From Time to Time
Speak as Tony
Speak as Jacob
Jacob: That's right. I posted that yesterday. I was at the beach for a few days last week. It was a lot of fun.
Tony: That's cool. How often do you go to the beach?
Jacob: I go there from time to time. My work schedule is unpredictable, so it is hard for me to make vacation plans a long time in advance.
Tony: I see. So, do you just go whenever you have time?
Jacob: Exactly. Last week, I realized that my schedule wasn't very busy, so I made plans to go to the beach with my family on Wednesday, and we left on Thursday.
Tony: That's not a bad way to do it. There is no stress about planning a trip.
Jacob: You're right about that.
