    How would one sign "The House That Jack Built" in ASL?

    I see what you're saying, but I think that the relationships are pretty clearly conveyed through body language in ASL. You use the "inflections" of your body language to create the relationships between the objects in your story. Unlike in English, where you just stand there and say it, ASL...

    depression

    There's no such thing as a "happy pill." Lexapro, Prozac, etc. they don't work that way. And you can't just take two and feel all better. I take Lexapro, and my son takes Prozac. I only sought treatment after watching HIM suffer, and realizing that I needed to do something to help him before...

    depression

    It shouldn't make you sleepy...I imagine it depends on what you're taking, and what kind of depression you have - depression, bi-polar, whatever... I take Lexapro and it doesn't affect my sleep cycles. HOWEVER, I do also take Ambien because for the last year, I've had trouble sleeping due to...

    What makes u feel comfortable?

    Yes...he's learning sign...what do you think? LOL Actually, that was just a coincidence. Happens to be a recent pic that my son took, and I like it. That's Festus. I have two other greyhounds and three cats as well. (All of which make me comfortable.)

    Hello, I KNOW SIGN LANGUAGE...AAAHHHH!

    I'll just add this as an aside...we "greyhound people" have a subculture as well. If we see someone with greyhound decals, greyhound clothing, or AHHHHH A GREYHOUND, we run to chat with them. We stalk them. We follow them around corners and slip notes under their windshield wipers. We yell, I...

    Hello, I KNOW SIGN LANGUAGE...AAAHHHH!

    When I was in college and learning sign, a friend and I were in a restaurant signing. (She's an interpreter.) I was practicing by telling her jokes that our teacher (Deaf) had told us. We were laughing and having a great time. Two Deaf people came over to the table, said they were watching us...

    depression

    You said it yourself, you can't just snap out of it a depression. There are a lot of stigmas attached to medication, but after having dealt with depression for 34 years without it, I can tell you, life's a whole helluva lot better WITH it. I still get depressed, but the valleys aren't as deep...

    Hi from Minnesota

    The dogs actually love winter! THey do get cold standing around outside in low temps, but who doesn't? We don't do a lot of that, anyway. They love playing at the dog park in the snow, and wear coats when we go for walks. We run together in the winter though, and we ALL get hot. I'd love to...

    Legally Separated

    Yep, you have to be divorced. Legal separation isn't usually necessary except if there are legal issues like insurance, or whatever that call for it. You don't have to be legally separated in order to get divorced.

    What makes u feel comfortable?

    Running makes me feel better, as does weeding the gardens, but I don't know that "comfortable" is the word for that... Mashed potatoes...big comfort food. Reading David Sedaris. Hugging the animals and/or the kids. Talking to my good friends/sisters.

    How often do you rearrangement your furniture at your home?

    When I was a kid, rearranging furniture was it's own thing...my older sister and I would make graphs, little furniture...very scientific about it all. (Of course, then it was important that each square foot of the room was accounted for and parceled out completely fairly...LOL) Now...I RARELY...

    Goodbye, Gilligan.

    So bizarre to think of him being 70. He just sort of stayed in my mind as forever young...guess he can be now.
