Yoda Speaks for Me

The other morning, my husband and I were having a very important discussion about current events or maybe it was the grocery list. I began to make this articulate point about the pathetic state of our Congress or how we should be eating less pork, and my brain decided to take a mini sabbatical and see what my mouth could do on its own. My mouth freaked. My husband said, "Did you just talk like Yoda?" I'm not sure what was more surprising to me, that I could speak like Yoda (which is kind of cool) or that my husband knew who Yoda was. This is a man who usually doesn't know Star Trek from Star Wars, from A Star is Born. I smiled, "Yoda, know you?" "Of course, he was that funny, furry, orange alien from the planet Ork," he said with pride. I just couldn't burst his bubble (I wouldn't know where to begin) ... someday ... find out he will.
