Today, this morning, when I took the bus into town and on the way to the library - and this was just before the driver asked if there were any library stops when nobody answered - I couldn't say a word. So, I pulled the wire thing to let him know that there was one. He asked, "Library?" and I couldn't speak, I nodded without thinking. He asked again, while seeming a little angry to me, and I pushed out the words "Yes, please!" He then said he'd be dropping me close by across the street instead of right next to the library building because he had to catch another route. No more words wouldn't come out of my mouth. Although, I did manage to say "Thank you" as I got off the bus. Apparently, it's a little bit easier for me to talk when closer to somebody than a few feet away. I hate having to speak up.
