    • “Well, hello early bird. Up at the crack of dawn today, huh?”
    • “I can’t believe you beat me to a morning text!”

    Use your current conversation as a building block for another topic! Ideally, you and the other person shouldn't be asking interview-style questions or giving one-word answers.
