Eavesdropping

Various conversations that I heard sometime between Wednesday and today
1: “How was your vacation? How was your marathon?”
2: “It was great! At least I finished.”
1: “That’s still pretty good! Have you run them before?”
2: “No, Chicago was my first one. It was mostly flat, which was nice. Still, it was like 80 degrees out.”
1: “Wow, seriously? That’s terrible. I can’t really run if it’s more than 65 out.”
2: “Yeah, I had to walk a bit when I got to mile 22, but I finished the last two miles running.”
1: “Well, still, congratulations on finishing!”
1: “I think I’m seeing double.”
2: “Honey, you say that every time you wear those tight jeans.”
1: “Dog.”
2: “Cat.”
1: “Amanda. I hate you.”
2: “Is that an animal?”
1: “Yeah, sure.”
1: “Hey have you sent out those documents yet? I need them!”
2: “Yeah, I already did, check your email.”
1: “No, I don’t have them yet, and I can’t finish my part without it.”
2: “I sent them already!”
1: “No you didn’t!”
2: “Look, in my sent mail, it says I sent it already!”
1: “But I haven’t gotten it yet!”
*Momentary pause*
1: “Oh nevermind.”
1: “Oh my god it hurt so bad, they freaking stuck a needle through my foot.”
2: “Through your foot?”
1: “Yeah, it was the numbing needle before they actually injected the antibiotics.”
2: “I absolutely hate needles, they make me want to throw up”
1: “I know. I couldn’t even look when the doctor was doing it. And now I’m limping around. God, it hurts so bad.”
1: “I’m so hungry.”
2: “I know right? I didn’t have lunch.”
1: “I didn’t either. Wanna go on a free food run in about 15 minutes?”
2: “Sure, I think there’s pizza on the 26th floor.”
1: “Really? Then I think I’ll just take my break right now.”


Extra super interesting dialogue (although I didn't hear this one, I had the person himself type it up for me):
1: "You know how Travis McCoy said the world better prepare for when I'm a billionaire? Well, the world better prepare for when I'm a trillionaire."
2: "What are you going to do with a trillion dollars?"
1: "I don't know. I could fill a stadium with hookers."
2: "A lifetime supply a hookers?"
1: "Yes, if you invest in my company right now, I'll give you 10% of all the hookers plus all the Asian ones"
2: "You'll run out of hookers before you run out of money."
1: "Even better."
