Dark Humor

So this is my conversation with my fiance - Jarrett. The first part sounds a bit inappropriate because he wanted to shame me into not recording our conversation (which was actually through Skype). The rest of the conversation is a little dark now that I look back on it. I now realize we've gotten too used to dealing with tense subjects. I distinctly remember Jarrett telling me at some point that the way to stay sane out in the battlefield was through dark humor. But I realize this might be too dark of a subject, so I might delete this post once the class is over. However, I think it did a good job of taking us through the speaking dynamics.


Also, there's a reference to Tim :).

Hi Linda! Here are my reactions to your conversation:

Energy - Your energy was high for most of the conversation. I guess when you are so connected to someone, it is normal to always be in high gear.

Pace - Your pace was normal

Tone - Tone was pretty appropriate for the conversation - you actually sounded very intrigued and surprised at times with some of his responses. Your tone I would describe as genuinely interested

Pitch - Medium pitch, not too high, not too low, just right
