What did you say redux
The wife points out that as long as I’m missing some of my hearing, the exclamation “what?!?” should not be used to indicate surprise. “My goodness gracious” or “oh my” will cause less confusion.
Although I suppose, I could substitute “why yes please, I’ll have a glass of wine” for either of those two phrases as well…

What?
Now where’s my wine?
Kate knows when I’m not listening. I don’t know how she does it. The other day I was talking to her, and she exclaimed “i’m doing what you do”. Turns out she wasn’t listening to me…
It must be noted though, it’s easy to talk to each other from one end of our shoe box (house)to the other so I don’t usually have an excuse. BTW 24601, if you miss your lack of hearing when it returns, you can always buy about 100 ear buds of e-bay for about $5 (we did).
