They're going to be on a different schedule

rather than my normal Thursday, Friday and Saturday

And by the way, can we again just discuss Saturday,

because what a sign, the day we clean stuff.

we go shopping and then go out and party, *but*

Yeah. My understanding, that is. Because really,

For the last ten minutes, maybe? I've had absolutely no clue.

Going to a pub or a bar is really great, and I love dancing,

but I really can't understand without lip-reading, and maybe a little bit of sign.

So, somewhere with good lighting is pretty much vitally important.

If you could learn just a few signs, that would be really helpful for me.

When I follow something that you were just saying with a completely unrelated story,

and I speak very loudly, and with a lot of emphasis for a *very* long time!

I didn't really mean to talk over you, or, to act like I wasn't listening to what you were saying,

it's just that literally I wasn't listening to what you were saying and I could not understand what you were saying,

and now I don't really want to be left alone, and isolated from this conversation, because I am terrified of the isolation of deafness,

OK? So here is a story that vaguely relates; please just nod.

Even if it's just holding your hand over your mouth, and saying: "Can you hear me now?"

It's like if someone's on crutches and you take their crutch away from them - Hah!

Please feel free to complain about how really loud and noisy it is in here,

It's totally fine! It's OK. You're not offending me.

My hearing can exist in a completely separate realm to yours; it's OK.

to not be able to use one of your senses properly.

You wish that you had really selective hearing, and you could choose when to turn it off.

You are *not* wishing that you were left entirely on your own, unable to hear anything,

and you have absolutely no choice in the matter.

*Please* tell me any and all juicy gossip!

I LOVE a good gossip, but you know I can't overhear, and then jump into your conversation,

Tap me on the shoulder and say: "Hey! Did you know about this?"

I'm like- *gasp* I did not! Tell me more.

I am an awful gossip. I should probably work on that, but-

Using your phone to communicate with me is totally fine!

In fact, it's a really great idea. Yes please! Do that more.

If you've already said it twice, and I still don't understand, then go ahead -
