When Being Articulate On Paper Just Isn't Enough...
Me: (trying to explain at how I fail at using bookmarks) ...and my bookmark was right there on the table beside me and when I got to the page I wanted to be-
Bro: You make goals for yourself for how many pages you read in a sitting?
Me: No, I just meant, like, when I got to the page I did when I finished my chocolate milk. Um, I mean... like, when I was finished with it... (trying to explain)
Bro: And you call yourself an author.
Me: Hey, I never call myself articulate out loud.
Bro: So... are you articulate in loud then?
Me: Wow... you are such an intelligent conversationalist.

ReplyDeleteHa! "Articulate out loud." Not one of my strengths either.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my world of tongue tangles!
ReplyDeleteThis cracked me up because I am the exact same way! I can write all day, but try to get me to talk and I've got nothing for ya:)
ReplyDeleteHaha, the conversations you have with your brother :P These always crack me up.
ReplyDeleteIs it any wonder that writers aren't always articulate out loud?
ReplyDeleteI'm certainly not an "intelligent conversationalist".
