Ready for this confession?
I took 4 yrs of debate when I was in highschool and was just points away (tournament points) from lettering in it. Geeky? Yeah...lol. But, at that time I was on the law degree track and that was a major bonus on my transcripts. Why didn't I letter? My teacher got pregnant and our substitute was not allowed to enter us into tournaments - talk about bummed!
Now, that will be 10 yrs ago next yr (I graduated in 1999). And, while I was good at debate and have no problem speaking in front of a crowd. I find it harder to find my topics. Especially now that I have so many topics to choose from :)

Please pardon me for this brief interruption in thought....
I JUST HAD AN AH-HA MOMENT!
I think I have my signature speech topic ;)

Ok...back to the regularly scheduled post...
My biggest issue besides organizing my thoughts, is trying to figure out what people need/want to know. To me, my knowledge is "common knowledge". Its hard to go back to a place where I didn't know anything and know what someone would need to know.
I think this comes back to Julie's post from this week about One being the Lonliest Number. Perhaps I need someone with absolutely NO IDEA about what I do that can ask me questions to get the juices flowing. That person used to be Marilyn, but I never kept track of everything I taught her (although, I bet she did)...and now she is a regular TECHNO MAMA.
