Could buy an ASL book... I (hearing) grew up referring to The Joy of Signing once in a while.

I learned from the book The Joy of Signing when I was a kid. Amazon has a used version for $9.91. I learned it on my own just because I thought it was interesting. I didn’t even have anyone else to talk to. I had pretty much forgotten all about it when I started working with the deaf lady many years later and it all came back. You’ll understand why when you start learning. The signs just make sense.

Also, if it makes you feel any better the deaf lady I worked with was a riot and being deaf didn’t bother her in the slightest. I imagine there were difficulties she faced, but we chatted all the time at work and used to go to lunch together most days. I never once saw it slow her down.
