(Paul and Marie talk about their daily activities.)
Marie: Paul, you're late again.
Paul: Sorry. I never get up before 8:45.
Marie: 8:45?! That's late!
Paul: What time do you get up?
Marie: 5:00 A.M.
Paul: 5:00 A.M.?! That's early! What do you do in the morning?
Marie: Well, after I get up I usually make breakfast, take out the garbage, do the laundry ...
Paul: The laundry?
Marie: Yes. Then I read the newspaper, check my e-mail, sometimes I take a nap ...
Paul: You take a nap in the morning?!
Marie: Just fifteen minutes. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I exercise. And on the other days I clean the house. Then I take a shower, get dressed, put on my makeup, and go to work.
Paul: Wow. You never sleep late?
Marie: On the weekends I sleep 'til 6:00.
Paul: That's really late. You do laundry in the morning?
Marie: And the evening. Why, when do you do the laundry?
Paul: Usually in March. And September.
