Bobby: Kelly, can you turn the vibes up a little?
Kelly: Sure, but it's already pretty loud.
Bobby: That's OK. I love to have loud music on when I am doing the housework.
Kelly: Is that so you don't get so bored while you are washing and scrubbing?
Bobby: That's absolutely right.
Kelly: I hate chores as well, so maybe I will follow your example and get into some music.
Bobby: You will find that the time just flies when you are listening to music while you work.
Kelly: I should take some CDs to work with me then.
Bobby: I don't think the boss or your colleagues would like loud music when they were trying to work!
Kelly: Good point! I will leave the music at home.
