Another washing and wiping up thingy. I have to make them shorter, so that people at work will actually read them. :)
I drifted in the night, through a seemingly endless maze of dreams. Each turn offered another delicious serving of memories, thoughts, and emotions. Brighter and brighter they shone, until the light of the past became unbearable. I turned away, to face the future once again. Amongst the chaos and uncertainty this view provided, one image was clear; a sink filled with bubbly water...
Oh, and I forgot to post the one from last week...
So tell me, Professor Higgins, tell me why you’re so passionate about washing the dishes.
Ah, Professor Von Gruppenheimer, a very good question indeed! I absolutely adore washing the dishes, for one simple reason. Bubbles.
Bubbles?
Yes, bubbles! Ah, the magnificence of bubbles. Floating, forever floating... Wafting... Drifting...
... ... ...
Professor Higgins? Are you alright?
Huh? Oh yes, Professor Von Gruppenheimer. Where were we?
Would you like to take a short break, Professor Higgins?
Please, call me Fred.
Isn’t your first name Phil?
Oh yes, right. Call me that, then.
Alright Phil, you were speaking of your fascination with bubbles.
Ah, yes, enthralling subject. Enthralling indeed...
... ... ...
Would you care to elaborate?
Oh, oh yes, of course...
... ... ...
Now?
Oh yes. Bubbles. Glorious bubbles. My fascination with bubbles began at age six, when I did the washing and wiping up for the very first time. I happened to notice some shiny, round objects in the water, and I asked my mother about them. “Mummy,” I said “What are these?” “Why, my son, those are bubbles!” she replied. I was captivated. Bubble. What a perfect word! A perfect word for a perfect object. Indeed, bubbles are lovely. But I slowly began to realize that bubbles are more than just lovely, wondrous, fascinating and fantastic; they are also a scientific marvel!
How so?
Well, as you may know, I am in the process of writing my first essay, entitled “Bubbles and you”. It will explain the scientific reasoning behind bubbles, their origin, and why I myself am a bubble.
You’re a bubble?
Why, yes, of course!
Obviously not a literal bubble...
Well, I don’t want to give too much away, but let’s just say that things are not always what they seem.
Right... well thank you very much for speaking with me, Professor Higgins.
Please, call me George.
You mean Phil.
Oh yes. Thank you Professor Von Gruppenheimer. The pleasure is all mine.
Yes, I know. Goodbye.
Goodbye!
