Ok, so yesterday Doc Mohan at crescent internal medecine tells me: “No talking for 3 Days! not even a whisper! your voicebox is ALL inflamed and you may need steroids!” . I whisper “O. ..” but I am cut off as she commands: “NOT EVEN a WHISPER!”. I have been trying to see the deeper lessons in this no talking thing. I am quiet all the time, so I am very aware of what is I am trying to communicate, because then I have to write it to people. I posted about that yesterday. Thats been pretty cool. Other things I’ve learned:
- I sing to music without really thinking about it, I have to keep remembering not to!
- I thank people without thinking about it, so I am trying to stop, and I give people these funny, big eye looks and wave really fast
- I am confusing having thought something with having said it.
That last one is the weird one. I am so IN MY HEAD right now, that it feels like I am talking when I IM, e-mail etc.. only when I am out in public is it painfully obvious that I have no voice. I am the worlds worst mime and suck at charades, no one knows wtf my hand waving means.. O well… only one more day.
