...and I was reading The Lord of the Rings aloud.
The worst part is that it was a Tom Bombadil section and he was singing nonsensical rhymes and songs. I've sweat through my shirt and every email I've gotten in the past hour, I'm like, "This is it. This is how I lose my job in a pandemic: by reading The Lord of the Rings."
I'm so fucking embarrassed. Please laugh at me, then tell me it's not a big deal.
EDIT: I posted this on r/TIFU —provides context on why I was reading aloud, etc. Basically, I've begun reading aloud to both work on my enunciation/speed of speaking and, since I've been isolated during this pandemic, selfishly need to hear my own voice.
