In reply to Claudio. haha good example! I used to think the same but I've started telling myself in the chair, "This is for your health." and I start to think of it like getting a massage. It doesn't work 100%, but makes it a little easier!

Hello Jeff,
I’ve got two questions which are connected to pronunciation. You pronounce “I wanted to …” without the first “t”
The word “plenty” again there is the omission of “t”. I was taught to not omit “t” in these cases. Is my pronunciation wrong from the perspective of American English?
And would it be too much if I ask you to explain “made it home” in the sentence “They made it home after their long detentions.
Have a nice the rest of the day.
