Hello, Mary, it's me, Mike. Am I calling at a bad time?
No, not really.
I have invited some of my friends to dinner at my house this evening. I thought maybe you'd like to come, too.
Well, that sounds good, but I'm afraid I've got to do some reading for my English course.
Today is Friday. You've got to relax and enjoy yourself at the weekend.
I know. But there is a lot of reading to do. Besides, I really ought to do my washing this evening.
Then would you like to come just for a drink later on instead?
Actually, I'd like to go to bed early tonight. I'm a bit tired.
All right. Have a good rest. I'll call you again tomorrow.
Don't call me early. I usually sleep until eleven on Saturdays.
What? That'll be too late for our Saturday country drive.
Did I say I'll go with you for a drive to the country?
No, but I have already planned everything.
Listen, Mike. I like to plan my own days myself.
