In Brief

[copied from dland]

It's late! After 8:00! And I haven't written yet!

So. Another day of successful testing at school followed by utter lack of motivation to do anything else. We had heat today, or, more precisely, we did not have the absence of heat. We still can't tell if heat ever comes out of the registers. But it was 70+ today, as opposed to about 56 yesterday, so we'll take what we can get.

The big news, of course, is that my hearing aids are in. (Literally.) The word of the day is ADJUSTMENT. For one, they need some adjustment already -- I made appointments for each of the next two Wednesdays -- and I need to do some adjusting of my own. My own voice is quite loud and has a mechanical quality to it, as if I'm listening to myself on a radio. (Wait. Aren't I listening to myself on a radio? Why yes, yes I am. So that's explained, I guess.) Anyway, it takes getting used to.

What was very good was that I put on headphones and listened to some music and it sounded really, really great. Which was one of my goals in getting this kind of hearing aid, so I can check that off on my list.

Okay, more tomorrow when it's not so late!
