well even that is cool -- maybe I didn't get it because it wasn't their
fault? 
She should have put it in some padding, but well.. that's the one who's a
long way left of right
She's going through another bout of being unable to hear. Thing is -- she
hears perfectly fine. She calls my mom all in hysterics saying she can't
hear. This isn't new... so mom runs through the entire list of things a
person might hear in their house, and yes, her mother can hear it all. "Then
you can hear, mother" No!!! No!!! Nothing is making a sound! I was talking
with Katy and she was telling me about her car and I didn't hear a word she
said! (I'm not kidding... mental illness may be serious, but it can also be
funny)
