Galapagos Islands,
گالاپاگوس شمالی شروع میشود،
and a big school of sharks.
of friends for about a week,
از دوستان مشغول غواصی بودم،
hammerhead sharks.
throwing you into the rocks
به سمت صخرهها پرتاب میکرد
for that beautiful photograph.
یک عکس زیبا بالا را بررسی کنی.
و از آن طرف بیرون آمده،
all the way through your hand,
که وقتی چیزی در دستتان فرو برود،
have a venom on them that,
زهری روی خود دارد که،
gives you horrible, painful inflammation.
باعث سوزشی وحشتناک و دردآور میشود.
in my mind at this point.
در آن شرایط نبود.
into, like, little scientists,
خود را کنار بکشم، مثل، دانشمندان کوچک،
adrenaline brain kicked in,
مغز آدرنالین پیدایش شد،
get my glove off with these in here."
نمیتوانم دستکشم را بیرون بیاورم."
coming up in front of my face.
and starts freaking out.
و شروع کرد به وحشت کردن.
have gotten into that wound already?"
وارد آن زخم شده است؟"
and very calmly explains,
و خیلی آرام توضیح داد،
down really hard over my hand,
dissipate a bit before we have to surface
این همه کوسه به سطح برویم
They don't feed when they're schooling.
وقتی در دسته هستند غذا نمیخورند.
the same books that I have.
خوانده بودند که من خوانده بودم.
with sea urchin spines,
در دستتان فرو رفته است،
from any medical help,
is, unfortunately, cook your hand.
این است که دستتان را بپزید.
as hot as you can stand,
که میتوانید تحمل کنید،
absolutely insane.
چیزی تا جنون مطلق باقی نمانده.
for several weeks after that,
بعد از آن خیلی خوب کار نمیکرد،
fine motor skills returned.
stiff and painful for weeks
که برای هفتهها سفت و دردناک باقی ماند
a tip of the urchin spine
"You know, we should get this out.
باید این را بیرون بیاوریم.
for a few weeks out on a Monday.
چند هفته بعد هماهنگ کردیم.
in a horseback riding accident.
facing six weeks on the couch,
خانه نشینی مواجه بودیم،
if it hadn't been for my friends.
قطعا دیوانه شده بودم.
at my house every night for weeks.
خود بخود مهمانی برگزار میشد.
hard to sustain over the long term,
در دراز مدت سخت باقی میماند،
to just one friend,
in the evenings --
during this period of convalescence.
او را خیلی بهتر بشناسم.
pronounced well enough
and drove up into the mountains
و تا کوهستان رانندگی کردیم
Just the opposite, in fact.
نه. در واقع، کاملا برعکس.
to that marvelous introvert
would have approached me
than needing a walker
جذابتر از این نمیکند که با واکر
a funny little epilogue.
با یک خاتمه کوچک بامزه.
I could reschedule that surgery,
میتوانستم آن عمل را دوباره هماهنگ کنم،
from all the bones in your body --
استخوانهای بدنتان جارو میکند --
that you happen to have lodged
warm-blooded-mammal brain,
that that confers.
ماوراء طبیعی که اعطا میکند.
is one of the things
یکی از چیزهایی است
درباره من دوست دارد.
