[Speaker 1] Pleasantries!! Bernard here. How are you?

[Speaker 2] Okay. How come you were not at bowling tonight?

[Speaker 1] I was playing my guitar at the club.

[Speaker 2] So how did that go? I had to watch the kids right after bowling.

[Speaker 1] It was great. How did the kids behave.

[Speaker 2] Pretty good. They like being with their dad. The wife went shopping.

[Speaker 1] No wife or kids in this house. Just me.

[Speaker 2] Peaceful! I work all day long with sick kids, so two at home is not bad.

[Speaker 1] Where do you work? I work in the lab. Scientist.

[Speaker 2] I work at the clinic for children.

[Speaker 1] That is honorable. I cook on my off time. 5 cuisines.

[Speaker 2] Well next time try to schedule your guitar playing on a different night than bowling.

[Speaker 1] Will do. Great talking tonight.

[Speaker 2] Bring some of that great food to bowling next week, okay?

[Speaker 1] I definitely will. Bring enough for the whole team!!

[Speaker 2] Great! I'm on call tomorrow, need to sleep when I can, night

I play guitar at a club.
I am single.
I am a scientist in a lab.
I cook.

I have two kids and a wife.
I work at a children's clinic.
I like to bowl.

[Speaker 1] Is hospital busy these days? Did you get called in on any of your on-call shifts this week?

[Speaker 2] Yes, it's been really busy to be honest and a bit of struggle to have some balance between work and personal life. Don't think my wife and kids are too pleased that I've been spending so much time at work. How's work going for you, everything ok in the Lab?

[Speaker 1] I definitely understand the struggle of work and personal life balance. I haven't been too busy so I've been able to spend more time at home cooking. What kind of food do you like?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it's difficult! That's really good - do you see cooking as your hobby? I love Mediterranean cuisine, what about you? What kind of food do you cook?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I consider it a hobby. I'm not really familiar with Mediterranean cuisine but my favorite food to cook is Mexican. Do you prefer to dine out or cook at home?

[Speaker 2] Mexican cuisine is great also. I love the experience of dining out but I prefer home cooked food if that makes sense. When is your next gig? I was thinking maybe we could meet up for a few drinks and a bit of bowling before heading to your gig.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great! I don't have anything booked right now but will let you know.

[Speaker 2] Sure, no problem! How's the dating scene treating you anyway? Surely playing in a club attracts a lot of girls.

[Speaker 1] The dating scene is rough. The type of girl I'm looking for doesn't really hang out at clubs. How did you meet your wife?

[Speaker 2] And what kind of girl is that? It's actually met my wife on a dating app called Bumble - after a few days of talking to each other, we went on a date and the rest is history!

[Speaker 1] Other than occasionally playing at clubs, I'm mainly a homebody so I prefer a girl that doesn't want to go out all the time. It seems like a lot of people meet online these days. Did you meet a lot of girls online before you met your wife?

[Speaker 2] That's fair enough, but it's all about balance and as long it's done moderately then shouldn't be an issue. Not really no, I came out of a bad relationship and my buddies told me about it so I thought I'd give it a go and got lucky! Perhaps you give it ago, worst case scenario you might get lucky like Pharrell Williams if you know what I mean ha.

I play guitar at a club.

I am single. I can't find a girl. I want a girl that doesn't want to go out all the time. I am a homebody.

I am a scientist in a lab.

I cook. I haven't been busy. I have spent time cooking. My favorite food to make is Mexican.

I have two kids and a wife. I met my wife on the dating app Bumble.

I work at a children's clinic. I have been really busy. My wife and kids aren't happy with my busy work.

I like to bowl.

I like Mediterranean food. I like Mexican food too. I like home cooked meals instead of eating out.

[Speaker 1] I downloaded Bumble and I've been matching with some girls.

[Speaker 2] Hey, that's great I hope you find a homebody who loves Mexican food. Bumble worked for me.

[Speaker 1] Fingers crossed, do you have any tips for my messages with woman?

[Speaker 2] Look out for scammers. Women who live far away and want to date you are usually going to ask for money and never come see you. If they ask for money block them.

[Speaker 1] I will, is that Catfishing?

[Speaker 2] I don't know what its called but don't fall for it. Look in your local area if you live in a big city say 25 or 50 miles, but if you are more secluded try up to 200 miles. I had to drive three hours to date my wife but it was worth it in the end.

[Speaker 1] I will thanks for the tip. Are you still as busy at work?

[Speaker 2] Always but I knew that going in. What about you? How often do you play at a club and do they pay you?

[Speaker 1] I play most weekends and every Thursday. They pay me a cut of the takings so my pay varies.

[Speaker 2] Cool most girls are impressed with musicians that should be a plus on your Bumble profile. I've enjoyed your company but I promised the wife and kids I would take them bowling so I have to go.

[Speaker 1] Bowling sounds fun. I hope you get a strike

[Speaker 2] Thanks, I hope I get many talk to you later.

[Speaker 2] Nice! Yes. Going to sell my prius and maybe purchase a bike.

[Speaker 1] Definitely an upgrade! I love to let my longer beard blow in the breeze!

[Speaker 2] Nice! I try to stay out the sun I have too many face freckles.

[Speaker 1] You will be a night rider then?

[Speaker 2] Yes, would love to be that. So you have any pets?

I like riding my bike.

I am male doctor with beard.

I like romance novels.

I need to sell my car. I drive a prius. I have freckles all over my face.

[Speaker 1] It is really nice to go riding as the sun is setting.  My dog and I took an awesome trail today.

[Speaker 2] How long did you go walking on the trail?

[Speaker 1] I love dogs, what is your dogs name?

[Speaker 2] I do not have a dog, but if I did, I am partial to the name Boots. What is your dog's name?

[Speaker 1] Buddy, Boots is a nice name. We usually walk for an hour on the trail each day.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like some good exercise. I am usually so tired after I am done with work that I don't get the exercise I probably should get.

[Speaker 1] Do you have any pets? What kind of work do you do?

I like riding my bike.

I am male doctor with beard.

I love  dogs. I own a small dog. My dog's name is Buddy and takes him for a walk for an hour a day.

[Speaker 1] Buddy and I took to running today instead of biking.

[Speaker 2] It's so cool that you have the time to take care of a dog, I wish I had a dog. Is he nice, or does he ever bite people? I used to be scared of dogs when I was little because I was bit by one!

[Speaker 1] Buddy is the sweetest dog you would ever meet. He loves to play and is just always happy. I love him very much.

[Speaker 2] That's amazing, do you mind if I join you both for a walk sometime? I need to exercise more. I can even bring a frisbee and we can play at the park by your house! Or does Buddy prefer playing with other toys?

[Speaker 1] That would be great! You are always welcome to join us. The more the merrier. He definitely loves to chase down frisbees.

[Speaker 2] Perfect! I used to play ultimate frisbee a lot back in my college days. Has work been keeping you busy lately? I'm still considering getting my own pooch, but I'm scared they'll be too lonely while I'm gone at work all the time, and doggy daycare is way too expensive for my budget.

[Speaker 1] Work has been fine. Though if I ever have a stressful day I always have Buddy there with me to help me destress. I think that it would be great to get a dog. If you scared about that then maybe the best thing is getting two.

[Speaker 2] What kind of dog is Buddy? I'm thinking of getting a smaller dog that won't tear up the seats of my car before I sell it. I want to get a big truck once I sell it so I can take the dog up to the mountains to hike and swim. If I get two dogs, even better! They can keep each other company while I'm gone.

[Speaker 1] I have a pomeranian. They are small and not very high maintenance, which is nice. Doing those of activities would be great for you and your dog!

[Speaker 2] Oh I love Pomeranians! They're one of my favorite types of dogs. I'm thinking of looking at these Australian Sheppard puppies tomorrow, do you want to come with me? I could use the company! You can help me choose which one you think likes me the most haha.

[Speaker 1] Sure! I do not mind helping at all and I am sure it would a lot of fun.

[Speaker 2] I think I want a girl pop, I want to name her Ruby. Do you like that name? I'm also thinking of Sasha, but maybe they're too human of names! How did you decide on the name Buddy?

[Speaker 1] Have you ever tried octopus?

[Speaker 2] I don't believe so.  I've eaten squid before, but I don't think I've ever had octopus.  Is that one of your specialties?

[Speaker 1] No way! how was the taste? I always wanted to try squid but I always chicken out. I do love raw fish, specially in sushi, do you like sushi? yes, Octopus is one of my specialties, but even I as a chef have my limitations, that being with squid, lol

[Speaker 2] I think I've only had squid as calamari.  It's deep-fried so that's mostly what you taste.  You can dip it in delicious sauces, too.  Try calamari--it's a very safe way to try squid.

[Speaker 1] calamari is really tricky to make. I will have to give it a try, definitely. what is your favorite type of seafood? I like just about everything with the exception of flounder.

[Speaker 2] I really like crab and lobster.  Lobster is largely an excuse to ingest a lot of butter, but it's still great.

[Speaker 1] you are speaking my language! I am obsessed with crabs, lobsters are so delicious, have you ever had lobster, Main style, in a butter toast with butter salted sauce? your life will be forever changed!

[Speaker 2] Yes, it's all wonderful.  And lobster rolls are delicious, too.  I really love lobster macaroni and cheese as well.

[Speaker 1] lobster rolls? what is that? I dont think I have ever heard of Lobster rolls. yes lobster macaroni and cheese is a staple. I am trying to stick to seafood and stop eating so much red meat, how did you do it?

[Speaker 2] Lobster rolls are just some lobster salad, which is lobster and mayo typically, in a buttered roll or bun.  Really simple and good.  You know, I struggled to stop eating red meat at first because I used to love burgers, but the thought of how a lot of meat is raised made it easier.

[Speaker 1] gotcha! never heard of it, I will see if I can find a restaurant near me that makes it or maybe I can create it in my kitchen. sounds delicious! Burger is basically my middle name, BACON CHEESE burger that is. I know its something I have been thinking of as of lately. living in the south all we do is eat red meat

[Speaker 2] Vermont is beautiful especially in the fall. No I never went to college. Worked after high school and then got married and had children. Sometimes I wish I had gone to college. When will you graduate?

[Speaker 1] I only have about a year and a half left. I am not sure if I will stick around here after I graduate or move to a larger city. Do you like the area where you live?

[Speaker 2] We live in a rural area. My husband commutes to the city for work, but can do a lot of his work from home. I grew up in NYC so this rural living is quite different. I am thinking about moving some place not so rural. There is so much more available when you live near to a big city. A year and a half will go by quickly for you.

[Speaker 1] NYC sounds fun. I've always lived in suburban or rural areas, so I would be interested in the city life for a little bit. Was there anything you didn't like about living in the Big Apple?

[Speaker 2] Too many people for me. I was just tired of there always being people around, no matter the time of the day or what I was doing. Now I sometimes miss that. I think someplace in the middle like a suburban area would be better. Ha

[Speaker 1] I can understand how that would get old after awhile. I like being around people, but I'd also like the option to be by myself if I wanted. What make you move from the city to a more rural area?

[Speaker 2] I always liked camping and hiking so I thought living in the country would be a nice change. I guess it was for a while but now I feel like I am missing a lot of things. Have you ever lived in a city? Have you ever traveled to any big cities?

[Speaker 2] Yes it was a mystery novel, its called walking shadows.

[Speaker 1] That sounds interesting, I recently read a book about a daughter that was holding her mother captive in the upstairs of the house. It was so crazy. But then you learn why the daughter was doing that to the mom, and then you learn why the mom did what she did to the daughter... it was an intense book

[Speaker 2] Wow, that seems like a mystery novel. Did you get to know why she did so?

[Speaker 1] I like to sit by my lake and make scarfs

[Speaker 2] Cool! I like water to. Snorkeling is my favorite.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun! Yes it makes me happy and puts a smile on my face

[Speaker 2] What else do you like to do?

My name is Megan.

I love music, mainly r b.

My favorite thing to eat is pizza, extra cheesy.

My name is Kourtney.

I like mangos for breakfast.

[Speaker 1] Hey Kourtney, I listened to some gary numan the other day and I enjoyed it. Do you have any songs to recommend me?

[Speaker 2] Hey Megan, I am so happy to discover another potential Numan fan. Personally, I love the songs Cars and Intruders.  What songs were you able to listen to the other day?

[Speaker 1] I actually listened to Cars, I was getting total 80's nostalgia vibes.  Maybe we can get some pizzas with extra cheese and you can play your favorite Gary Numan songs, and I'll play you some R&B?

[Speaker 2] Maybe we can work something out in the near future! What type of R & B do you enjoy listening to?

[Speaker 1] I like 90's R&B, since it reminds me of high school. My favorite artists are TLC and Lauryn Hill.

[Speaker 2] I have also loved chasing waterfalls, both figuratively and literally. Do you jam to R & B while sitting by the lake? Are there many lakes where you live?

[Speaker 1] That's my favorite song! I don't have a waterfall near my house, so yes the lake has to do.  Just one big one at the edge of the property.  It's usually very peaceful this time of year.  Maybe next time you're over, we could snorkle in it. The water is pretty calm.

[Speaker 2] Oh,it must be nice to live so close to an accessible lake! I adore being near water, especially when there are great snorkeling sites to scope out! Are the scarfs you make by the lake for personal use or do you sell them externally?

[Speaker 1] It's mostly for friends and family. I mostly make them to relax and destress. I feel like if I made them to sell, it would turn into a job, and then I would stop enjoying it as much.

[Speaker 2] Ah, that makes a lot of sense. Have you ever made a scarf with a mango design? Asking for a friend...

[Speaker 1] Hmmm, no I haven't made one with that on it before, but I guess I need to expand my scarf horizons. On an unrelated note, your birthday is coming up pretty soon, isn't it?

[Speaker 2] Indeed it is.  I am in need of more warm clothing that incorporates mango and snorkeling design elements if anyone is wondering what to get me.  Maybe we can go out for some pizza for my birthday?

My name is Megan.

I like to explore and do crafts. I like to sit by my lake and make scarfs. I make scarfs to relax and destress.

I love music, mainly r b. I've listen to the song Cars. The 80's are nostalgic to me. I like 90's R&B. My favourite artists are TLC and Lauryn Hill.

I went to high school.

My name is Kourtney.

I listen to gary numan to be ironic. I love music. I'm a Gary Numan fan. I love the songs Cars and Intruders.

I like mangos for breakfast.

I like water. My favorite is Snorkeling. I like waterfalls.

I need more warm clothing. It's my birthday soon.

[Speaker 1] I just gave the Intruders song a listen, nice pick!

[Speaker 2] Thanks, what are some good 80's songs to listen to?

[Speaker 1] I like all the 80's songs.  Too hard for me to pick the best.  I think I'm going to order pizza for dinner.  Do you ever order out?

[Speaker 2] I do sometimes, what are your favorite kinds of pizza?

[Speaker 1] I like the veggie pizza and I always get extra cheese.  Have you ever been to Niagra Falls?  I went there 2 years ago.

[Speaker 2] I like waterfalls but I've never been to Niagara Falls, was it fun?

[Speaker 1] Yes I loved it!  We took a boat ride called Mystic something and it was so much fun.  We even took a bus tour so we wouldn't miss anything.  You should go, with your love of waterfalls, you'd really like it.

[Speaker 2] I bet I would love it sounds like a lot of fun, do you live close to Niagara Falls?

[Speaker 1] No, I live on the west coast.  But, I have family that lives in New York, so we went there when we visited them.  I really like traveling.  Have you traveled much?

[Speaker 2] No I don't get to travel much, my last vacation was a couple years ago. Do you get to travel a lot?

[Speaker 1] I try to go someplace every 2 months.  Last month I went to St. Louis.  But it was rainy and cold.  I did get to see the river and visit a casino when I was there.

[Speaker 2] That's unfortunate, have you been to any warm places recently?

[Speaker 2] That's really exciting! What dogs have you seen?

[Speaker 1] I was looking at a poodle, do you have a dog?

[Speaker 2] I don't, my cat I worry wouldn't like it. I do want one some day though. I like all animals mostly.

[Speaker 1] Oh ok. That's a good point. I think I'm going to adopt the poodle I saw online! Did you get your cat from the shelter?

[Speaker 2] We did, she was a bit shy at first, but warmed up great. I think shelter animals are a great thing. You can tell how much better their lives are.

[Speaker 1] Do you have to pay when you adopt from an animal shelter?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it was pretty minor though. The biggest cost was getting the supplies and taking her to the vet the first time.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's good. How old are the animals usually when they come from the shelter?

[Speaker 2] It really depends I guess. Courtney my cat was about 2. Have you done anything fun recently ?

[Speaker 1] Cool, ok. My boyfriend has been taking me to dance lessons, what about you?

[Speaker 1] I'll send you it. Is Courtney ok around dogs?

[Speaker 2] She keeps to herself for the most part, but she does well around dogs.

[Speaker 1] How old is she, I meant to ask?

[Speaker 2] She is five years old. She is a stray that I found by my home and decided to adopted.

[Speaker 1] Did you get her spayed can I ask? I was wondering if I should with my poodle.

[Speaker 2] Yes, you should spay and neuter your pets. It is very important.

[Speaker 2] I love baseball! Didn't you say you'd never played before?

[Speaker 1] Speaking about it with you sparked more interest therefore I got the game.  How often do you feel like trying something new just curious?  I am often feeling that way.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I like switching it up from time to time, I'm into reading fiction books at the moment. What have you been up to recently?

[Speaker 1] Indoors a lot for me.  What book or books are you reading now?

[Speaker 2] I'm currently reading a romance novel, I love it, it's a bit of an escape from reality. You really should try and get into reading since you're inside all the time?

[Speaker 1] You know something...although I do not take an interest in reading I do enjoy learning, and an escape from reality has been known to work for some.  I wouldn't know where to start with picking up a book.  Any good recommendations?

[Speaker 2] Jane Eyre would be a good one to start with. Maybe I could let you borrow it?

[Speaker 1] Would you do that for me?  That is so very nice of you, and it would make it much easier to get started.  Would you like a raw honest opinion of what I think of the book after I'm done or do I candy coat my opinion for you?

[Speaker 2] That would be fine! And well, I would like to hear your honest opinion since you're new to reading. Let me know when I can come over and give it to you?

[Speaker 1] I am certain that I would enjoy it either way, as I truly appreciate you getting the book to me.  I'm at the same place.  Do you still have the address?

[Speaker 2] Yeah I have the address still. Would you like me to let myself in since you're stuck in bed?

I don't live near the ocean.

I like to read romance novels to escape from reality.

I am organized.

[Speaker 1] Did you happen to watch any baseball last night?  Unfortunately, I fell asleep early.

[Speaker 2] Sorry, no crazy as it sounds I think watching baseball is boring, I'd rather play it. Sorry to hear about your medical condition. Have you tried a virtual reality headset yet?

[Speaker 1] I wish I was able to play! It would probably be a lot better than being stuck in bed all the time. I've been playing a VR game called Tetris Effect on the PlayStation VR.

[Speaker 2] I was more thinking the non gaming type of virtual reality it is like a helmet. My friend tried one and said it was amazing it is like you are somewhere else, you can pick the forest, the ocean the city, etc. and probably many more places.

[Speaker 1] Oh, no, but I think it would be similar equipment to what I have. I'll have to look and see if there is an option to visit the ocean. Do you live near an ocean?

[Speaker 2] No but I grew up near the Pacific Ocean and lived in Florida near the Atlantic Ocean for a year.

[Speaker 1] Oh, wow. I've never been to Florida. I'd like to go one day, if my medical condition clears up. What city would you recommend visiting?

[Speaker 2] First which ocean do you live by? If it is the Pacific don't see the Atlantic it ruined the Pacific ocean for me forever. I am only familiar with Jacksonville which is at the top left corner undrer

[Speaker 1] I do live by the Pacific. What about the Atlantic ruined it for you?

[Speaker 2] The sand was white, the water crystal clear little to no muddy stir up. When I next visited the Pacific ocean I noticed how dirty the sand and water were and how much it stunk.

[Speaker 1] Ahh, yeah. That has to do with a process known as upwelling. There aren't any reefs in the Pacific to help break up the force of upwellings, which brings a lot of murky water to shore. What is your favorite thing to do when you visit the beach?

[Speaker 2] I just enjoy walking barefoot in the sand and letting the waves wash over my legs. Oh gosh look at the time. Sorry, but I have to get ready for baseball practice. I will talk to you again soon.

[Speaker 1] I would say something close to your natural hair color unless you would like to try something cool like blue

[Speaker 2] Yeah I want to dye my hair something cool like blue! You've recently dyed your hair too right? What colors again?

[Speaker 1] I dyed them both blue and orange I think it came out nicely

[Speaker 2] Cool, blue and orange is pretty neat. I hope that once I retire to keep trying new hobbies - I've been wanting to try skateboarding! You think you could teach me?

I am an older person. I don't skateboard.

[Speaker 1] I heard back from one of the places where I put in an application.

[Speaker 2] Oh, that is fantastic! What happened?

[Speaker 2] I often travel with my son and grandchildren, although that's more challenging now as they are getting older. I hope you get to travel again so. Where would you like to go first, if money were no object?

[Speaker 1] I would love to go to Iceland. It's only a 5-6 hour flight from the US East Coast, so it's a trip I can easily do on a long weekend. I want to try glacier hiking and ice climbing.

[Speaker 1] Which building are you painting on? I will stop by to watch it when I get into the town. I love flowers.

[Speaker 2] The left side of the bank! It is just a few blocks down from trader joe's actually! what is your favorite type of flower

[Speaker 1] I like all sorts of flowers, but peony is my favorite. They are so gorgeous in blooming. It must be hard to paint on the building. How many hours do you work each day?

[Speaker 2] It is hard-- it is hard to cover up all the cracks that are in the side of the building! I work about 8 hours a day-- it can get tiring in the heat, especially in the summer! At least the work in winter is slower, must be careful that the paint doesn't freeze

[Speaker 1] People really need to appreciate art and artists more! What do you do for workout?

[Speaker 2] I agree :) I usually do cardio and then a bit of weight lifting. How about you?

[Speaker 1] I like to hike. I enjoy the fresh air in the woods in the mountain or around a lake. Do you like to join our hiking team?

[Speaker 2] I think I would! How often do you guys go hiking?

I like trader joes. My favorite chips are hot sour cream and spicy sweet.

[Speaker 1] Yea it definitely was a long drive. Do you like hiking?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I do. I live quiet rurally so there are lots of nice places near me.

[Speaker 1] Do you still do cardio and weightlifting workouts?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I do it's a great combination.

[Speaker 1] Yea, I also like to enjoy outdoors. I feel like a fresh vibe to it. Do you usually work outdoors?

[Speaker 2] Ha ha!! Well it helps when you enjoy football.

[Speaker 1] I am way too busy for that. 15 credit semester for fall and I am like ahahah

[Speaker 2] True, I am either reading a horror fiction book or watching football. Ll

[Speaker 1] Lol that is awesome though, so you are a book worm a sports guy huh?

I live in Georgia.

I like horror fiction.

[Speaker 1] Good news, I finished my math homework!

[Speaker 2] Great! Good to hear it. I hope my students finished the science assignments I gave them. You never can tell!

[Speaker 1] Lol why is that. Do most of your students not finish their homework? Maybe science isn't popular among the kids.

[Speaker 2] It depends -- they're usually pretty good. But there's always one or two kids who didn't manage to get it done and they've got sob stories to explain why. "Our basement flooded and I had to help my dad." "My dog ran away." And so on. But it comes with the territory -- I still love my job.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure they are still good kids at heart, probably just unmotivated or have trouble at home. It's not easy being a kid. I did not do well in grade school either like some of those kids so I understand. But you seem like a great teacher and they're lucky to have you. How long have you been teaching science?

[Speaker 2] Ever since I moved to Georgia. So about seven years now, I imagine.

[Speaker 1] Oh, where did you used to live? Is it Wisconsin since you're a Packers fan?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, you guessed it. Fon du Lac. Nice city, but I don't miss it all too much. Go Packers, lol!

[Speaker 1] Woo, go me haha. How are the Packers doing? My Texas Longhorns did not do so well, but I am still a fan for life!

[Speaker 2] Not too bad. They're 13 and 3 right now, so I can't really complain. Are there a lot of Longhorn fans at your college?

[Speaker 1] Yep, I would say 9 out of 10 people are fans. Even my 1 year old niece is a fan! Who is your favorite football player?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, that would have to be Aaron Rodgers. Hands down, without question.

I am a college student. I did bad in grade school.

[Speaker 1] I saw the Longhorns were changing their uniforms!

[Speaker 2] Really? What are they going to look like? Are you excited?

[Speaker 1] It is going orange to stick with the school colors, it looks really nice. Seeing new uni's is always exciting.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. Are you going to buy a new jersey to wear to games you watch?

[Speaker 1] As of now I am happy to wear their original jersey that I have.

[Speaker 2] That's probably a good idea. The official ones can get really expensive. How are your classes going?

[Speaker 1] I am doing much better now. I am very focused on improving myself and my school work. It is very important that I succeed.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. What class is your favorite right now?

[Speaker 1] Currently it is music theory. I have a great professor and the class is very interesting. Definitely I am having the most fun in it.

[Speaker 2] Do you play any instruments? I would like to learn to play an instrument.

[Speaker 1] Not at the moment currently. I do not have time to be able to learn or play anything. Maybe I'll learn to play the piano one day.

[Speaker 2] Nah. I just hung out. Remodeled a home. You?

[Speaker 1] Very cool. I got out to the lake a lot. One of my favorite things to do.

[Speaker 2] Do you fish? Always very relaxing.

[Speaker 1] Of course. I tend to fish and knit at the same time. Surprisingly compatible activities.

[Speaker 2] Wow you must be a very talented multitasker.

I don't have a corvette.  I don't walk a lot.

I work a lot.

[Speaker 1] Did you come across any good music?

[Speaker 2] yeah lately I have listen to some cool japanese rock groups I have enjoyed on spotify

[Speaker 1] Are these Japanese rock groups famous?

[Speaker 2] I would say they are popular with younger people

[Speaker 1] Do you know their names?  I want to google them and probably listen to their music.

[Speaker 2] sure the one I enjoy the most is a group call survive said the prophet

[Speaker 1] I will research who they are when we finish chatting.  I am curious.  I myself like country music.

[Speaker 2] cool what country music artist do you like

[Speaker 1] I like Keith Urban. He is from Australia.  When I heard his song for the first time, I thought he was from the US,

[Speaker 2] that is nice I think I heard of him

[Speaker 1] Does Survive Said the Prophet have any good music videos?

[Speaker 2] I don't watch very many videos. I just like to listen to it loud through my headphones.  I am starting to get into fishing, what is your favorite kind of fish to go after?

[Speaker 1] I love to fish for carp they are great to have a fight with when bringing them in but as long as I'm fishing I'm not worried what I'm catching.

[Speaker 2] I agree, I live close to the ocean and it is fun to surf fish because there are so many different fish. You never know what it will be.

[Speaker 1] Yeah there are so many different kinds of fish out there to catch. I like to listen to my country music while I fish gets me in the mood.

[Speaker 2] That is funny! Maybe I should try a little Welcome to the Jungle next time and see if I get pumped up to fish. I have never really listened to country music. Who else do you like besides Keith Urban?

[Speaker 1] Yeah that might just get you pumped up. I like Tim McGraw as well among others but he is one of my favourites.

[Speaker 2] I will have to check out some of his songs.  I have heard a few Toby Keith songs. They seem to be pretty rowdy and fun.

[Speaker 1] Yeah they are, there are a lot of good songs out there some that are not always in the mainstream.

[Speaker 2] So you knit and fish and listen to country music at the same time. That is cool. Have you made any ugly christmas sweaters? LOL

[Speaker 1] Yeah lol. I like to try my hand at lots of things it keeps me busy.


I love to sleep in.
I work in a lab.
I ve been a vegan since I was 5.
I believe in love at first sight.

My name is john and I live in dallas, tx.

We also have three dogs and two cats.

My wife and I have 2 children.

Our kids are 14 and 12 years old.

I work as a physical therapist, and my wife is a school nurse.

I've a son and daughter.

We have one preteen and one teenage child.

Me and the lady help people.

[Speaker 1] Hi there, how are you?

[Speaker 2] Not so bad, how about you?

[Speaker 1] A bit tired. Just got home from working at the lab

[Speaker 2] What kind of lab do you work at?

[Speaker 1] One that studies health and diet. Its particularly interesting to me since I'm a vegan

[Speaker 2] Cool, sounds like you have the right job. I'm a physical therapist and love it

[Speaker 1] Yep, ever since I chose to be vegan at 5 I knew I would love it

[Speaker 2] I have two kids, the 14 year old is thinking about becoming vegan

[Speaker 1] Tell her it is so worth it.

[Speaker 2] Do you have any kids?

[Speaker 1] No but I believe in love at first glance, so I am hopeful it will happen

[Speaker 2] Have any pets, cats or dogs?

[Speaker 1] No, I've thought about it, but I want to enjoy sleeping in on days off

[Speaker 2] Lol, that makes sense. I've five all together, quite the handful!

I have no kids, no pets.

I work as a physical therapist.

I have 2 kids, one of which is thinking about becoming vegan.

I have 5 pets.

[Speaker 1] I just found a new vegan place, you and your kids should try it out!

[Speaker 2] Oh really? That sounds interesting. What's it called?

[Speaker 1] It's called "Yo-Meat-Is-Nasty" LOL! They buy locally and everything they buy is organic. It's great! I've been recommending it to all my friend at the health lab too haha.

[Speaker 2] Oh, God! I'm sure my daughter would like it, since she's interested in going vegan. But my son has gone in the exact opposite direction and now refuses to eat anything that can be considered vegan. It makes meals very complicated. I'll have to try going there with just my daughter some time. What dishes do you recommend there?

[Speaker 1] The "Deluxe Garden" is my favourite! (It even has eggplant which I usually hate) but it tastes sooooo good! And awe haha, kids these days either love it or hate it! I've been thinking of adopting since I can't have any of my own... or pets too haha. I'm so lonely these days

[Speaker 2] Oh that's a shame. Maybe you could try going out with some friends from the lab. They must have similar tastes.

[Speaker 1] Haha I don't think my lab friends could cure my baby-fever tehehe. Anyways I was wondering if I could book an appointment with you? My back has been hurting so much lately. Doctor told me it's because I became vegan at 5 hahahaha

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, sure. But the doctor really said it's because of your diet? That makes me worry for my daughter.

[Speaker 1] Ohhh I think he was just kidding lol. But I am in super need for physical therapy, working overtime at the lab lately has been a complete buzzkill for my body.

[Speaker 2] That's a relief. Yeah, working long hours can really bring you down after a while. It'd be nice to see you. Maybe we could try that vegan place together afterward.

I work at a lab that studies health and diet.  I became a vegan at age 5. My favorite entree is the Deluxe Garden.

I have no kids, no pets. I want to adopt. I am lonely.

I like Yo Meat Is Nasty.

I have baby fever. My back hurts. I need physical therapy. I work overtime at the lab.

I work as a physical therapist.

I have a daughter and a son., one of which is thinking about becoming vegan.

I have 5 pets.

[Speaker 1] I got into contact with an adoption agency to get some information!

[Speaker 2] That is good. If you are serious about adoption, you need to get information first. Do you like to adopt a baby or a toddler, or even a teenager?

[Speaker 1] I'd like a baby or a toddler.  I'm not sure if I'm mature enough for a teenager. LOL. Want some kids I can grow up with.

[Speaker 2] I agree that it is easier to grow up with the kid. A grown kid may have a strong mind of their own and hard to adjust. Do you like to adopt in the country or international?

[Speaker 1] Which of your kids is thinking about going vegan?

[Speaker 2] My daughter. She thinks she should eat more healthy. Do you have any suggestions for her?

[Speaker 1] My favorite is deluxe garden.  I'll pull together some recipies and send them over.

[Speaker 2] Thank you! She would love it. How do you get protein on a vegan diet?

[Speaker 1] Beans are a good sour of protein. There are hundeds of different types of beans.  With vegan it's all about getting recipes with the right mix of nutrition.

[Speaker 2] That is wonderful. My daughter has always loved beans and peas. Do you usually use dried beans or fresh ones?

[Speaker 1] It depends on the season.  Fresh is always best, but dried is almost as good. And dried beans keep forever.  Has she tried any vegan recipes yet?

[Speaker 2] Yes, she has tried some. How is your back?

[Speaker 1] Oh! That sounds so interesting and thrilling!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, its def not boring. Any plans for the weekend?

[Speaker 1] I am going to see the red hot chili peppers in concert! They're my fav!

[Speaker 2] Oh nice! I saw them once. I am going hunting with my brother.

[Speaker 1] I am going to see the red hot chili peppers in concert! They are my fav!

[Speaker 2] I am eating lunch right now. I hate when I tell them no broccoli.

[Speaker 1] That is fun. I've never been hunting before. What do you hunt?

[Speaker 2] Just birds and small prey. Nothing big.

[Speaker 1] What are you having for lunch that you had to tell them no broccoli?

[Speaker 2] Chicken and broccoli fettuccine, no broccoli please lol

[Speaker 1] That sounds good... Even with the broccoli.

[Speaker 2] Do you play any video games?

I have 2 jobs.

I like the red hot chili peppers and am going to see them in concert.

I've never been hunting.

I like broccoli.

I'm a police officer.

I like hunting. I hunt birds and small prey.

I do not like broccoli.

[Speaker 1] How's work going? Did you arrest anyone lately?

[Speaker 2] No, came close with some 23.01s and 24.01s -- which is drunk and disorderly. But they managed to calm themselves down and get a ride home. So that was good.

[Speaker 1] You are very nice. Did you get any birds on your last hunting trip?

[Speaker 2] No luck last time, no. To be honest, though, we didn't really try all that hard. A couple too many beers beforehand, so my accuracy was a little off. Have you given any more thought to going hunting yourself? The first time is pretty mjemorable!

[Speaker 1] I have been thinking about hunting since talked to you last time. I would love to give it a try, but am worried my inexperience may drag the whole team down.

[Speaker 2] Don't worry about that. We are a super mellow bunch of guys and we don't take it very seriously, except for the safety part. No one is going to expect you to be Mr. Big Game Poacher or anything. None of us are. So if that's what you're mostly concerned about, you shouldn't be. It's cool, I promise.

[Speaker 1] Thanks for you encourage. When will you go hunting again? If my schedule allows, I will love to go with you.

[Speaker 2] It's hard to say. Sometimes it can be a very last minute decision. Probably sometime in April, but not sure when. After tax day, I think.

[Speaker 1] April should be good for me. Regardless when, what should I prepare for the first trip?

[Speaker 2] We can give you everything you'll need. We've got the vests, the outerwear, ammo, and all that. Just bring whatever food and coffee you think you're gonna want. I'm excited that you want to come along.

[Speaker 1] You are really so kind. I can at least prepare some food for the team. are there any food allergies in the group?

[Speaker 2] I don't think so. Just keep it simple. No truffles or lady fingers please! But I would like to taste that broccoli dish you told me about.

I have 2 jobs.

I've never been hunting. I would like to consider hunting.

I like broccoli. I like to cook. I am courteous.

I tend to be busy.

I'm a police officer.

I am an avid hunter. I hunt birds and small prey.

I do not like broccoli. I drink occasionally.

I am concerned for safety.

[Speaker 1] We are planning a hunting trip next week. You would enjoy it and we are happy to have you tag along.

[Speaker 2] This will be your first hunting trip. Have you taken any gun safety and/or hunting safety classes? What about the rest of your group?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I have. What about you?

[Speaker 2] I have to recertify my shooting skills on a regular basis as do all police officers. Guns are serious things and should always be respected. What were you planning to hunt?

[Speaker 1] I plan to hunt lapwings a small bird

[Speaker 2] Will you be hunting on private property? If not are the licenses very expensive, will I need to buy any stamps for particular birds?

[Speaker 1] It will be private property

[Speaker 2] In that case I will join you I have time off coming. Where should we meet up? I prefer a nice coffee shop or diner to fill up on food and fuel up on coffee myself.

[Speaker 1] There is a coffee place near me, Does that suit?

[Speaker 2] That would be great. I will get the details from you later I have to get ready for work now. Bye.

I like listening to all genres of music except country music.

I watch a lot of tv.
My favorite food is a cheeseburger.
I enjoy fishing.
I live alone.
I work on cars for a living.

I enjoy the cooler seasons.

I want to be a jetsetter.

I'm energized by social situations.

I am open to anything besides the hillbilly stuff.

Television viewing occupies most of my time.

I need to make healthier choices when I go out to eat.

I love to catch sea bass.

I'm a solo life explorer.

I am a mechanic.

[Speaker 1] What sort of music do you like?

[Speaker 2] I like jazz mostly and I lie watching alot of tv

[Speaker 1] Jazz is nice, I like all music except country.

[Speaker 2] So whats your favorite food? Mine are cheeseburgers

[Speaker 1] I'm a big fan of international food. I want to travel the world.

[Speaker 2] Nice! I live by myself so I want to just travel and see the work

[Speaker 1] I just want to avoid areas of the world that are hot. I like cold weather.

[Speaker 2] I want to go somewhere where I can do some fishing

[Speaker 1] That's nice, I like fishing with my friends and family.

[Speaker 2] I'm a mechanic and am trying to save money to go to panama

[Speaker 1] Panama is too hot for my tastes but that does sound fun!

[Speaker 2] My friend went there and he loved it, so that enticed me to go

I don't like country music.

I like international food. I want to travel.

I don't like hot weather. I like cold weather.

I like jazz, TV.

I like to eat cheeseburgers.

I live alone. I want to travel.

I enjoy fishing. I work on cars for a living.

[Speaker 1] What do you want to do in Panama?

[Speaker 2] You might think this is a stupid reason, but still... Have you seen a movie called Sahara with  Matthew McConaughey? There was one thing related to Panama and since I've seen the movie I just wanted to visit this place.

[Speaker 1] Hey I have seen that! I thought that was in Africa somewhere though, since it's named Sahara? I do understand the desire to go to those places though, but not the places that are hot. Haha. Have you ever traveled somewhere just to go fishing?

[Speaker 2] There was a scene about Panama, nevermind, I'll explain you later :) Yes, actually, last year I travelled to Russia. My uncle lives here and he's a pro winter fisherman! It was an awesome experience.

[Speaker 1] That's awesome! I love visiting cold places. How long has your uncle lived in Russia?

[Speaker 2] He moved there as soon as he retired. Everyone was telling him to reconsider, since people usually retire to warm places, but he wasn't listening :P And I think he made a right choice - the views there are fantastic! It is very cold there though, so it's not for everyone.

[Speaker 1] What is there to do there besides fish? Do you get to watch tv or attend any jazz concerts when you visit?

[Speaker 2] As much as I love jazz, Russia is not the place for it haha. TV is mostly in Russian too, and I'm not familiar with the language, so most of the time I was just enjoying the views and taking a break from my job. I think you would've loved it there, considering that it's mostly cold weather.

[Speaker 1] Absolutely. The cold weather is invigorating to me. You mentioned taking a break from your job... What kind of work do you do?

[Speaker 2] I think I told you before, I'm a car mechanic at the local firm. I mean they pay well and the job itself is not that bad, but any job will annoy you after some time, you know? What about your job though? I don't think you told me where you work.

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah, I just meant what kind of work on cars... but now I see. I'm actually retired now, which is why I'm able to go fishing so often now. I'm lucky to have friends and family to go with me on my fishing trips, like you were able to do with your uncle. What's the best part about working on cars?

[Speaker 2] For me the best part is that I know what I'm doing, I know what to expect. It gives you some sort of a certainty. Not sure if I can explain it, I guess it's just my own experience so far. I've been working on cars since my dad taught me to, so for me it's the only thing I know in a way.

I don't like country music.

I like fishing with my friends and family. I am retired.

I like jazz, TV and movies.

[Speaker 1] Oh, that sounds like a lot of fun. Currently I do not have any trips planned, but me and my friends might go to a fishing trip sometime soon.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like fun. What kind of fish are you going for?

[Speaker 1] It is a lot of fun. We tend to go fishing for bass. It is usually a challenge to catch them, but that makes it more fun.

[Speaker 2] Are there a lot of lakes and ponds near you with bass? I usually go for trout.

[Speaker 1] Depends on how long the drive is. There is a couple within an hour from where I live.

[Speaker 2] You're lucky! I feel like I have to drive at least two hours to go fishing. What's your personal best for a bass?

[Speaker 1] I think my best is a 16 pound bass. That one was a very tough catch but definitely a trophy.

[Speaker 2] Wow! That's a chunker! Did you get it taxidermized, or just take pics?

[Speaker 1] Just pictures. I usually throw the fishes back in.

[Speaker 2] That's nice. Sometimes when I am camping, I'll eat trout, but I usually try and throw them back.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, pretty new. It is my first year.

[Speaker 1] Impressive! I usually visit the doctor for my asthma.

[Speaker 2] Do you pretend to blow the candles out?

[Speaker 1] Not usually. It is upsetting because I love running and to dance but it is hard.

[Speaker 2] I go to the beach a lot, the air there is great

[Speaker 1] Oh, what exactly is an obstetrician? Can you elaborate?

[Speaker 2] An obstetrician is a doctor who specializes in pregnancy and childbirth.  He or she also specializes in woman's reproductive system..

[Speaker 1] Thanks for the explanation! How is your first year going so far? Any stories?

[Speaker 2] Nothing special.  My coworkers are very nice and we become friends.  You said you used to enjoy hockey.  Does it mean that you do not like it any longer?  What happened?

[Speaker 1] I still like it but I'm too busy these days to really play. I watch sometimes but games are long. All my spare time is dedicated to running and dancing. There's not enough time!

[Speaker 2] No trip plans for this year. Maybe for next year, I love to go to Alaska. Do you go dancing often?

[Speaker 1] I try to when I can find someone to go with me. I don't like to go alone. What do you want to do in Alaska?

[Speaker 2] I like to see the wild animals in the wildness. It would be nice to cruise through the ice mountains. Can you find hockey matches in our area?

[Speaker 1] Yes, there are a few minor league teams. They seem to be good games to watch because they are playing hard to make it to the next level.

[Speaker 2] That's interesting. I had a painful tooth last week and went to see a dentist. It was really not something I like. Do you still run on a regular basis?

[Speaker 1] I try to. I find that if I sign up for a race, I tend to train more. What did the dentist do about your tooth?

[Speaker 2] The dentist pulled out that tooth. Yike! That is a great idea to sign up for a race to be motivated to run more. When I get more free time, we should run together.

[Speaker 1] I would like that. I would like to try trail running. Does that sound ok?

[Speaker 2] What does trail running mean? Do we run on trails in the woods? I would love that.

[Speaker 1] Next week. We play death metal. I hope people like it!

[Speaker 2] I bet they sure will! Your band is very talented. Do you blog or teach music for side income?

[Speaker 1] No, but maybe I should. I'd like to earn some money on the side so I can move out of my parents' house!

[Speaker 2] Yes, I suggest you try. The blogging can eventually be mainly a passive income stream Teaching music can earn you dozens of dollars an hour with your skills. Plus, it might look good on your resume when you apply for your first job out of college. When will you be graduating?

[Speaker 1] Thanks for the advice! I think you are right. I do blog about math, which is fun but it is not earning me much money. I will graduate in two more years.

[Speaker 2] In the beginning, people earn next to nothing but if you keep blogging with passion, you will slowly get there (earning passive side income). I have a Youtube channel and blog about tutoring Math which earns me some passive income.

[Speaker 1] Nice! How long have you been doing this? And you are also a teacher in real life, too?

[Speaker 2] I have been blogging and creating Youtube content for nearly a decade on top of my main job teaching at a middle school in New York City. What is your career plan after graduation?

[Speaker 1] Well, I'd really like to work on my music full-time, maybe try to get a record deal.

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a good plan!
