Friday: Hili dialogue (and lagniappe)

October 16, 2015 • 5:02 am

The work week is drawing to an end, and posting will be light for the next few days as I’ll be attending the Atheist Alliance of American conference in Atlanta. In the meantime, perhaps my co-writers will fill in. If not, talk among yourselves. Meanwhile in Dobrzyn, the long shadow of a morning cat presages the weak slant of winter light.

Hili: Do you see the long shadow of a morning cat?
A: I do. This is the longest shadow in your career.

P1030479

In Polish:
Hili: Czy widzisz długi cień porannego kota?
Ja: Widzę, to najdłuższy cień w twojej karierze.
As lagniappe, reader jsp contributed a photo of a cat from below:

  1. “Meanwhile in Dobrzyn, the long shadow of a morning cat presages the weak slant of winter light.”

    How poetic!

    And that cat from below–outstanding! And funny. 😀

      1. My shadow doesn’t get that long because I’m rarely up early enough!

        The early bird catches the worm, and the early cat catches the bird.

  2. “I am your shadow, my lord; I’ll follow you.”
    The cat from below looks to be a kitten, methinks.

  3. Lagniappe: perhaps that is why the world seems to have so much time finding their subscribed deity. They look up expecting to see a face when they should be looking for feet.

  4. That is the most totes adorbs kitteh pic I’ve ever seen!!1!
    Those tiny toe and foot pads, and the tiny little claw tips… oh, squeeeeeeeee!

    Sorry, I don’t usually emote so much, but… squeeeeee!… I just can’t seem to help myself… lol!!1!!1

    1. Oh and thanks to jsp (and PCC) for the great feels this morning!
      And it’s now my desktop background. I work at a vet school and I’m waiting for more people to come in just so I can show them your pic!

      (Already passed it on to some faculty I know will like it!)
