a holiday tradition
dining
with
my friend
signing about the menu
trying to decide
what
might be
an appropriate
restaurant christmas feast
when
a somewhat shy
and
hesitant waitress
approached our table
clearly uncertain
as to
how to deal
with
two deaf folks
so i spoke
further
confusing her
but
it
assured her
that
one of us
fit
her definition
of
normal
i gave her
my order
now the plot thickened
how
to get my friend’s order
she decided
to write a note
which said
can you read
smiling
my friend
scribed
can you write
Love this!
Thanks for the second laugh of the morning – you also produced the first.
Gave me a good chuckle! 😄 True story, I assume?
Yes…a true story.
I believe it. My husband wears two hearing aids and he’s often had to tell people, “I’m deaf, not stupid!”
