Represent the dialog for retrieving similar scenarios Speaker1: Hey Speaker2. How are you?
Speaker2: Ok, it's been quite a week. How are you doing?
Speaker1: To tell you the truth, I'm really homesick.
Speaker2: Oh, sorry to hear that. We miss you around here.
Speaker1: Actually, I was maybe thinking of flying over for Christmas. What do you think?
Speaker2: That would be wonderful :) But are you sure you can get the time off work?
Speaker1: That's what I'm worried about. We always have so much work in December. And everyone in my team would have to agree for me to take the time off.
Speaker2: It doesn't hurt to try, I guess. 
Speaker1: Yeah, I was thinking about asking my colleagues first, to try and see if they have any plans.
Speaker2: Ok, that's a good start. Which dates were you thinking of?
Speaker1: Well, since Christmas is on a Tues, I was thinking of departing the Fri before, so it would be Dec. 21. What do you think?
Speaker2: Great :) The tree and all the decorations will be up by then :)
Speaker1: I have a request, though. Do you think you can lend me $250? I'm a little short.
Speaker2: Of course :) Maybe we can do a little more than that even. Your mom and I would be so thrilled to have you this Christmas.
Speaker1: :) I remember the last time I was there for Christmas. It was definitely one of my all-time fav. Christmases.
Speaker2: Yeah, that was when we had the house in Pelham. Sometimes I regret selling that place.
Speaker1: Yeah, it's too bad. It was so peaceful and serene.
Speaker2: You know that it's actually up for sale now? But the owners have devastated the place. You can check for yourself. It's all on mls.com
Speaker1: Really?? You can buy it again :)
Speaker2: I wish! They're asking for 100,000 more.
Speaker1: Wow, real estate is going through the roof these days. I wonder how I'd ever get back into the market if I went back. Anyways, I'll talk to you later. Jenny wants to go shopping now.
Speaker2: Ok, tell me how it turns out at work and say hi to Jenny for me.
Speaker1: No problem. Bye, and remember to take care of yourself.
Speaker2: Thanks, bye.
Speaker1: Bye
