Всё начинается с чьей-либо мечты
jared comes in in the morning saying, 'morning, my busy, busy, always so gosh busy girl'.
'do you know how they call it in russia?', i ask drowsily.
'how do they call what in russia? morning?', jared wondered.
'oh, come on! course a 'morning' in russian is too hard to spell and learn for me to think that you know it', i replied.
'you're such a tease, amelfa!', he said with a wince.
i winced in return and he gave up and asked, 'so what did you ask about?'.
'do you know how they call somebody absurdly busy in russia?', i asked.
'nope. this word is probably too hard for me to learn as well', he winced again.
'you said that yourself. but in a word-for-word translation it's a busy sausage', i answered.
'why sausage?', he looked surprised.
'why busy bee?', it was my turn to ask.
'cause bee is busy!'.
'reasonable', i had to admit. 'well, i don't know why. cause it's fun. can you imagine a busy sausage? it's silly, therefore very metaphoric, figural'.
'and how do you say it in russian?', he asked.
'de-low-why-ah call-ba-sa', i spelled it.
jared whispered it a few times under breath then gave a wave of his hand and smiled,
'nah, that's really tricky! but you're a busy sausage from now on!'.
he meant it.
