UMonica Coleman: Sivuka nelanga kufuneka siphunga ikofu. Sisanda kufumana umatshini weJura, owenza naluphi na uhlobo lwekofu. Sihleli kwiveranda sinxibe iikimonos ezafunyanwa nguKate xa wayekhenketha eJapan, sasela ikofu yethu kwaye sinentlanganiso yeshishini malunga nento esiza kuyenza namhlanje. Kate Pierson: Ukuba ilanga alisivusi, uLoki ubetha omnye wethu entloko ngesipho sakhe. Ukuba ndiphakame ngaphambi kokuba uMonica ndizise ibhayinotyhulayi yam kunye newotshi yeentaka kwiveranda.
MC: Ukususela kwi-9 ukuya kwi-10 sithatha izinja kwi-hike. Kufana nokuhamba yonke imihla. Singatya amakhowa, endiya kuwagalela kwi-omelet kwisidlo sakusasa. KP: Sinokubona iibhere okanye amaxhama. Ndicula ndikhwaza kakhulu ukuze ndibagxothe. Ndenza iminxeba yeentaka kwaye noYoko Ono uyakhala.
MC: Sobabini singabalimi abanyanzelekileyo. Lixesha kuphela apho sikhe sibe nokungavisisani. Silima iitumato, isquash, cucumber, kale kunye neSwiss chard. Senza ijam kunye netoti yeetumato. UKate unebhedi enkulu yeentyatyambo. Ndim ongcono egadini kodwa ndiye ndamvumela ukuba akholelwe ukuba ungoyena ungcono. KP: Senza isitiya izihlandlo eziliqela ngemini. Izolile kakhulu. Lunyango lokhula. Ngamanye amaxesha siqala ukuhlakula kwiimpahla zethu zokuhlambela size singakwazi ukuyeka.
Kate: Ngexesha le-Covid yokuqala sobabini siye satyeba ngoko ke senza inzila. Umhlobo wethu ulahlekelwe iipounds ezili-12 ukwenza oko, ngoko sinokutya kuphela ukusuka kwi-11 ukuya kwi-7. Ngomzuzu sibuyisela izinja ekhaya sivuya kakhulu kuba yi-11, ngoko sinokutya! Ndikhe ndakha amaqunube namaqunube egadini, ngoko ke yinxalenye yesidlo sakusasa sethu. Sivula i-WAMC, esisikhululo sethu se-NPR sasekhaya.
MC: Ngelixa uKate esenza ii-imeyile zebhendi okanye elungiselela udliwano-ndlebe — ebesenza imidlalo ye-intanethi — ndingena ekhompyuter. Ndilawula zombini iipropati. Kwiyure elandelayo ndifunda ii-imeyile zeshishini. Ndifana ne-paranoid, ke ndinekhamera kuyo yonke indawo kumabala. Ndibona amabhere ejikela inkunkuma. Ndiyabona ukuba ngubani ongenayo. Ndifana ne-Oz yesigebenga.
MC: Ukufika kuka-Covid, savala iinyanga ezimbalwa, kwaye okokuqala sithanda ukuba nepropathi. Bendingasoze ndingene ebhafini eshushu. Ibisoloko ingumsebenzi kum. Ndaphinda ndayithanda le ndawo. NgoMeyi saya kwisiqingatha somthamo kwaye sarenta onke amanye amagumbi ngoLwesihlanu ukuya ngeCawa. Emva koko sivala inzala iintsuku ezintathu kunye namagumbi atshintshileyo. Sicela wonke umntu anxibe iimaski. Izitshixo zisemacangweni. Abantu abanakulinda ukurenta ngoku. Kwaye wonke umntu unombulelo kakhulu.
Ngelixa uMonica esebenza, ndiqhuba ijee yam eorenji ukuya kwisitudiyo sam, esasisakuba yibhari esasiyiguqule. Kukude ngemizuzu emihlanu kuphela. Yingcwele enkulu, enemibalabala ezaliswe zizikhumbuzo ze-B-52. Ndikhe ndakhenketha iminyaka engaphezu kwama-40. Ndiyalikhumbula iqela. Sigcina umsonto wokubhaliweyo uqhubeka. UFred uhlala ethumela izinto ezihlekisayo ngokwenene. Ndisebenza kwicwecwe lesibini endilodwa; yonke into ibhaliwe. Ndifunda iLogic Pro X, eyinkqubo yokurekhoda. Bekumnandi ukufunda into entsha ngokupheleleyo.
MC: Ngo-1, nditsibela kwilori yam kwaye ndijonge amagumbi kunye neendawo. Ndiza kuphosa ipali yokuloba ndizame ukuloba iitrout emlanjeni. Ukuba kukho into endiyibambileyo siza kuba nayo isidlo sangokuhlwa. Ndiye ndathenga igrocery. Ndisekhaya ngo-4 ukuze ndikwazi ukwenza iklasi ye-Yin yoga iiyure ezimbini. Ubambe imizuzu emihlanu de umzimba wakho ukhuphe i-toxins kwaye uzisa i-hydration kwinkqubo yakho ye-fascia.
KP: Ngelixa esenza i-yoga, ndidlala isiginkci, kwaye qho ngeCawe ndineFictionary Zoom nabahlobo abahlanu. Umntu ukhetha igama kwaye wonke umntu wenza inkcazo; enye yinyani. Emva koko umntu omnye ufunda zonke iinkcazo kwaye uzama ukukhetha eyona yokwenyani. Kunzima ngokwenene, kwaye wonke umntu ulungile ngokwenene ekwenzeni oku. Bekumnandi ukudibanisa kwaye ubone ubuso babo. Umjikelo wesibini nezinja wenzeka malunga no-5:30. Ndigibisela isosari, ndibabukele beleqa imivundla kwaye ndidlale nabo ngemizuzu engama-20.
MC: Ndenza isidlo sangokuhlwa. Kufuneka siyeke ukutya ngo 7. UKate uzakube sele elungiselele into ekukutya okucholwe egadini yethu ngelixa bendisenza iyoga yam. Sisoloko sisenza izinto ezifana nesonka esicaba kunye nesalsa. Siyohlala phandle okanye sibukele iindaba sothuke.
MC: Ngo8 sihlala sibukele uthotho. Ndiyakuthanda ukuziphakela ukubukela. Bendikwazi ukubukela iziqendu ezili-12 zilandelelana. Kate akenzi njalo. Zimbini ubukhulu bakhe phambi kokuba athi, “Masiyigcinele ingomso.” Ndiyayithanda i-sci-fi. Sobabini siyayithanda iThiyetha yoMsebenzi woBugcisa. Emva koko sibukele uRachel Maddow, esine-DVR'd kuyo yonke iveki. Sithetha malunga nokuba ikhonkco elincinci legolide entanyeni yakhe liya kubonakala lihle kuRakeli, okanye amacici amancinci amancinci. Ukuba unxibe ibhatyi yevelvet sithi, “Owu, kumele ukuba kukho into ebalulekileyo eyenzekayo.” KP: Siyamthanda uRachel. Undenza ndive umntu obona izinto ngalendlela ndizibona ngayo. Ndiyakuthanda ukubukela amaxwebhu omculo - "iLaurel Canyon" yayilungile kakhulu; UMonica akanayo. Andikuthandi ukothusa, ukuleqa imoto okanye imincili. Sobabini sithanda iidrama zembali kunye nantoni na yesiNgesi. Siyamthanda "Isithsaba" kunye "noKumkanikazi," kunye noJane Austen.
MC: Ngo-10 singena kumatshini wexesha le-tub eshushu imizuzu engama-30. Siyikrazula ukuya kuthi ga kwi-104 degrees, sifumane idiphu eshushu yaseJapan kwaye sithethe ngomhla wethu. ULoki ubaleka ekhonkotha njengoCujo. UKate ujonga iinkwenkwezi nenyanga kwaye uthatha imifanekiso eyi-100, ekufuneka ndiyicime efowunini yakhe kuba wayisebenzisa yonke. isithuba. Ngo 11 sisebhedini. Ndiza kufunda i-sci-fi eyoyikekayo ukuze ndingabi namvakalelo. UKate ufunda incwadi yoncwadi aze alale emva komhlathi omnye kuba iyadika. I-KP: "Iholo yeNgcuka" ifana nepilisi yokulala.
