The Scratching Post
by carolynholm
Dear Mommy,
I just found out about a new kind of TV program. From Norway. It’s called Slow Television. The Norwegians call it Sakte-TV.
Love, Mia
Dear Mia,
This is the one where they just showed a train moving through the countryside in real time? For seven hours?
Love, Carolyn
Dear Mommy,
It is! And boat trips, and salmon fishing, and chopping firewood!
Love, Mia
Dear Mia,
Ahh, the Norwegians. And now you are planning to produce a Slow TV show of your own.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Mommy,
I AM!!!!! How did you guess?
Love, Mia
Dear Mia,
I’m getting good at guessing. So what, pray tell, will you be slowly showing on TV?
Love, Carolyn
Dear Mommy,
I’ll be scratching my scratching post. Until it falls apart. It should take hours.
Love, Mia
Dear Mia,
Let me know when it gets on Netflix. I wouldn’t miss this for the world.
Love, Carolyn
