Speaker 1
Have you found a car to buy yet?
Speaker 2
I have narrowed it down to two. I am going to test drive this weekend and make the final decision.
Speaker 1
That's good. I planned to get a new car soon. I picked up a couple extra shifts at the animal ER to help pay for it
Speaker 2
What are you thinking about getting?
Speaker 1
I want a jeep. What are your two choices?
Speaker 2
Either a VW Passat or a Honda Accord. Do you have an opinion on either one?
Speaker 1
I like Honda Accords. I like Hondas in general they are a very good make of cars to me. Are you leaning towards one more than the other?
Speaker 2
I tend to agree with you. The Passat is just less money, so I am open to it.
Speaker 1
I hope it works out for you! Is your legged completely healed up?
Speaker 2
I hope your jeep happens too! We have to go for some joy rides in our new cars! My leg is about 90% there.
Speaker 1
Thank you and yes we do ! Did you break your leg snowboarding?
Speaker 2
You know me too well! I sure did. I will be back out on the powder again though once I am healed.

I love food. I like to eat. I eat cheeseburgers. My favorite singer is Charlie Parker. I like to snowboard. I was hurt before and had to go to the hosptital. My leg is 90% healed. I broke my leg snowboarding. It won't stop me from going out on the snow again once I'm healed. I used to work for cisco before I broke my leg. I'm looking for a car to buy. I have it narrowed down to two. I will be making a decision after test drives this weekend. I am going to buy either a VW Passat or a Honda Accord. I am looking at the Passat because of the lower price, but leaning towards the Accord.
Speaker 1
Maybe you should look into whether the Accord or the Passat handles better in snow?
Speaker 2
that is a very good point. honestly i should have thought about that - because neither of these cars is that great. what am i thinking, i should have gone for a subaru! you said you like accords, what do you like about them?
Speaker 1
I like their reliability. Apparently Hondas do not have much of a record for premature breakdowns or things like that!
Speaker 2
that is true. reliability is very important and hondas are excellent for that. they last forever! if you get a jeep, would you want to take it out to 4x4, or just for your normal commuting?
Speaker 1
Definitely the 4x4. I'd like to drive on the beach to get some weekend bonfires going!
Speaker 2
that sounds nice. definitely love the bonfire to grill up some cheeseburgers!! have you ever been snowboarding before, or you more of a beach type person?
Speaker 1
Definitely more of a beach person. I don't do well in the cold. Also, I've never quite gotten the toe-side figured out for snowboarding.
Speaker 2
i can understand. it does take some time to figure out. i think i am lucky because i have been doing it so long, it was easy to pick up as a kid. do you surf?

I am looking at the Passat because of the lower price, but leaning towards the Accord. I live in a place that gets lots of snow. I've been snowboarding since I was a kid.
Speaker 1
Do you also ski or do you just stick with snowboarding? 
Speaker 2
I mostly just snowboard. My friends and I got started in it when we were in our teens. I do know some that ski but it's really not for me. How about you, do you like snowboarding? I know you said you weren't good at it yet but do you enjoy it?
Speaker 1
Yes I do really enjoy it. I hope one day I will be good at it. How long do you think it will take me?
Speaker 2
It will take quite a bit. It's very different that surfing or anything like that. The most important thing is to try and stay balanced. It's key to ensuring that you stay on your board and level on the snow.
Speaker 1
Ok, thank you. I will keep that in mind. Any tips are more than welcome. I am scared of having an accident that anything that can help avoid nd make me better is much appreciated. After your accident did it take long to get back on the snow?
Speaker 2
Yeah I'm not fully healed up all the way. I'll be back boarding and grinding on the snow before you know it. I understand it can be scary but if you take your time and don't take too many big risks, you'll be fine. I've been snowboarding since I was a kid but only got serious in my teens with my friends. I've only had this one accident so it should be fine. How many times have you been? 
Speaker 1
I have only been five times so far. Going again on the weekend and then next weekend with a friends. I am looking forward to going with my friend as it will be the first time I do it with someone else. Do you normally go on your own or with someone?
Speaker 2
I tend to go with other people. Usually a group of 5 or 6 of us. Snowboarding alone isn't really that fun as you can't show off your sick moves and all. I'm glad you are going with friends. It's helpful to learn with a group rather than alone you know?
Speaker 1
Yes, I did the first few alone with an instructor so I can practice. Now I feel more comfortable to do it with people I think I will prefer it. It helps to make it seem like a fun experience. I am hoping one day to go to the Alps and do it there. Is there anywhere you want to go to snowboard?
Speaker 2
Everyone wants to go to the Alps but location doesn't mean too much to me. I live in an area that I can snowboard all the time anyway. Don't get me wrong though - the alps sound amazing! So let me ask you something. Have you ever gone surfing?
Speaker 1
No I have never tried it before. I prefer cold weather activities to warm weather activities.  Do you like surfing?
Speaker 2
Once a good while ago. Before I was busy with work and things of that nature. My friends invited me on a trip to the beach. I tried it there and it was a completely different experience than I thought. I just thought you might have since you like the beach and all.

I am afraid of having a snowboarding accident. I am willing to listen to an expert and follow directions. I have snowboarded alone 5 times. I am going snowboarding the next two weekends. I will be going with friends on weekend after next. I took snowboarding lessons. I feel comfortable enough to go with another person now. I want to go the the Alps and snowboard. I have never gone surfing. I prefer winter sports.

I have only had one accident snowboarding. I have been snowboarding since I was a child but got serious about it as a teen. I usually go snowboarding with 5-6 other people. I do not think snowboarding alone is much fun. I think it is helpful to snowboard with other people. I do not care where I go snowboarding. I can snowboard where I live. I have surfed once. I went on a trip to the beach with my friends.
Speaker 1
There was a weird case at the animal hospital today; a dog got caught in a bear trap.
Speaker 2
Oh, that sounds scary! How did you handle it?
Speaker 1
It was crazy, it was like the dog knew were trying to help it. It stayed very still and didn't try to bite us or anything.  We opened the trap and the leg was a mess.
Speaker 2
Oh no, was the dog okay?
Speaker 1
Yeah, the leg was broken, and had some pretty bad cuts.  We gave the dog and IV with antibiotics and put a cast on the dog.  The owner was really happy that the dog is going to be fine.  
Speaker 2
Good to hear that the dog will be fine! Have you managed to pay off most of the car?
Speaker 1
I'm making a dent in the payments, but it will probably be at least a year of extra shifts to get it paid off. Man, once I do get that car paid off, I'll be able to really save some money.  Maybe even take a trip or two to the beach. 
Speaker 2
That's unfortunate, I'd suggest taking a trip to snowboard also, it's really fun!
Speaker 1
I know you love to snowboard, and maybe I'll give it another try.  Maybe I would think it's more fun if I found some people to go with who can show me how to do it a little better.  
Speaker 2
Yea, you could try to get an instructor to go with! have you looked into getting another car?
Speaker 1
Nah, what with the car payments, I don't think I can afford an instructor. Maybe next year when I get my finances under control and have some money saved up.
