"Hey Sarah. Why are you limping?"

B: "Oh. Hi Matt. I went snowboarding yesterday and my whole body aches."

A: "Was it your first time?"

B: "Yeah. And I never want to go again."

A: "I remember the first time I went. My back was sore, I couldn't sit down because it hurt my butt, and my legs would cramp if I walked too fast."

B: "That's exactly how I feel now."

A: "It's only like that the first couple of times."

B: "Ha. There won't be a next time."

A: "You gotta give it a chance. It's fun after a while."

B: "I'll think about it after I start feeling better. Right now, I don't even want to hear the word snowboarding."

B: "You've been sneezing a lot lately. Are you sick or something?"

A: "No. Every spring time around April, I'm stricken with allergies."

B: "I never have seasonal allergies."

A: "Consider yourself lucky."

B: "What are all the symptoms?"

A: "Well, as you just saw, I sneeze a lot. Also, my nose becomes very runny, my throat sometimes itches, and my eyes start to water."

B: "That doesn't sound good."

A: "No it's not. So you don't have any type of allergies?"

B: "Well, I have a severe allergic reaction to alcohol. It runs in the family."

A: "Everyone to some extent is allergic to alcohol."

B: "I get it pretty bad. My whole face turns red, including my ears. My eyes become bloodshot, and I start to itch all over my body."

A: "That's pretty bad."

B: "But that doesn't stop me from drinking. Hahaha."
