Last night I took two of the girls out to take care of something. We were gone for all of two hours, and for some reason, towards the end of the trip, 13 year old started talking like a 60 year old woman who has been smoking for the past forty years.
I know she has a cold, but this sudden onset and escalation of what we often call "Camp voice," was a bit jarring. Partially for the reasons above (sudden onset-like really sudden-one minute to the next), and partially because she is in a choir on Thursday. a choir in which she has a solo and does harmonies on a few songs. Yikes!
I suggested, on the drive home, that perhaps she refrain from speaking for the evening, and when we arrive home she have some tea. She thought this a good idea, and all was quiet in the backseat...for seven minutes. After seven minutes she SHOUTED:
"I CAN'T STAND IT! HOW DO SHY PEOPLE DO THIS?!?!?!"
