W: No, really. What have you been doing these past few weeks? The last time when I saw you you were looking for a new job. M: Well, that's not exactly true. I was thinking about changing jobs. Luckily, that was an taken care of when they offered me a new position in the accounts department. W: A step up in the big business world! M: I'm pleased. I had been hoping to get a promotion for a while, so when it finally came through I was relieved. W: I hope the money's better. M: I got a reasonable raise. Now, enough about me. I’m dying to hear your news. W: Hold on now... I'm getting married! M: NO! You said you'd never get married. I can't believe it. W: That was then and this is now. You've got to meet Ken, he's heaven. M: So come on. This is all news to me. I didn't even know you were dating. W: We weren't. We've just been doting for two weeks now. M: ... and. you're getting married! W: I know, I know.
