    I was joking with my wife tonight, because I am somewhat quite most of the time, (especially when I am programming) I just ignore people...

    Anyhow, it popped into my head, while she was standing near me, to have a challenge for myself to NOT SPEAK for an entire week.

    Even at work, since I just program/develop, I will try and not talk for 1 week.

    Do you think you could achieve this?  I think I could do it.  I told her I can write things down to her, but I wont speak.  She said, Do you want me to leave this house?  I am not going to live with a monk.. 

    I am going to think about this for a few days, but it just popped in my head a few minutes ago.
    My wife is not happy with it.    I personally think it would be fun.

    I am sure people will be trying to make me talk that know me well.

    I'll let you know if I do decide to do this challenge.  I just think it would be an interesting story to tell my grandchildren one day.

    I think if you pull that off, it would be really cool. It would be interesting to find other ways of communicating for a week. Good luck if you decide to try it!

    Your wife might not like the idea, but little Julia will NEVER let you get away with it!

    I think I would be able to do it if I didn't have to regularly interact with clients. Grandted most of the communication is via email, but there are a few who prefer to call or come by my office. If it wasn't for them, though, I don't think I would have any issues.
