On counting. A conversation with Jane and Maren.

So, which is the longest, the smallest and which is in the middle? How did you know?

Cuz I counted with my eyes.

You can see by the amounts.

But I counted with my brain.

It's counting out loud. You can hear but nobody else can.

I'm telling myself in the brain.

I'm not whispering or shouting, I'm just thinking it.
