"Just working. You know, day to day, thing to thing. I'm hanging in there. You?"

"Same, everything is going really well. You ever seen anybody?"

"Yeah, me too. It was really great seeing you though."

"Yeah it was good seeing you to. You should really drop me a line or give me a call some time. Let me know you're doing ok, make it one less old friend I have to worry about."

"I will, you could do the same. So I don't have to worry about you."
