That's not an extraordinary feat for most people, but considering I've been going to the clinic for seventeen weeks now and I've never said anything more than "Hello," I'm fairly proud of myself. My nerves tried to get the best of me (something I paid for, as injections in a tense arm hurt more) but I kept talking. And blushing. I'm positive my face was red. But hey, baby steps.
Update 01/12/11:
I had an appointment with my ENT this morning. Anyone who knows me knows I have great issues with my allergies beacuse I am, as Dr. Visor puts it, allergic to the planet. With massive allergies come massive sinus troubles, so I see Dr. Visor fairly regularly, and have been since (I believe) late 2007. Dr. Visor is a very friendly man who clearly genuinely cares about his patients, and as often as I see him, he has gotten to know me fairly well in the sense that he knows what to expect from me health-wise and personality-wise. On more than one occasion, he has mentioned how quiet I am. Today, however, he smiled and said, "You're being more talkative than usual. I like that."
I like that too.
