It is undoubtedly apparent from your deliberations and discourses in this segment and throughout this congenial site that you are overflowing with masterful dialogue which those who surround you fall short of appreciating. It is hereby noted that from this point forward you are granted the privilege to articulate whatever you desire to the individuals that you deign worthy at any moment that you find opportune. Happy Speaking.

Uh... was that supposed to be articulate?

I think verbose may be a better description.

I really don't know what to make of this ludacris "statement"of yours. im trying to be dan bikav zechus, but this sounds rude and offensive.

again, wow, that was so rude. do you feel the need to be rude?
why?
did someone hurt your feelings and now you wish to do the same to someone else?
do you feel the need to demean?
do you need to talk this over with someone?
maybe you should!

Aish - can you explain exactly what you found so offensive about that post? personally, I thought she was trying to be funny. BUt now looking at it from your point, its very possible that this statement of yours could have upset her: "wow, I feel like a genius! I can speak english again! no thats not baby/toddler/preschool negotiation/conversation"
Again, I have no idea. just speculating.

after I heard her even I was articulate for a few days. that really rubbed off on me! my hubby looked at me in surprise like "is this the girl I once dated? hi nice to meet you, its been a number of years, nice to have you back, let me listen to your well thought out, intelligent and highly ARTICULATE knowledge you impart to me now".
wow, I feel like a genius! I can speak english again! no thats not baby/toddler/preschool negotiation/conversation

Translation to English for those of us like me whose daily vocabulary consists of words of one syllable like 'Eat your Food', 'Go To Bed', 'Get on The Bus':
We see from your posts here that you have a lot to say and no one around you is mature enough to listen to it. So: permission granted to speak whatever you want to whomever you want. We are here to listen.

Sorry if this was offensive or unclear, my brain has been addled from lack of sleep and pregnancies.

Did anyone ever read Jenny McCarthy's book on pregnancy and childbirth? (If I offended you by naming this book - sorry) It's hysterical LOL She writes about her experience going through all the changes when giving birth - losing your memory.... I think every (pregnant) mom should read it.
And yes - pregnancy definitely addled (is that a word?) my brain!! But I think many moms feel it more bec. we're home with the kids. Those moms that are out there in the work force get to stretch their brain cells and engage in adult conversation.
