2008.09.24 01:00 - Even if Briefly

That night all was very quiet at the pavilion, after I, Pema, arrived at 1 am SLT. After 23 minutes Corvuscorva arrived, but alas, I had to leave for a dinner appointment very soon afterward. As a result, our chat was quite minimal.

Corvuscorva Nightfire: Hello, Pema.
Pema Pera: Hi Corvi!!
Pema Pera: Good seeing you here, on a quiet night in Rieul :-)
Corvuscorva Nightfire smiles. It's good to see you as well....how's your connection today?
Corvuscorva Nightfire: Is it...evening, there?
Pema Pera: close to dinner time
Pema Pera: Today the connection is perfect; I'm at home for a change
Corvuscorva Nightfire: ahhh, nice.
Pema Pera: fiber optics connection (don't even have that in Manhattan yet, believe it or not, they still haven't wired the Upper West Side with fiber optics!!)
Corvuscorva Nightfire: no?
Pema Pera: The only drawback is today that I'll have to run in five minutes, for a dinner appointment . . . .
Corvuscorva Nightfire smiles...awww
Pema Pera: given that our guardian slots are minimally till half past the hour, though in practice we often stay longer, as you know, when we have time
Pema Pera: And how are you?
Corvuscorva Nightfire: Yes..I know.
Corvuscorva Nightfire: I'm well.
Corvuscorva Nightfire: You?
Pema Pera: oh, sure, busy but happy with all the things I do
Corvuscorva Nightfire: mmmm. I am glad to hear it.
Pema Pera: are there particular topics, among all that we're talking about here off and on, that you'd like to talk more about?
Corvuscorva Nightfire looks at the two minutes left....hahahhah...not right this moment....
Pema Pera: sorry about that, Corvi -- but we can always pick up things later!
Corvuscorva Nightfire: oh! don't be sorrry! But all my thoughts take longer than that.
Pema Pera: I have a peaceful sit by myself, from 1 am onward, for 20 minutes :-)
Corvuscorva Nightfire nods..yes.
Corvuscorva Nightfire: I'll sit here after you are gone...and just think.
Pema Pera: maybe others will show up!
Corvuscorva Nightfire: enjoy dinner!
Pema Pera: good seeing you, Corvi, even if briefly, take care
Pema Pera: thanks!
Corvuscorva Nightfire: Good to see you as well.
