So, do you wanna know what I did on my own for the past few days?
It was kinda wierd to be all alone after the kids went to bed last night. I was reading before I went to bed and suddenly had the wierd idea to read outloud. To myself. With an Australian accent. I read a whole page with what I imagined sounded like an authentic Aussie fresh from the Outback. Then I switched to an English accent. I think I sounded like a little British nanny. I have to say I don’t think I did too bad with my accents, probably from watching plenty of episodes of “Australian Express” when I was little, and having a British grandmother.
Then I realized that I would never have been doing this if Jeremy were home, so I clammed up and continued in silence. 🙂
We ate leftovers, slept in (till almost 8am!), and I actually had to tend the coal stove – which I never do normally. I worked on my quilt a bit more, and really am almost done now.
Tonight I’ll drive out to Syracuse to pick Jeremy up again. It’s probably a good thing he was only gone 2 days! 🙂
I LOVE ACCENTS!!!!!!!!!My family does them all the time!!
This is just an odd practice to me! I’m probably going to have to give in and try it myself some time.
Do I dare admit?…. I’ve read out loud to myself before too…with different accents. *blushing* But it was definitely fun!!!! lol
That is funny!! I’m not good at doing different accents! Maybe I need to practise! 🙂
Ha ha! I catch myself doing strange things–and staying up very late–when my husband is away, too.
That is so funny Trina! Amazing what ideas one comes up with when alone 🙂
Hee!Hee! At least it wasn’t in front of a mirror 🙂 We’d have to be REALLY worried then!
Hahaha! Too funny! 😀
That is hilarious!
