Hello, I'm just finishing a painting of a pug!
Speaker 2
That sounds fun! I don't paint, but I like running.
Speaker 1
I'm at the beach because nature is a great backdrop and good for running.
Speaker 2
That's true. What do you do for work?
Speaker 1
I'm an animal portraitist inspired by rock music. You??
Speaker 2
I'm a tax accountant, so I'm busy now because it's tax season..
Speaker 1
Cool, are acrylic paints tax and rock albums deductable??
Speaker 2
Depends on if you use them for your work! Where do you live?
Speaker 1
In miami because my mother works in nursing at a hospital here.
Speaker 2
That makes sense. I just moved into a new place myself.
Speaker 1
Where do you live and does it have nature?
Speaker 2
I'm in an apartment, so no nature. What music do you listen to?
Speaker 1
A lot of eighties rock like guns and roses and bon jovi. You?

No, that is one of my dreams though.
Speaker 1
Yeah he is amazing, the next time he is close by i will take you to see him.

Woah that would be amazing! Thank you! Hey hows those animal portraits going?
Speaker 1
You're welcome. They going well thank you. I going to a panda sanctuary next week to do some paintings of them should turn out well hopefully. 
Speaker 2
That sounds pretty fun. Are pandas your favorite?
Speaker 1
They are for sure one of mine. Especially the baby pandas. They are super cute and so tiny. 
Speaker 2
Oh i know, its amazing they grow to be so big!
Speaker 1
Yes they really do. What is your favorite animal?

Speaker 1
Have you settled into your new apartment? 
Speaker 2
Not yet. I'm still unpacking. I like taking my time. It really relaxes me to set everything up perfectly in a new place.
Speaker 1
I agree with that, I like to slowly feel it out whenever I am adjusting to a new home or place that I spend a lot of time in.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I only wish I had more time! See anything cool on your runs lately?
Speaker 1
I see a lot of wildlife usually. Mostly its just birds and squirrels. One time I saw a bobcat though.
Speaker 2
A bobcat? I love those things. They're so cute. I wouldn't want to tangle with one though. Have they gotten close?
Speaker 1
No, they normally keep their distance. They are incredibly athletic. You can find videos of them on the internet jumping 12 feet into a tree to grab a bird.
Speaker 2
Oh my God! I'll have to check that out on one of my nightly YouTube binges when I can't sleep. LOL
Speaker 1
How has your job been going? Since you are into tax accounting, does it normally pick up a lot around the Spring?
Speaker 2
Yeah, we get a lot of people filing their taxes late. I make sure to file mine the second it's possible with the government, personally.
Speaker 1
I have to admit that I don't usually do mine right away, haha. I almost always put my tax return into my savings account or investment account, so I am not itching to get my hands on it right away.
Speaker 2
A lot of people feel the same. It's good for me because I get a bulk of the work all at once!

I like to take my time when moving into a new space. I go running regularly in non-urban areas. I pay attention to my surrounding when I run. I know something about bobcats. I postpone filing my taxes. I prioritize saving my money.
Speaker 2
I like to run. I am a tax accountant. I am busy. I recently moved. I live in an apartment. I like Sufjan Stevens. I find it cathartic to carefully and slowly set up my new space.I have been too busy to focus on moving in as much as I would like to. I think bobcats are cute but I respect that they are actually dangerous animals. I am interested in cool videos, including about animals. I experience insomnia.  I have to deal with clients filing their taxes late. I make sure to file my taxes as early as possible. I enjoy being able to take care of a lot of work in a short amount of time.
Speaker 1
I decided to paint a bobcat on the spur of the moment, which I've never done before, and it's coming along great!
Speaker 2
Well that is terrific news. I'd love to see it when you finish. When do you think that will be?
Speaker 1
I think in about a week i should be done with it. I am taking my time because I have never done it before and I do not want to mess it up. I would love for you to see it when its finished. Maybe you can come by one day. After it is all done.
Speaker 2
Excellent! I will definitely come by. What about a week from tomorrow?
Speaker 1
That sounds like sounds good. If i run into any problems and can not finish it by then I will let you know. Maybe you can come by around dinner time and I can order take out or something.
Speaker 2
I'm down for that. Should we do pizza, Chinese, or Thai?
Speaker 1
I like all of them what is your favorite?
Speaker 2
Right now, I've been eating as much Thai food as possible. I've become completely obsessed with green curry. But we can also wait until next week and make a decision that night depending on how we're feeling. How does that sound? 
Speaker 1
That sounds good. Because something may sound good but next week we may not want it. Do you order that out a lot or do you go to the place and eat?
Speaker 2
Lately been ordering in a lot. We can go out if you'd prefer though? 
Speaker 1
We can decide that next week all so. Because it could be raining and who want to go out in the rain.
Speaker 2
True. I am excited to see your painting. I am also excited to eat! I love dinner! Let's say 7?

Speaker 1
I actually started on a few different bobcat designs. Do you want to see the ones I picked out? 
Speaker 2
Yeah, definitely.  Do you have your own gallery or Etsy shop?
Speaker 1
I'm thinking to have a Etsy shop but io don't know how it works. Do you know anything about it?
Speaker 2
I'm not 100 percent positive but I think you pay a monthly "rent" to have a shop on Etsy and then you just list your work with prices and descriptions.  You can pay to have your shop promoted so it becomes more visible.  It's definitely a good way to get your art out farther than just a local gallery.
Speaker 1
This sounds really great. I'm definitely checking it out later. Did you watch the videos i told you about the Bobcats ?
Speaker 2
Yeah, I sent it to my friend to remind her about the time she was outside smoking one night and a bobcat came flying past her and leaped in the air to snatch a bird.  She didn't appreciate it.lol
Speaker 1
Haha not for her definitely Lol. They're cute but really dangerous. I'm going to paint a bobcat for sure soon. I think I'm more interested in them than i thought. How is insomnia treating you?
Speaker 2
It comes and goes.  I'm off work until Tuesday because of the holiday so I've been able to stress less about sleep which in turn allows me to sleep.lol
Speaker 1
that is great news. I think you need a vacation or you should start running. I don't know i have a feeling it will help you. 
Speaker 2
I definitely do need to get back into exercising.  It's been a long time though and it's hard to get back into the swing of it but I plan on it.  Not sure about the running though.lol  I was more into weight lifting.
Speaker 1
Exercise is great way to release stress too, People think it is just lifting but it helps a lot. You should definitely get back to it. I could never exercise much but you can make run all you want lol. Maybe I'll run 5K or 10K at some point.
Speaker 2
I tried the Couch to 5k program years ago and never finished which is why I stick to weights.  I do wish I could run at least a mile or two but I just despise it so I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll never be a runner.lol
