Speaker 1
Hello?
Speaker 2
Hey, just finished a run, how are you?
Speaker 1
I run, too. I love to. I take my dog sometimes.
Speaker 2
That's great! I gotta run. I'm a tax accountant. Too much time at a desk.
Speaker 1
I have a degree in psychology. I use it on my daughters!
Speaker 2
Sounds useful! Do you like music? I was just listening to sufjan stevens.
Speaker 1
Yes. Maybe my daughters heard of that musician.
Speaker 2
Maybe. I just moved into a new apartment and my neighbor recommended stevens.
Speaker 1
Good for you. What is your favorite food? I am dairy and gluten-free.
Speaker 2
I mostly eat high-protein foods. Part of a diet I'm on.
Speaker 1
What else do you like to do?
Speaker 2
Running and music are really my things right now, usually at the same time!
Speaker 1
I run often with the dog. Although my daughters want a cat.
Speaker 2
Dogs are cool, but I'm not a fan of cats.

Speaker 1
I ended up giving in and getting my daughters the cat.
Speaker 2
Thats hilarious! I don't think I'd be that cool of a parent. What'd she name it?
Speaker 1
Well when you have daughters you sort of give in to them. She named it Angie. 
Speaker 2
I don't know if I could. I just can't stand all the fur and meowing. Has the dog been chasing Angie around?
Speaker 1
My dog has been great with it. But I have to say this my dog is not very smart and I do not think he knows it is alive. I think he thinks it is just another stuff animal.
Speaker 2
I have a feeling like that won't end well! haha. So is there some kind of psychology experiment behind giving the girls a cat or was it just to get them off your back about it?
Speaker 1
Get their them off my back, haha. At least they did not ask for a pet monkey like my friend gave to his daughter.
Speaker 2
Monkeys are pretty cool but that is insane. Is that even legal? haha! I'm going to be so strong willed if I have kids and they will be thoroughly disappointed about it. No monkeys or cats in my house!
Speaker 1
here here to strong willed fathers who stand up to their daughters. Oh by the way, how is your new apartment?
Speaker 2
Its actually pretty spacious. More space than I need really, but the view is so amazing I don't think I plan on downsizing anytime soon.
Speaker 1
So have you found any running trials around your new place?
Speaker 2
Yea that's one of the best things about this place. Its close to parks and theres a forest view out my living room window. There's so many paths to explore I think my legs will wear out before the opportunities for running do! haha

Speaker 1
The dog finally discovered the cat and I had to separate them just now! 
Speaker 2
Omg... it must’ve been a riot! I bet you got a chance to put your degree in psychology to some solid use there ;)
Speaker 1
I sure did! I got there just in time. I hope they can learn to like one another or we might need to re-home one of them.
Speaker 2
Haha... I hope it doesn’t come to that! In any case I’m sure it’s still better than having a monkey in the mix lol
Speaker 1
Monkeys are cute, but they are a lot of work! His name is Marco. Have I ever sent you a picture?
Speaker 2
No you didn’t... I am still having a tough time believing it’s legit... to have a monkey for a pet that is, not that I have anything against Marco... do send me his pic!
Speaker 1
I wonder if it is even legal? I never considered that before...
Speaker 2
Really?! That is crazy indeed. By the way, do you avoiding gluten and dairy because of intolerance or for another reason?
Speaker 1
I have colitis, so my diet has to be managed really closely.
Speaker 2
Yes, you have to be very careful about what you eat. I have a cousin who has colitis and she is very meticulous about her diet too.
Speaker 1
It is brutal. I really miss ice cream. I crave it every day.
Speaker 2
Oh you poor baby... I feel for you! You gotta try Coconut Bliss, a non dairy alternative available at Whole Foods

Speaker 1
How is your new apartment treating you?
Speaker 2
I like it! I like that it is closer to nature than my old apartment.
Speaker 1
That's awesome, I'm so glad you like it! Have you been on any of the trails near your apartment yet?
Speaker 2
Yes I have! I took a break from unpacking to check it out and it is very nice.
Speaker 1
Great! Did you see any cool animals or bugs while hiking? Did you take any pictures?
Speaker 2
I was running on the trail, so I didn't take time to stop and look around. Maybe I should next time
Speaker 1
That makes sense haha. You should! I'd love to see any pictures you take.
Speaker 2
You are so interested in animals! Dogs, cats, monkeys, bugs. That's really cool, but I have never been much of an animal person
Speaker 1
I do like animals, but I also just love appreciating nature. Even when I don't like something, I try my best to appreciate it from a distance!
Speaker 2
That is a great attitude. I definitely try to enjoy the beauty of nature, but I should get up close to understand it better.
Speaker 1
Thank you! I definitely recommend it, especially since you spend so much time outside in nature anyway!
Speaker 2
The nature is part of my new home too. I ought to get familiar with the outdoor surroundings now that I live here

Speaker 1
Are you still enjoying your new apartment? What amenities are nearby?
Speaker 2
I love it because of the convenient access to the city running trails, plus it's very green in the area
Speaker 1
That's great to hear.  Have you been able to hit the trails much?  The weather here has been nothing but rain for 2 weeks so I've been stuck in doors and need to live through someone else.
Speaker 2
I run every day, even in the rain. I've been navigating towards the lakes and preserves. Sometimes you can see interesting animals
Speaker 1
Well you're more dedicated than I am.  Rain makes me melt.  Even worse when it's hot out.  What's the weirdest animals so far?
Speaker 2
I saw a badger, which are dangerous! I'm trying to learn more about nature. I assume you know a lot, given you have a pet monkey!
Speaker 1
Not too knowledgeable on badgers but I do know it's best to keep your distance.  I'd be more concerned with bears though.  You said you listen to music when you run so just be careful.
Speaker 2
Good advice, I could stop the music to help me pay attention. Are you planning to keep Marco?
Speaker 1
I'd like to but we'll see how it goes.  I know monkeys can be temperamental and I worry about the kids or other animals getting hurt.  It wasn't my most well thought out decision when I decided to bring him home.  I love him though. 
Speaker 2
I bet he's complicated; does your psych education help you there?
Speaker 1
Not at all.lol  There is no reasoning with a monkey.  Just rewarding through food to teach new skills.  They're extremely smart.
Speaker 2
At least you an confer with your friend's daughter! Just make sure you get whatever license you need, so that you're covered legally
