Ted

What do you say we should do this weekend?

I don’t know about you, but I’d love to go to that brunch spot again. And drink half-price mimosas? That sounds like a great idea.

Yeah, I like the sound of that. And maybe afterwards we can all get our nails done.

Yeah, me too. You know what, I’d be up for getting a full spa treatment.

How about squeezing in some shopping too?

Sounds like a full day. But I’d be willing to do that in between brunch and the spa.

Same, that way we can save the best for last. I can’t wait.

I can’t wait either. This is going to be the best girl’s day out ever!

Hi, my dear friend. What are you going to do next holiday?

Maybe, you will need a sleeping bag, repellent insects and a map. Don’t forget your swimsuit and sunglasses.
