It’s 5:30 a.m. in Chicago: the time I usually post the Hili dialogues. Here in Delhi, though it’s 4:55 pm, so there’s an 11.5 hour time difference (the time zones are half-an-hour skewed here).
I plan have one or two things posted before I leave tomorrow (up at 3 a.m.), and someone else will post Ms. Hili’s lucubrations in the interim, as Internet is uncertain. There will probably be a few open threads, and Greg will fill in as he can, though Matthew has been laid low by the flu. Stay tuned until the next time Professor Ceiling Cat gets on the internet.
Meanwhile in Dobryzyn, Hili is being bumptious, and Malgorzata is afraid for her glasses:
Hili: Tissues, glasses, nitroglycerin and a cat. Surely that’s all one needs on a bedside table.Malgorzata: A lack of a cat would be desirable.
In Polish:
Hili: Chusteczki do nosa, okulary, nitrogliceryna i kot. To chyba jest wszystko, co jest potrzebne na nocnym stoliku.
Małgorzata: Brak kota byłby pożądany.
Poor Matthew – hope it doesn’t spoil his trip to see Sophie (he said he was going on Tw#*ter!)…

PS “nitroglycerin and a cat” – one explosive combination!
Such heart-starting possibilities.
Indeed. Not sure I could get my heart going at all without a certain cat.

This is disturbing (lacking an open thread…)

Hili is too cute to disagree with!
Extreme envy re: Malgorzata’s unique bedside table.
I find myself feeling dizzy at its floatiness. How does it work?!
I’ve been enamored with all the furniture they have in that line since the first picture Jerry posted of it.

I thought that maybe Hili had turned the table upside down?
