Mind like a sieve

The ten-year anniversary of my tongue-piercing came and went last Thursday and I completely spaced mentioning it. I was planning to post the story I wrote about the experience, but now all I can find is my hard copy. I remember retyping the damn thing just a year or two ago, but now I don't know where I put it. It's not a bad little piece of writing, if I do say so myself. If I find it, I'll post a link.

I forgot my lunch today. Wonder what the chances are of me actually walking home to get something to eat.

I found the Rev CD I was missing. I'd misfiled it on the wrong shelf.

I'm certainly not firing on all cylinders lately. Apologies.

Note: My flist is getting out of control and as my workload is increasing, I'm finding it necessary to trim. Please don't take it personal-like. I'm sure most if not all of you are reasonable adults who realize this is not a slam on your character. I just decided to take off the people with whom I don't have much interaction either in RL or LJ. I promise I won't be hurt or whatever if you remove me, and that goes for people who still are on my flist. Really. It's not a big deal.

eh, as long as one is firing - you're just fine :)

I'd really like to hear the tale of the tongue...

Reading this reminded me of Veatch's reaction to your new tongue piercing. He had just started working at the computer center when you had it done. He didn't realize that the way you were talking was a result of the tongue piercing and instead he thought that you were deaf. OMG--I laughed at him for that.

I really did sound deaf. At the time I'd just wrapped up two semesters of sign language courses and I did sound like one of my (deaf) TAs. It's an accent that I cannot, for the life of me, replicate now.

It was very interesting, re-learning how to speak.
