Dialogue:

W: What time do you get up to go to work, Jerry?

M: I'm usually up by 6:00 and out of the house by 6:15.

W: That's pretty early. Don't you start work at 9:00?

M: Well, I go to the gym every morning before I arrive at the office. There aren't many other people there at that time, and I usually don't feel like exercising after a long day at work. But the real reason is that it gives me the energy I need to make it through the day.

W: So, you take a shower at the gym every morning?

M: During the week, yes. I don't go to the gym on the weekend. I get all the exercise I need playing with my two sons at the park!

W: I'll bet! My husband is always tired after he takes our daughter hiking in the mountains on the weekends.

M: Hey, Sophie, we should all get together and do something fun this weekend. I know Molly would love to see you.

W: That sounds great.
