Found my first jumping spider of the year! I gave her some water and she was very grateful.

I am very grateful to all the conversation analysts and interactional sociolinguists who have published just enough papers on singing in interaction for me to cite, but stopped short of writing an entire book on the subject so that I could have that privilege
