[Speaker 1] Hi what are you up to tonight?

[Speaker 2] Editing my manuscript. Would you like to read it?

[Speaker 1] I could edit it for you. I am in school to be an english teacher

[Speaker 2] Perfect! It is set in africa and is about a girl and her zebra.

[Speaker 1] Sounds interesting. I moved from africa when I was only 5

[Speaker 2] Do you remember any of it? The girl crosses the namib desert and almost loses her zebra.

[Speaker 1] I remember a little. Having to watch out for wild animals when outside

[Speaker 2] Some places are dangerous. Did you always want to be a teacher?

[Speaker 1] Yes I did. I hope to find a job when I graduate next september

[Speaker 2] If my manuscript is accepted I hope they cast me in the movie.

[Speaker 1] Is that common for the author to act in the movie? Would be cool

[Speaker 2] Works for sam lee and even steven king had his cameos.

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah didn't think of that. I hope it works for you

[Speaker 2] Stan lee I mean. I auditioned for mary jane in one of those movies.

[Speaker 1] Are you an actress too? My brother is in a band but famous life is not for me

[Speaker 2] Aspiring. There must have been milk in something I ate that day, got so sick.

I lived in Africa.

I am graduating next September.

My brother is in a band.

I am lactose intolerant.

[Speaker 1] Have you finished  editing your manuscript?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have.  I am in the waiting process.  My fingers are crossed.

[Speaker 1] That is very exciting! Congratulations and good luck! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too! What is the script about?

[Speaker 2] The script is a space opera.  I am hoping to land a part as a general in the Intergalactic Army.

[Speaker 1] That sounds super cool! Would you like a lot of speaking in the movie, or a smaller talking part?

[Speaker 2] I would mainly be part of an action scene.  It would be near the end of the movie during the climactic war.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a lot of fun! Have you done many of these kind of scenes before?

[Speaker 2] No, this is my first time.  I am very nervous.  This could be the start of a great career.

[Speaker 1] It definitly could be a great start!!! I am sure you will be great!!! Just try to breath and think positive. Good luck. My brother started a great career in a band. He always wanted to do it and went for one gig in a small bar, and now he is pretty popular. That's his only source of income, and he is well off.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, this seems like a real make or break opportunity.  I am staying positive.  If this doesn't work out, then I am still young enough to start another venture.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that is always important!! Do you know what else you might want to do?

[Speaker 2] I have no idea at this point.  The future is unknown, but that is what makes it so exciting.

I am in school to be a teacher and am able to edit a manuscript. I am graduating next September.

I lived in Africa.

My brother is in a band.

I hope my manuscript is selected and I am in a movie. I have sent out a manuscript for review. I am nervous about getting the part I want in my manuscript.

I am lactose intolerant.

I am young. I enjoy the mystery of my unknown future.

[Speaker 1] What is your manuscript about?

[Speaker 2] It's a script for a movie about a road trip across the USA. I'm hoping it gets picked up! How is school going?

[Speaker 1] Been rough.  This place was always woke but everyone has lost their minds this year.  It's like Mao's China in here. LOL

[Speaker 2] LOL sounds rough. My next script should be about that haha. How's the surfing going?

[Speaker 1] Surfing?  I don't surf.  And I'm confused.  I thought your script was about a girl and zebra in Africa?

[Speaker 2] My bad, getting my messages mixed up. I wasn't trying for spoilers but yeah, Africa's involved. And a girl. And many many zebras. It's a pretty wild road trip.

[Speaker 1] Okay...  That's way different than the script you said you'd submitted.  Did they ask for edits or something.  I thought it was all  going well?!

[Speaker 2] They wanted to tie it in as a spiritual sequel to one of their other films. It is going well though.

[Speaker 1] Is the part you wanted to write for yourself still going to happen?  I hope!

[Speaker 2] Yeah but it's just a small role. I'm still pretty excited about it!

[Speaker 1] Oh, good!  You seemed more excited about the little role than about having your screenplay made.  You sure you're not wanting to be an actress?

[Speaker 2] I'm excited for both to be honest. Who knows, maybe your brother could get involved in the soundtrack.

[Speaker 2] Yes we could line up some whiskey shots!  What will the theme of your next party be?

[Speaker 1] I was thinking of doing a parent style themed party where everyone dresses how their parents used to.

[Speaker 2] Oh that would be great! But you might have to specify a decade because that could narrow it down for people

[Speaker 1] Thats true, I was thinking late 80's to early 90's. I have my cutoff jean shorts like my dad used to wear ready to go haha

[Speaker 2] Love some good jortz!  How about flip flops with socks?

[Speaker 1] I like the flip flops and socks look but I also have a pair of the Nike Air Monarchs ready for the party too, the typical dad shoe!

[Speaker 2] Of course that is a classic! I can't wait to see the 80's hair on all the girls!

I love honey whiskey shots.

I am going to buy a beach house on the coast of the Outer Banks. When I buy my beach house, I want to throw a party that is parent style themed.

[Speaker 1] Very briefly, but they only live there part time.

[Speaker 2] Awesome! So it's nice and quiet around there, I imagine? Lucky you! You hit the jackpot!

[Speaker 1] Hey there, how is it going?

[Speaker 2] I am doing well. Just playing the guitar.

[Speaker 1] My truck is warming up, getting ready to head to work.

[Speaker 2] Sounds exciting! Where do you work?

[Speaker 1] As long as the weather holds, I do roofing.

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a pleasant job being outdoors. I am so sick of my office job!

[Speaker 1] I played football throughout high school. Being outdoors is second nature to me.

[Speaker 2] Nice! I have always lived in big cities so I love nature but from afar.

[Speaker 1] I do not care for them, I prefer the country and having a nightly beer outside.

[Speaker 2] I can understand that. I enjoy country music though.

[Speaker 1] I like rap. Tupac is my dude.

[Speaker 2] I am more into garth brooks.

[Speaker 1] Never heard of him, is he country?

[Speaker 2] I believe that he is.

I have a truck. I have a job. I do roofing.

I played football in high school.

I do not like cities. I have nightly beer.

I like rap.

I play the guitar.
I have an office job.
I enjoy country music.
I like garth brooks.

[Speaker 1] Do you know how to play any garth brooks songs on your guitar?

[Speaker 2] I do! His songs are so great I had to learn a few. Do you like his work at all? I know you like rap.

[Speaker 1] That is awesome! My parents listen to a lot of country music, so i know some of his songs. But yeah, i love rap. I spend a lot of time rapping and drinking beers with my friends.

[Speaker 2] Whoa, you rap yourself? Is it hard to do? What's your favorite type of beer? Mine is IPA

[Speaker 1] Yeah, i am pretty good with my rhyming skills. I am sure it is hard for most people, but it comes very naturally to me. Honestly, over the years i have realized that light beers are my favorite taste wise. I really stick to bud light. IPA is good though. Do you drink often?

[Speaker 2] I usually just drink socially and with the IPAs they hit hard so I can't drink a lot. If I'm at a party its light beer for me! Do you rap about anything in particular or just what comes up in your head? I'm curious about it and have time to think at the office.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, i think that is why i prefer the light beers. I drink a lot of beers during my rap sessions. IPA really does hit hard. I take things from my personal life, and then add what ever rhymes pop in my head from that. I love it. I bet you have a lot of time in the office. Do you have a guitar in your office, so you can play there as well.

[Speaker 2] I wish I could play at the office. My officemates would not like that but maybe they would?! haha. I do a lot of visualization at the office re: playing the guitar.

[Speaker 1] Yeah i guess that is true. I did not even think of that. That is cool. How long have you been playing for?

[Speaker 2] Since I was about 10. Maybe we can collaborate on a country rap sometime! I'll play guitar with the beats and you can do the lyrics?

[Speaker 1] That is such a long time. That is fantastic! YES!!!!! That would be such a cool new sound. It would probably blow up.

[Speaker 2] I love Old Town Road which is kinda similar , haha. It'

I have a truck. I have a job doing roofing.

I played football in high school.

I do not like cities.

I like rap. I like Garth Brooks songs. I grew up listening to country music. I am a good rapper. I like light beers and drink bud light.  I have nightly beer. I love rapping and rap about my personal life.

I have an office job.

I enjoy country music. I know how to play Garth Brooks songs on my guitar.

I like IPAs.

I am a social drinker.

I have played guitar since I was 10 years old. I want to collaborate in my music.

[Speaker 1] I made some new rhymes for us to work with.

[Speaker 2] Oh cool. We need some new material. I look forward to hearing you spit those bars. I'm really enjoying our collaboration so far.

[Speaker 1] It should be a good time in the studio. I came up with some new melodies.

[Speaker 2] Great! It's gonna be so nice seeing this all come together. I'm definitely taking a cue from some Garth Brooks songs for some of the guitar riffs I'm planning to include. Have you thought more about overall theme and subject matter?

[Speaker 1] I kind of would like to make those albums that tell a story all through the album.

[Speaker 2] Yes! I love those sweeping narratives that weave through the entire project. That way, it can really be about something meaningful -- we can comment about society and man's inhumanity to man and our place in the universe and all. Or at least talk a lot about drinking beer.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a good time. Maybe a country version of a Green Day album or something.

[Speaker 2] Sure, Green Day rocks! I like that suggestion. It's great how we have such similar taste in music. We really complement each other aesthetically, which should make for some nice musical results and some inspiring creative output.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, we'll shoot straight to #1 for sure.

[Speaker 2] Hope so, lol! When do you think we should get together and give a listen to what we're working on individually? I could do a call anytime you like. I'm anxious to move this along!

[Speaker 1] Let's shoot for sometime within a month. I have other projects to finish as well.

[Speaker 2] Okay, that would be good. I don't want either of us to get too busy with other things and let this get away from us. This could be our ticket to the big time.


I was once on the road performing my music.

I just began telecommuting.

I had a tiresome job.

I am an omnivore.

I like the updated computers.
I keep up with current events.
I hope one day I'll be good at stocks.
I'd rather work smarter not harder.

[Speaker 1] Hi, how are you today?

[Speaker 2] I'm fine, thank you. How about yourself?

[Speaker 1] Doing great, just getting ready to cook myself a nice steak dinner

[Speaker 2] Perhaps you could make money cooking if your good at it. I like to make easy money.

[Speaker 1] I used to play concerts, I'm a guitarist, now I work online

[Speaker 2] If I could play the stock market well, I might invest money into your band.

[Speaker 1] I play the markets every now and then, but they're too fickle

[Speaker 2] I love how new technology may help with playing the stock market, as well as working online.

[Speaker 1] Yes, working from home is easy, I don't have to get out of my pjs

[Speaker 2] What I find enjoying is reading the news. Perhaps I could also do it in my pjs.

[Speaker 1] Better than my last job, in a box making factory

[Speaker 2] That does not sound like an easy way to make money. New tech makes home working easier.

[Speaker 1] I do not miss all the cardboard

[Speaker 2] Do you suggest me investing in the box making factory in the stock market?


I like to watch dressage.
I like to flip houses.
I like to drive a lot.
I attempt to maintain a healthy diet.

I can make words rhyme.
I like batman.
I love to ski.
I wish to travel to europe.

[Speaker 1] Good day. How are you?

[Speaker 2] I'm good. Looking online about taking a trip to the uk.

[Speaker 1] Oh really? There are some great places to participate in horseback riding there!

[Speaker 2] I have never gone horseback riding. I love to skate though.

[Speaker 1] Where there are you headed? I've a house with an indoor rink.

[Speaker 2] There is a rink near my house.

[Speaker 1] That is great! Makes it easier to practice. Are you professional?

[Speaker 2] No, I wish! I work for a real estate company. Boring!

[Speaker 1] You are?! I'm looking for an agent!

[Speaker 2] Really? To buy or sell?

[Speaker 1] Sell. Or buy. I have quite a few houses, and some I just never get to.

[Speaker 2] Oh. What do you do for a living?

[Speaker 1] I am an actress. A list

[Speaker 2] Oh, that's very cool.

[Speaker 1] Not to brag or anything. What sorts of homes do you work with most often?

[Speaker 2] Anything, but beach homes are my specialty.


I'm a female.
I hate tomatoes.
I've 2 kids.
I am very short.
I need a wheel chair to get around.

I wonder about what life in space would be like.

I enjoy classical music.

Regular life disappoints me.

I don t get along with my family.

I enjoyed reading as a young girl.

I don't like anything made from a tomato.

I have a son and a daughter.

I wish I were taller.

I have a disability.

I wish I was an astronaut.
I love to listen to beethoven.
I am not a fan of my daily routine.
I'm an outcast.

[Speaker 1] Hello! How are you today?

[Speaker 2] Do you ever get boarded with life?

[Speaker 1] I do because I'm stuck in a wheel chair

[Speaker 2] I bet you get allot of attention because of your disability. I envy that.

[Speaker 1] I do not get a lot of attention though

[Speaker 2] You must stick out in a crowd. No one notices me not even my family.

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry to hear and I really don't get much attention

[Speaker 2] What kind of music do you like? I love the classics like boch and mozart

[Speaker 1] I don't listen to much music

[Speaker 2] You don't listen to music? Are you from outer space?

[Speaker 1] Don't have a lot of time with my 2 kids

[Speaker 2] Ugh, family! I haven't spoken to my family in years.

[Speaker 1] Throw tomatoes at them since they're disgusting

[Speaker 2] Ha! That would make them pay attention to me for sure!

[Speaker 1] And make them covered in red

[Speaker 2] You say such strange things. Youre cool. Are you sure your not an alien?

I use a wheelchair.
I don't listen to music.
I have two kids.

I like classical music.

[Speaker 1] I checked out classical music because you said you liked it. It's pretty good.

[Speaker 2] Yes, it isn't exactly like music music. I feel like it lifts my vibrations. I also heard it is good for memory retention. Especially while studying.

[Speaker 1] I could see that. I felt more relaxed while listening to it. A lot of music is too loud. It stresses me out. Do you have any other musical recommendations?

[Speaker 2] Yes, i definitely understand that. I know this is pretty loud also, but since you have children.. maybe you would enjoy listening to lullabies. You could listen to the melody of songs, but don't need to listen to all the loud words and screams of son lyrics.

[Speaker 1] Yeah that is a good point. I work with kids so on top of my own two kids, its hard to get any quiet time.

[Speaker 2] I bet, that must be really hard to handle. Kids are definitely a lot of work. I don't mean ask anything too personal, but what is it like dealing with children, when you are in a wheelchair?

[Speaker 1] Not much different! It can be difficult some days, but most of the kids are understanding. Plus, if they aren't then it is a great opportunity to teach them about ableism

[Speaker 2] I really like that. Teaching children those kinds of things are very important. I just worry about your energy levels. I think classical music helps everything. I would probably have it on while watching the kids, to hope they would stay calm.

[Speaker 1] I haven't tried playing it at work yet. I think I will tomorrow. I bet you are right! It will be interesting to hear their feedback on classical music. Kids can say the funniest things sometimes!

[Speaker 2] I can imagine how wonderful kids are. They find so much excitement in so many things. Actually teaching them about Classical music at a early age can probably help them a lot in their future studies.

[Speaker 1] I think so! It has definitely helped with my focus. Do you play any instruments?

[Speaker 2] I know how to play piano, and am interested in all instruments. You?

I don't listen to music. I do not like loud noises.

I have 2 children. I work with children. I like children.

I use a wheelchair. I am physically handicapped.

I have a hard time focusing.

I like classical music.

I like things that are good for my spirit. I am focused on doing well in my studies.

I listen to lullabies for the melodies.  I play the piano.

I do not have children. I want children one day.

I care about my friend.

[Speaker 1] I took your advice and gave the lullabies a shot, you were right, they helped as well!

[Speaker 2] Oh, good, I'm glad they were helpful. I find them very beneficial, as you know. It invigorates the spirit and soothes my soul. So the kids are responding to them?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, the kids seem to enjoy them and it does put them to sleep. How is your friend doing?

[Speaker 2] He's doing as well as can be expected. There are so many things he's going through right now and coping is a struggle. It's amazing how the negative events seem to conspire to occur at the same time. But we're working through them.

[Speaker 1] You seem like a very good friend. I wish I had a friend like that.

[Speaker 2] Thank you. It's tough sometimes, especially as we get older, to meet people and make friends. I remember how easy it seemed when we were kids, you know? You walk outside and you meet new kids. Not like that as an adult. Is there anyone in your life you can confide in and turn to?

[Speaker 1] I don't have a lot of friends because I have a hard time focusing on conversations.

[Speaker 2] Really? We seem to communicate very well. I haven't noticed a problem. Is there anyone that you talk to or work with about your issues? It's just a matter of learning to listen and react differently, to really be in the moment instead of elsewhere mentally.

[Speaker 1] It's different in person than it is online. I'm doing a lot of other things as I chat.

[Speaker 2] I see. Well, you can only do what you can do. It's good that you're aware of what your problems are. That's the first step to resolving them. And I'm sure you communicate well with your kids, right?

[Speaker 1] You can never be sure with kids. One minute they're listening to you, the next they're halfway up the tree you told them not to climb.

[Speaker 2] This is true! They are unpredictable and fancy free. Talk about living in the moment -- kids are the definition of that. I envy their childhood. We don't appreciate it while we have it.


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

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

I work part time.
I live with a roommate.

I tried out to be on stage.

I've stage fright.

I was so timid I didn't go.

When I am alone I belt out the most beautiful songs.

The rain forest is interesting to me.

The taste of hops and barley is something I could do without.

My job requires me to be there three days a week.

I have a sleep buddy.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today?

[Speaker 2] I am doing good. I am just getting ready for work.

[Speaker 1] Where do you work? Very cool

[Speaker 2] I work a part time job at a retail store. You?

[Speaker 1] I'm auditioning for a talent show but I'm son nervous

[Speaker 2] You will do just fine. I think my roommate also auditioned for a talent show

[Speaker 1] Do you know how to fix nerves? I am so shy

[Speaker 2] I've no idea I am also very shy

[Speaker 1] Dang it. I love to sing and I'm so good but so shy

[Speaker 2] Well you can pretend not to see the audience maybe that can work

[Speaker 1] I tried to imagine them naked but I forgot my own clothes

[Speaker 2] That's very funny being nervous. It make you forget things

[Speaker 1] Yeah maybe someday I'll get it

[Speaker 2] Hmm if you set your mind to something you will achieve anything you want

I'm auditioning for a talent show.
I am shy.
I love to sing.

I work part time in retail.
I have a roommate.
I am shy.

[Speaker 1] Do you and your roommate get along?

[Speaker 2] We don't see each other that often but when we do, it's all good. I would say we were friends or anything...

[Speaker 1] Sounds like you weren't acquainted before you became roommates.  How did you end up as roommates?

[Speaker 2] He advertised for someone to rent out his spare room and I needed a place. So, what type of singing does your voice suit the most?

[Speaker 1] I sing a variety of styles.  You have to be versatile starting out if you want to get gigs..

[Speaker 2] Ah yes. Do you ever get booked for wedding gigs?

[Speaker 1] That's my bread and butter.  What about you. Do you like working retail, or is that just what you're doing for now, until something better comes along?

[Speaker 2] I hear they pay quite a lot for wedding singers! I find retail quite boring but I'm still at college so I don't really have any skills for a better job at the moment unfortunately...

[Speaker 1] Wedding gigs allow me to eat, but I'm not going to get rich that way.  What year collage are you in?

[Speaker 2] I'm in my second year now, learning programming. I love it.

[Speaker 1] That is pretty cool.  Everything is computerized and all those gizmos need people that can code. Are you majoring in computer science, or just taking some coding courses?

[Speaker 2] I agree. I'm learning about a few different languages, mainly focusing on Python. That seems to be quite popular at the moment. Have you ever been to college?

I'm auditioning for a talent show. I am shy. I am a singer, and sing a variety of styles.

I make enough money to get by singing at weddings, but not enough to get wealthy.

I am shy.

I have a roommate that I get along with, but we are not friends.

I work part time in retail  while attending college, but do not intend to continue post-college.

I am in my second year of college learning programming, and enjoy it. I am learning different programming languages, but mainly focus on Python.

[Speaker 1] You'll never believe how elaborate the wedding I sang at this weekend was - they had an ice skating rink!

[Speaker 2] Oh my! That sounds like alot of fun. I have never heard of a wedding with an ice rink. Did you get time away from work to enjoy the ice skating?

[Speaker 1] No, unfortunately I wasn't able to go for a spin around the rink but I had a lot of fun watching people. I never thought I'd see someone ice skate in a wedding dress! How is school going?

[Speaker 2] It's going pretty well. I have a major exam this weekend, so I am spending a lot of time studying for it in preparation. I can't wait to be finished, so I can get paid for programming. Haha. Did you go to school?

[Speaker 1] I did! I went to Juliard for music and have a degree in music education but I don't want to teach, it seems like everyone hates teachers anymore and I'm not about that. Have you thought about freelancing while you're finishing up school?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I have thought about freelancing, maybe next year or my senior year. I want to get some more study under me before I jump into it. The job market is quite competitive, so I want to be a little more polished. And you went to Juliard? That's very impressive. I have heard a lot of good things about it. Who are some your favorite singers/musicians?

[Speaker 1] I grew up listening to the Beattles and Zeplin but I've been loving this group called Postmodern Jukebox lately. They take current music and cover it in a classic style, it's really cool. Are you still working the retail job?

[Speaker 2] I have actually heard of postmodern jukebox. I've listened to a few of their songs here and there, and they sounded great. I personally enjoy Americana and Alt Rock. And yeah, I just got back from working a shift. It's not the most fun experience and can be draining, but I need it to support myself through college. With that said, it will all be worth it once I finish college and can make good money programming.

[Speaker 1] How many more years before you graduate? And once you're done do you have to do anything to maintain certification?

[Speaker 2] I have two years remaining. And my counselor has my certification process all lined up, so as soon as I finish school, I will be on a fast track to being a certified programmer after college. That's the good thing about school is I already have a network building up for my future vocation, so I won't be starting from scratch.

[Speaker 1] That's awesome. It's so nice that you have a supportive counselor to help you out. Will you be getting your own place once you graduate or are you going to stick with the roommate?

[Speaker 2] Well, I hope to get my own place as soon as I get a good job lined up. My roommate is chill and all, but I prefer my independence. Do you live alone or with someone else?

[Speaker 2] I love reading them. Do you like to read?

[Speaker 1] Yes. The first grown up book series I read was the black stallion.

[Speaker 2] Reading keeps me from thoughts of the suicide pact I have with my husband

[Speaker 2] That's great!  Has your father written anything new recently?

[Speaker 1] No.  He was an author, but has been retired for a couple of years now.

[Speaker 2] I'm glad he is able to enjoy retirement. Are you planning to travel anywhere soon? I still haven't made it to Ireland but it is on the bucket list for sure.

[Speaker 1] No plans right now, but I'd love to go back to Ireland.  I stayed in Dublin last time I was there.  Would love to visit the other side of the island. Maybe around Galway.  Are you Irish?  That's wht I went.  Wanted to see the ancestral home.

[Speaker 2] I'm not Irish I just love the pictures and things I've seen from there it looks absolutely beautiful and I'd love to learn more about the culture.

[Speaker 1] It is beautiful there.  If you get the chance its definitely worth the trip.  How old are your children?

[Speaker 2] Hopeful i may be able to go in the next few years  but we will see. My kids are 6, 4, 2 and the twins would've been 9 next month.

[Speaker 1] I'm very sorry for your loss.

[Speaker 2] Thank you. It has been 5 years now and I am thankful that I got the time with them that I did even though it was just a few days.

[Speaker 1] Yeah it's great to live by the water. Lots of beaches around here too. I can't wait for the weather to change so I can go swimming again.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, i understand. Green things brings me a lot of happiness. The nature and the fresh air are definitely very calming. I need to take hikes every weekend. I work at Mc Donalds and it's a lot of fast paced work, so the nature helps me center myself.

[Speaker 1] Yes I am fluent. I guess when a person loves something it just makes sense to them

[Speaker 2] Yes, you are definitely right! Are you spanish yourself and that is why you are fluent? Or did you learn it through your telemarketing job?

[Speaker 2] Yes I always have my best friends with me just to be safe

[Speaker 1] Good. What else do you enjoy?

[Speaker 2] I love taking taking adventures to places I have never been before

I am Jenny.

I want to have 2 daughters.

I am scared to try mountain climbing. I like going to antique stores.  I like collecting things.

I am Linda. I am a stay at home mom.

I have 2 daughters: aged 10 and 15.

I don't miss working. I go mountain climbing with my best friends.

[Speaker 1] Have you been to any antique stores before?

[Speaker 2] I have not been to an antique store, but I watch Antique Roadshow on PBS. And I have purchased from an estate sale before. I hope I got something good.

[Speaker 1] That's a fun show to watch. I watch it all the time. Do your daughters watch it with you?

[Speaker 2] It really is great, and they do! They enjoy it too. Have you been to any new antique shops lately? Picked up any special items?

[Speaker 1] I haven't been able to go lately. I've been too busy with work. I miss going though. Have you been mountain climbing lately?

[Speaker 2] Yes, we just did Mount Whitney, California. It was absolutely astounding. You can not image the view from the top.

[Speaker 1] That sounds amazing! Did your friends go with you?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I had my friends there too. We all love it. This canyon view of the sunrise is irreplaceable.

[Speaker 1] Sounds beautiful. Are your daughters into mountain climbing as well?

[Speaker 2] Yes, we all do it together, they love to trek with me on the trails.

[Speaker 1] How old were they when they started?

[Speaker 2] My youngest was 8 and my oldest was 13.

I am Jenny.

I want to have 2 daughters.

I am scared to try mountain climbing. I like going to antique stores. I like Antique Roadshow and antiquing.

I have a busy job.

I am Linda. I am a stay at home mom. I don't miss working.

I have 2 daughters: aged 10 and 15.

I go mountain climbing with my best friends. I like going to places I have never been to before.

I have never been to an antique store. I watch Antique Roadshow. I enjoy antiquing.

I climbed Mount Whitney in California. I enjoy mountain climbing with my 2 daughters.

[Speaker 1] Work was so exhausting today. I feel like I never get any time to myself to enjoy my hobbies anymore.

[Speaker 2] I am so sorry that you are feeling that way. Being a stay-at-home mom is not always leisurely, but I do get some time to myself, thanks to my husband, so that I can do things I enjoy. Can you ask for any time off? That may be a good thing to to.

[Speaker 1] Well I do have some vacation time coming to me that I'd like to take in the summer months. I'm so burnt out! I plan to go antique hunting and picking during my vacation.

[Speaker 2] Well, hold on just a little bit longer. It is extremely important to take breaks to avoid burnout. You are better working "less" with better quality than running on fumes. But as least, you can look forward to the summer. What is your most prized antique you currently own?

[Speaker 1] Thanks. I'll try to take it easy to avoid driving myself crazy. Well I just got this great antique wooden table that I put on my front porch. I got it for a great price and love it! Have you gotten any cool antiques lately?

[Speaker 2] I have a collection of old vintage coke bottles that my grandfather handed down to me. They hold more of a nostalgic purpose than anything. He was the one who got me into antiquing. Unfortunately, my parents sold alot of his antiques, so I missed out on having them for myself.

[Speaker 1] Neat! I've seen a lot of old Coke bottles valued quite high on Antique Roadshow. Do you plan to keep them or cash out on them?

[Speaker 2] I plan to keep them. It's the only thing I have from his antique collection. Unlike my parent's philosophy, I believe that some things don't have a price. When I looked at those vintage bottles, I feel a connection to my grandfather, and to sell them would be like selling a piece of my relationship to him. Do you have any items like that that you wouldn't sell no matter what?

[Speaker 1] That's really nice that you have that sentimental value attached to them and you're honoring your grandfather by keeping them. I have a bunch of old rock concert posters that I wouldn't sell for anything. They're up on my wall and I really enjoy looking at them every day.

[Speaker 2] Woah! That sounds really cool. Music antiquities are fun. I have a few old records but that's the extent of my music collection. What are some specific posters you have?

[Speaker 1] I have some cool posters from the Beatles, the Who, the Grateful Dead, Fleetwood Mac, and some other bands. What type of music are you into, Linda?

[Speaker 2] I love all those groups. I prefer classic rock as far as the old stuff. With the new stuff, I prefer alt rock. Alt rock is kind of carrying on the tradition of the classics, while also progressing in some interesting ways.

[Speaker 1] Super cute! I might be going to Portland for work and was thinking a little longer just to sightsee. Where do you suggest I go?

[Speaker 2] That depends on what you want to see. If you like the outdoors I would definitely go to the Columbia River Gorge. There is also a beautiful Japanese Garden, very peaceful and serene.

[Speaker 1] Thanks for the recommendations! How's the weather this time of year?

[Speaker 2] It's cold but when the sun is out it's beautiful. If you dress warmly you will be fine. Of course the weather is so crazy everywhere you never know!

I live in New Mexico.

I have a puppy. My puppy is a yorkie.

My puppy's name is Brownie. My puppy was named by my daughter.

[Speaker 1] I have found a really interesting museum in portland that I'd like to go to

[Speaker 2] That's cool. So you're going to check it out when you travel to Portland on business? What's the museum all about?

[Speaker 2] Did you enjoy it? Would you be interested in going with me? Or, we could go motorcycle riding, but I'm not sure how you feel about that.

[Speaker 1] I don't remember much about it except that our horse kept trying to eat every tree it passed.

[Speaker 2] I've never even heard of German expressionism, do you listen to German music while you are composing? The beer is a pale ale from a local brewer, it should hit the shelves in time for summer.

[Speaker 1] Ah! German expressionism really emphasizes feelings over portraying objective reality (if there is such a thing). So it includes bright colors/simple shapes. It's really fascinating.

[Speaker 2] It'll be a couple years before it's road ready. If I had more time to devote to it I could have it running and show ready this year but work. You should come to the next car show with me and we can see if anyone has any old trucks they're getting rid of that you might like.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like ALOT of fun. I've been wanting to go to some, but I didn't have anyone to go with. But now I do, so I will definitely take you up on the offer.
