That is so cool Cashmere. Just like any language I have forgotten most of the signing I knew as a kid from lack of use. When I see my friend's parents I fall to the old standby of speaking slowly and mouthing well mixed with a few signs. They are a whole lot better at reading lips than I am at signing, but they are like virtual parents to me and always praise my attempts.
Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap you.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That is very cool, Cashmere!

Hey Perky! How's the moving going? A place for everything and everything in its place?

Hahahahaha.
I have most of the furniture in it's intended place, but I have unpacked about 4 out of 50 million boxes.
Everything got here safely though, so that is good.

DH#1 was a freak about getting unpacked instantly and putting all the stuff where it should go immediately upon arrival. We moved a lot. He was a super neat freak. I've been in this house 6 years and really not quite unpacked yet. It could be that my slovenly procrastinating ways could be in part rebelling still.

Laura is me. Or I am Laura.
Except for not living in Florida, having kids, or being married to the very large man.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
I believe I still have boxes in the basement. I know I have some in the upstairs closet. There's no room to put them away since they're mostly books and we'll never have enough bookshelves.
Go Owen! That's so exciting, Cashmere.
I have work to finish so I can play tomorrow. Urgh.
eta: Kara and Leif just sank in. That would be something else.

Ah Seanie my twin, you just made me laugh out loud. And with the smile on my face I'm calling it a night, because it's late my time, and kids mean early wake up.

It's very easy to get Deaf kids to shush--just turn out the lights. :)
Argh. I intended to go to bed early tonight, cause I was tired today, and I have an appointment early tomorrow, but noooo, it's already 11:30. Doh.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I also meant to get to bed early. I've been exhausted, and I've got to teach early tomorrow. Also, I just got my course evaluations from last semester back, and they were pretty bad, so I'm feeling kind of bad about not having prepared as much for this class as I probably should have. (My evaluations from last year, then only thing I was constantly ranked well on was "Instructor is available and helpful during office hours." For the other stuff, like "Instructor answers questions completely" and "Instruction explains material clearly," all three of my classes were pretty evenly split between "strongly agree" and "strongly disagree," with only a few in the middle. Which is puzzling me, a bit, and also making me a bit worried about what I should do differently so that there won't be so many people who strongly disagree.)
