I came here for a laugh. Now I am worried that I may be next. So far, I am blessed. My mom has had chronic hearing issues for 50 years, as did her mother. Two of my three brothers have severe hearing loss. Guessing it is probably inevitable.

I'm sorry, Lynn. I didn't mean to bring you down.
It's just I did think it was funny that, in all the situations I find myself in, and of all the sounds on the earth, and all the humans on the earth, the only sound of any consequence I can't hear is my wife.
Given this newfound piece of data, one might conclude that one could SIMPLY ASK THAT ONE PERSON TO SPEAK LOUDER, or, in addition, NOT TRY TO CONVEY CRITICAL FAMILY OR SOCIAL INFORMATION WHILE STANDING IN THE UPSTAIRS BEDROOM CLOSET while I am on the main floor in the kitchen CLEANING UP MY OWN DAMN MESS, as I was gently reminded.
Alas, as any older married man might guess, it is not a viable strategy.
