Brain Stretch

Starting on the 18th, I'll be taking American Sign Languages classes from Arlington County. The session is relatively short, two classes a week for five weeks, but it should be enough time for me to get a flavor for it and see if I want to do more. If I like it, I'll probably continue on to part 2, which begins in March, and thereafter perhaps go to study at Gallaudet (which is the Big Leagues in deaf circles).

I have this vague idea that I might be good at sign language, and that I might enjoy being an interpreter. So this is just by way of dipping a toe in.

Besides, it's high time that I learned something new ~ my brain has been getting cobwebby from disuse. I'm also curious to find out whether my language knack will extend into this entirely different medium.
