[speaker001:] Hi, Michael, how's it going?
[speaker002:] Well, things are all right.
[speaker001:] I heard you got a new roommate. What's he like?
[speaker002:] Yeah, Bob moved in last week. He is a nice guy and so far everything is cool except this girlfriend.
[speaker001:] Oh? What's wrong with his girlfriend?
[speaker002:] She came over last weekend. She is a nice girl but there's something about her voice that really creeps me out. I tried to smile and be polite, but the whole time all I could think was " what's wrong with your voice? "
[speaker001:] Well, I guess it might take some time to get used to.
[speaker002:] I doubt it. Last time was an oral train wreck. Listening to her talk is like chewing tin foil.
[speaker001:] Oh come on, it's not that bad.
[speaker002:] No, it's so much worse. And tonight they invited me out to dinner. I really have no idea how I'm going to pull it off.
[speaker001:] Rough. Maybe you can do the most of the talking.
[speaker002:] That's the plan.
[speaker001:] Good luck.
