This seems to be a reoccurring theme for me over the past couple days. Now, I can't tell you about a couple of the things I am keeping quiet about. But, there is one I can tell you about.  It is about my experience at the dentist during my root canal. Now, the root canal was not so bad. It was, however, strange to have to keep quiet for an hour and listen to people having a conversation about movies, dinner, driving in the snow and regular everyday stuff. I could not say a thing.  I wanted to say “no, they only had one kid in True Lies” and “Sade is a single person, not a group” but, no. Nothing. I could only listen like a strange voyeur as they chatted about their previous evening at home and the crazy drive in that morning.  For those of you who know me, you know I don't tend to keep quiet if I have something to say.  This was a very strange experience for me. I learned that I could do it - if forced. And I learned that sometimes you don't need to say a thing.
