    Mine’s the same way. Slept through hours of explosions in front of his window on his first New Year’s. Even sleeps through the phone ringing. Would wake up at my very first words to the person calling, though :D

    My own too-much-exposure situation: Riding my bike behind someone whose hairy butt-crack is showing. Don’t they ever notice they’ve got it out in the air?

    Been there, done that! With my students :D – 6 days ago. Summer holidays, yeah!

    I’ve been thru that a couple of times – and I’m a teacher! I’ve fared quite well with writing things down and using a text-to-speech software – ok, so the latter’s out of the question for Elly :-) I have to admit my 6th-graders treated me very well for a couple of days, and after that I simply stayed at home. You can get very creative signing :-D

    Marie Kondo “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying”. It didn’t exactly change my life, but it gave me a new perspective on stuff and it helped me save a bunch of money in preparing the move from Argentina to Germany. BTW, I really recommend a far-away, expensive move for getting rid of things :-)

    I totally agree with the post-shame concept. It starts with women wearing tights when they shouldn’t. Does no one ever look at themselves in the mirror anymore?Now, when we get to Trump, it’s a whole different story…

    I’m just moving house and went through all my stuff. I have a box full of handwritten letters from relatives and friends all over the world, and I used to write really long letters myself. I miss those days…

    My students can’t stop doing this even for one second. They’re driving us all crazy!
