A couple weeks ago, I did a basic introduction to my vent and assorted accouterments for my work colleagues. The idea was to give them enough information so they would know what to do if my tube disconnected in the middle of a meeting or how to silence me should they get annoyed with my blather. Everyone was very attentive and asked good questions, but it reminded me that the everyday aspects of my life–the chair, the tubes, the personal bodyguard–must seem really strange to the typical observer. I mean, how many people do you see in your office who look like me?
It also got me thinking about a more advanced-level course that covers topics such as how to feed me Pringles and how to intervene when I start totally geeking out.
Does the correct response to you geeking out involve smacking you about the face? That could be fun.
