Hearing the call
Added 2024-10-10 12:21:29 +0000 UTCBased on a real incident - we have now verified that while my boyfriend has a more keen hearing altogether, I'm better at picking out new, unusual individual sounds from the background noise in places like the city.

That conversation has happened in our house. Our kids still live at home, so there's 4 phones to choose from. I've lost part of my hearing, but I'm still "Eagle Eyes," as my mom nicknamed me.

Oddly the constant ring doesn't prevent me from hearing things, but I don't recommend it. Wear hearing protection when around anything over 90 db! Those little foam plugs work great, BTW.

Since this includes a LOT of the birds around here, it's a bit heartbreaking. I'm like Blue though, as my hearing has declined with age, I have to be in the same room, facing you to clearly hear what you're saying.
