I diet a lot.
I'm high maintenance.
I love spending money.
I like to tan in tanning beds.

Knitting is my passion.

I am scared of dying.

The county wide bake sale is where I feel most at home.

I love to bake cookies.

I always am cutting food out of what I eat.

I like to have the best of things.

I never seem to be able to save, I'm always broke.

I enjoy not using sunscreen.

I like crafting things.

I live life fully.

I enjoy eating pastries.

The kitchen is one of my favorite places to be.

[Speaker 1] Hi, I tend to do a lot of dieting. How are you?

[Speaker 2] Hello, getting ready to start baking for the bake sale.

[Speaker 1] Is it a charity event? I am always trying to spend money.

[Speaker 2] It is. For the band. Please come, there are healthy options.

[Speaker 1] I will be there! Just a warning, I am very high maintenance.

[Speaker 2] So am I, lol. I am always getting my hair and nails done.

[Speaker 1] Do you like to tan? We can tan in tanning beds some day.

[Speaker 2] I do not. I have a wonderful backyard with a lot of privacy.

[Speaker 1] Lucky. I do not have a yard and live in a multi family home.

[Speaker 2] That's awful. I would not like that at all.

[Speaker 1] It is tough and smelly. 25 people and 3 toilets.

[Speaker 2] That would be awful. You really should move.

[Speaker 1] I can't yet. Need to save money, spend it too quickly.

[Speaker 2] I'd be saving all I could

[Speaker 1] Ya, spend a lot of clothes and health care bills.

[Speaker 2] Clothes are a weakness of mine as well.

I am on a diet.

I like to spend money.

I am high maintenance.

I like to tan.

I live in a multi family home with 25 other people. My multi family home has three toilets.

I have trouble saving money. I spend money on clothing and health care bills.

I am involved in a bake sale.

I am involved in a charity for a band.

I do not like to tan. I have a backyard. I have my own home.

I do not have trouble saving money. I spend money on clothes.

[Speaker 1] How is the bake sale going?

[Speaker 2] It is going great! A lot of moms from school decided to donate their baked goods so we have a lot of different pastries and desserts. What's your favorite dessert?

[Speaker 1] I love an Italian pastery called a cannolli.  My mom always used to go to the italian bakery and buy those for holidays.

[Speaker 2] I have never had it but heard about it from my friend.  I love tiramisu.  Have you heard about those new tanning creams? Or do you still prefer tanning beds?

[Speaker 1] I prefer the beds. I have not found a cream yet that doesn't turn me orange.  And besides, with a tannin bed, I get to have some relax time while I am getting my tan.  When the nex time that you are getting your hair done?

[Speaker 2] I went to get a haircut  and color last week.  My niece recommended a new stylist to me and I really liked her.  I usually just get layers and color it ash brown, but I am pretty picky about how they cut and color my hair.  Plus, she also did this hair treatment and massaged my scalp. It felt amazing.

[Speaker 1] Oh I bet.  I always love the scalp massages.  How long is your hair?

[Speaker 2] It is getting pretty long actually, it reaches my mid back.  I cut my hair short few years ago but now I want to grow it long and healthy. How is your family doing?

[Speaker 1] Everyone is dong well. And everyone is always very busy.  Seems like we are always on the go. This weekend we are getting together for lunch and then shopping.  Are you planting a garden this year?

[Speaker 2] I would love to however I am pretty busy with work. I am thinking of maybe hiring a gardener to help me design the garden and teach me how to take care of plants.  I want trees that don't shed too much.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like fun.  I am sure that a gardener is the best way to go

[Speaker 2] I think so too. I love my backyard and the greenery but it it very hard to maintain.  I like to meditate in my backyard in the mornings.

I am on a diet.

I am high maintenance.

I like to tan.

I love cannolis. I have a mom.

I like to relax in a sunbed. I love scalp massages.

I am busy.

I am involved in a charity for a band.

I love tiramisu.

I am busy with work. I might hire a gardener. I meditate. My garden is hard to maintain.

[Speaker 1] I created some tray bakes for your bake sale, when do you want me to drop them off?

[Speaker 2] Oh that's great thank you so much! Can you drop them off after work today? 6pm?

[Speaker 1] For sure, I'm gonna spend the day tanning in the sun then I'll come straight to you.

[Speaker 2] That sounds perfect, I'll be in the backyard having a drink if you'd like to join me

[Speaker 1] I would love to. I've been stressed these past few weeks and it would be good to let off some steam.

[Speaker 2] I hear that! What has got you down lately?

[Speaker 1] I really want to move out and get my own space but I haven't been doing good with saving money. Being on a diet hasn't made my mood better haha.

[Speaker 2] Ah, I would suggest asking yourself which you want more? Your own space to relax and grow in or more items to temporarily fill the void?

[Speaker 1] The answer would be  my own space, I've been wanting it for years. I have to keep myself disciplined,

[Speaker 2] Yes discipline is very important.. very hard at time, but so important.

[Speaker 1] Thank you very much, we will talk more about this later on. You are a very good friend.

[Speaker 2] Thank you, I value your friendship as well. I will see you later!

I am on a diet.

I am high maintenance.

I like to tan.

I love cannolis. I have a mom.

I am busy. I am looking to relax after a couple of stressful weeks.

I am involved in a charity for a band.

I love tiramisu. I am busy with work. I am having a bake sale.

I drink in my backyard to unwind.

Discipline is important to me.

[Speaker 1] How is your bake sale going?

[Speaker 2] It's going well. I have to bake a couple more dozen cookies. I'm still looking for people to help, too. Have you been able to relax?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I had a great massage and feel great now! What is the bake sale raising money for?

[Speaker 2] The band I have a charity for of course? A massage sounds great.

[Speaker 1] Yes I meant what are the funds going to be spent on? And yeah it was really relaxing, I love to just have some time to myself away from all the madness!

[Speaker 2] They want to record an album and so we we are raising money for studio time and better equipment.  Have you been able to save any more money to move out?

[Speaker 1] Oh that sounds great! Hopefully the bake sale helps you get there. No, as usual I've had to spend all my salary on rent and bills! I think I maybe need to get a second job to help

[Speaker 2] It can be tough. I hope you are able to find something that doesn't stress you out more!

I am on a diet.

I am high maintenance.

I like to tan.

I love cannolis. I have a mom.

I do not live on my own. I am bad at saving money. I have wanted my own space for years. I have to spend all my salary on rent and bills and can't save to move out. I think I need a second job.

I am involved in a charity for a band.

I am high maintenance. I like getting my hair and nails done. I got my hair done last week. I am picky about my hair. I have long hair. I cut my hair short years ago. I want to grow my hair.

I love tiramisu. I am busy with work.

I drink in my backyard to unwind.

Discipline is important to me.

I am having a bake sale. My bake sale is going well. I have to bake a couple dozen more cookies. I'm looking for people to help at my bakesale. The bakesale is raising money for the band I have a charity for.

The band wants to record an album and we are raising money for studio time and better equipment.

[Speaker 1] I think I can stop by the bake sale, but only if there will be cannolis lol!

[Speaker 2] That is great to hear! I appreciate the support. And yes, there are cannolis!

[Speaker 1] That sounds so great! What other stuffs do you have?

[Speaker 2] We have an assortment of sweet, cupcakes, cookies, brownies. But we also have some healthy grab bag options as well! Since you are on a diet, we have a great homemade protein bars!

[Speaker 1] Woah I like how you have so many options here, and I might grab some protein bars too! I think I can also bring them when I go on hiking next weekend to get away from the city.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a great idea! Hiking sounds great! Are you going by yourself?

[Speaker 1] Yeah since I would like some alone time from my multi family. And I think it's also easier to manage alone since I have less to pack and I can just go on any route spontaneously

[Speaker 2] That sounds amazing for you! You will have to snap a few pictures and send them to me when you get back!

[Speaker 1] I definitely will! And also have you hiked before? I would love to hear any suggestions if you know any.

[Speaker 2] I have done some hiking but not enough to give suggestions! I should really try and do it more often! My only advice would be make sure you take in all the nature and enjoy yourself!

[Speaker 1] Thanks! And enjoying yourself is absolutely the most important thing. And hope your bake sale goes well! Would you plan another one if this one goes well?

[Speaker 2] Thanks! I hope it goes well too! And yes, if this one is a success I will likely plan another for a different charity!

[Speaker 1] Hello! How are you today?

[Speaker 2] I'm fine from alabama, enjoying my tacos and brother.

[Speaker 1] That sounds delicious. I am drinking my coffee.

[Speaker 2] Oh yea? I am liking my tacos then.

[Speaker 1] Tacos are yummy. Just not margaritas.

[Speaker 2] Oh darn. How many siblings do you have?

[Speaker 1] I've 2 sisters. They love pink, I hate pink.

[Speaker 2] I happen to have three. And a brother. Go figure.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow. That sounds fun. Do you have a bike?

[Speaker 2] No no bike. In all labor there is profit, so I guess I could get one.

[Speaker 1] Yes, that's a good way to look at it. Get a mountain bike.

[Speaker 2] In the multitude of counselors there is safety. My lovely dog would run behind me.

[Speaker 1] I am not sure I understand, but ok then.

[Speaker 2] What I mean is, I value your opinion. You could have a taco.

[Speaker 1] I'm out of coffee! I need to get more!

[Speaker 2] I think alabama can help you with your fix, where I live.

I live in Alabama. I like tacos. I like my brother.

I have 3 sisters and 1 brother.

I don't have a bike.

I have a dog.

[Speaker 1] Have you gotten a bike yet?

[Speaker 2] No, my brother might let me share his though. It would make it more fun when i walk my dog!

[Speaker 1] How has your dog been?

[Speaker 2] Pretty good, though im a bit mad at him, he ate my last taco i had for lunch!

[Speaker 1] Oh, no! I'd be devastated lol. I don't have a dog, but I have sisters and they love to steal my food. Do your siblings do the same or are they decent?

[Speaker 2] Well i really only like my brother, my 3 sisters can be pretty mean. Seems we share that in common.

[Speaker 1] I don't know what it is about sisters, but they all seem to be pretty mean. My other friends also talk about their mean sisters, so I'm starting to think it's just how every sister is lol. I wish I had a brother. Maybe then our house wouldn't be covered in pink.

[Speaker 2] Tell me about it! Everything is pink or flowers!  I hate pink too!

[Speaker 1] Exactly. It's so annoying. They want to put their style on everything and don't consider what other people like. Why are sisters like that?

[Speaker 2] Who knows, its making me exhausted thinking about it. I should go grab some coffee, i remember you liked coffee, do you have a favorite kind?

[Speaker 1] I love any kind of coffee. For me, it's more about the flavor than waking myself up. So I end up drinking way too much lol. My favorite would probably be cold brew with a splash of vanilla milk. How about you?

[Speaker 2] Oh i usually need it for the energy. Usually a few espressos or an americana

I have 2 sisters. My sisters love pink. I hate pink. My house has a lot of pink items.

I do not have a dog.

I love coffee, cold brew with a splash of vanilla milk is my favorite.

I have 3 sisters and 1 brother.

I have a dog.

My brother has a bike.

I do not like the color pink.

I don't drink coffee for the taste.

[Speaker 1] I went our and got tacos because you spoke about them yesterday and I've been craving them

[Speaker 2] did you get chicken or steak tacos?

[Speaker 1] I actually got fish tacos! They were pretty good. What is your favorite kind of taco?

[Speaker 2] I love steak tacos. I love all sorts of tacos but ones with steak are my favorite

[Speaker 1] I will have to get those next time! I went with my sisters and we decided that we will make it a tradition to go for tacos at least once per month! Do you have any traditions with your siblings?

[Speaker 2] yes my younger brother and i go get bbq whenever he returns from college

[Speaker 1] Oh that sounds like fun! It must be a great bonding experience. What about all your sisters?

[Speaker 2] I do not have any tradtions with my sisters. we do not get along

[Speaker 1] I am sorry to hear that, did something happen between all of you?

[Speaker 2] my sisters lack respect and do not care about the reputation of our family. they are disgraces

[Speaker 1] Wow, that sounds awful! If it is not too intrusive to ask, what have they done?

[Speaker 2] they bring many men into their lives that do nothing but cause problems. they are constantly with new men

I drink coffee. I like tacos. I don't like margaritas. I enjoy fish tacos.

I do not have a dog.

I enjoy fish tacos.

I live in Alabama. I like tacos. I enjoy steak tacos.

I have 3 sisters and 1 younger brother.  I like my brother. I do not get along with my sisters. I believe my sisters actions disgrace my family.

I have a dog.

My brother has a bike.

I do not like the color pink.

[Speaker 1] I went to a new restaurant and tried Thai food for the first time.

[Speaker 2] What dish did you end up trying and did you enjoy it?

[Speaker 1] I played it safe and tried a simple plate of Thai fried rice, it was really good. Have you ever tried Thai food?

[Speaker 2] I have, and I really enjoy it. I had Chicken Pad Thai and coconut sticky rice. I had also tried a Thai Iced Coffee. It was really sweet and smooth.

[Speaker 1] I love coffee so maybe I should try Thai Iced Coffee! Do you siblings enjoy Thai food as well?

[Speaker 2] My brother does, I do not know if my sisters do. I got a bike two days ago so my brother doesn't have to share with me and we rode together to go to a Thai restaurant near us for the first outing.

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry, I forgot that you don't get along with your sisters. I get along with mine but they are much younger than me so it's a little easier.

[Speaker 2] It is ok, having younger sisters would be a little easier. I have often thought about planning a trip to Thailand to do a tour of the country. They actually have villages where they grow coffee on the mountain sides and they do a very slow drip brew. It would be interesting to try the different regions takes on coffee and on all the authentic dishes.

[Speaker 1] That sounds amazing! I would love to go with you if you would be ok with that?

[Speaker 2] It would be nice to have someone to travel with. I know that the bigger cities have actual hotels and the smaller villages families tend to host you in there homes so you get very involved in the culture. It would be a very eye opening experience.

[Speaker 1] I would love that cultural immersion experience. I did that during high school when I traveled to Mexico and stayed with a local family.

[Speaker 2] oh, that sounds amazing. I love learning about new cultures. I would think actually traveling to the places would make it so much better.

I do not have a dog.

I tried Thai food for the first time at a new restaurant recently. I liked the Thai fried rice. I think I should try Thai iced coffee.

I get along with my sisters. My sisters are much younger than me. I think having younger sisters is easier.

I would love a cultural immersion experience. In high school I traveled to Mexico and stayed with a local family.

I have a dog.

My brother has a bike. I got a bike recently so I don't have to share one with my brother. We rode our bikes for the first time to a Thai restaurant.

I do not like the color pink.

I really enjoy Thai food. I have tried Chicken Pad Thai, coconut sticky rice, and Thai iced coffee. My brother enjoys Thai food. I do not know if my sisters like Thai food.

I think having younger sisters would be a little easier. I have thought about planning a trip to tour Thailand.

I love learning about new cultures. I think traveling would make learning about new cultures much better.

[Speaker 1] I finally tried Thai iced coffee! You were right it is so delicious and smooth!

[Speaker 2] I knew you would love it.  I just tried a new Indonesian coffee that might even be better.

[Speaker 1] Thank you so much for putting it on to it, it might be my new favourite drink! And cool, is it very different to Thai coffee? I will have to try that next!

[Speaker 2] It is definitely different..it has more of a nutty earthy flavor.  I think it would pair well with chocolate, another one of my passions.

[Speaker 1] Oh that sounds so good, and yes chocolate is also one of my passions haha. Did you get Indonesian food too? I've never tried it.

[Speaker 2] Yes, but I like Thai food better.  Although, there was an interesting fish dish I tried that reminded me of fish tacos, so you might enjoy it.

[Speaker 1] I see...that does sound nice, what did they do with the fish?

[Speaker 2] They kept the skin on and it was coated with a chili and curry sauce and deep fried...was really interesting but I felt it the next day!

[Speaker 1] Hahaha I can imagine! But yeah I'm not so sure about that one, I have a very low tolerance for spice unfortunately!

[Speaker 2] A little cold milk always helps with the spice, that and cucumber.

[Speaker 1] Oh I've never heard that, I will try that next time I venture onto the spicy side of things. Did you ride to the restaurant and back this time?

[Speaker 2] I rode, but not a bike, I took my skateboard!


I have two grown children who never visit.

I used to be pretty but time hasn't been kind.

I'm a 56 year old woman.

I used to be a painter but now I'm a housekeeper.

I'm a recording engineer and own my own studio.

I live in california but the recording artist market was dead last year.

Whats up I am a 46 year old single dad 46 a kids.

My ex cheated and left me for a lawyer.

I prefer being inside.

My adult kids do not come to see me.

I was so much more attractive when I was younger.

I am under 60 but above 50 and I am female.

I wish I still had my old job.

I have a degree in music engineering.

I'm located on the west coast but the music industry was slow recently.

Hi I am a bachelor just under 50 raising my children.

I'm now single.

My favorite place to be is home.

[Speaker 1] Hey there hows it going

[Speaker 2] I am alright, my like has not been the best recently. How are you?

[Speaker 1] Pretty much the same, things are looking up though, what do you do?

[Speaker 2] I work in the music industry, help artists create amazing albums. What do you do?

[Speaker 1] I used to paint a lot, now I clean houses and paint in my spare time

[Speaker 2] That sounds fun! Where do you live?

[Speaker 1] Southern area of texas, you?

[Speaker 2] California, not my favorite place but that is alright

[Speaker 1] I'd love to live in california, lucky

[Speaker 2] Its a nice place, just not very many job opportunities out here for me anymore

[Speaker 1] It would seem hard, being the popular area it is

[Speaker 2] Very true, just hope the fires in the area do not burn my house down

[Speaker 1] I'm sure! Is it super bad? I've not personally heard from some one there

[Speaker 2] Pretty awful at the moment, super smoky air

[Speaker 1] I am sure that'sn't fun to inhale

[Speaker 2] Not at all, well enough about me, what do you do for fun?

I paint in my spare time. I clean houses.

I work in the music industry. I help artists create albums.

I live in California. I do not like living in California. California is a nice place but has limited job opportunities. California's air is smoky.

[Speaker 1] How is the music industry?

[Speaker 2] It's been such a dream come true. I get to do what I love every day and meet cool people. What makes you wanna move to California?

[Speaker 1] That sounds like an awesome job! Working with musical artists sounds a lot more fun than my job cleaning houses. I've always wanted to visit Los Angeles and visit Hollywood and the Sunset Strip.

[Speaker 2] It's definitely a beautiful city, but it can be frustrating to have to like.. use it as a work space instead of just enjoying it. Seeing the darker underside to things, you know? Do people treat you well in your job?

[Speaker 1] I hear what you're saying. I heard the traffic there is ridiculous! Yeah, my boss is pretty chill and treats me well. Sometimes homeowners like to boss me around and make me feel small but I grin and bear it. So are you working on putting out any killer records?

[Speaker 2] people suck sometimes.i hate when people treat others poorly. i'm sorry to hear that. i AM working with some exciting new artists -- some really cool folk artists who i think have interesting points of view. what's your favorite type of music?

[Speaker 1] I'm not huge on folk, but I love rock and roll and country, which isn't surprising seeing that I live in Texas. Let me know when the albums drop, though, so I can check them out. It might be nice to listen to some easy-going folk music while I work on my paintings.

[Speaker 2] my wife loves country music. she's from kentucky and loves dolly parton. who's your favorite country artist?

[Speaker 1] Dolly Parton is good, but my favorites are Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson. Johnny Cash had that famous concert from the Folsom Prison in California.  Do you live near there?

[Speaker 2] I don't! I liveup near the redwoods but travel to LA a lot for work. The woods are truly beautiful. Have you ever seen the redwoods?

[Speaker 1] No, I haven't ever seen redwood trees, but I know they are enormous and very old!

[Speaker 2] yes. it feels like seeing something holy. i'm so worried california's air will hurt them.

I paint in my spare time.

I like in Southern Texas. I'd like to live in California. I want to visit Los Angeles. I know about redwoods, but have never seen one.

My job is cleaning houses. I like my boss. I don't always like my customers.

I don't listen to a lot of folk music, but would like too when I paint.  My favorite music types are rock and roll and country. I like Dolly Parton's music.  My favorite country music artists are Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson.

I work in the music industry. I work in Los Angeles. I help artists create albums. I love my job.

I live near the redwoods in California. I do not like living in California. California is a nice place but has limited job opportunities. California's air is smoky.

I don't like when people are poorly treated by others.  I think folk artists have interesting points of view.

I travel to Los Angeles for work. I like redwood forests. I am concerned about the pollution in California, and how it will affect the redwoods.

[Speaker 1] My boss told me today that I ought to use my vacation time before it disappears next year, so I thought I might plan a trip California.

[Speaker 2] I think it's absolute garbage that your vacation time just disappears, but if you are going to visit LA try to enjoy the redwood forests

[Speaker 1] i will definitely try that would love to go!

[Speaker 2] They filmed return of the jedi in the redwood park so you know...keep an eye out for stormtroopers

[Speaker 1] oh yeah? i didnt know they filmed star wars there

[Speaker 2] Yep...that was before they just threw everyone in front of a green screen and made poorly designed backgrounds. Those prequel and sequel star wars movies are just trash

[Speaker 1] yeah they were and all the diversity characters lmao

[Speaker 2] But I digress...I think the main thing to remember about visiting Califoria and the Los Angeles region in particular is that the "Hollywood" area is really terrible. Just a bunch of homeless people and characters on the street hustling for money for photos so i'd avoid that

[Speaker 1] ewww yes i have heard that about cities in california

[Speaker 2] I mean for Los Angeles it's really prevalent in the Hollywood area because a lot of tourists don't know any better. San Francisco is just kind of city wide really

[Speaker 1] yeah i have seen san francisco from a distance

[Speaker 2] Portland is really bad too...I mean I guess it's probably most city areas anymore

I paint in my spare time.

I haven't used my vacation time yet but want to go to California. I have been around San Francisco.

I do not like the prequel and sequel star wars movies or the diversity characters. I dislike the amount of homeless people in the Hollywood area.

I enjoy Star Wars. I am not a fan of the prequel and sequel star wars movies.

I do not like the Hollywood either. Homeless people and characters looking for money bother me. I am not a fan of Portland or other major cities due to the amount of homeless people.

[Speaker 1] I have decided to go to San Francisco and visit redwood park before I leave California.

[Speaker 2] I'm sure you'll love it.  Let me know when you are going and maybe we can meet up if I'm not out with a client!

[Speaker 1] I would absolutely love that. Do you know of any particular areas I should visit? I don't want to miss out on all the park has to offer, but I won't have much time.

[Speaker 2] Since I live so close, you could just come and stay with me for a couple days.  We could drive to some amazing trails that are only about 15 minutes from my house.  I'm sure my wife would love to see you and cook some of her famous Kentucky food.

[Speaker 1] This sounds amazing. I would really appreciate that as I don't have a lot to spend on my travels and, as you know, that area is NOT cheap. Could I ride into LA with you some time? I would love to check out a music studio!

[Speaker 2] Sure!  I'll have to check with whoever is recording that day and make sure that they don't mind, but honestly, they don't usually care.  Sometimes the managers get a little fussy, but if it's someone new, they won't even know that you don't work there.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you all can turn me into a folk fan! I imagine fold musicians are very chill. Maybe I can try painting a little while I am there, or would that be distracting. Could produce some cool artwork and I am quiet!

[Speaker 2] That would be so cool!  If you're able to capture the artist, maybe we can get them to buy your work for their album cover!  They love to find new talent, and it can lead into some great opportunities.

[Speaker 1] Oh my goodness. My heart just skipped a beat! That would be incredible. A dream come true, really. I would kill to be able to quit my job and just paint.

[Speaker 2] Hey, maybe you could move out here and I can go spend some time in your home state!  I need to get out of California for a while.

[Speaker 1] It is my dream to move there. In the meantime, you are more than welcome to come to Texas! We can go see some real country concerts! Bring your wife!

[Speaker 2] That would be great.  I'm sure she would love to get away as well.  She's been missing the country, all that fresh air and those hard working people.

I paint in my spare time.

I live in Southern Texas. I'd like to live in California. I want to visit Los Angeles. I know about redwoods, but have never seen one.

I will leave California but visit SF and redwood park first. I wont be visiting the park long. I dont have a lot of time on my trip to california. I would like to see a music studio.

if I had it my way, I would quit my day job to become an artist.

My wife is from Kentucky and her favorite music is country, especially Dolly Parton. my wife cooks famous kentucky food.

I work at a music studio and may be able to bring in a guest. my artist clients love to scout new talent. I would like to spend some time travelling outside my home state of california. my wife and I would love to get away.

[Speaker 1] I have been thinking about when we can plan a trip for you and your wife to come out to visit me as well. I think you guys really need a break

[Speaker 2] That really would be wonderful. My wife and I want to get away so badly.

[Speaker 1] I think Texas would be the perfect getaway. Don't you? We can check out some of the local country music festivals and concerts!

[Speaker 2] That would be wonderful!  And maybe a chance to even discover some new talent I can recommend to my contacts in the music business!

[Speaker 1] Even better! So, when do you think y'all will be able to take time off? I have one week vacation saved up!

[Speaker 2] I'm thinking I might be able to get away in a about a month?  Of course, you'd have to promise do come visit us in California as well!

[Speaker 1] I would love to! So maybe the last week of July? After y'all visit then we can start planning my trip to visit!

[Speaker 2] Excellent!  I'll let my wife know, but I already know she'll be ecstatic!  By the way, I don't think I've ever asked you what kind of art you do?

[Speaker 1] Oh my! I do quite a wide variety. Painting is my favorite but I also enjoy doing mixed media pieces. I am hoping to get involved in ceramics again too. I used to throw in high school!

[Speaker 2] Sounds great!  When you do come here, I'll take you to a few spots I know around Venice Beach. It might inspire you!

[Speaker 1] That sounds AWESOME! I have heard so many great things about Venice Beach. I am looking forward to the visit.

[Speaker 2] And I am excited about coming to Texas!


I enjoy adventure sports.

[Speaker 1] Great exercise. I work out by walking dogs

[Speaker 2] I love dogs, coffee is also something I love!

[Speaker 1] I live on coffee. Love it

[Speaker 2] I grew up in a large family, my father worked in construction, how about you?

[Speaker 1] Small family. Only kid. And it is great

[Speaker 2] I do not drink, and I loathe the color pink, hate it.

[Speaker 1] Me too. Do you like to read? I do.

[Speaker 2] I do, love reading, one of my favorite things to do.

[Speaker 1] Mine too. All different kinds

[Speaker 2] I am not married and no kids, but would like a family one day, you?

[Speaker 1] No kids. No family. Just me

[Speaker 2] Must get lonely, I like people around and noise.

[Speaker 1] It does but I am a medium so I've lots of spirits around me

[Speaker 2] Sounds spooky but fun! Any mean ones?

[Speaker 2] No. I sing country music. No kids yet.

[Speaker 1] I have two kids, and some twins coming up. I love country music.

[Speaker 2] I would like to go on tour with the rascal flats.

[Speaker 1] He wrote life is a highway, right?

[Speaker 2] I thought tom cochran wrote that.

[Speaker 1] Oh, well I do not know much about country, I work as a teller at chase.

[Speaker 2] I used to spend summers at national parks. That is where I learned guitar at age 3

[Speaker 1] I bought a home near a national park recently.

[Speaker 2] We did campfire sing a longs. My parents taught me on a ukulele first

[Speaker 1] That's cool. My parents taught me what an omnivore is. I'm one.

[Speaker 2] I'm trying to be vegan. It is not easy though.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I could never give up meat.

[Speaker 2] What about lab grown meat? Would that make it easy to give up real meat?

[Speaker 1] I've not heard a lot about lab grown meat.

[Speaker 2] It is supposed to be exactly like the real thing. Not sure how that is possible though

I have 2 kids. I am expecting twins soon. I love country music.

I do not know a lot about country music. I work as a teller at Chase Bank.

I bought a home near a national park.

I love to eat meat.

I would really like to go on tour with Rascal Flats.

Tom Cochrane wrote "Life is a Highway" .

I spent summers in my youth at national parks. I learned guitar at age 3. We used to sing a lot of campfire songs. My parents taught me the ukulele before the guitar.

I may trying to eat a vegan diet but it's hard.

[Speaker 1] I'm getting nervous about the twins arriving soon. I am doubling the number of my children in one shot, going from 2 to 4 kids! I'm not sure how we'll be financially with my job at the bank.

[Speaker 2] That's an understandable concern, but it will all work it's self out. Life has a way of figuring itself out most of the time.

[Speaker 1] "LIfe Is A Highway" is a pretty good way to put it, and I hope I can stay on the pavement with this one lol

[Speaker 2] lol, you've got this! And that song is so true no doubt

[Speaker 1] Since you sing and play guitar, you ever think of making an album?

[Speaker 2] I had thought about it, but it's something I enjoy so I don't know if I really wanna try to go the professional route ya know

[Speaker 1] Yeah that's true, fun is fun and when you try to make a  living off of what's fun, it's not as enjoyable anymore

[Speaker 2] Yea, especially if it doesn't take off like you expect or want to.

[Speaker 1] Would you do one for fun? Just to hand out to friends and family? I wouldn't mind hearing you sing your heart out :)

[Speaker 2] oh yeah! of course! I think that would be fun

[Speaker 1] I love classic country music, maybe you could cover "Stand By Your Man" or something along those lines for me

[Speaker 2] I was gonna ask what kind of music you prefer. I like singing country pretty well.

I have 2 kids. I am expecting twins soon. I work as a teller at Chase Bank.

I bought a home near a national park.

I love to eat meat.

I am a fan of classic country music. I do not know a lot about country music.  I like the song "Stand By Your Man".

[Speaker 1] The kids are so hyper today. I don't know how I am going to handle two more.

[Speaker 2] have you considered day care?

[Speaker 1] I'd like to, but it seems so expensive. I'd have to work another job just to pay for it.

[Speaker 2] have you considered asking the national park next to your house if they have any openings?

[Speaker 1] I'd like to. I love visiting there whenever I can. Do you have any plans to travel to national parks this year?

[Speaker 2] yes i am going to try and visit yellowstone this summer

[Speaker 1] I love Yellowstone. It can get busy sometimes, though. Especially on weekends and holidays. Have you been before?

[Speaker 2] no i have never been but a roommate of mine went and he loved it

[Speaker 1] It is very pretty. Do you plan on camping, or are you going to stay at a hotel or lodge?

[Speaker 2] probably a lodge. I am not an experienced camper so i will save that for another time

[Speaker 1] That's a good idea. Have you been out singing lately? Where do you perform?

[Speaker 2] i perform at the local bowling alley. they let me bowl for free if i sing

I bought a home near a national park.

I love to eat meat.

I can not afford day care. My job is not high paying.

I live next to a national park. I love visiting it. I love Yellowstone.

I am a female. I do not have children. I sing country music. I perform at the local bowling alley.

I like going to national parks and want to go to Yellowstone. I have never been to Yellowstone before. I am not an experienced camper.

[Speaker 1] The national park by my house is hiring. I just applied.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a great opportunity! Do you know any specifics about the job yet?

[Speaker 1] not yet. it's for a park ranger though. it sounds fun.

[Speaker 2] I always thought that would be a cool job, too.  Park Rangers really get to experience so much, and learn more than people realize! I bet you kids would love it, too.

[Speaker 1] we already spend so much time at the park, might as well get paid to be there! lol

[Speaker 2] That would really be a plus! I wonder if there are programs that kids would be able to get into, with you as a Park Ranger.  Do you know?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure. definitely something to look into though.

[Speaker 2] It would really be encouraging for both the parent and child.  I would really be surprised if there isn't something set up.  I know some of the parks have summer classes, but not sure if there's anything geared toward long-term.

[Speaker 1] do you think you'll ever visit yellowstone?

[Speaker 2] Oh, definitely!  It is a "must" on my wish list.  I love the parks of the west and north-west.  Do you live near Yellowstone?

[Speaker 1] it's not too far from me.

[Speaker 2] You are so fortunate!  I'm in the mid-west, so it would be a bit of a trip for me.  I really prefer the woods and climate of the north/west, so hope to move that direction eventually.  Have you visited many national parks?

I bought a home near a national park yellowstone.

I love to eat meat.

I just applied for a job at a nearby national park. the job I applied for is a park ranger job.  we spend a lot of time at the parks.

I live in the midwest. I hope to move to the north/west eventually to enjoy the climate.

[Speaker 1] how is your vegan diet going? I was meaning to ask what kinds of recipes you have been experimenting with. I need some cooking inspiration!

[Speaker 2] It's going great! Mostly Asian inspired recipes. It's a great way to lower your odds of heart disease and diabetes and dementia etc.

[Speaker 1] Absolutely!  I have been thinking of having a couple of vegan nights at home for me and the family.  I'm not sure what to cook, however.  Any tips?

[Speaker 2] All you gotta do is put some olive oil in the pan, chop up some veggies of your choice, and throw them in there. Then add some adobo and herbs de province. Cook them until they get a little burnt and you'll be good!

[Speaker 1] That sounds easy enough, and also delicious.  My entire family loves meat, so I thought if we could mix it up a bit each week, it might help.  So you really should try and visit Yellowstone.  It is just so beautiful!

[Speaker 2] I've heard that! I heard it also smells really good, which is a weird thing to want to experience. California in general is so awesome to me.

[Speaker 1] Yes, its a pretty state.  So where do you live now?

[Speaker 2] North Dakota! It's cooler than people think.

[Speaker 1] I've heard that is also a beautiful state, but the winters can get harsh from what I hear.

[Speaker 2] Yes, absolutely. It's better to just hunker down inside when that happens.

[Speaker 1] So how much snow do you get?

[Speaker 2] A few feet at a time. Some people use fancy machines to deal with it. I prefer a good old fashioned shovel to get the exercise and to generate body heat.


I'm social with others.

I help out for free whenever I can.

I donate my time to helping those who are less fortunate.

I got to the gym all the time.

I loved working out with children.

I don't know what it is like to have money.

I am a history buff.

I go to mcdonalds often.

[Speaker 1] Hi, I like to keep fit and work out 5 times a week

[Speaker 2] I used to teach gym retired now, grew up poor

[Speaker 1] In my spare time I work for free in a homeless shelter

[Speaker 2] Just watched a war documentary while eating a cheese burger

[Speaker 1] That is in the past you can be rich today, I love people and hang out

[Speaker 2] Yeah I agree, rich in heart

[Speaker 1] Do not get fat on burgers, I love to do volunteer work

[Speaker 2] True bad for you, good stuff.

[Speaker 1] I love cheese burgers with chips and soda yum.

[Speaker 2] Yeah even with the fat on them?

[Speaker 1] Do you help the homeless? They love cheese burgers.

[Speaker 2] In real life, I'm a music professor and I do help the homeless

[Speaker 1] They love the fats, not all homeless people are fat.

[Speaker 2] Oh oh well hmmm I guess okay?

[Speaker 1] What is your real life? This is not your real life?

[Speaker 2] I enjoy doing amazon work when I am laying around


I've a broken arm.
I am always wearing a hat.
I am a skateboarder.
My favourite skater is rob dryden.
My friends are all skateboarders.

I helped design the game starcraft.

I've an allergy to water.

I am a recluse.

I'm a famous twitch streamer.

I am working on a building a robot to be my body double.

I've a cast because I shattered my femur.

I spend my time creating artificial intelligence to be my doppelganger.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you? Where abouts are you?

[Speaker 2] I'm in chicago. Where are you?

[Speaker 1] In scotland. Is chicago as cold and wet as it is here?

[Speaker 2] Yes, but I am allergic to water. This is very unfortunate.

[Speaker 1] It is. How do you keep clean?

[Speaker 2] I don't go outside much. I stay clean this way.

[Speaker 1] I want to go outside. I managed to break my arm skateboarding so I m stuck indoors.

[Speaker 2] I only stream to my 100, 000 subscribers on twitch. I do not play real sports

[Speaker 1] 100k is very impressive. How long did it take to get that many?

[Speaker 2] Since I helped make starcraft, my name was already out there. 6 months.

[Speaker 1] Made as in developed? That s very cool.

[Speaker 2] Designed, yes. Now I'm making a robot to be a body double of myself.

[Speaker 1] A robot that looks like you?

[Speaker 2] Indeed, but it is still a prototype

[Speaker 1] Good luck with that. What games do you stream?

[Speaker 2] Usually older generation, like ps1 and super nintendo. Do you watch twitch?

I live in Scotland.

I live in Chicago. I am allergic to water.

I do not go outside very often.

I have 100,000 subscribers on Twitch. I play virtual sports. I do not play real sports.

I am a game designer. I helped to design Starcraft. I am pretty famous. It took me 6 months to get 100,000 subscribers.

I am designing a robot that will be a body double of me. The robot is still a prototype.

[Speaker 1] How is the robot design going? Is your prototype ready to go to market?

[Speaker 2] Not yet, but I think it will be in the next couple of months. How is your arm healing? It must be boring to be indoors so much!

[Speaker 1] It's healing quite alright. Yeah so boring I must say

[Speaker 2] Are you still in much pain? When will you be able to go back to skateboarding?

[Speaker 1] Not so much pain as the first day. The Doctor said I should be all healed in a week or two. Steamed any game recently?

[Speaker 2] Mostly Super Nintendo stuff. I've been on a Nintendo kick lately. What is your favorite older Nintendo game? Mine are Super Mario Bros. and Tetris.

[Speaker 1] Just super Mario for me

[Speaker 2] That one is great. My favorite is the first one but Super Mario Bros. 2 was a good one too. You should try Tetris, it's good for passing time.

[Speaker 1] I've played Tetris, I just find it boring after a while

[Speaker 2] That's true, it can be quite a lot of the same thing. So how has the weather been in Scotland? I was thinking about coming to Scotland but with my water allergy I should come in a dry season.

[Speaker 1] The weather is pretty much okay. Sorry about your allergies. I would sure love to show you some new skateboarding skills I learnt

[Speaker 2] Oh, I'd love to learn! Maybe there is an indoor park there? What new skills have you learnt?

I live in Scotland.

My favorite older Nintendo game is Super Mario.

I've played Tetris. I think Tetris is boring after a while.

I do not go outside very often.

I am designing a robot that will be a body double of me. The robot is still a prototype  that will be ready in the next couple of months.

I like to steam older video games like PS1 and Super Nintendo. I like to play video games a lot.  My favorite older Nintendo games are Super Mario Bros. and Tetris. I like Super Mario Bros 1 better than Super Mario Bros 2.

I want to go to Scotland.

I'd love to learn how to skateboard.

[Speaker 1] Ouch, I fell off my skateboard again and broke my other arm. Are you sure you want to learn skateboarding?

[Speaker 2] On second thought.... maybe not! I don't care for real physical sports so.. How will you ever manage to brush your teeth without both arms to use?

[Speaker 1] Stick to the video games! That is a great question...I may have to hire a family member to do it. That will be the easiest part...I don't know how to use the washroom!

[Speaker 2] How are you even typing to me right now!? Do you use your nose and the voice-to-text app? You poor thing!

[Speaker 1] Yes, I am using voice-to-text! I wish I could ask my app to feed me dinner!

[Speaker 2] Oh that would be real nice, wouldn't it? We aren't too far away from a future with autonomous kitchens!

[Speaker 1] Yes, that actually sounds like something right up your alley to help develop?

[Speaker 2] Yes! The technology already exists though, which you can see in self-cooking-serving vending machines in some countries

[Speaker 1] Oh yes, I saw one of those before, it made pizza! It actually tasted pretty decent.

[Speaker 2] Yeah and they are more accurate and consistent than when people make the food. Technology is a wonderful thing.

[Speaker 1] It makes me a little worried that they are going to take all of our jobs. What do you think?

[Speaker 2] Well there are some jobs that would become more efficient and some jobs that just couldn't really be replaced and need humans, for whatever reasons

I live in Scotland.

I like pizza.

I am hesitant about advancing technology.

I do not go outside very often.

I want to go to Scotland.

[Speaker 1] Do you think that your job of designing robots could one day be performed by a robot?

[Speaker 2] In some ways I hope so because it would be really cool to design something that would be so advanced, but it is also a little terrifying.

[Speaker 1] Yea it will be crazy when robots start getting that advanced. Which will happen one day I'm sure! In some ways, robots doing human jobs might give us more free time. But I'm sure companies will find other ways of keeping us busy!

[Speaker 2] Robots already do some of what we used to think of as human jobs. I hope maybe that someday we can all spend more time on the things we enjoy rather than worry about having to make money. Is your arm feeling any better?

[Speaker 1] I totally agree, if we were able to live a life which wasn't entirely focused on money it would amazing. My arm is gradually getting better thanks, I'm used to not being able to use it now! Occasionally I'll accidentally knock it and it'll hurt. Have you ever broken a bone?

[Speaker 2] No. I prefer to keep most of my adventuring to video games so I've been pretty lucky so far.  I have sprained my ankle before and that was painful.

[Speaker 1] I've done that before too; a sprained ankle is horrible! It makes you feel like you can't put any weight on it at all so you have to kind of hop-shuffle around! I'm looking forward to getting back to skateboarding but I won't try the same stunt again (which led me to breaking my arm!)

[Speaker 2] Do you get hurt a lot when you skateboard?

[Speaker 1] I have had a lot of bruises. But the worst injury apart from my broken arm was when I landed on my face. I had a helmet on but I still scraped up my face. Remind me what virtual sports you play?

[Speaker 2] I play a little soccer, and I've played some skateboarding games. I have the Tony Hawk games and i'd like to get a virtual controller to use with it.

[Speaker 1] Ah man the Tony Hawk game is awesome, I've tried it at a friends house before. I didn't know you could get a virtual controller!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, the older games have a board, but there are some experimental protypes out too.

I live in Scotland.

I like going outdoors. I broke my arm skateboarding, so I have to stay indoors. My arm doesn't hurt as much as it did. I have broken my arm before. I am using voice-to-text. My arm is gradually getting better. I'm used to not being able to use my arm now. Sometimes I hurt my arm by accidentally knocking it.

I like pizza.

I have sprained my ankle before. I broke my arm doing a skateboarding stunt. I won't try doing the stunt again. I get a lot of bruises when I skateboard. My worst injury was when I landed on my face and scraped it. I wear a helmet.

I played the Tony Hawk game at a friends house. I think the Tony Hawk game is awesome. I did not know the Tony Hawk game had a virtual controller.

I do not go outside very often.

I want to go to Scotland.

I'd love to learn how to skateboard. I don't care for physical sports. I prefer video games over real adventuring. I have never broken a bone. I have sprained my ankle and it was painful.

I play virtual soccer and virtual skateboarding games. I want to get a virtual controller to with the Tony Hawk game that I have.

[Speaker 1] How long have you worked in technology for?

[Speaker 2] I started messing with technology before I finished high school. But I started getting serious about it in college.

[Speaker 1] How do you jugle streaming and working like that? I wish I could have a following like you.

[Speaker 2] Like I said, I spend a lot of time indoors. LoL. I have a lot of energy to burn, but it is more mental energy than physical energy.

[Speaker 1] It is safer than my hobbies haha. You're not interested in taking up skateboarding right?

[Speaker 2] Not my kind of thing. But I may teach my body double robot to skateboard. Or, actually, see if it can learn that kind of thing.

[Speaker 1] Don't put your double through hardships you wouldn't take on. Isn't that like abuse or something?

[Speaker 2] If it were a person it would be. It is just a robot. It doesn't have any emotion circuits or anything even close to human intelligence. I'm mostly interested in  making robots that can mimic human movement.

[Speaker 1] How do I know I'm not taking to your double right now? Maybe you're making the real you skate. This is getting confusing now. Haha

[Speaker 2] LoL. You have a great imagination.

[Speaker 1] We're going to have to game together soon. I can tell if you're you or not.

[Speaker 2] We should game together soon. Then I can defend myself. Haha

[Speaker 2] After rowing and running on the treadmill, I'm pretty hungry. Do you work out?

[Speaker 1] Yes after I cook all my chef food

[Speaker 2] I enjoy a great meal, but usually just eat when there is nothing else to do. Haha

[Speaker 1] Yeah that is cool, what is your favorite color?

[Speaker 2] Green, and it shows with my bright green crew cut! What is yours?

[Speaker 1] I love red, reminds me of summer time.

[Speaker 2] Nice. Is summer your favorite season? My two huskies aren't a fan of the heat.

[Speaker 1] Yes I really like waffles too

[Speaker 2] Waffles are my main reason for hitting the gym! You are a person a varied interests!

[Speaker 1] I like to keep it interesting

[Speaker 2] That is great! What are your hobbies other than cooking?

[Speaker 2] No not really.. haha! It is a lot set up and rules you have to learn. Mario is chill. I love the classic games. My husband has been playing way too much War of Worldcraft lately though.

[Speaker 1] Oh well, I guess I'd need someone who knows how to play help me learn. My kids are starting to get into video games and we are starting with the classics. What's your favorite board game?

[Speaker 2] Risk, even though it takes a whole day to play! My husband and I used to play all the time with different groups of friends. Lately he is so distant...

[Speaker 1] Oh I am sorry to hear that. I love Risk but the kids are more monopoly fans. Maybe you and your husband just need to start doing activities together again and it'll help bring you guys closer.

[Speaker 2] Yeah maybe we can get both of our families together and have a game night! We could even play a shorter risk campaign!

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a fun plan! All the kids would enjoy that. Maybe sometime next week.

[Speaker 2] Yeah that sounds great! I would also be into playing monopoly as well! I will make a classic 1950's meat jello for the occasion.

I have kids and play video games.

I exercise when I have time.

I have never played DnD. I like Mario. I Like Nintendo games. I love risk. My kids love Monopoly.

I am 45. I have a husband.

I like board games. I love classic games. my favorite board game is risk.

[Speaker 1] I was just playing some mario kart to unwind

[Speaker 2] Awesome! Me and the rugrats were just playing COD whilst I make supper.

[Speaker 1] Oh...what are you eating? I can recommend some wonderful keto food.

[Speaker 2] Tonight it is vegan meatloaf with cheesy potatoes and sour dough garlic bread

[Speaker 1] That's cool too. I can almost smell the cheese and starch mix together! (But I haven't tried the sourdough-garlic combination)

[Speaker 2] They are roasted potatoes with a topping of fresh parm, asiago and dill sauce.  You are missing out if you have not had sour dough garlic bread. It is divine.

[Speaker 1] You played Risk before? I think I finally got round to invading Australia yesterday, a hour and a half in.

[Speaker 2] It is my favorite board game. Did you still want to get everyone together over the weekend ?  Oh and congrats on your down under invaision lol.

[Speaker 1] Sure! Seeing as you like the Rolling Stones as much as I do, what music would you like?

[Speaker 2] My husband is a stuck in the 80s DJ, so we have ALOT of records. You can bring anything you think would go with fruit platters and vegan dognuts.

[Speaker 1] Oh yes...I'll pop by with my hummus and falafel plate. Should we play mario kart over the weekend as well? I've been practicing as Donkey Kong.

[Speaker 2] That sounds soo good!  Yes please do bring mario kart over. The kids will have a blast.

I sold my vintage car to buy a house.

I eat healthy food.

I have kids and play video games.

I exercise when I have time.

I have never played DnD. I Like Nintendo games. I love risk. My kids love Monopoly. I play mario kart to unwind. I play the game Risk. I have been practicing mario kart as Donkey Kong.

I have wonderful keto food recommendations. I haven't had sourdough garlic bread.

I am 45. I have a husband.

I like board games. I love classic games. my favorite board game is Risk. Me and my kids play Call of Duty.

I love sourdough garlic bread.

My husband is stuck in the 80s so we have a lot of records.

[Speaker 1] I just tried sourdough garlic bread at your suggestion! So delicious.

[Speaker 2] Ah nice choice! Did you make it yourself?

[Speaker 1] It was bought this time, but only because I've heard that sourdough bread takes forever to make from scratch. I think you have to make a sourdough "starter" thing which develops over a few days? I have no idea, I'm not much of a baker haha! Do you do much baking at all?

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah, you're right - that yeast thing that you make and keep in a jar?! Who's got time for all that? I'm don't bake loads of stuff, but I do love baking doughnuts!

[Speaker 1] Yea I think you have to put in a jar and just watch it grow! Ooo I love doughnuts. Am I right in thinking they have to be deep fried?

[Speaker 2] Me too! They're definitely my guilty pleasure! You can bake them, but they really are so delicious when fried. So tell me about your first sourdough garlic bread experience! Did you have anything with it?

[Speaker 1] Doughnuts are definitely one of my guilty pleasures too! In terms of the sourdough garlic bread, I managed to get it fresh from a local bakery. And then a friend and I shared a pizza and salad alongside it. I really love garlic so it was great that the garlic flavor was really strong. What do you usually eat it with?

[Speaker 2] It's great with a soup or I also love it alongside pizza. I need to find a decent bakery stat! It's always best when fresh out of the baker's oven! Have you got some good weekend plans?

[Speaker 1] Ah yes alongside soup is a great idea, especially in autumn or winter. This weekend I'm going to see some friends for a BBQ on Saturday and then nothing at all planned for Sunday. It will be my first BBQ of the year, and even though I love healthy food I also enjoy occasional burgers and things. What about you, do you have any weekend plans?

[Speaker 2] Of course, everyone needs cheeky treat every now and then. Oh that'll be so nice, enjoy! This weekend I'm hoping to play some RPGs with my kids in the park, or if it rains there's always video games!

[Speaker 1] That sounds like fun. And yea video games are always a great back up plan. It's great that your kids enjoy playing video games with you too, it's a nice thing to do together. The only video game that the kids will let me play with them is Mario Kart, and they are far too good at it!

[Speaker 2] I love Mario Kart! And yes, I'm afraid my kids are starting to get better than me at the video games! I can't wait for the first BBQ of the summer. Maybe we'll have to get one going this weekend, as you've inspired me!

[Speaker 2] I would love to see you play

[Speaker 1] Ok lets play a game, you can meet me on moon?

[Speaker 2] No, I'm unable to travel to the moon. I have to work

[Speaker 1] Impressive. I am a professional wrestler.

[Speaker 2] Yea very much I know I am able to provide good quality car

[Speaker 1] You must be very good at math

[Speaker 2] Yea I have always liked it a lot. What is your favorite food?


I'm a stunt double as my second job.

I only eat kosher.

I never broke a bone in my body ever in my life.

I read twenty books a year.

I was raised on a horse farm.

My family has raised horses for a generations.

I dream of moving to the city.

I want to be a lawyer.

My part time gig has me doing some pretty brave things.

I have special dietary restrictions.

I have not fractured a core part of myself.

I've been know to finish almost two dozen novels in a twelve month period.

I spent my childhood around barn animals.

We have had thoroughbreds for ages.

I want to live in an urban area.

I have interest in the legal system.

[Speaker 1] Hi. How is it going? Tell me about yourself

[Speaker 2] Hello. Well, I love horses.

[Speaker 1] Wow. I've never been around a horse before.

[Speaker 2] What do you like to do?

[Speaker 1] I am an avid reader? What do you do for work?

[Speaker 2] I am working on going into law.

[Speaker 1] Smarty pants. I am a martial arts trainer, but I stunt double for extra money.

[Speaker 2] That sounds really interesting. How is that business?

[Speaker 1] It can be dangerous, but I have never broken any bones. It is really exciting

[Speaker 2] That is great. I would figure that you would have a lot of injuries.

[Speaker 1] I think it has to do with my diet and exercise regime. Keeps my bones strong

[Speaker 2] I bet that does work.

[Speaker 1] What do you do for fun?

[Speaker 2] I like to ride horses and be on a farm.

[Speaker 1] I recall the horses. I guess that is a stress reliever with law school

[Speaker 2] It sure is. I would like to see more of the city though.

I read.

I have a diet and exercise plan.

I am studying to be a lawyer.
I love horses. I ride horses.

[Speaker 1] How are the studies or horses, whichever one you're doing.

[Speaker 2] Studying is rough, but the horses are great. How's the training going?

[Speaker 1] It's pretty tough!  Following my diet is challenging!  I'm sure it's just has hard as your studying plan!  Just a different kind of hard!  It will pay off in the end for both of us though!

[Speaker 2] Hard work always pays off. Does your martial arts training come into play as a stunt double?

[Speaker 1] It does!  So much of the martial arts crosses over into being a stunt double.  And having the martial arts background on my resume helps me land better jobs!  What kind of lawyer do you want to be when you graduate?

[Speaker 2] Family/divorce lawyer. So many times growing up seeing people get taken to the cleaners when they didn't deserve it. Not having enough visitation time with their kids makes me want to go the extra mile so they get what they deserve.

[Speaker 1] I bet that will be a very rewarding career to be able to help people in that situation!  How much longer do you have until you can take your final exams?

[Speaker 2] I have 2 months left be fore finals and then the bar. After that I have an internship through a local office. As a stunt double what's the worst accident you've had?

[Speaker 1] Luckily I haven't had anything too serious.  Just some scrapes and bumps and bruises!  I've seen some people get pretty hurt though and then their career is over for good.  I think that's where my martial arts training comes in handy because I know a lot of tricks for minimizing impact.  So do you get paid for your internship or do you not start getting paid until you're done with that?

[Speaker 2] Thats good, i've seen YouTube videos of martial arts trainers that would punch and kick trees or hard surfaces to strengthen their bones. Some don't but I was fortunate enough to find this one that does. It's not like full time job pay scale but better than working for free.

[Speaker 1] At least it's something!  I'm sure those student loan lenders will be hunting you down as soon as you graduate wanting paid back!!  I'd imagine all those years of college have not been cheap!  That's one thing that led me into a career path that didn't involve years of schooling!

[Speaker 2] Yes schooling is never cheap and it was a hard decision to apply for school loans. I know in the long run i will make more than enough to pay it off, but it will be rough times for a bit. Ramen noodle rough times. Speaking of food what are you restricted to with your diet?

I read.

I have a diet and exercise plan.

Having the martial arts background on my resume helps me land better jobs. I know a lot of tricks for minimizing impact of marital arts training.

I am studying to be a lawyer. I want to be family/divorce lawyer.

I love horses. I ride horses.

I have 2 months left be fore finals and then the bar. After that I have an internship through a local office. I will be paid. It's not like full time job pay scale but better than working for free.

I've seen YouTube videos of martial arts trainers .

I have a student loan. It was a hard decision to apply for school loans.

[Speaker 1] When do you plan open your own lawyer office?

[Speaker 2] Oh I still need quite a bit of time. I'm thinking after I pay my student loans and get some experience through internships.

[Speaker 1] That makes sense. How long will the internship last?

[Speaker 2] Seven months, but we will see how it goes. What did you learn in school?

[Speaker 1] Not a whole lot. I went into martial arts pretty soon after high school and most of what I learned in high school has not been very useful in my career. If I went to college, I probably would have studied physical therapy or something like that.

[Speaker 2] That's amazing. Do you enjoy working as a stunt double?

[Speaker 1] It's a lot of fun! I've had the chance to meet a lot of really cool and interesting people. Some actors are a lot more chill than others. I met Ryan Reynolds on the set of Deadpool and he was a really awesome guy

[Speaker 2] I could imagine. You're very lucky to have met Ryan Reynolds, that would be a dream come true for me.

[Speaker 1] It was quite honestly one of the best experiences in my life. I was only on set for one day but still amazing. I'm sure you'll end up with some crazy work stories from doing family/divorce law!

[Speaker 2] Haha yes I actually look forward to that. I will be sure to tell you if I do.

[Speaker 1] I look forward to it! Are you ready to be done with school? These last two months must be brutal.

[Speaker 2] Very much so, but very worth it and very important. But I am very excited for the next chapter of my life.

I read.

I have a diet and exercise plan.

I love horses. I ride horses.

I have 2 months left be fore finals and then the bar. After that I have an internship through a local office for seven months. I will be paid. It's not like full time job pay scale but better than working for free. I am working in family/divorce law. I have 2 long months of school left but am looking forward to moving on to the next part of my life.

[Speaker 1] I just got contacted about working as a stunt double for the newest Deadpool movie!

[Speaker 2] Congratulations!! I really enjoyed those films. They are funny as anything. Does a lot of planning go into doing stunt work?

[Speaker 1] Ehhh...there is a lot, what with bureaucracy and burn gel and whatnot, but you get a bit of a pattern to it after a while.

[Speaker 2] Your martial arts training should definitely help with the stunt work. It's so cool that you get to meet Ryan Reynolds. Are you a fan of his other movies?

[Speaker 1] Yeah. Anything with National Lampoon in it is solid. The first Deadpool kept it real, which is more than I can say of modern churnouts like Wonder Woman.

[Speaker 2] The Marvel cinematic universe definitely is better than what DC has churned out. Justice League was a disaster and I actually fell asleep watching it.

[Speaker 1] Quite true. Any similarities between the films and the legal world? I hear you're graduating soon. Ready for office politics and the like?

[Speaker 2] Yes Im ready to dive into a storm of red tape and regulations. The only similarities is that both industries can be cutthroat at times.

[Speaker 1] Especially since you're going into divorce law? Guess the confidentiality agreements will lose you sleep.

[Speaker 2] I see it not as an ending but as a way for two people to continue on their life without legal complications hindering their personal growth and enjoyment.

[Speaker 1] Being philosophical, I see! Well I wonder how life would have ended up differently as well, had I gone for a physical therapy degree at uni. I guess my body would have had a lot of personal growth.

[Speaker 2] Either way, Im sure you would have been a success. Now you are going to be in a major motion picture. Big things are coming your way.

I read.

I train martial arts.  I work as a stunt double. I have met a lot of actors including Ryan Reynolds. I got contacted to work as a stunt double in the Deadpool movie.

I have a diet and exercise plan.

Expensive education led me into a career path that didn't involve years of schooling. I graduated high school but never went to college. I went into martial arts after high school. I would have liked to have studied physical therapy if I went to college. I did not get a physical therapy degree at university.

I love horses. I ride horses.

I have been to college and plan on opening my own lawyer office. I have accumulated student loans. I am graduating soon.

I enjoyed the Deadpool movies. I did not like Justice League. I prefer Marvel to DC.

[Speaker 1] Have you been looking for a job in the legal field yet?

[Speaker 2] I have but it seems like more than anything I need connections to seriously be considered. I'm tired of being laughed at for not having years of experience.

[Speaker 1] Well I'm sure that the internship will help. I know the money isn't great, but hopefully the connections you make there will pay off!

[Speaker 2] Good point. I have to put in the grunt work now so I can have more opportunities in the future. Man, I really need to do something to get rid of all this stress.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, you've got to be majorly stressed out with the bar coming up!! Do you have time to ride at all when you aren't studying?

[Speaker 2] Nope, I'm pretty much stuck in the house. I wish I could go for a trail ride right now. I'm so ready to be established in my career already.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I remember that feeling. I had to do A LOT of grunt work to get where I am!

[Speaker 2] That makes sense. How much free time do you have these days?

[Speaker 1] Right now, a lot! I'm between films. Work is relentless when I'm on a job so I try to take a few weeks off in between.

[Speaker 2] Haha I guess I just have to suck it up and push through. I can't exactly complain once I'm a professional. Do you like your career?

[Speaker 1] I love it! I think it would have been cool to be able to go to school and become a PT, but I really love my work. You can't beat the thrill of stunts even if there are boring parts.

[Speaker 2] I see. I suppose I'll have to carefully watch the films you've been in  to see you in action!


I've telekinesis.

I wish I still had my old job.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Eh nothing much just a woman who is 56 years of age trying to have fun.

[Speaker 1] A woman having too much fun is leading to my divorce

[Speaker 2] Women can hurt you easily especially the pretty ones, like I was back in the day.

[Speaker 1] Her problem is she spends too much money

[Speaker 2] I used to spend money too when I was a painter, but now I just do housekeeping.

[Speaker 1] Are you retired now?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm going insane, I keep fantasizing about controlling the world.

[Speaker 1] I wish I could retire I hate my job

[Speaker 2] You should, if you got the money.

[Speaker 1] I make decent cash as a salesman

[Speaker 2] Yeah I bet you do, I used to make a lot selling my paintings

[Speaker 1] I sell used cars

[Speaker 2] I need a car actually, do you have one for sale?

[Speaker 1] I've several used ones for sale

[Speaker 1] Maybe it is! I'm a renegade

[Speaker 2] Oh, I see. What state are you in?

[Speaker 1] I'm in florida learning to cook

[Speaker 1] You guys are going to have so much fun getting settled in.  HAve you done much shopping for the place yet?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I couldn't resist, haha! I have been stocking up a little bit, I hope he doesn't mind too much new stuff appearing!

[Speaker 1] Well if he's anything like my boyfriend you'll be glad you stocked up.  When we moved in together he brought only his couch from college!

[Speaker 2] Haha, they can be so funny can't they! How long have you guys been living together now?

[Speaker 1] We moved in together just about a year ago.  I moved in with him which was about 3 hours away.  That's why I no longer teach gym.  I spend most of my days just grilling and volunteering.  It's been fun but I definitely miss the kids; I

[Speaker 2] Have you looked for gym teaching jobs where you are now? Is it something you'd like to do again?

[Speaker 1] I think I'd like to look for something just part-time; maybe even if I could find a preschool or something to take up just a small part of the day.  Plus that always ended up being my own exercise for the day, haha! Grilling and eating don't make for a very active lifestyle.  What's your favorite subject to teach the kids?

[Speaker 2] That sounds good, I think you should 100% have a look! I like teaching science, especially nature subjects

[Speaker 1] Ah I bet the kids love those subjects too, I always remember loving getting outside for lessons like that.  Do you teach them Spanish and French too?

[Speaker 2] Yeah they do, I think that's also part of the reason I enjoy it, it's great to see them really engage with a subject! We do a little bit of Spanish and French, not a lot in the age group I teach, just the very basics to get them started.

I like to grill.

I didn't have money growing up.

I volunteer at a soup kitchen.

I was a gym teacher. I spend most of my days just grilling and volunteering. I miss the kids.

My favorite color is black.

I have a boyfriend too. We moved in together just about a year ago.

My favorite colors are red and silver.

I enjoy it. We do a little bit of Spanish and French.

[Speaker 1] Would you like to come with your boyfriend to our place for a barbeque?

[Speaker 2] yes absolutely. should i bring any food or drinks?

[Speaker 1] That sounds good. Would you mind bringing a dessert? I will take care of the drinks. What do you like?

[Speaker 2] yes i can bring a dessert. i would like a beer if you are talking about drinks

[Speaker 1] Sounds good, I have some really good IPA's from a brewery I visited on a trip. How is work going?

[Speaker 2] its going well. i enjoy teaching about science

[Speaker 1] How are your students this year? Have you had any issues?

My favorite colors are red and silver.

I like teaching science, especially nature subjects. Most of my students are great but there is one that is a troublemaker.

[Speaker 1] What's the best place in Philly for a cheesesteak?

[Speaker 2] Basically anywhere because they are known for it

[Speaker 1] Um if I grill a regular steak in Philly and add cheese, will it automatically become a Philly cheesesteak? haha

[Speaker 2] No, because there is more to the philly cheese steak than just grilling steak and adding cheese on it. How do you like working for the soup kitchen?

[Speaker 1] Yah it's nice, since I'm not working at the moment feels nice to have something to do that's useful to others.

[Speaker 2] What do you think is the most rewarding thing to come from working there? Why are you not working right now?

[Speaker 1] My last job was too stressful, so I'm just looking for something PT, maybe at a bar since I love beer lol

[Speaker 2] Hey you can always try getting your bartending license and make great money that way with all the tips you can make

[Speaker 1] That's true! How about you? Still enjoying your teaching job?

[Speaker 2] Yeah i do. It is really nice getting to work with children. It is also nice because school just got out today so i can enjoy the summer time lol

[Speaker 1] Sounds like that troublemaker from before has stopped being annoying, and either way horray for summer!

[Speaker 1] So do you have any plans for the summer holidays while school is out?

[Speaker 2] I'm thinking of visiting cities in New England. Maybe I'll travel with my boyfriend to New Hampshire or something like that. How about yourself?

[Speaker 1] That would be great! Are you a fan of seafood? Youd have to get some of those famous lobster rolls and Chowder! I plan to relax and enjoy the sun as much as possible

[Speaker 2] I am a fan of seafood! I'm definitely looking forward to some clam chowder. Lobster rolls sound nice too. Your plans sound neat as well. Where will you go to get some sun?

[Speaker 1] i think i'll try to hit up as many beaches as possible. get the fresh beach air! what is your favorite beach, any to recommend?

[Speaker 2] It's way across the country in San Francisco, but I like Baker Beach. It's got views of the Golden Gate Bridge.

[Speaker 1] Ok, thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking I might take a road trip at some point, if I don't find a job soon. Might as well!  You will get the full summer off right? Do you take on any PT jobs in the summer?

[Speaker 2] I will have the full summer off. I sometimes do some part-time tutoring to supplement my income, but I don't think I'll do that this year. I want to take it easy and travel with my boyfriend instead.

[Speaker 1] That is so nice. It is important to take a break so you don't get burnt out. Have you considered international travel?

[Speaker 2] It definitely is. I've considered international travel, but I find it kind of expensive. Teachers don't earn a lot, as you might know.

[Speaker 1] Ya. It takes a long time to save up for an int'l trip. I actually have a fund set up, but I don't contribute much to it. I'll be lucky to take a trip by 2050! I would love to go to Italy

[Speaker 2] Italy sounds like a wonderful place. I'd love to visit it if I had the means to afford it.
