Hello again... again. 

This is something I've been wondering ever since I first heard how you met.  We know (or should know) by now that you met in first grade, coloring unicorns instead of going out for recess.  But I was wondering...  How did that form into a lifelong best friendship?  Can you recall what your first conversations were about?  Did you make each other laugh right away?

The closest I've come to a "lifelong" friendship is with my best friend Kat... And our first impression story is pretty funny.  She was sitting next to me in French class our freshman year of high school, which is cool, except that she was sitting on my right side and that's the side I can't hear on.  One day, about three weeks into the school year, I had a book on my desk (The Phantom Tollbooth*) and we went on our lunch break.  When I came back, it was gone.  Kat was the only other person back from lunch yet and she started helping me try to find it.  We'd never said anything to each other before and suddenly there we were, joking about borrowing books, our French teacher, etc.  The book was soon found (on the teacher's desk - it had fallen) and the rest is history!  We've been close ever since.

She told me later that she'd been trying to talk to me before that, and she thought I was ignoring her, which made me feel bad!  When I explained my deafness, she felt bad.  But, in the end, it's just amusing.  :)





*I never finished it anyway!
