Laryngitis

I've have laryngitis most of this week. It's very frustrating to not be able to speak loud (or at all). It is reminding me that I should really work on sign language with Emily (and Tim). My inability to forget things stands me in good stead, but it's no help when Tim or Emily can't remember the sign I am making.
I can finger-spell with Tim, but obviously not with Emily.

Finger spelling?

A notepad might be more reliable.

Tim is really good at spelling in his head. *I*'m the limiting factor there. If you are good at it, finger-spelling is faster than writing, and real sign language is faster still.

But I have to admit, I was writing a lot last week also.

Well, yeah; but you implied that Tim wasn't good at following either.

<looks again> Oh, I see; I misunderstood. Never mind.
