Listening to Talk Radio

My speech therapist recommended I listen to a local radio station as it has the weather report every ten minutes as I know what they’re talking about and have a better chance of recognizing words. I try to listen to everything, not just the radio. Once when Paul was near a radio, I asked him to listen to it so I could confirm whether or not I correctly heard certain words.

After we stopped listening, Paul said, “I’m telling your mom on you.”

Of course, I am surprised and confused. I didn’t recall doing anything to get myself in trouble. “What? Why? What did I do?” I asked.

He said, “I’m telling her that you were listening to Rush Limbaugh.”

Unrelated to the joke and interesting coincidence — Limbaugh had a cochlear implant.

Comments

I remember when he was out for awhile because he was getting his implant. It seems to have not affected him adversely.

I don’t listen to him like I used to, but the story is intriguing and encouraging nevertheless.
