Maybe I DO need hearing aids...
Thursday, Oct. 02, 2003, 12:54 p.m.
So, my friend and I were talking on the phone a bit ago. Since I was doing monkey work (formatting an Excel spreadsheet, if you really want to know) I was talking to her while I was doing that.
Me: *giggles madly* I know you said "My hands are cold," but what I heard was: "My heads are cold".
Liz: I think you need hearing aids.
Me: I thought we already discussed that and decided that it's a pretty likely thing.
Liz: You know what? I’m going to tell Anthony to get you a Miracle Ear for Christmas. And not just one, either. He needs to get you 4 or 5 because you KNOW you lose everything. And when you lose one, you won’t be able to hear. You’ll go, “Where’s my hearing aid?” And he’ll say, “It’s in the bathroom.” And you’ll ask “What? It’s in the bedroom?” and go looking for it. Then you'll get frustrated cuz you can't find it and Anthony will go to get it for you, in the bathroom instead of the bedroom and find it right away.
Me: That is not what would happen! Ok, so maybe it is! But you better not tell Anthony to get me a Miracle Ear for Christmas!
The funny thing is, while this conversation was going on, all I could think about was Douglas Adams' character Zaphod Beeblebrox, when he first comes into the book and it talks about him casually laying two of his arms across the back of a couch, while the third... did something (picked his teeth? waved?) and his two heads did something else. And I was picturing my imaginary Zaphod Beeblebrox (someday, I'm going to see the TV shows, etc.) with my best friend (suddenly with two heads) super-imposed over him... I think the last few doubs about my sanity have been wiped clean. :)
