do you have?

[Speaker 1] I've 2 pugs and a new kitten. They are still warming up to each other lol

[Speaker 2] Pugs are adorable little goof balls. Bet learning to play with a kitten is new!

[Speaker 1] They are the stand up comics of dogs lol. So, when did you become a vegetarian?

[Speaker 2] Early teenage years. Was probably a phase for a while but then it just stuck really.

[Speaker 1] That's pretty much what happened to me with going to the gym lol

[Speaker 2] Are you a big gym nut? I like to lift and keep fit.

[Speaker 1] I practically live at the gym. Staying fit is the key to a long life

[Speaker 2] I hope its that simple. Makes you wonder about some of the fatties living til 90.

I like pets. I'm going to be a veterinarian.

My dogs love to eat apple skins.

I have 2 dogs and 1 cat.

I love going to the gym.

I love animals.

[Speaker 1] I have been going to the gym daily and tried some new exercises.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome ! What exercises have you been doing ? I recently got into the gym too and love how much progress I've made

[Speaker 1] I do mostly do cardio at the gym, and I also do weight lifting. Good for you! What exercies do you usually do? It is sometimes hard for me to get motivared to go to the gym, but I feel good when I am there and working out.

[Speaker 2] Awesome , I want to start doing cardio, I mostly lift weights because I'm trying to gain muscle, but summers in few moths so I might have to hop onto the treadmill and shed a few pounds to get ready. And same going there initially was so hard for me , but what really helped me was having a friend to go with , because when I felt lazy theyd force me to go.

[Speaker 1] I run on the treadmill a lot. It is a good workout. Having someone else to go with and hold you accountable is always a good thing. Maybe you and I can to the gym together sometime. Which gym do you go to?

[Speaker 2] Omg yeah that'd be awesome. I go to equinox, I go to planet fitness , it's opposite my apartment which is a big incentive for me since I don't have a car and I'd have to walk 30 minutes  to get to the second closet gym

[Speaker 1] I can go with you to your gym. I think that I can go to any location. Let me know when is a good time for us to go. Maybe we can do a class there.

[Speaker 2] I usually go in the evening at around 4-5pm , yeah it'd be pretty fun to try a class together, I haven't tried one before. Are there any classes you take regularly?

[Speaker 1] The evening works for me.  I do a variety of classes- yoga, zumba, hip hop dance. And I am always willing to try something new.  I have really been wanting to try a hot yoga class and a P90x class.

[Speaker 2] I've read so much about hot yoga , It'd be pretty fun to try it. I haven't heard of P90x before what is that?

[Speaker 1] We should check and see if and when your gym has as hot yoga. P90x is a very high impact, high energy, intense workout. I do it at home sometimes, but I never done a class. It is pretty tough, but it is such a good workout. It works every muscle of your body.

[Speaker 2] Wow that sounds awesome and something I need , I do the same routine everyday and it'd be fun to switch it up with a P90x class. Yeah when i go to the gym today I'm going to ask them if they do hot yoga, I also want to start learning how to cook healthy meals, right now im super lazy and usually have frozen food or a protein shake after my workouts, I havnt  cooked from scratch in months. Do you have any good recipes ?

My dogs love to eat apple skins. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat.

I go to the gym daily. I mostly do cardio, treadmill, and some weights. I take yoga, zumba, and hip hop dance classes at the gym. I'd also like to do hot yoga and P90x.

Sometimes I do P90 at home.

I love animals. I don't eat meat.

I don't have a dog.

I recently started going to the gym. I'm trying to gain muscle, but also want to lose weight for summer. I go to equinox and planet fitness.

I don't have a car.

I go to the gym in the evenings, 4-5PM.

I want to learn how to cook healthy meals.

[Speaker 1] I found a good YouTube channel on how to cook healthy meals.

[Speaker 2] Great! Do they have any recipes that could help me to gain weight, I'm trying to put up some muscle because i want to go to the beach this summer!

[Speaker 1] Yeah, do you eat milk products?

[Speaker 2] Yes i still haven't gone full vegan so I'm ok with dairy products but only organic! You could give me some advise on a couple of routines with weights, could you?

[Speaker 1] Sure, you should get into proper diet. You should eat a lot of nuts and other cereals.

[Speaker 2] I'll take that into account for my diet! What time do you usually go to the gym, we could do some work out together, I think it will be nice to have a gym buddy! Do you do other type of exercise other than weights?

[Speaker 1] What kind of person are you? Morning or evening?

[Speaker 2] I'm more of a evening person! I usually work out between 4 to 5 pm, is that a good hour for you?

[Speaker 1] Oh. Am kind of a morning person, I workout once I get up.

[Speaker 2] That's ok! I'm sure there are some good trainers at Planet Fitness that could help me! I would workout in the morning but between work and some online cooking classes I'm taking I don't think I could make it!

[Speaker 1] You can, you have to schedule your time according to it. Fitness is 30% workout, 70% diet.

[Speaker 2] I know, i was referring to working out on mornings, I just don't have time! But i'm determined to get ride of this extra weight! Do you take your dogs with you when go out to do cardio?

[Speaker 1] Doing pretty good. I'm just sitting here listening to my favorite band pearl jam.

[Speaker 2] I love pearl jam, what do you do for fun?

[Speaker 1] I like to go hiking and riding my bike, weather is permitting, here in boston.

[Speaker 2] When I visited boston, I froze my butt off. I volunteer at animal shelters

[Speaker 1] Cool, I wish I could find the time, I work late nights and sleep in the day.

[Speaker 2] I work night shifts as well, but I've learned to live on way less sleep

[Speaker 1] Lol. I wish I could. What else do you do in your spare time?

[Speaker 2] I watch quite a bit of football, and I try and travel as much as possible

[Speaker 1] Where do you live at?

[Speaker 2] A little north of the houston area, pretty warm here

[Speaker 1] If you ever visit boston again, maybe we can meet for coffee.

[Speaker 2] That would be cool, I have family up in that area

My favorite band is Pearl Jam.

I like to hike and ride my bike. I live in Boston.

I work late nights.

I love Pearl Jam.
I volunteer at animal shelters.
I work night shifts.
I watch football. I like to travel.
I live north of Houston.
I have family in Boston.

[Speaker 1] How do you like volunteering at the animal shelter? The animals must be really cute, but it must be hard not adopting all of them. Houston must be pretty nice this time of year.

[Speaker 2] Yeah they can be really cute and I struggle to not come home with them all haha. But its always nice to see them get adopted and leave with a new family. I think this is my favorite time of year actually feburary going into march. How is it back in Boston?

[Speaker 1] It is cold! We have had several snow events this year as well. I bet you don't see that in Houston!

[Speaker 2] No we havent haha. I miss the snow though its always really pretty and can be pretty fun if youre feeling childish haha

[Speaker 1] Yes, it has it moments. But I wish winter would only last a month or so.

[Speaker 2] Aww no I miss it. It's part of Boston! Maybe you should move to the Caribbean that might be more you

[Speaker 1] Well then I would get no winter at all! Do you ever consider moving?

[Speaker 2] I do sometimes consider going back to Boston. My family are there and I like the city so maybe one day. But at the moment Im settled and I can always visit when I want. How about you? Would you move for better weather?

[Speaker 1] Possibly. I would be able to bike and hike more often in a warmer environment and that really appeals to me.

[Speaker 2] I like hiking places when I travel. But with working night shifts I never really find time to go out walking or biking when Im at home. Im either at work or asleep during the day. Its not the best :/

[Speaker 1] The late nights do make it more challenging, I'll give you that.

[Speaker 2] How do you find all the nights? Any tips for how to survive?

My favorite band is Pearl Jam.

I work late nights.

I dont like the snow. I like the winter. I like being outdoors and warm weather.

I love Pearl Jam.

I volunteer at animal shelters.

I work night shifts. I like hiking but i work too much.

I watch football. I like to travel.

I live north of Houston. I like houston but I do miss boston. I have family in Boston. I miss the snow.

[Speaker 1] we had a huge snow storm and i have not been able to be outside much.  it has been way to cold

[Speaker 2] I would have been making so many recipes if I was stuck inside in the cold haha. Do you like to cook?

[Speaker 1] It's nice when I have energy, but I'm usually too tired from work.

[Speaker 2] Yea I get it. I like to cook on my days off, and since I work nights, during the week I'll usually get up in time to make a nice dinner.

[Speaker 1] What kind of food do you like cooking? I usually use a cookbook.

[Speaker 2] I really like making Italian food. How about you?

[Speaker 1] Italian food is pretty good! I'm not partial to any particular cuisines, I'm just happy as long as it tastes good. Have you volunteered at the shelter lately?

[Speaker 2] I was really busy with work the last few days, but I'm planning on going within the next week. I miss seeing all the animals!

[Speaker 1] I bet it's great stress relief to look after all the cute critters. What kinds of jobs do you do at the shelter?

[Speaker 2] It definitely is a stress relief. I clean out the crates, give fresh water, and basically help make sure all the animals are comfortable and happy.

[Speaker 1] That sounds nice. Maybe I should adopt a dog to go hiking with me.

[Speaker 2] That's a great idea! They're such good companions. There are a lot of wonderful dogs who need good homes.

[Speaker 2] I haven't, I just have not had the time. Although I am hoping to read a little bit more soon. Any suggestions?

[Speaker 1] I'd recommend the classics.  The Great Gatsby and Catcher in the Rye are good ones.  Crime and Punishment is good if you're up for a tougher read.

[Speaker 2] I loved the great gatsby and catcher in the rye, have not read Crime and Punishment yet, although it is on my list! Have you read it completely?

[Speaker 1] I did.  It's really long so it'll probably take a while, but it's very interesting.
