Well, at least she still has her sense of humor. (This post Title is inspired by a Nana quote today.)
I'm a busy gal, so I gotta make this short. I went in to work today, Saturday, and spent the first 2 hours just fixing my calendar. On several Thursdays this semester, I will have 1:15 minutes of Language class, to be followed by 4 hours of Linguistics class. I'm hoping they help me figure out why they think it's best to teach the phonetically challenged that "ex" sounds like /e/g/s/., "ax" sounds like /a/k/s/ I can buy, but /e/g/s/? And, why I have to spend time trying to convince them that /aw/ and /o/ are completely different sounds, when everyone who thinks the sky is blue - can't tell the difference.
Good night! I'll take my petty phoneme problems to bed tonight. Until then, I'll be reading Life after Life. Pretty good so far.
