Blowing Raspberries

April 2, Ottawa - Spring has finally arrived in Ottawa with bright sunlight over the past week, but huge mounds of snow remain. For me this is my first experience with so much sunlight, and I am not impressed. It is too bright. I am busy looking here and there, when suddenly blinding white light assails my eyes, and I have to look away, and blink. I like the warmer weather though.

Also for the past 3 months I have been blowing raspberries. This is a handy method to eject superfluous saliva accumulated in my mouth. I jut out my tongue and blow making a loud noise. This is often the first sound I make when I wake up.

But when someone else makes it, I am a bit surprised, since I dont recollect having taught my technique to anyone. But then I have to laugh at them, since they obviously are still beginners.
