I like wide, open spaces.
I only eat locally sourced food.
I am active on my city council.

I've made over 90, 000 on trifecta bets alone this year.

I'ven t been on a date since high school.

I hope one day to own a stable of at least 10 race horses.

I'm trying to open my own teaching program for horse racing.

I am a professional horse racing handicapper.

I own animals that look like llamas.
I like my room.
I consume organic.
I am an elected official.

I like horse racing.

I don't have romantic relationships.

I dream about raising thoroughbreds.

I want to have a business that I started.

I special in handicapped equestrian sports.

[Speaker 1] Hi there! How is it going?

[Speaker 2] I'm ok considering I'm in a dry spell in the dating scene. Since high school

[Speaker 1] Ya. Most people get scared off by my 10 alpacas

[Speaker 2] How funny! I eventually want to have a stable with a minimum of 10 race horses.

[Speaker 1] But can you race on more than one at a time?

[Speaker 2] My resume says professional horse racing handicapper, but I really want to teach it.

[Speaker 1] Do teach people in wheelchairs to race against horses?

[Speaker 2] No, but I can teach you to trifecta bet! I made 90, 000 this year alone!

[Speaker 1] I believe you should leave making money to the mints. Pretty sure that is illegal

[Speaker 2] As they say, you do you boo.

[Speaker 1] I do boo. But only close to halloween

[Speaker 2] Perfecting timing, don't you think?

[Speaker 1] Boo! Got you what time is lunch?

[Speaker 2] It is after 3 here. After I pick up my kid, I'll eat. You?

[Speaker 1] You are going to eat me?

[Speaker 2] I was thinking about chicken salad.

I own 10 alpacas.

I am single.

I hope to own a stable someday with 10 race horses.

I am good at betting on horse races.

I made 90,000 this year.

I have a child.

[Speaker 1] One of my alpacas got loose. It was terrifying.

[Speaker 2] Oh no, were the others going mad as well? Have you managed to track it down?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I have tracked it down but it was a difficult task.

[Speaker 2] That's good to hear - where did it end up?

[Speaker 1] I kept on searching the whole ranch but forgot to check the backward, I would have not found it if it didn't make noise

[Speaker 2] I've always meant to ask you, can you race Alpacas? What do they actually do on a farm?

I own 10 alpacas.
I have a ranch.

I am single.

I am good at betting on horse races.

I made 90,000 this year.

I have a child.

[Speaker 1] I want to invite you and your child for dinner, to see my alpacas.

[Speaker 2] I would love to come! When are you thinking?

[Speaker 1] How does 4 sound? That way we can catch up and the child has some time to play with the alpacas before eating.

[Speaker 2] He would love that. He loves horses like I do, so he'll be very excited. 10 alpacas must a lot of work to take care of.

[Speaker 1] Sometimes it can be, but it adds structure to my days in terms of daily upkeep, and they're not too much trouble while they're out grazing during the day.

[Speaker 2] Do you get any help? I'm interested in all the logistics because of my dream to have races horses, as you know

[Speaker 1] Sometimes, definitely in terms of the veterinary aspects that come with owning a sizable amount of livestock. But the regular stuff is fairly easy, like mucking the stalls, letting them out to graze, stocking up their stalls with food, etc. That kind of thing just looks like a lot more work than it is. Although I imagine I would definitely need daily help if I had, say, 100 alpacas.

[Speaker 2] I see. You must get a fair bit of alpaca wool too from shearing them!

[Speaker 1] Oh definitely. Make a few hundred off of them each time too. Which is just a bonus as having an alpaca ranch is more of a hobby for me. How close do you think you are to having that stable?

[Speaker 2] Oh not at all close. So far I'm betting on them only. After I've had some more success with that, I'm planning on purchasing race horses that I like! Perhaps I'll be the owner of a winning horse one day.

[Speaker 1] That would be very cool! You never know, it's possible that you might breed a Triple Crown winner one day.

[Speaker 2] That's the dream! But for now, I'll be happy seeing my son petting your alpacas!


I work as a bartender.

I used to be in the marines.

When I have nothing else to do, I read books.

I m a vegetarian.

The future scares me.
My mom stays at home.
My adopted dad works at hp.
I have six siblings.
I was adopted when I was a baby.

I serve at a bar on the weekends.

I'm a veteran.

I enjoy going through novels in my spare time.

I don't eat meat.

I am set in my ways.

My mother has no job.

My foster deals in laptops.

I have 6 brothers and sisters.

I was taken in by my parents when I was very small.

[Speaker 1] What kind of activities do you enjoy?

[Speaker 2] I play with my brothers and sisters in the forest a lot. We don't have much.

[Speaker 1] Lately business has been slow in my job bartending. Its made things tight.

[Speaker 2] I know what that's like. Wish I had been adopted by rich people.

[Speaker 1] I miss being in the marines.

[Speaker 2] I might join, what is it like? I don't want a desk job like my dad.

[Speaker 1] It was a lot of work. Now when I am bored I like to read books.

[Speaker 2] Read any steven king? My mom does not work and reads a lot too.

[Speaker 1] I love stephen king. What kind of food do you like?

[Speaker 2] Not too picky on food, hp doesn't pay my dad enough for fancy gourmet.

[Speaker 1] I stopped eating meat. Its been an adjustment.

[Speaker 2] We don't always get meat either. Too expensive for six kids. Pasta is cheap.

[Speaker 1] Six kids wow! A vegetarian lifestyle certainly is less expensive.

[Speaker 2] We grow our own so it is even cheaper. I don't know what the future brings.

[Speaker 1] Nor do I. Hopefully the bartending will pick up again soon.

[Speaker 2] Does the future scare you?

I am a bartender.
I used to work in the marines.
I like to read.
I am a vegetarian.

I have a brother and sister. I have 5 siblings.

I am a vegetarian.

I grow vegatables.

[Speaker 1] What vegetables do you grow?

[Speaker 2] I grow mostly mushrooms, and some potatoes and carrots.

[Speaker 1] Those are great vegetables. You grow any fruits ?

[Speaker 2] There is a large raspberry patch in the back of my field! but other than that I don't grow any fruits myself. How about you?

[Speaker 1] I grow everything that I can. Lately, I have been growing a lot of corn and pumpkins. Although i like the pumpkins for pumpkin pie. Do your siblings help with the gardening ?

[Speaker 2] I love anything pumpkin flavored! My brother helps a bit and my sister helps with storing the vegetables.

[Speaker 1] Glad to have someone else who loves pumpkin flavor as much as I do ! And that is awesome that they are also involved with growing their own food. They are never too young to learn. In case of a natural disaster it will com in handy. Don't you think?

[Speaker 2] Yes, if a natural disaster came I might have to make vodka out of my potatoes! Know any good drinks I could mix?

[Speaker 1] Haha yes, you have the right Idea. Unfortunately I do not drink. However that is a trick I learned while in the marines.

[Speaker 2] A bartender that doesn't drink! You have great discipline! I guess I will just mix it with some of my carrot juice.

[Speaker 1] Haha I am a very rare one. I choose to not drink due to issues in the past but mixing drinks is my passion. I also like the party scene. So how long have you been a vegetarian ?

[Speaker 2] I love the party scene as well. I have been a vegetarian for about 2 years. My girl friend made me try it and surprisingly I have stuck with it!

I am a bartender. Mixing drinks is my passion. I like the party scene. I do not drink. I was in the marines.

I love the party scene. I have been a vegetarian for about 2 years. I am a vegetarian. I have a girlfriend.

[Speaker 1] I've just learnt a new cocktail recipe, have you ever tried an English Garden?

[Speaker 2] No, I haven't tried an English Garden, but I love to drink. How do you make an English Garden? Have you served it to any customers yet as a bartender?

[Speaker 1] It's pretty tricky to find the ingredients sometimes. You need gin, cucumber, but also elderflower. It kind of tastes like lychee. I haven't served it to anyone yet, but we might make it a special to see what people think. What are some of your favorite tastes in a drink?

[Speaker 2] I'd like to try that sometimes, as gin and lychee are both flavors I enjoy. I'm pretty basic when it comes to cocktails. I really like vodka with cranberry juice, or sometimes straight up, adding raspberries that I've grown. I really like pumpkin ales when they are in season, too.

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah, many people really like the pumpkin ales when they are available. Do you ever use use some of the things from you garden to make drinks? Or mostly just to cook with?

[Speaker 2] I only use the raspberries to add to my vodka drinks. I love cooking with the mushrooms, potatoes, and carrots I grow. I love to make beef stew using all of those ingredients. How is your vegetable growing coming along?

[Speaker 1] I am just getting ready to sew the first batch of corn since we have passed frost for the season. I am going to try Nirvana corn. Have you ever heard of it before?

[Speaker 2] Are you expecting a big yield of corn this season? No, I haven't heard of Nirvana.com. What's it all about?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure why it's named that, but it's a mix of yellow and white corn. It's supposed to be really sweet. It will be the first time I've tried growing it. I am planning to plant double the corn this year so I hope to get a big crop and freeze some. Do you ever freeze some of your harvest? Or just can?

[Speaker 2] That sounds delicious. Whatever we can't eat or sell, I put into cans with my sister. Maybe you could send me some of that Nirvana corn when it's done? I'd be happy to send you some of my crops in return.

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah! That would be great! Do you have a good amount of raspberries? I have made freezer jam with raspberries before and it is so yummy and easy to make.

[Speaker 2] I should have a sizable raspberry crop closer to the summer. I'd be happy to send you a couple of bushels. I might be doing some blueberries, too, if you're interested.

[Speaker 1] Is there anything that I can do to help you?

[Speaker 2] You can just pray for me or direct police to Wisconsin 89740.

[Speaker 1] Okay, I will do both of those things. Just hang in there. How is your arm doing?

[Speaker 2] I am managing it, just hope that someone could show up before anything more terrible happen.

[Speaker 1] That's good news. How did you break it in the first place? I'm starting to get the hang of working online and learning all the ins and outs of it. Thanks for asking.

[Speaker 2] I slipped on some ice late in the winter and fell on it :( I'

[Speaker 1] I'm cringing just thinking about it! You're young and resilient, though, so you should make a speedy recovery. Hopefully you'll heal so you can enjoy the spring.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it was a pretty quick recovery that even surprised me. I started working online too since my arm's kept me at my Uncle's house! It's fun isn't it? No commute or all that!

[Speaker 1] I do love that I don't have a commute. What a nightmare those morning traffic jams can be! Plus, I get to listen to music all day when working from home. What kind of work are you doing online?

[Speaker 2] My friend got me a transcription job, I think it's a lot of fun! It pays my bills until I can start working for my Aunt at her businesss, she owns a bakery. Gonna learn now to make cinnamon rolls :)

[Speaker 1] Hey, whatever pays the bills, right? I know you're turning 18 soon. Are you going to go to college?

[Speaker 2] I love garden gnomes.  You'll have to send me a picture.  ...do you sell them?

[Speaker 1] No I don't sell them, usually give them away to people who like them. I get enough pleasure just making them. I can make you one! What are your favorite colours?

[Speaker 2] ohh. that would be great!  I like them with bright colored clothing.  Yellows, oranges, and reds.

[Speaker 1] Oh those colours are great! I will make you a very cheery gnome, with fashion sense of course. Hey, I just joined a dance class you may like. It's very casual. You should come with me next time I go.

[Speaker 2] When is it?  lol.  I could use a good workout.  I've been spending all my time sewing.  ...what color blouse would you like.  I'll make you one.

[Speaker 1] There are two classes next week. Wednesday and Thursday at 6:00 pm. Let me know which one works for you. Oh a blouse :) I would love a light pink one. I so wish I could sew like you, but I am grateful at least one of us can sew.

[Speaker 2] Thursday works best for me.  I have exactly the perfect shade of pink cloth.  You'll love it.  I'll bring the blouse with me on Thursday.

[Speaker 1] Oh I am so excited. You may have to wait a little longer for your gnome, the process usually takes me a week or two. How about I buy the coffee and donuts before dance class? :) Thursday is perfect.

[Speaker 2] Coffee and donuts sound great!  We'll need the extra calories for dancing.

[Speaker 1] Haha that's what I keep telling myself, but I love those new Oreo donuts I get at the bakery down the street from me. They are soooooo good. Hope you like Oreo!

I like Oreo everything.

[Speaker 1] I am looking forward to having coffee and Oreo donuts with you next week.  And then we can dance those calories away.

[Speaker 2] Me too!  I'm really looking forward to trying those new Oreo donuts!  I wonder if they come in different flavors like the cookies do.

[Speaker 1] Oh that would be wonderful if they did! I may have to call and ask. I know they have candy donuts like Snickers and Reese's. I hope we can still move after eating them!

[Speaker 2] Hahaha!  I know that's right!  Maybe we should try some slow, easy dance steps first just to work off the heaviness and then get in to a more energetic workout. What do you think?

[Speaker 1] That sounds good! The classes definitely warm you up before getting anything to vigorous! It's more of a fun way to workout to popular music! Kind of like the video game Just Dance but with real people lol

[Speaker 2] True.  Hey, on a different note, have you made any new gnomes lately?

[Speaker 1] I actually just started planning yours but I haven't completed any new ones! Did you have any ideas or cool designs I can make when Im done with yours?

[Speaker 2] Let me think.  I'm totally into summer decor right now so how about something along those lines?  Maybe a beach one or a nautical one?

[Speaker 1] That's a really good idea! I think some of my family members would really love a beach themed garden gnome.  How is the sewing coming along?

[Speaker 2] Oh it's good!  I'm making a new beach cover up for myself now.  I wanted something pretty but long enough to cover.  I can make you one next if you want!

[Speaker 1] Wow you're too kind! I'll have to make your gnome extra special then! Can you make any type of clothing?

[Speaker 1] Hi there. I am nurse kelly. What are you doing?

[Speaker 2] Hey nurse kelly struggling with gas, so bloated

[Speaker 1] I have just the thing. Take a hot bath and drink some milk.

[Speaker 2] Okay pudding makes me really gassy, thanks!

[Speaker 1] My four sisters used to make me eat pudding. I hated it.

[Speaker 2] Really I love it, but can't eat it. I can't have any diary

[Speaker 1] Here in grand rapids, michigan we love our dairy. No honey though, no way.

[Speaker 2] I love honey, you and I like different stiff

[Speaker 1] Bees could kill me, I stay away from all of it. Do you work?

[Speaker 2] Really are you allergic?

[Speaker 1] Very much so. My four older sisters are too. Are you?

[Speaker 2] No not at all I love bees, what music you like

[Speaker 1] I like psychedelic rock music. What about you?

[Speaker 2] Cool more like pop, I love some ke ha

[Speaker 1] That is cool too. Some of the kids at my hospital like her too.

[Speaker 2] Yeah she's a good artist

My name is Kelly. I am a nurse at a hospital.

I have four older sisters. I hated eating pudding.

I am in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

I am allergic to bees.

I like psychedelic rock music.

Pudding makes me gassy. I love pudding. I can't eat dairy.

I love honey, bees.

I like pop music.

[Speaker 1] I became a nurse after an allergic reaction to a bee sting.

[Speaker 2] What was I the reaction you had?

[Speaker 1] My throat felt like it was closing. It was hard to breathe. I had to go to the hospital. The bee stung my hand but I ended up with a really swollen hand and respiratory issues. I was terrified but the nurse knew just what to do. I knew then I wanted to be a nurse. I was 7 years old when that happened.

[Speaker 2] I have a friend who is allergic to bees and she has the same symptoms. Once we were at the beach and a bee stung her arm and it swelled up like a balloon I had to rush her to the hospital. I'm allergic to tomatoes, watermelon, and cherries.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow! What happens if you eat those thing? How did you find out you were allergic?

[Speaker 2] My throat starts itching and then it gets harder to swallow, my throat starts to swell and close up. I found out when I was younger we used to have a cherry tree and one day I was picking some cherries and eating them and all of a sudden I couldn't swallow, then I broke out in a rash. My mom took me to the doctor where they did several test and determined I was allergic to more than just cherries. Are you allergic to anything else?

[Speaker 1] Oh man! You had a very similar experience. As a kit when your throat swells and you can't breathe, it is the scariest thing I can imagine. As far as I know, bee stings are my only allergy. Have you heard any good music lately?

[Speaker 2] I saw Taylor Swift in concert last weekend. It was a blast. What was the last concert you saw?

[Speaker 1] That sounds amazing! I saw Elton John in concert last year. I was mad when we went because I spent about  $500 on 3 tickets, but once I saw the show I stopped complaining. It was worth every penny.

[Speaker 2] Elton John would be epic. Taylor Swift is no comparison to him. Did you get a lot of snow in Michigan last week?

[Speaker 1] We did! We got about two feet of snow last week. I love it. My nieces and nephews live nearby and they walked over and built a snowman in the yard. I stayed indoors. It was a pain to drive in to get to work, but it's gorgeous.  How's the weather been for you?

[Speaker 2] We got quite a bit too but the snow is not the bad part it's the cold temperatures. My little sister has been running around here singing "Do you wanna build a snowman?" I'm definitely ready for winter to be over, spring is my favorite season. What season is your favorite?

I have four older sisters. I have nieces and nephews. I hated eating pudding.

I am in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

I am allergic to bees.

I like pop music. I saw Taylor Swift in concert.

I have a little sister.

[Speaker 1] Have you heard the new Taylor Swift album? It is so good.

[Speaker 2] I love the new Taylor Swift album. I love how different and evolved her music has become over the years.

[Speaker 1] Ya, she has really progressed as an artist. How was her concert? Was it awesome?

[Speaker 2] Oh my goodness, it was so awesome. She is absolutely amazing in person. I thought her music was good, but in person she is out of this world. Her voice is amazing in person.

[Speaker 1] I would love to go to one of her concerts. I'll have to check out her touring schedule. Are you listening to any other good pop artists?

[Speaker 2] Oh I would definitely recommend it - I'd go again if you want to go together! Right now, I'm really into Ariana Grande. Have you listened to her music?

[Speaker 1] I have, she is really good too. I am really getting into TwentyOne Pilots as well. Have you listened to them?

[Speaker 2] I've heard of them, but haven't listened to them a whole lot. Do you recommend a certain album I should listen to?

[Speaker 1] Blurryface is good, but I really like Trench. I went to two of their concerts.

[Speaker 2] How were they in concert?

[Speaker 1] They were really good. They have a lot of energy and it feeds into the crowd. It seems like their fans are pretty rabid.. ha!

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a ton of fun. I've never been to a concert like that but it's definitely something I'd be willing and hopeful to try!

I have an iq of 250.

[Speaker 1] It happens. I started running to cope. I was the best in my state

[Speaker 2] That is good want to run sometime with me

[Speaker 1] Sure, but I'm a bit out of shape. I eat ice cream every day now

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a fun hobby

[Speaker 1] I takes me where it does. What do you do?

[Speaker 2] I'd like to have money to travel but I am poor

My dad used to take me fishing.

I started running to cope with my father's death. I am the best runner in my state.

I am out of shape. I eat ice cream every day.

My parents died in a plane crash.

I do not have money to travel. I want to travel.

[Speaker 1] Are you finished building your house of matches?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I finished it a while back. It was a nice way to pass the time, but I think I prefer watching others do it instead.

[Speaker 1] That's understandable. I found an old match stick airplane while cleaning out dad's things the other day.

[Speaker 2] Oh,  your dad must have been quite good at crafting things out of matches. I haven't checked my attic in a while, I am not sure what I will fine if I do.

[Speaker 1] He kept a ton of old things up there. We plan on donating a lot of it to goodwill. If you'd like to come over, you're welcome to go through it. We could have a yard sale and I'll split the money with you.

[Speaker 2] That sounds good. I think the money would be good thing to have, if I do end up traveling this year. What about you, do you have any plans this year that you need money for?

[Speaker 1] Not really. I suppose it wouldn't hurt to do a bit of travelling as well to help get my mind off things. Maybe we could arrange a trip together.

[Speaker 2] That's a great idea. Do you have any place that you want to go? I always wanted to travel to Spain, or even Portugal.

[Speaker 1] I hadn't really given it much thought. I have always wanted to visit Europe. I have some friends that live in England. What attracts you to Spain?

[Speaker 2] The culture mostly, I always wanted to try authentic and traditional food in Spain, as well as see the historic sights in the country.

[Speaker 1] I see. The history of Europe is what attracts me as well. I suppose since my HS spanish has mostly been forgotten I hadn't given much thought to Spain. Are you fluent in spanish?

[Speaker 2] Not really, I also only learned Spanish in school. I think its good enough to have some basic conversations with. but I don't think I am at the same level as a native spanish speaker. Still, it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

My dad used to take me fishing.

I want to visit Europe.  I have friends in England. European history attracts me.

My parents died in a plane crash.

I do not have money to travel. I want to travel to Spain and Portugal. I want to go to Spain for the culture including the food and historic sights.

I do not find building a house of matches fun.

I am not fluent in Spanish, but I do know some basics.

[Speaker 1] I decided to book a trip to Europe and will stay with my friends.

[Speaker 2] That's exciting! What are you most excited about for your trip?

[Speaker 1] Oh, I'm so excited to go to Spain! I know you mentioned you'd love to travel to Spain so I booked it since we were talking about it!

[Speaker 2] I'm sure you'll have a great time. I'm so jealous! What cities are you planning to visit?

[Speaker 1] Most likely Madrid, Barcelona, and we may take a train to Portugal! I'll have to learn some Spanish. I know you know some of it, would you be willing to help me?

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a dream! I have a book with Spanish for travelers, I'm happy to lend it to you. The food is going to be amazing! You'll have to try it all

[Speaker 1] Oh yes please, that would be great if I could borrow it. I'm most excited for the food and the European history that's all over. It's really exciting to me. I really want to try some authentic Spanish food.

[Speaker 2] Yum! I love paella and tapas. The architecture in Barcelona is stunning. I'm sure you'll love it. Are you planning to do any running during your trip?

[Speaker 1] That's what I'm ecstatic for! Probably no running for me. Is that what Spain is known for?

[Speaker 2] It's not, but I thought you might be running a race while you're there since you're such a huge runner.

[Speaker 1] I love running - but I'm not a runner on vacation! Vacation is for RELAXATION!

[Speaker 2] I like expensive restaurants one of the perks of graduating from ivy league

[Speaker 1] I'm picky about proper technique when it comes to food

[Speaker 2] What do you think about taxing rich people more? That's horrible!

[Speaker 1] I don't know. I've an accountant to deal with my taxes

[Speaker 2] I cannot believe we always have to make it easier for those poor people!

[Speaker 1] She sure does, she has a lot of organizations she belongs to and volunteer work as well. Hopefully that'll help her out to a good extent.

[Speaker 2] Definitely. Does she do any sports? A lot of the schools like to see well-rounded students, as in not just academics.

[Speaker 1] She played softball all through high school, so maybe that will give  her some credits as well.

[Speaker 2] Mostly just smaller pets right now.  Most exotic one I've worked on was a ferret.  I should be doing farm animals next semester.  I'd like to do some zoo animals as well.

[Speaker 1] I have a friend who's a vet and she got to work with bald eagles when she was in school. I was so jealous! I hope you get to have lots of good experiences too.

[Speaker 2] Wow!  That would be cool.  Bald Eagles are so beautiful.  Have you heard any new country songs lately?  I'm looking for some new music.

[Speaker 1] She's not new but lately I've started listening to Margo Price a lot. Have you heard her stuff?

[Speaker 2] No I haven't.  I'll have to check her out.  I've been on an oldies kick.  Hank Williams Conway Twitty.  lol.  I know its weird, but I still like the old stuf.

[Speaker 1] You can't beat the classics sometimes. I still listen to Merle Haggard on the regular. No shame in knowing what you like.

[Speaker 2] That's how I feel.  The old stuff reminds me of being home on a Saturday cleaning house with my mum.  She'd crank up the music while we cleaned.

[Speaker 1] It's nice to have those strong memories. I bet she cherishes that time with you too. My parents weren't too keen on music but you know the smell of lasagna always takes me right back.

[Speaker 2] It's funny what will trigger your memories.  I've been looking for a new book.  Any recomendations?

[Speaker 1] Dolly Parton is amazing. She's so generous, smart, and talented! Which song of hers is your favorite?

[Speaker 2] I love Jolene! I always felt so connected to the song even though I never experienced anything like that lol Do you have a favorite?

[Speaker 1] WOW I was just going to say Jolene as well. It was playing in my head as I was wondering which song you were going to pick.

[Speaker 2] Great minds think alike! I also love I Will Always Love You even though Whitney Houston also hit that song out of the park! What other types of music do you like?

[Speaker 1] I also like funk and motown. It really gets me in a good, upbeat mood. How about you?

[Speaker 2] Funny that you say Motown because I was just dancing to Jackson 5 while taking a break from studying!

[Speaker 1] Ah yes. So great. I also love The Temptations. So much talent! Haha we can go on and on

[Speaker 2] We really could! There have been so many great musical eras and acts! I wish I could go back in time and go to all of the amazing concerts. Do you get to go to any concerts?

[Speaker 1] I'm more of an introvert, so I haven't ventured out to go to live concerts. I have watched a few concert reruns on TV though. My favorites are Michael Jackson's concerts. He is a mesmerizing dancer.

[Speaker 2] Can I skydive and land on your farm?

[Speaker 1] As long as you do not land on my eighteen wheeler! I need it

[Speaker 2] No worries. Can I bring my twin brother? He lives with me.

[Speaker 1] Only if you two like rap. I love it, tho I have a bushy beard!

[Speaker 2] Maybe this weekend since I'm not volunteering at the animal shelter.

[Speaker 2] Its been about 4 months now, I still plan on doing it for the time being, I feel I am really helping out the shelter and all the animals that it takes care of.

[Speaker 1] It seems like a great thing to do. I know many of those organizations are understaffed and need all the help they can get. Do you expect to keep volunteering in the future?

[Speaker 2] I think so, I think it is great to volunteer every once in a while to help others in need. I think I should always have time to volunteer, so I don't think I would stop any time soon.

[Speaker 1] How many hours per week do you volunteer?

[Speaker 2] I try to do at least 3 hours, but on average its more like 6 hours. I have a flexible schedule, so its not much of an issue to find the time to volunteer.

[Speaker 1] It's great that you have a schedule that accommodates it. Do you have time to play shows in your band with work and volunteering?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I have plenty of time to practice with my band and to perform. They're usually understanding of my volunteer work, and they tell me ahead when the band has to perform for a venue.

[Speaker 1] I miss playing music. It was so fun playing shows and traveling. Getting too old for all of that now, thought!

[Speaker 2] That must have been great, to travel and to play music back then. Do you still keep in touch with the other members of your band?

[Speaker 1] I do. We do try to play a show once a year just for old time's sake. It's nice to catch up.

[Speaker 2] That sounds awesome, I hope I get to stay in touch with my band in the near future. Its nice that you even play a show once a year with them, what kind of instrument do you play?

[Speaker 1] I spoke to my old bass player this week, we will try and play a show in September.

[Speaker 2] Awesome! Are you excited or nervous? I know it's not always easy to get the band chemistry going after it's been awhile.

[Speaker 1] no i am  not  nervous  .

[Speaker 1] But  i  think  this  genre is  awesome

[Speaker 2] Ok. How's the farm work going these days? What vegetables are you growing?

[Speaker 2] Only when I volunteer at the humane society. A topiary of a dog would be great there

[Speaker 1] Www. That it would. Dogs are the best.

[Speaker 2] They sure are! If I ever skydive I will love to take my dog with me

[Speaker 1] The military kps skydive with their handlers, they're so cute with their goggles.

[Speaker 2] Oh... My sister is gay not openly closet because of her career as an author.

[Speaker 1] Its sad when we have to hide ourselves. I am a welder because it was manly.

[Speaker 2] Yeah she hates it, the family vacations every winter in florida but she never comes.

[Speaker 1] Would your parents be angry with her?

[Speaker 2] She feels like they are angry but I think they would appease gradually.

[Speaker 1] I feel like I would be disowned, by my dad at the least.

[Speaker 2] Really? Do you do anything to assist you with coming out?

[Speaker 1] I've tried bringing it up before, but something always gets in the way.

[Speaker 1] During our last conversation you reminded me of how long it has been since I have gone to karaoke. What is your favorite karaoke song?

[Speaker 2] I love singing Joan Jett's song "I Love Rock and Roll". What is one of your favorites to sing?

[Speaker 1] Oh that's a good one. I always like to sing "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey, but I'm not very good at it. I still think it's a lot of fun though.

[Speaker 2] That's the fun part of Karaoke, Just letting go and having fun. You should come with us next time, I think that would be so fun. What do you think?

[Speaker 1] That would be amazing! Thank you! Where do you all usually go to sing karaoke? The last time I did it, went to Southlands. It's a bar downtown that is located next to Pizza Hut.

[Speaker 2] I have been there before. We try to go to different venues. We love the variety! ..... So,,, Pizza and then singing this next Thursday, Should we do it?

[Speaker 1] Definitely. I have to work at the shipyard until 6, but I should be able to meet you at Southlands at 7:30. Does that sound ok?

[Speaker 2] Yes, that sounds great! What kind of work keeps you busy at the shipyard?

[Speaker 1] I love my job.  We are building a submarine for the navy. I had an office job for about 4 months and that was 4 months too long. I love working with my hands and building things. There's no place I'd rather be.

[Speaker 2] I was watching a channel on YouTube recently that was showing how they make submarines,,, I was in awe! I had no idea that it was so involved. I guess I never thought about it before. When my family vacations in Florida, they have submarine that I have been on at a museum..It was way cool!

[Speaker 1] Yes, it was more complicated than I imagined too, but I enjoy my work. It's kind of an art form. My mom always has me welding things for her. I fixed her fence last week. I also welded her a small metal door stop just because she wanted it. She seems to like it.

[Speaker 2] Welding is far more practical than my standard way of securing things, duck tape and super glue are my go to's. LOL. Do you ever sell your welding creations?

My parents do not know I am gay.

I am a welder.

I sing karaoke. I sing Journey's song.

[Speaker 1] Sang any karaoke recently?  I haven't.  And do you need any welding doing?

[Speaker 2] Oh definitely, just this past Thursday we belted out "Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman" at the local bar. Can't say I need any welding done at the moment, but you'll be who I go to when I do.

[Speaker 1] I am agree with you  about  this  matter.

[Speaker 2] I am glad that it is agreeable. What's it like working at a shipyard?

[Speaker 1] it  is  a big industry  that  is  why  .

[Speaker 2] Forgive me if this is rude, but I'm just curious - was it difficult getting hired to work at a shipyard, or did they view your level of English as a non-factor?

[Speaker 1] no  it  is  okay.

[Speaker 2] Okay then. What prompted you to leave the office for a job near the sea?

[Speaker 1] i ma supervisor  here so all kind  of  task i have  to  do.

[Speaker 2] Amazing. Sounds like a lot of fun. I wish I had a job that cool. Do you ever do any fishing by the shipyard after you're done work?

[Speaker 1] Great! I'm having a relaxing day while my dad is at work

[Speaker 2] Cool. I'm watching some old movies today.

[Speaker 1] I am listening to some country music while working on puzzles

[Speaker 2] Awesome. You like country music huh?

[Speaker 1] I do! Sam hunts new song is currently my jam

[Speaker 2] I play country music for my yoga class.

[Speaker 1] I enjoy yoga! I'm not the best, but attempt it

[Speaker 2] Do you have any other hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I'm a fiction writer. Not a published one, but hopefully one day!

[Speaker 2] Awesome. I love fiction. That is great.

I live with my dad.

I like country music, puzzles, Sam Hunts new song, yoga.

I am a fiction writer.

I like old movies.

I am a yoga instructor. I like country music.

I love fiction books.

[Speaker 1] Have you watched any good old movies lately?

[Speaker 2] I watch 'Gone With The Wind' the other day. It's about the twentieth time I've watched it but everytime I see something I missed before.

[Speaker 1] What did you see this time that was different?

[Speaker 2] I noticed that the people that played the slaves were fantastic in their roles. Especially those who had minor parts.

[Speaker 1] Yes, it is a fantastic movie. Have you seen Casablanca recently?

[Speaker 2] Not for years. I never really got into that movie in spite of all the fame it has gotten. To me the best scene was when Bogart had to get into the water and came out with leeches. Made me shiver.

[Speaker 1] I think that scene was actually in "African Queen", another great movie.

[Speaker 2] You're right! Casablanca was the one with "Play it again Sam" well as you get old you forget things I guess.

[Speaker 1] I know, we have so much to remember. Have you seen  ""Treasure of the Sierra Madre", another Bogart classic?

[Speaker 2] That was a great movie! I haven't seen it for years. Didn't Bogart play a bad guy in it?

[Speaker 1] Yes, pretty much. He did have some redeeming qualities.

[Speaker 2] That's what I remember. In the end he was the anti-hero.

I live with my dad.

I am a fiction writer.

I know a lot about old movies.

I love fiction books.

I like old movies. I've watched Casalanca but not for years. I sometimes confuse different movies.

[Speaker 1] I might have thought of another old movie to talk about.

[Speaker 2] What old movie do you want to talk about?

[Speaker 1] Do you like musicals?  Easter Parade is a classic!  There's singing, dancing and a budding romance.

[Speaker 2] I absolutely LOVE musicals. I've honestly never heard of Easter Parade, I'll have to check it out. When did it come out? I'm surprised I've never heard of it.

[Speaker 1] That one came out sometime in the 1940's.  It has Judy Garland (incredible voice) and Fred Astaire.  It's wonderful!  I could watch him dance all day!

[Speaker 2] Isn't Judy Garland the one in Wizard of Oz? I absolutely love her in that movie. I'll have to check it out. I love the singing and dancing - especially in old movies.

[Speaker 1] She did star in the Wizard of Oz.  If you like Judy then you should also check out Meet Me in St. Louis.  Another great musical and appealing cinematography.  I guess I should have asked if you prefer black and white movies or those in color?

[Speaker 2] I believe I prefer more movies in color, but I'm open to watching the ones in black and white. I love that the Wizard of Oz started off in black and white and then turned to color once she went to Oz. I think it was absolutely genius how they did that back in the day.

[Speaker 1] I absolutely agree!  I remember the first time I watched it I wanted to turn it off because it was in black and white.  My parents insisted that I sit and watch and I'm glad that i did.  I think my favorite part is when the house lands on the witch.  How about you?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, I love that part as well! But I really think I like the munchkins and the part where they actually meet the wizard. I remember as a kid I loved that part especially seeing the castle at the end of the yellow brick road surrounded by flowers.

[Speaker 1] That was good.  The munchkins always remind me of the oompa-lommpa's in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory.  It's a little tripper than The Wizard of Oz but it's one you might like.  Have you seen it?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes!  That's such a good comparison. They do look very similar to the oompa-loompas. I love Willy Wonka - especially the old one.

[Speaker 1] I am currently living in chicago, so yes, I do now

[Speaker 2] I like game of thrones so badly!

[Speaker 1] I mostly watch the news and scandal

[Speaker 2] Hehe ohhh..... Fun! Did you have any crazy experience as a kid???

[Speaker 1] Yes, one time I almost died trying to swim with an alligator

[Speaker 2] I saw the easter bunny hiding behind my closet when I was a kid.....

[Speaker 1] Did you ever try to see who the easter bunny was?

[Speaker 2] Wow, I'm in australia.. Full of crocodiles

[Speaker 1] Do you enjoy a lot of crocodiles, do you have one as a pet?

[Speaker 2] No... I was terrified to look.. What is your name?

I'm from Australia.

I was terrified to look at crocodiles.

I like dogs.

[Speaker 1] What is you favorite flower?

[Speaker 2] I love roses! I have a whole garden at home. Would you like one?

[Speaker 1] Oh wow! That is nice of you to offer. I would love one, do they ship well? Do you have a variety of colors?

[Speaker 2] Yes, they ship very fast! I have red, white, and yellow roses.

[Speaker 1] Red roses are my favorite color of roses. Do they grow year round in Alabama or only part of the year? Here in Chicago it gets to cold for much to grow in the winter months.

[Speaker 2] I can grow them most of the year. It's usually too cold from December to February, but I built a greenhouse so that I could grow them year round! I'll send you some of my red roses when I get the chance.

[Speaker 1] That's was a good idea to build a greenhouse so you can grow them year round. Thank you! I can't wait to get them. Do you grow so many just because you enjoy it or do you make arrangements with them and sell them?

[Speaker 2] I ship out all across the country! I send them to Chicago and New York all the time since it's too cold for you guys to grow them up there.

[Speaker 1] That is really cool! I'm sure people up here really appreciate getting them especially in the middle of the cold, dark winters. Is that your main job? Or do you just do it for fun?

[Speaker 2] It's just a side gig. My full time job is working at the zoo. I love the kangaroos, but the crocodiles are just terrifying.

[Speaker 1] What a fun job! Kangaroos are pretty cool and I'm sure you like them even more since your from Australia. What scares you about the crocodiles so much? Can you ask not to work with them?

[Speaker 2] I almost got my arm bitten off by one once! It was a close call just like with you as a kid almost getting killed by an alligator. Luckily, my job lets me choose which exhibit I work in.

I lived in Oklahoma. I live in Chicago now.

I like the News and Scandal.

I'm Jessica. I love reptiles.

Red roses are my favorite.

I'm from Australia. I live in Alabama and like flowers. I don't like the song Sweet Hoe Alabama.

I was terrified to look at crocodiles. I like dogs.

I love roses and have a garden full of roses at home. I have red, white, and yellow roses. I built a  greenhouse to grow roses  year round.

I ship out roses all across the country including Chicago. It's my side hustle job. I'm working at the zoo full time. I love kangaroos but am terrified by crocodiles. I've almost got my arm bitten by crocodiles. My  job has let me switched an exhibit I work in.

[Speaker 1] Did the incident make you feel terrified by crocodiles? I wonder if you like the exhibit you currently work in better.

[Speaker 2] I am enjoying the new exhibit I am working in.

[Speaker 1] What exhibit are you working  at now?

[Speaker 2] I am finally able to work with the elephants.  They are such gentle giants.  I am so glad to be away from those crocodiles.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like so much fun! I've always wanted to pet an elephant. Do you have any pets at home?

[Speaker 2] I have two basset hounds.  They are so playful and fun to watch.  I also raise backyard chickens.

[Speaker 1] They must keep you busy! I've always wanted to raise chickens but I can't now that I live in Chicago. Are they a lot of work?

[Speaker 2] They really aren't a lot of work.  I was so surprised when I first started raising them to find out how smart they are.  I also have one that likes to sit in my lap.

[Speaker 1] That would be so fun! Do they give you eggs every morning too?

[Speaker 2] I have 8 hens and 2 roosters so I get around 5 to 8 eggs per day.

[Speaker 1] I'm so jealous. Fresh eggs are the best. It reminds me of growing up in Oklahoma and getting farm fresh eggs at the market.

[Speaker 1] I'd love it, except I cannot drive my van in much snow.

[Speaker 2] I prefer the beach. Sun and surf is for me.

[Speaker 1] Nice. I enjoy it too but not that much.

[Speaker 2] Its not for everyone, especially when you see all of the hurricane footage.

[Speaker 1] Absolutely I only need a lil rainfall to drift off to sleep

[Speaker 2] I love listening to the sound of the waves

[Speaker 1] Yes its very peaceful and soothing

[Speaker 2] It truly is. Do you like to surf?

[Speaker 2] What state do you live in, if I may ask?

[Speaker 1] I live in Florida, so the beaches here are rad. Can't wait to go back this weekend with my brother.

[Speaker 2] I wish I live in Florida so that I can surf move.

[Speaker 1] You should come vist! You could sleep on my couch and we could go surfing all day. I might even bring you to the restaurant I love near the beach afterwards.

[Speaker 2] Thanks for the offer. That will wonderful. I am already having gooosebump thinking about it.

[Speaker 1] I just sunbathed on the beach for 3 hours, such a good way to destress after waitressing

[Speaker 2] I'm so jealous! That must have been fun. Did you try any surfing?

[Speaker 1] Not yet, but I'd love to try. Do you want to take lessons with me?

[Speaker 2] That might be a good way to improve, since I'd love to stop embarrassing myself whenever there's a big wave!

[Speaker 1] We can take lessons together next time you come visit! There is a place on the beach not far from my apartment. There's also a great pizza place nearby

[Speaker 2] I could really go for a pizza right now! Especially something beachy and tropical. I'd be willing to go for the controversial ham and pineapple combo, even!

[Speaker 1] Hahaha. That sounds great. I could go for a pina colada after a long day of work and sun

[Speaker 2] Sign me up for a mudslide. My boss is driving me crazy lately, I might start looking for a new job.

[Speaker 1] Ugh. A bad boss is the worst! Do you want to keep waitressing or would you look for something different?

[Speaker 2] I would rather do some sort of receptionsit work. The tips are nice, but I'm ready for something that will keep me off my feet and have me home for dinner!

[Speaker 1] Standing all day is brutal! I also hate coming home smelling like french fries.

[Speaker 2] It is nice to be able to take home food to avoid cooking, but I could also make so much more and not have to miss every weekend event if I had a solid 9-5, you know?
