Well I've already programmed in a countdown message that says, "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!" And Kat's all ready with hers, so we've just got to get through these last few minutes and then we'll see if our voices still work!!!
Our boss, Jon, suggested we may discover a new voice problem, the opposite of vocal abuse, vocal neglect! I'm starting to wonder.....
Matthew said this morning that he didn't want me to call him when I can speak again, he wants to wait until we're both home then he can see it, and I quote; "Live!" I don't know exactly what I'm going to say to him first, but I've a feeling it'll be something mushy so I won't post it on here!
The last day of work is pretty quiet so Kat and I have been having some nice little chats using our communicators, and speaking with Jon in the office. Although there's been a lot of non-verbal communication in the form of minimal signing, facial expressions and quite possibly some telepathy! Somebody remarked at lunch today that our facial expressions had gotten more exaggerated.
The only really stressful thing to happen today has been that somebody called the office first thing, trying to pass a call on, and got impatient with me as I hadn't managed to get my message accross fast enough, hung up on me and took a message, which they then rang back to quote at me without waiting for a reply! I felt VERY hurt at this, and like they were basically using me as an extended answerphone. Then in the afternoon, somebody else rang the office, I answered the phone, and as soon as they heard my little electronic voice, they hung up! I don't even know who it was!!! Bruce called yesterday and was VERY patient with me, although I think he still finds this all very funny as he kept laughing. Although this does not upset me!
Half an hour to go!
