It Hurts

How can you stop the most boring meeting in the whole world and get a group of roughly 60 people to stop talking all at once?

Hover Mom

Have you ever had the hairs on the back of your neck stand up...had your gut tell you something was not right? I had that feeling today. It is so not a good feeling...
Her words.
Spilling forth like a torrent
We are drenched
Eddies of misunderstanding
Twisting and turning
Finally...
Settling into the rhythm of
Her language
Our language
Together we conquered...
This elusive thing...
Communication.
