person A: My husband hangs steel and the last time he had to go work in another state I felt really lost and alone for a bit.
person B: I feel the same way when I'm away from my cat.  Does he have to travel a lot for work?
person A: Sometimes he does.  Lately there hasn't been any local work so he has had to go out of state and its just too far to come back.
person B: Maybe one day if you have the time_comma_ you can pay him a surprise visit.
person A: That is a good idea! I'll have to sneak his work schedule and give it a try.
