Paid to talk? Wow, if I could get paid to do something I do compulsively I'd be rich as Bill Gates. Once upon a time I was a trial (criminal defense) lawyer and had to learn to cut to the chase and be very careful in cross examination. I got very good at it but continue to chatter as in this post.
Time to walk the beasts and get to the charity quilting I'm doing for a fundraiser tomorrow for a family that lost their home to fire.
