I've temporarily lost my most
I've temporarily lost my most valuable asset- my voice. A nasty combination of cold weather, a sinus infection, and tons of yelling in my class have disabled my larynx. One would think I could simply post a 'do not disturb' sign on my mouth, but I CANNOT STOP TALKING. I've found another voice in this blog, but I also prefer to talk to the point of babbling. I made it through today, but it is almost impossible to teach if you can't speak. I don't think I'm going in tomorrow, but I bet the enforced silence will drive me to blogging insanity.
I had fun with Sparky's family at Thanksgiving last week. He has this pangaea-sized family that scares normal-sized families in theaters, restaurants, and tables. It was so much fun to watch the ten different conversations lobbed across the huge dining table. There were no polite conversations with the person next to you. Everyone basically found the person at the most distant point of the table to be the most fascinating conversationalist. I was expecting some kind of angst filled family that repressed everything, but they were all scary-good. The food was good, the atmosphere was good, the weather was good. There were some scary obese rabbits in poop filled cages in the garage, but that's merely evidence of teenagers in the house.
