I have an activation date!  May 9.  I'm not sure I can sit still that long, but even if I get a little wiggly the date will arrive!

I wouldn't have thought I could continue to get excited but here I am.  Whoohoo!

where do we go from here?

I'm about to embark on something that I think will be life-changing.  I've spent my life traveling, and I see life as a journey, so this is just a juke to the left:   the road curves up there, and I am going in another direction. I've been hard of hearing since birth, a sensorineural hearing loss that runs through our family - my mom had it, so does my brother, an aunt, some cousins.  We all say "what?" a lot.  It's also progressive (or regressive, I guess, really) and has been getting worse throughout my life.  Fifteen years ago I began to really struggle to hear on the phone; ten years or so ago I stopped using the phone handset at all and in the last five years or so I stopped even being able to understand voice mail messages.  Without context, word comprehension is really difficult for me.

So we went online and bought tickets (it's also one of those theaters with recliners rather than tiny little theater seats, which was quite nice, though not nearly as comfortable as the recliner in our sectional at home).   Then we drove an hour.  See, we live outside a small town.  There are two theaters in town, but neither has captions (according to the websites, anyway, and I think if they had it they'd say so).  So we drove to a town that's an hour from home, but is increasingly becoming less of a town and more of an outer-ring suburb of Minneapolis. When we arrived I asked about the captioning, and it appears to be a littl
