2016.08.08 07:00 - Adael lost in translation

The Guardian for this meeting was Eden Haiku. The comments are by Eden Haiku. This was a fun, light session. Adams came in with Adael on her shoulder and the cute furry graced our conversation with her wit, even quipping Shakespeare’s quotes. But all was lost in the log as you will read further down...

Eden Haiku: And I listen to the music of lawn mowers and birds and the wind :)
Riddle Sideways: and listen to the rocks

Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Eliza Madrigal laughs
Riddle Sideways: :)
Eliza Madrigal: you would make a great Disney character

The quality of the air

Eden Haiku: I walked a lot in Paris but the air is not as pure :)

Riddle Sideways: air quality here is getting better. was outside yesterday afternoon for first time in 2 weeks

Riddle Sideways: the wind direction shifted
Eden Haiku: Still burning, wow...
Riddle Sideways: Mary Poppins might leave
Eden Haiku: :(
Riddle Sideways: they are going to let the middle national forest burn
Catrinamonblue Resident: sometimes fires can be good for the health of a forest
Catrinamonblue Resident: fires*
Eden Haiku: How sad...the only way to contain the fires I guess...
Eden Haiku: Yes, nature is always beneficial to itself; it's humans who can't deal with all these changes...
Catrinamonblue Resident: yes
Eden Haiku: Thanks Adael :)
Eliza Madrigal: I used to think I was good with change, but that was from a narrow view
Riddle Sideways: yes, a species that build precious things in the forests
Eden Haiku: From a wider perspective you are not so comfortable with change Eliza?
Eliza Madrigal: nods, I now realize how much I wrestle to keep things under some sort control...
Eliza Madrigal: even if my version is a bit different from others
Riddle Sideways: from a Greater space or knowledge?
Eliza Madrigal: "my space" and things like that
Eden Haiku: Missed this: [07:46] Adael: I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Eliza Madrigal: @@
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Eden Haiku: Adael might not be the old wise cat we thought her to be?
Eliza Madrigal: or very well versed in world politics
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Eden Haiku: LOL
Eden Haiku: Maybe she reads too much Agatha Christie novels?
Eliza Madrigal: looking for conspiracies?
Riddle Sideways: and waging peace

You are killing me Adael

Eden Haiku: Was telling the plot of 'Death on the Nile" I just finished to my companion yesterday. So many characters. I felt like my 5 yo old neighbor telling me about Pokemons decades ago :)
Eden Haiku: Still playing Pokemon Go with your daughetrs Eliza?

Catrinamonblue Resident: lol
Eden Haiku: Plus Louise Bourget and Jacqueline Whatever and who else? The mechanics. They are never the killers these low-caste characters...
Eden Haiku: Adams, such a stern parent she is :)
Catrinamonblue Resident: :)
Riddle Sideways: "Killing me softly with your words"
