Oh, yeah, me too. I don't know if it's more shyness or politeness (maybe both working against me). Except in front of my class! But constantly projecting my voice and being animated and engaged takes so much energy. I'm glad I can manage it, but I don't think it's my natural state. :)

Ah, that's a good facepalm too! Is that whatshisname from House? Wilson? He has big hands.
