Talk about the topic parts a and B.

You know what I want right now?

Don’t tell me chocolate?

Yep, I’m totally craving like a big piece of chocolate cake with an espresso.

You don’t believe there are bad for you?

Well, how can chocolate cake and espresso be bad for me when I taste so good.

Sounds like somebody has an addiction, like you kind of need to back cake and coffee.

Well I wouldn’t say that, I mean I think a craving is different from an addiction.

Huum, I don’t know if I agree with that. I guess it depends on how badly and how often you crave something.

That’s a good way to put it, like I’m craving chocolate and coffee today but as soon as I have it, I won’t really want again, for I don’t know a few weeks.

Oh, so then you’re not an addict. Tell me what you think about this every Wednesday night, there’s a live music show on MTV and all I can think about on Wednesdays is getting home to see it. And if for some reason I miss it. I’m really low and depressed.

Well for it to be an addiction has to be harmful right? So what’s the harm in that, do you think?

Well, I guess I could be studying during that time, but mostly it just fuels my need to hear good music.

Well I think that’s a good addiction, in my opinion.

A good addiction. I like that idea.

Yeah, you have to have good addictions, it keeps, keeps your heads straight.
