[Speaker 1] How has your writing been going since we last talked?

[Speaker 2] I finished two more chapters of my novel about the south pacific. Rough draft of course but I'm excited about it. How's your work been?

[Speaker 1] That's wonderful! More or less, work has been the same as it always is; accounting isn't a field that has a lot of variety or interesting developments. I did go on a nice hike at the Cedar Ridge Preserve in Dallas, though. Have you gone hiking recently?

[Speaker 2] Yeah I just got back from visiting my dad in Texas and we went to Big Bend and did a lot of hiking.

[Speaker 1] That sounds really nice. It's always nice to spend quality time with your parents. But I haven't been on that path yet! Was it scenic?

[Speaker 2] It's incredible. It's a very long drive from civilization though. It's nice that you live with your mom. No travel necessary!

[Speaker 1] Even though it's a long drive from civilization, I hope it was worth it! Sometimes those beautiful sights are worth the long travel. And it really is nice to live with my mom; we love spending quality time together, and I love helping her with her business when I can. Have you seen your mom recently?

[Speaker 2] I have. She lives near me in Oregon. We like to spend time outdoors together.

[Speaker 1] That's wonderful; I'm glad you have gotten to spend time with her, too. I want to talk about Bob Ross, though - I saw a documentary on him the other day. It was fascinating!

[Speaker 2] He was such a bright light! I grew up watching him on PBS. Only 6 channels back then remember?

[Speaker 1] I remember! Those were the days. Things were so much simpler back when we were young, when we only had 6 channels! I used to love watching his show after school. I'm glad that I can still see clips of his show on YouTube; they give me nostalgia.

[Speaker 2] He was taken too soon for sure. I love that we can still watch those reruns also.

I am a vegan.

I love hiking.

I live in Dallas, North Texas.

I like Bob Ross. I grew up watching Bob Ross on PBS.

I'm a writer. I'm writing a novel about the south pacific.

[Speaker 1] Doesn't your dad live in Dallas? I just went hiking at the Cedar Ridge Preserve in Dallas.

[Speaker 2] Good memory! He's just in Arlington, so just a bit west of you. How was the hike? I've always wanted to check out Cedar Ridge while visiting Dad, but it never worked out.

[Speaker 1] It was beautiful!  Not many people out, so I mostly had the trail to myself.  Have you been on any hikes in Oregon lately?

[Speaker 2] I did a quick 3-mile circuit in the Cascades last month, but the weather's been too wet to get out very often. What else have you been up to lately?

[Speaker 1] well as an accountant I've mostly been busy doing people's taxes, so nothing very fun.  I was lucky to get out on the trail today.  Have you done your taxes yet?

[Speaker 2] Ah, right...and here I was going to forget about tax season. I guess it's a good thing you reminded me so I won't be late to file! I've just been so caught up in my writing lately.

[Speaker 1] haha yes i'm good at reminding people to get their taxes done!  how is the story coming along?  is it adventure, drama, romance, horro?

[Speaker 2] This one is an adventure drama set in the Philippines during WWII. Do you think once tax season is over you could help me out by reading the chapter drafts I have so far? I'd love to hear your opinion.

[Speaker 1] That would be amazing!  I love historical fiction, so I'd really enjoy helping out.  I don't know much about what was happening in the Philippines during the war, have mostly focused my reading on Europe.

[Speaker 2] Thanks! It was a fascinating time, and the cultural interaction between the soldiers and the local islanders makes for some good material. I've really enjoyed the research. Any recommendations for historical fiction based in Europe?

[Speaker 1] i've been on a non-fiction kick lately but the last WWII fiction I read was All The Light We Cannot See, which was quite good.  However if you have any interest in American history I'd recommend Undaunted Courage about Lewis and Clark.  What's the most interesting thing you've learned about the Phillipines so far?

[Speaker 2] I'd never heard of All The Light We Cannot See, but I just looked it up and it sounds compelling. I'll have to give it a go soon. I have an idea I may have read the Lewis and Clark book for school ages ago. I think the family ties in the Filipino culture are really admirable. Have you ever met anyone from there?

[Speaker 2] I love running! It helps me to relax.

[Speaker 1] I sleep a lot to relax.

[Speaker 2] Growing up, my brother and I helped mom and dad on the farm.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun. Kind of. I have boots I could wear on a farm

[Speaker 2] We have lots of boots on the farm. What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] I play in a metal band and rock with my spiky hair

[Speaker 2] My 2 nephews are into the metal scene.

[Speaker 1] Do they have any leather hats I could borrow?

[Speaker 2] My nephews might, I do not, sorry.

[Speaker 1] Ask them for me. It would help!

[Speaker 2] What do you need them for?

[Speaker 1] I like leather clothes. Leather everything!

[Speaker 2] Oh I see! Wow, I've heard wonderful things. Do not get much truck routes that way

I like to read. I like flowers. I have dogs.

I live in an apartment in San Francisco.

I have a bike. I take public transportation.

My back is hurt.

I like to nap.

I live in an apartment.

[Speaker 1] How is your back doing after your last driving run? Any better or just as bad?

[Speaker 2] Much better now, though still not 100%. I just finished my last rehab session after 12 weeks, but I still have a a few check-ups coming. I live in an apartment in New York City. I love riding bikes too! That must be a good workout if you're riding up those hills in SF.

[Speaker 1] Yes, it's a good exercise riding in SF. I have never been in New York city. It must be very crowded. Are your parents also in New York?

[Speaker 2] Yes it is, but that's what I like about it as well. You can be whoever you want to be and everyone is too busy with their own business. My parents passed away when I was 19. Are you originally from San Francisco?

[Speaker 1] I am sorry to hear about your parents. Yes, I was born and grow up in bay area. I just read a good book, Human. Do you like to read?

[Speaker 2] Thank you; it's okay. Yes, I do like to read. These days it's mostly speculative/cyberpunk fiction and cookbooks. What is the book about?

[Speaker 1] It's about all different people. Right, the author interviewed many people in NYC. You must like it.

[Speaker 2] Maybe I'll give it a look. Honestly, I'm not that interested in people, generally. Are you currently in school to be a nurse or do you wish to be?

[Speaker 1] I am applying for nurse school and hope I can start this fall. What are you doing for living?

[Speaker 2] I am a chef. I had to take a break due to my back injury. A few of my friends are nurses, and they say it's a great job if you have the right attitude for it. Did you always want to be a nurse?

[Speaker 1] I have wanted to be a nurse since childhood. I like to help with people. What is your favorite dish to prepare?

[Speaker 2] You sound like a caring person. Also explains the dogs. hmmm, my favourite dish to prepare has to be seafood paella. It's always a crowd-pleaser at dinner parties. Do you have a favourite cuisine or food?

I'm a chef. My favorite dish to prepare is seafood paella. I have friends who are nurses.

[Speaker 1] I just heard back from the nurse school I applied to.

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah?  What did they say? Did you get in?

[Speaker 1] hello, they said I got in. I am happy

[Speaker 2] That's fantastic!  Are you going to celebrate tonight?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I am going to have people over to my apartment.

[Speaker 2] Very cool.  Sometimes a small gathering with close friends is better than a huge celebration.  I'm not too good with people so a small party with close friends is a lot more meaningful than a big blowout.

[Speaker 1] Yes, they will be my medical friends from the office. They will all meet my dogs

[Speaker 2] Oh, very nice.  What kind of dogs do you have?  I tend to like animals more than people.

[Speaker 1] They are both mixed breeds. Why do you like animals more than people?

[Speaker 2] I don't know probably some personality, some past experience.  Animals are easier to get along with than people...they just want your love and attention and they return it unconditionally.  People are complicated.

[Speaker 1] That is very true. Sometimes I get lost talking to people

[Speaker 2] I know what you mean.  You proabablly run into some interesting people on public transportation in San Francisco.  Ever have any good conversations there?

I am interested in men.

[Speaker 1] I just found the greatest hamburger place downtown.

[Speaker 2] Oh really? What makes it better than all the rest?

[Speaker 1] The hamburgers they make there just taste great and they are huge as well.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, I might have to find someone to split one with, then. Does your girlfriend like it?

[Speaker 1] She hasn't been yet I went in there well I was down town doing some shopping on my own. I think I'm going to have to take her there though to try it.

[Speaker 2] Let me know what she thinks. We sound a lot alike, so if she likes it, I'll have to check it out. What were you shopping for downtown?

[Speaker 1] I will do, I was looking for a present for my girlfriend as her birthday is coming up soon.

[Speaker 2] Oh, that is exciting. Did you find anything for her? I wish I had a man to buy me birthday gifts!

[Speaker 1] Are you on any dating apps trying to find one? Yeah I have brought her a nice new jewellery set to wear for when we go out.

[Speaker 2] That sounds lovely! I'm sure she is really going to like it. I'm a little nervous of the apps. How did you two meet?

[Speaker 1] We meet using an app and I can truly say I have found my soulmate. I'm so glad I took the plunge to use them, you have to be careful using them but their are some great people out there.

[Speaker 2] Oh, that gives me hope then! I'll have to download one this weekend to play around with it. I'm so nervous about setting up a profile! What do I even say about myself?

I love my girlfriend. My girlfriend gardens. I met my girlfriend on a dating app.

I like hamburgers. I eat meat.

I work at an animal shelter as a caregiver.

I attend church. I like to spear fish.

[Speaker 1] Did you download any dating apps?

[Speaker 2] Yes I actually did.  I was nervous, but I took the leap.

[Speaker 1] Good for you. Just remember there are a lot of creeps that use these apps so try to be careful. However I think dating apps are the best way to meet people these days.

[Speaker 2] Yeah it does seem a lot easier and efficient than wasting countless nights going on dates only to find out there's nothing there.  How long have you been seeing your girlfriend?

[Speaker 1] Just over 4 years now. I know she's the one I want to marry I'm just saving a bit of money before I propose. I think she feels the same about me.

[Speaker 2] So there is hope with the dating apps!  I'm really happy for you two, it makes me happy to know others have a smile on their face.  I hope I can find someone like that.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure you will. Dating apps let you find very specific people that you're looking for so you can find you're perfect soulmate. I'm still deciding how I want to propose let me know if you have nay ideas.

[Speaker 2] Hmm do you guys have a special place or anything like that?  What is she into?  I think traditional is always best, but with your own spin on it of course.

[Speaker 1] Right maybe something related to gardening since she loves it so much. I could probably spell it out with roses or something.

[Speaker 2] Or maybe bury the box loosely under the soil so she could "hit" it when she's digging?

[Speaker 1] That's a really good idea you're smart with this haha. We'' see though I won't probably propose until next year so I might come up with more ideas.

[Speaker 2] Well I'm sure whatever you come up with will be great!

I like hamburgers. I eat meat.

My girlfriend's birthday is soon. I've bought my girlfriend jewellery. I've been dating my girlfriend for over 4 years. I want to marry her. I plan to propose to my girlfriend next year.

I attend church. I like to spear fish.

I downloaded a dating app.

[Speaker 1] Have  you found anyone you're interested in on your dating app?

[Speaker 2] Not yet. I keep trying out of bordem.

[Speaker 1] Hang in there.... I can tell you it’s worth it!

[Speaker 2] I hope so! It is amazing you've been with your girlfriend for four years. I hope to find something like that.

[Speaker 1] Yes.... I had never imagined that I’d find the love of my life on a dating app! I was about to give up... that’s why I say keep at it :)

[Speaker 2] Have you thought about what you're getting her for her birthday? It is almost Dahlia season. Maybe some seeds would be nice.

[Speaker 1] That’s a great idea... thanks much.... it’s going to be a big hit with her! How long have you been gardening?!

[Speaker 2] Not very long. It is a recent passion of mine! So relaxing.

[Speaker 1] I think my girlfriend would agree.... she finds it very zen too! I must confess though that I don’t have a green thumb

[Speaker 2] I thought I didn't either! It gets easier with time for sure. I started with flowers, but might move on to fruit and veggies!

[Speaker 1] That’s awesome... you give me hope. I might just give it a try and score some brownie points with my lady ;)

[Speaker 2] Let me know how it goes! I'd love to grab a burger with you two and steal some pointers from her.

[Speaker 2] Well, I'm having a tough time telling my parents I'm gay.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's a big moment. I wish I had some advice for you

[Speaker 2] I just bury myself in welding or gaming whenever I think about telling them.

[Speaker 1] Well nothing wrong with that sugar!

[Speaker 2] I make great money as a welder. What do you do?

[Speaker 1] Accounting. But hobbies mean to me than my job. I'm going on a european cruise!

[Speaker 2] That will be fun. I almost took a job on a cruise ship as a guitarist.

[Speaker 1] Oh cool! I have always what it would be like to work on a cruise ship

[Speaker 2] I think it would have been fun but welding pays so well.

[Speaker 1] It sounds like you have got alot going for you. I think you would like my cats

[Speaker 2] I love cats. How many do you have?

[Speaker 1] I am a breeder for maine coon cats. Right now I have about... 37.

[Speaker 2] Wow!! That's a lot of cats.

I do accounting for a job. I prefer hobbies to my job. I breed maine coon cats and I have 37 of them.

I am gay.
I work as a welder.
I like cats.

[Speaker 1] Two of my cats ran off the street. It took half hour to get them back.

[Speaker 2] Well, I'm glad you found them. I imagine it can be very hard to keep up with that many cats though. However, can you afford to feed them all?

[Speaker 1] Well, I breed them, so people purchase the cats from me once they are old enough.  So some of that goes, towards, food, shelter, etc.

[Speaker 2] Gotcha, it just seems like that is a whole bunch of kitties. But, I have a couple myself. They can be sweethearts.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, sometimes it can be a little chaotic, for sure.  Do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 2] well, funny enough, even though my job is all about welding, I enjoy doing it after work too. I create some steel sculptures using my welding skills. What are your hobbies?

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's cool.  So you're an artist?  What are your sculptures usually of?

[Speaker 2] I do sculptures for home decor, outside sculptures, business sculptures. It's very fulfilling.

[Speaker 1] That's great!  I'm a little crafty myself, but I wouldn't call myself an artist per say.  I like to sew and do jigsaw puzzles.

I do accounting for a job. I prefer hobbies to my job. I breed and sell maine coon cats and I have 37 of them.

I sew and do jigsaw puzzles.

I am gay.

I like cats.

I have a couple cats.

I have a welding Job. I create steel sculptures as a hobby.

I do sculptures for home decor, outside sculptures, business sculptures.

[Speaker 1] I can bring my cats to meet yours.

[Speaker 2] We can have an entire party! You going to bring all 37 of them?

[Speaker 1] Lmao! Idk about ALL 37 of them, Emory alone can be hard to handle, he's the youngest of them.

[Speaker 2] I've got a fenced in backyard will that help? LOL. Don't worry, figured you'd bring one of two. DO they need any special kind of food?

[Speaker 1] I'd bring Sammie and Jynx, they are the most social ones so far. I try to feed them quality food that I cook myself. Usually I just make a big batch of chicken, rice and other veggies from my garden. What type of fence do you have? I figured with all the welding art you do, you'd make something unique!

[Speaker 2] The part the neighbors can't see is very ornate. Unfortuantely, my neighbors are uptight and complain to the city code office if they can see any fence that isn't in compliance with the stupid neighborhood rules.

[Speaker 1] This is why I will NEVER join an H.O.A... too many rules and nosy neighbors. I prefer the countryside for that reason. My dad built a shed "too close" to the neighbors back yard and had to take it down. Of course they waited until it was up for 3 months before complaining to the association... :(

[Speaker 2] HOA is why I had to move my sculpture studio from my garage to a storage locker. You're much better off.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's ridiculous. How do you fair working in such tight spaces? I figured you need to rig something up for ventilation, I know those fumes can be hazardous to your health. One of my really good friends died from not having his studio ventilated correctly.

[Speaker 2] For the sculptures I don't "sculpt" in the traditional sense. I use a lot of scrap metal and pull and push it into different shapes and then bolt it together. So luckily no fumes

[Speaker 1] Oh that's cool, my friend was welding everything together, he made some beautiful garden pieces. I'd go with him to some of the craft fairs and he would kill it! Have most of his product sold by lunch and be ready to pack up. That's good you're just bolting most of it together but that's still got to be so time consuming.

[Speaker 2] It is time consuming, but rewarding. I use to weld them, but if felt too much like taking work home with me and not a fun hobby.

[Speaker 2] That sounds neat.  I wish I could sew.  Sounds very relaxing.  Our store is doing well, so far.  Hard work, though.

[Speaker 1] I bet. Is it difficult working so closely with your family? I don't think I could ever work with my family without us wanting to kill each other.

[Speaker 2] We are close so we tend to get along.  But our jobs have us doing different things in different locations so we don't interact as much as you think.  The customers on the other hand. . .

[Speaker 1] Haha. Yeah customers can be pretty frustrating. I worked in a grocery store when I was in high school and I remember they were the worst part of the job. Are you still keeping up with the WWE wrestling?

[Speaker 2] Yes, when I'm not working.  How are your new glasses feeling?

[Speaker 1] They feel really good. I'm glad I finally got some. It's amazing how much of a difference wearing glasses can make. Any tips for a new glasses wearer?

[Speaker 2] Be careful where you put them when you take them off!  I broke my first pair like that.  Don't use harsh chemicals to clean them.  What style did you get?  I bet you look nice!

[Speaker 2] No! Seriously? That was ambitious! How did it turn out?

[Speaker 1] It was edible! Yeah I had been working up to try it,I watched like 10 youtube recipe videos. When do you leave?

[Speaker 2] Haha...yeah, I know how that goes! Sometimes I spend more time watching recipe videos than actually preparing the meal. I'm leaving next weekend, and I'm so nervous! Do you think he'll be glad to see me?

[Speaker 1] Understandable your nervous, but it has been coming for such a long time, you will be fine! Yes, I think he will be happy to see you, he has a lot of catching up to do with you. Have any plans with him while your there?

[Speaker 2] Thanks for the reassurance, I'm sure it will be great once we get together. We've only spoken for brief phone conversations so far, but I understand we share an enjoyment of museums. That will give us plenty to do in Paris.

[Speaker 1] Yes! check out the louvre, there is a lot to do in Paris, I go there frequently for conferences. The subway system is very convenient. Make sure you take a walk along the Seine!

[Speaker 1] If I was looking for a healthy recipe website or blog, which would you recommend?

[Speaker 2] I would definitely recommend Food Network. That has be my go-to for almost all my recipes!

[Speaker 1] I'll start watching! I have a tv set up in my kitchen, so I should cook along with them.

[Speaker 2] Yes! you should call me if you need any help with anything, I love cooking.

[Speaker 1] I totally will. I should try to catch you before you jet to Paris! Have you made all your preparations?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I am just about packed up. I am very excited to see my dad, and to try escargot.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure you'll love that. It's much better than it sounds. Maybe one of these days we'll cross paths in Paris!

[Speaker 2] Ah yes! Maybe we will learn how to cook in Paris together!

[Speaker 1] Haha exactly! I'm sure you can take gourmet cooking classes there. How fun would that be!

[Speaker 2] That would be amazing!

[Speaker 1] In the mean time, maybe you could try taking one with your dad while you're there! It might be a low-stress way to bond with him.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure you did great!  What was the job position you interviewed for?

[Speaker 2] A media consultant, I just graduated and always thought it would be fun to do that kind of work!  What do you do at the publishing company?

[Speaker 1] That's great!  Keep me posted on what they say.  I'm actually an Editor but I've been considering branching out into the fashion industry.

[Speaker 2] I'll definitely let you know!  Ahh fashion, of course!  I'm still waiting on that awesome red jacket you promised me!  Do you want to get into clothing design?

[Speaker 1] Yes, clothing design would be my dream job.  I just need your measurements then I can finish it!  I think you'll love it!  Since you exercise so much, maybe you could be a model for me!  Are you good looking? LOL!

[Speaker 2] I could definitely be a model....I think.... :)  I mean, I always thought I was attractive but I guess you never know how other people see you lol.  I'm definitely in good shape because of all the exercising I do, I love to run!  I'll have to get you my measurements soon too

[Speaker 1] You better!  Once, I get your measurements it should only take me about a week to finish it off.  Then once I'm done with your jacket, I'll make you some more clothing that will fit you like a glove that you can model for me.  I'll even pay you.  Have you ever modeled before?

[Speaker 2] That's really fast, you must be really good!  I can't wait to see it once it's done!  I'll try to get my measurements asap!  Wow, pay even??  That would be amazing!  And help me make ends meet while I'm waiting to find out about this job interview!  I've never tried modeling before but always been interested in it.  Is it hard?

[Speaker 1] I've never modeled.  I don't have the body or face for it.  Ha ha!  But it seems like it would be a nice way to earn a little extra cash!  How often do you run?

[Speaker 2] LOL I'm sure you look great!  I'm excited to meet you in person!  It would be a great way I think!  I'm excited to try it!  I try to run a few times a week.  A couple shorter runs during the week and a longer one on the weekends.  Wanna come with me sometime?

I love eating onions.

I collect crystals.

I am an Editor at a publishing company but I want to transition into the fashion industry.

[Speaker 1] I would be interested in running with you but didn't do cross country. Would you be able to train me?

[Speaker 2] Well i sure could help you do cross country. It gets easier over time and is better to do in groups sometimes. What is the sudden urge to run, do you like it?

[Speaker 1] I keep hearing about the benefits of running, so I'd like to find out for myself!

[Speaker 2] Oh, great! Yeah running is good for you, although some say it's healthier to walk long distances. I get bored easily though so i couldn't only walk for such a long time. I think it'll be nice to get together, i need friends. Have you thought about becoming a model for your own clothes one day?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I think about it every morning when I get out of bed. Then I stand in front of the mirror...

[Speaker 2] Hey well no worry! I remember when I was very unfit and didn't look the best, all it requires is some effort every week and you'll get there in no time.

[Speaker 1] I appreciate the motivation. I really should take more ownership over my own health and fitness. In the mean time, I'll leave the modeling to you!

[Speaker 2] I'll enjoy modeling for you, I've always like the idea of being able to model. Hey how's the red jacket coming along?

[Speaker 1] It's looking great! You'll need to come in so I can do some fine-tuning on the tailoring. It will look hot with your figure!

[Speaker 2] Haha okay cool, I can actually come in a little later today if that's okay? I have so much free time lately because I don't have a job so I'm free a lot.

[Speaker 1] I think I could squeeze you in, both literally and figuratively lol. I'd love to get measurements for the pants that go with it, too.

[Speaker 1] Interesting. I haven't really met anyone that knew exactly what they would be doing as an adult when they were in high school.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I used to love math in school, I think I could dust off the skills and give you a hand. Math and science are important subjects! Think you might want to do more in post secondary?

[Speaker 1] Thanks! I really appreciate it. I'm still not sure what I'll major in, but I'm leaning towards something that would get me into the biotech industry. Do you know much about biotech?

[Speaker 2] Yeah biotech would be great, I follow it on the stock market. It's really picking up! It would be a good industry!

[Speaker 1] Yeah, it seems like there are a lot of possibilities developing in that field these days. What other industries do you follow in the market?

[Speaker 2] I really follow quantum computing closely, I think that will take off in the future. I consult some companies on it, its definitely coming along!

[Speaker 1] Wow, that sounds awesome. I've seen a couple of YouTube videos about quantum computing, it's so crazy to try and wrap your mind around. What companies do you consult?

[Speaker 2] Yeah its really wild stuff, but I guarantee you its real! They will have to re-write the internet for it when it comes out for encryption. I have been dealing with IBM mostly.

[Speaker 1] Mind-blowing. That's cool that you get to consult for such big companies. Do you feel that freelancing is more enjoyable than working for one company?

[Speaker 2] I find it harder working for myself, but it is more rewarding! Plus I don't have to deal with as many people, which I enjoy!

[Speaker 1] Hey how are you?

[Speaker 2] My beta fish and I are good! Trying to come up with another poem. You?

[Speaker 1] I am fine... I am about to leave for cheer practice soon though p

[Speaker 2] Are you in high school college? What kind of team are you cheering for?

[Speaker 1] I'm in college... I'm only 21. I cheer for my schools football team!!!

[Speaker 2] Are they any good? Do you have other hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I would like to think so, but in reality not really. I love the outdoors as well

[Speaker 2] I enjoy golfing with my friends, and I am a bid deal at the gun club

[Speaker 1] Oh, that sounds fun d guns have always interested me

[Speaker 2] A cheerleader should know how to defend herself! Do you like charity work?

[Speaker 1] My cheer practice got cancelled.

[Speaker 2] Oh no - did something happen?

[Speaker 1] No big deal. My coach had to pick up her sick kid at school. Are you planning to go golfing today?

[Speaker 2] That's a good reason. Hopefully you'll be able to practice again this weekend. No, not today - got some work to do.

[Speaker 1] I've got to cheer at the game on Saturday, and we get Sunday off. No more practice until next week. I have a ton of homework to catch up on, so there's no rest for the weary over here. What are you working on?

[Speaker 2] You're a hard working person. You got this! Just doing some freelance work for a friend. Might go golfing on Saturday if it's not raining.

[Speaker 1] I'll keep my fingers crossed! Cheering in the rain is miserable when it's so cold out. Maybe I should hire you to freelance some of my papers that are due! Haha! Know anything about the French and Indian War?

[Speaker 2] Learning is important - maybe a boring subject but hard work pays off. I don't know about the French and Indian War. Have you got a head start?

[Speaker 1] Yea, we made an outline during study group. I guess I could use my free time since practice was cancelled to get to work on it. I know I'll be glad to have the knowledge, but I'm not sure that I'll ever NEED it, lol.

[Speaker 2] Oh, I never used any of my history lessons at work - but this is a good time to sharpen up your writing skills and critical thinking skills - both are highly valued by employers!

[Speaker 1] You have a point. Writing is not too hard for me, but I tend to use the same words over and over. I'd prefer to be listening to a lecture than writing about it myself. I can't even begin to think about the math homework! Thankfully my roommate is a math whiz, so she helps me out.

[Speaker 2] It's great to have support. I have the same problem with words - I just google different words to use - usually does the trick! :)

I am in college. I am 21 years old. I am a cheerleader for my college's football team. I practice for cheerleading on the weekends. I am cheering for a game on Saturday.

I do charity work sometimes.

I have a paper about the French and Indian War that is due.

I prefer listening to lectures rather than writing about subjects. My roommate helps me with math homework.

I write poems.

I donate clothes to the homeless.

I am employed.

I do freelance work for friends.

[Speaker 1] Did you go golfing this weekend?

[Speaker 2] I was planning to go with a couple of buddies but it rained Saturday morning. There's always next week though! Did you ever get your history paper finished?

[Speaker 1] Yea, thank goodness! It took forever since it wasn't really a topic I enjoy.  I wish I had had more time to cheer instead.

[Speaker 2] Do you feel like your squad is ready for the big game this weekend?

[Speaker 1] Definitely - we've been practicing a lot.  One of the girls got injured unfortunately, but the girl filling in is really good too, so we should be fine.  I'm hoping for nice weather!  Are you going to watch the game?

[Speaker 2] Oh, that's too bad, I hope the injured girl can recover quickly. I'd love to watch the game, but I'll have to do it from home on the local TV channel. I'm working on a big project.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you'll see me on TV! Is it work for your job or is it a poetry project?

[Speaker 2] I'm sure I will! You guys always do such great routines, the cameraman is sure to swing your way often. This project is for work, I'm handling an extensive editing job for a friend's book.

[Speaker 1] Aww, thanks! Oh nice - what type of book is it?  That must be a lot of work editing an entire book!  That makes my history paper sound tiny, haha!

[Speaker 2] It's a book about finance and investing, so even though it's a lot of work, it might be worth it if I pick up some good advice along the way! Are there any classes you are enjoying this semester?

I do charity work sometimes.

I recently wrote a paper about the French and Indian War.

I have a big game I am cheerleading for this weekend.

I write poems.

I donate clothes to the homeless.

I am employed.

I do freelance work for friends.

I had been planning to go golfing this weekend but my plans were cancelled. I am working on a big project this weekend for work. I am editing a friend's book about finance and investing.

[Speaker 1] Have you and your friends rescheduled your golfing for this weekend, or are you going to be working on your project the whole time?

[Speaker 2] I guess I will be working all weekend and we will probably reschedule for next weekend. What about you? Any fun plans for the weekend?

[Speaker 1] Cheerleading this weekend should be fun. What about your golf plans?

[Speaker 2] I told you, they were cancelled! Well, postponed. Have you been cheerleading for most of your life?

[Speaker 1] I've been cheerleading since junior high. What kind of project are you working on?

[Speaker 2] Remember?  I am editing a friend's book about finance and investing. It's not as nice as golf but I kind of like editing.

[Speaker 1] Do you know a lot about finance and investing? Is that like the stock market?

[Speaker 2] Yes, they are related. But I work specifically for a firm and not for the stock market. Are you interested in finance?

[Speaker 1] It sounds like something I might want to do in college. All the news about the stock market recently got me interested.

[Speaker 2] It is definitely a relevant subject but it can be challenging. Do you enjoy math? There is a lot involved.

[Speaker 1] I'm OK in math. What other areas are there in finance?

[Speaker 2] THere are a lot. It's pretty diverse.There is some flexibility and you can choose what direction to go in.

[Speaker 2] I go to the lake sometimes.

[Speaker 1] Okay, we can go fishing sometime then

[Speaker 2] Yes, that would be quite wonderful!

[Speaker 1] Then we can discuss the hair style you want.

[Speaker 1] I also cook and read ha

[Speaker 2] What color is your hair? Mine is red!

[Speaker 1] Mine is normal. Are you a mom?

[Speaker 2] I have two dogs and their a job to be around.

[Speaker 1] I bet, I nurse people

[Speaker 2] Wow that is an exciting job to have. Red is the color of my hair!

[Speaker 1] How are your dogs doing?

[Speaker 2] They are doing great! They are super happy and spoiled as all dogs should be!  Right now they can't wait for this winter weather to go away so they can spend more time outside.  How have you been?

[Speaker 1] I've been doing really good and I can't blame them for wanting it to be warmer. What are your dogs' names?

[Speaker 2] I have a Sheltie named Princess and a Beagle named Turtle.  I can't remember, do you have dogs or are thinking of getting any?

[Speaker 1] I don't have any dogs, but I've been thinking about how it would be nice to have another reason to get outside. What kind of dog do you think I should get?

[Speaker 2] Well I am pretty biased but I think Shelties are great.  I know I have a Beagle to but Turtle can be kind of lazy.  Shelties like to run and play a lot so they're great for outdoors.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like the right dog for me. I don't want a dog that's lazy. I want a dog that's going to want to play fetch with me.

[Speaker 2] Beagles will when they are young but they are prone to weight gain and laziness with age so I advise a Sheltie or something along those lines.

[Speaker 1] Thanks for the suggestions. How old are your dogs?

[Speaker 2] Princess is 4 and Turtle is 7.  Oh and don't go by the fact that I have two as the number of dogs to get. I have been considering getting a puppy myself.

[Speaker 1] Yea, I think I just want one dog. I feel like two dogs would be a lot of work.

[Speaker 2] Maybe at first but once you get used to it it becomes a normal routine.  That's why getting a third is nothing for me.

I like cooking and reading.

My hair color is normal.

I am a nurse.

I like food.

I don't have any dogs. I like to get outside.

I want a dog.

My hair is red.

I like tall men.

I have two dogs, a Sheltie named Princess and a Beagle named Turtle.

Princess is 4 and Turtle is 7.

[Speaker 1] How are your dogs doing?

[Speaker 2] They are great! I took them to a dog park today and let them run and play. Do you think you might get a dog?

[Speaker 1] I really want a dog; where do you think is the best place to get a dog?

[Speaker 2] What kind of dog do you want? If you don't have a preference you could consider rescuing one from a shelter, there are so many dogs that need a home.

[Speaker 1] I want a golden retriever; where do you think I can get one? From a shelter still?

[Speaker 2] You can always check to see what kind of dogs they have. Do you know much about golden retrievers? I know there are many good books about dogs and the different breeds and how to take care of them. I have read several myself.

[Speaker 1] I will check to see if they have golden retrievers then. Thanks. I have read many books on golden retrievers' so i know what they eat etc.

[Speaker 2] Who will watch your dog while you are working?

[Speaker 1] My husband works from home and has a flexible schedule; so he can watch the dogs while I am at work? I already have a name for my dog- Wakanda

[Speaker 2] That is a great name! That will be nice to have your husband home while you are working so the dog doesn't get lonely. Do you only want one dog?

[Speaker 1] I probably will get another dog later but for now one will do. We should have a joint cook out together since we both like to cook; what do you think?

[Speaker 2] Yes, what will you cook? That sounds like a lot of fun.

[Speaker 2] I was freaking out but I'm a nurse so I know how to handle it.

[Speaker 1] I don't like people so I stay home

[Speaker 2] Sell the business and move here to grand rapids. Nice winters in michigan.

[Speaker 1] I could try that out maybe

[Speaker 2] I don't like my family. All my siblings are older than me and they start trouble

[Speaker 2] Being the youngest of 5 will make you the target of bullies.

[Speaker 1] He is helping me to become a male model in hollywood

[Speaker 2] Really? I didn't know he was a model. Does he know jason mraz?

[Speaker 1] No, but my low carb diet may allow for grasshoppers

[Speaker 2] I am sorry, am I speaking to will ferrill? Is this mr. Ferrellle?

[Speaker 1] Nope it is not, but I did overcome urinary cancer at age 18, so no joke please

[Speaker 1] Just got off work actually. I work at a comic book store.

[Speaker 2] Nice, I like comics that get turned into action movies

[Speaker 1] Me too. I was a huge superman fan as a kid.

[Speaker 2] Me too, my father would take me to watch that when he was not busy being a doctor

[Speaker 1] Oh really? What kind of doctor is your dad?

[Speaker 2] He is a surgeon. He gave me a restored mustang for my birthday

[Speaker 1] Nice! I taught my son to play music with his arm pits. Some dad, right?

[Speaker 2] Haha that's still pretty awesome for a dad

[Speaker 1] My girlfriend didn't think so. She said I was too immature.

[Speaker 2] That's rough. How long have you been dating?

[Speaker 1] About a year. But its over. I cheated on her with her cousin.

[Speaker 2] Oh man. Good luck, it was nice meeting you!

My name is James.

I work at a comic book store.

I was a fan of superman as a child.

I have a girlfriend.

I dated my girlfriend for a year, then cheated on her for her cousin.

My name is Jack.

I like comics that are turned into action movies.

I have a father who is a doctor.

My dad is a surgeon. I had a restored mustang at one point.

[Speaker 1] Hey Jack, how is you and your dad? What is your favorite action movie?

[Speaker 2] We are doing good, thanks for asking. One of my favorite action movies are The Fast and The Furious.

[Speaker 1] That's great! I actually work at a comic book store, and they have a lot of The Fast and Furious comic books. I am sure you'd love them if you liked this movie. You should definitely check it out!

[Speaker 2] Really! I had no idea. What a great job to have. So who is your favorite superhero now a days

[Speaker 1] I agree! Its definitely a fun job. Well, when I was a child I was a huge fan of Superman, but now I have geared towards Batman. I think he is more cool than Superman. What do you think?

[Speaker 2] Yea I like batman too. He has always been my favorite even as a kid. His batmobile has really been upgraded.

[Speaker 1] Yes, its way cooler now than the previous bat mobile. Anyways, do you still have that restored mustang that you happened to have at one point?

[Speaker 2] No I sold it and bought a house. You get into the garage just like one of the batman movies. The house is on top of it.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's awesome. I need to see your house then!

[Speaker 2] Yea anytime. I have it decked out with batman stuff I've collected through the years.

[Speaker 1] Cool. Will definitely plan a meet up soon. I am already excited!

[Speaker 2] I am too! we will get a date and time set up.

My name is James.

One of my favorite action movies are The Fast and The Furious.

I like Batman.

I sold my restored mustang. I bought a house.

[Speaker 1] What is your favorite fast and furious movie?

[Speaker 2] I think the first one was my favorite of the Fast and Furious movies! Are you still at the comic book store?

[Speaker 1] Yep. I would like a better rating job, but I doubt I'd find one I'd enjoy as much.

[Speaker 2] Understandable, it's always been my dream to hang out with comics all day. I would love to get first dibs on the new Batman comics

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that's the cool thing about it. How are you enjoying your house?

[Speaker 2] Being a homeowner is crazy! I thought restoring the mustang would prepare me for remodeling but it did not. Did you and your girlfriend get things figured out or did you end up splitting?

[Speaker 1] Nah, things never got better with my old girlfriend (my fault, I admit). But I'm dating someone new. She's not really into superheroes though.

[Speaker 2] Sorry to hear that y'all didn't work out but yay for finding someone new. Maybe she just hasn't found her superhero nerd-dom yet. I know you like Batman but you should recommend Marvel or Wonder Woman :)

[Speaker 1] I tried that, but I'm also just willing to accept that we have different interests. In the past, I was always trying to force my interests on others.

[Speaker 2] Smart. That's probably why I don't have a girlfriend lol. How long have you guys been together?

[Speaker 1] Only about a month and a half. We're still getting to know each other, and meeting each other's friends and family.

[Speaker 2] Ah the fun stage. I always had a hard time not being awkward when meeting the parents. I'm thinking about getting another mustang to restore because they seem easier than a girlfriend.

[Speaker 1] Have you played any sports today?

[Speaker 2] No it rained so much today. You seem to have played a lot sports at your age, how did you do that

[Speaker 1] I'm lucky that my school offered a lot of free opportunities. I haven't played much lately. Just a little football here and there.

[Speaker 2] Oh I see, you seem like a very bright young person who already knows what they want in life , I'm so proud of you and I'm sure you parents are too

[Speaker 1] Thank you, you too. I'm not sure what I want to do yet in life. I'm interested in firefighting or orthopedic surgery. How about you?

[Speaker 2] Yea, you are right it's hard making up one's mind while this young. I want to be a farm vet, but if that doesn't work out I will for something in the medical field maybe a doctor or even a radiologist, you never know it all depends

[Speaker 1] That sounds awesome. A farm vet sounds fun. I love animals.

[Speaker 1] Me too. For fun, I like to hang out with my dog. She's a Bichon Frise.

[Speaker 1] I took your advice and played a game of soccer with my dog. it was so fun!

[Speaker 2] That's great! Did you take your dog to a park or play at home?

[Speaker 1] We just stayed in the backyard since it was chilly out, but I want to the dog park this weekend. If my mom says it's okay, do you want to come? Maybe we could pick you up on the way.

[Speaker 2] Definitely! That would be really fun! I'll bring Champ. That's my spaniel's name. What's your dog's name?

[Speaker 1] Cool, I'll let you know after I ask my mom. Champ is a good name. My dog's name is Paris, because it's a french breed.

[Speaker 2] Nice name! I'll bring Champ's favorite tennis ball. Does Paris have any favorite toys?

[Speaker 1] He likes his green frisbee. Can Champ play fetch? Paris isn't very good at it yet, he gets distracted.

[Speaker 2] Champ has an orange frisbee that he loves. Yeah, he's pretty good at fetch. He'll play fetch with tennis balls or with big sticks. Does the park have a water fountain for the dogs?

[Speaker 1] That's cool. I'm going to teach Paris someday. I looked online and it says there is a water fountain and two play areas. Does Champ get along well with other dogs?

[Speaker 2] Champ does great with other dogs. He's medium sized, so he can play with smaller dogs and bigger dogs, too. How does Paris do with other dogs?

[Speaker 1] He's nice to them, but sometimes he gets nervous if the other dogs are running around a lot. That's why my mom said we should go to the dog park, so he can get used to other dogs more. I asked her just now and she said we can go! Do you want to eat lunch with us too?

[Speaker 2] I'm glad your mom said yes! I'd love to have lunch with you and your mom. What's on the menu?

I like ham and cheese.

I go to school. I am 10 years old.

I go to school. I am 15.

I want to be a farm vet.

I have a Springer Spaniel named Champ.

[Speaker 1] I haven't played soccer in awhile. When we take our dogs to the park, it would be great to play some soccer too! It could be fun to brush up on my skills with someone who still plays.

[Speaker 2] Sure. i will come with my ball and we can play. do you still have your playing boots?

[Speaker 1] I do! Do you think it would be a good idea to bring out dogs along to play soccer with us?

[Speaker 2] That would be a great idea. We will play fetch after we done playing soccer.

[Speaker 1] Awesome! My dog Paris will love that! Have you been practicing your soccer skills with anyone lately?

[Speaker 2] i play alot after school with my next door neighbour. my mom too plays soccer with me especially during the weekend. How is it living with your mom?

[Speaker 1] It has been really good living with my mom, but she almost threw away my soccer cleats the other day! I have to remind her that although I don't play soccer much, I still love the sport and want to try to fit it into my life. Have you had to deal with any issues of your parents not accepting the sports you play?

[Speaker 2] fortunately i have been spared from that since my mom is a soccer fanatic and my dad is open minded when it comes to sports.does Jorge play any sports?

[Speaker 1] Yes Jorge pretty much loves all sports but he also shares a love of Soccer as I do. It's probably one of the biggest reasons why we are best friends! Do you have any friends that you share the love of soccer with?

[Speaker 2] Yes, my next door neighbour is my best friend and we play together all the time. He will becoming to the park with me. he will bring us ham, his mum makes them pretty good

[Speaker 1] That sounds great! I can't wait to play soccer with you guys tomorrow and then fetch after!

[Speaker 2] Looking forward to that. ask your best friend to come too.

[Speaker 1] What is the name of your cat?

[Speaker 2] it's named fred. i got him from the shelter so i didn't pick his name..i figured i'd stick with what he was used to!

[Speaker 1] That's probably best for the both of you. Do you like the name that the shelter gave him?

[Speaker 2] hum it's not a name i automatically think of but i got used to it!

[Speaker 1] I wouldn't think of Fred at first either! I've switched the names of a few of my pets that I've adopted

[Speaker 2] what names did you switch?

[Speaker 1] One of my two dogs was named "Lady", but when I adopted her at 6 months old...she certainly didn't seem like a "lady". I instead named her "Jazzy"!

[Speaker 2] ah that's cool, who is the other pet that you changed names?

[Speaker 1] Another name I changed was one of my four cats. Again, the pet was at a young age and the name "Bongo" seemed like a better fit than "fluffy." Fortunately, both pets picked up on their names pretty quickly

[Speaker 2] how long did it take for jazzy and fluffy to adjust to their names?

[Speaker 1] Jazzi (the young puppy) took about 3-4 weeks to fully adjust. Bongo, however, seemed to take a month or two. That cat was much more stubborn that that dog!

[Speaker 2] ah probably also because older pets take longer to learn things!

I have 2 dogs, one of them is named Jazzy. I have 4 cats. I named one of the cats Bongo.

My aunt is a teacehr.

I enjoy baking

I love roses.

I own a pair of leather boots.

I adopted a cat named Fred from the shelter.

[Speaker 1] Bongo was fighting with Jazzi because Jazzi ate Bongo's snacks.

[Speaker 2] Is Bongo doing alright after the fight? That doesn't seem to fun.

[Speaker 1] Bongo is actually sulking in the corner of my room. He'll get over it soon once I bring out another snack for him. How's Fred doing?

[Speaker 2] Poor Bongo! I can't help but giggle a little though. Fred is doing great! She is adapting well to her new environment.

[Speaker 1] That's great to hear! I'm so happy for Fred, she was so skinny when you first showed me her picture. My daughter has been begging me to get another cat once she saw Fred's picture.

[Speaker 2] Get your daughter another cat! I bet she would be so surprised. How old is your daughter?

[Speaker 1] She's turning 10 in April! I don't think I can afford another cat with this new addition to the family. I actually have a surprise for you! I went to the doctor today and found out that I'm going to be having another baby girl.

[Speaker 2] That is wonderful! Congratulations! I guess you really don't need another cat with a new addition to the family! I'm so excited!

[Speaker 1] Thank you, I'm excited as well! What about you? Are you thinking about having kids anytime soon? You've been together with your husband for a long time now!

[Speaker 2] Yes! We have been talking about plans on wanting children in our very near future! Maybe one more year. Any tips on how I can go about making this decision? We are financially ready.

[Speaker 1] As long as you two have spoken about it and are both ready, then you'll be fine! I must warn you though, my four kids are a handful. Maybe one or two would be better for you two.
