Look At Me Now Lady!

I have met the enemy and he is us. Pogo
In second grade I was summoned by a visitor along with a few other kids, I was actually excited at first. Turns out we all went next door for speech therapy, boo. At one point the lady said “say snake through this straw, there should be a hissing sound through the straw.” I instead just blew through the straw like a genius. She says "nah, you're just blowing through it." Lol.
 

I had to sit at the dining room table saying R and some other letter over and over until they sounded right. Another time I and a bunch of other kids were rounded up driven to the health clinic and given the required immunizations for school.
 

I was born and raised in Massachusetts, so I had a Mass. accent-DUH? So, I pronounced 'figure' as "figah". I had one nun, who kept trying to get me to say "figure", but it always came out "figah". To me, they sounded the same. Today, I still figah.
