Heh. Yeah. Learning lines for a play is the easiy part.
The tough part is how to handle things when you or someone else doesn't remember their lines. And don't let them fool you -- pros screw things up horribly with alarming regularity.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

Kathy, I never had luck with no-fogs. I suspect you have to treat them with something to get continued no-fog. Of course, this was a decade ago, so.. I usually just slimed my goggles each swim with vaseline.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I once lapsed on the word headphones and came up with "ear goggles".
I am currently of the opinion that this approach describes the entire history of the development of the Chinese language.

That works? Cool!

Ear goggles always reminds me of my granmother after her stroke. She could understand everybody, but the part of the brain that connected her thoughts to her words was gone, so she mostly she communicated by saying "Yes, yes, yes." or "No, no, no." until someone figured out what she wanted. One night they were trying to out her to bed without giving her a shot of brandy. (Her Dr. suggested sleep aid.) She grew more agitated and they couldn't figure out what was up and the yeses and nos were flying. Finally she blurted out "Bootleggers!" and my aunt realized that she had forgotten her brandy.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
My memory used to be scary good, and everything was kept in my head. Now that my brain's foggier, I've never developed the organizational skills to cope with not remembering everything.
Sue is me.
I spent the other day in class trying to remember To Kill a Mockingbird. It was like something out of a game show: Gregory Peck in a movie. Harper Lee. The South. Atticus Finch. Couldn't remember the title.
I can't remember words for shit. And now things are worse because I have too much to remember.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm too filled with Squee to analyze jack.
You don't need to analyze Jack. Just mix it with Coke.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I lose words in the middle of conversations a lot. My dad does as well. It's very annoying, I'm sure.
I am officially on vacation.
Woot!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Very good point.
Except for the part where I have to be on my way to San Jose at 6:30 tomorrow morning, so jack will have to wait until tomorrow.
Cass, you have Jack, or Jose, or something, right?
