I wanted to share one of my experiences where my hearing friends would forget I am deaf. One night I was staying at the hotel with a group of hearing friends. We needed a bucket of ice so I volunteered to go and get it. So out I went and grabbed a bucket. When I returned to the hotel room, the door was locked so I knocked. No answer. I knocked again and waited few minutes or so. There still was no answer. Hmm, interesting, I thought. I then banged on the door until it finally opened. There stood my friend all red-faced while others were laughing so hard. Do you know why? The fool asked me, keep in mind I am fully deaf, for the password through the closed door! DOH! :oops:

Ha....will keep that in mind next time that happens. ;) It gets annoying sometimes. But that means they did not think of me as a DEAF person which I like....they just see me as Mish. When they start talking to me too fast or hand me the phone as to make a phone call for them, I'd be like "umm hello?! I'm deaf!" :roll:

Seeing you as Mish is a good thing actually. It's better than seeing you as a deaf person and not seeing you as Mish. You know? They just have to remember. I always joke around (i'm sure you do that A LOT) when they forget. I would go.. "huh... are you talking to me? are you REALLY talking to me? please show me your hands." LOL :lol:

:lol: I can picture you saying that :lol: Once this pal handed me a phone for me to make a call, I was like oh okay and dialed the number. Started signing away at the phone while she stared at me like I was a lunatic UNTIL it finally clicked for her....some slow friend I have :roll: :lol: Maybe we should take it as a compliment when they forget we are deaf. ;)

Morse code. I'm pretty sure you could use Morse code if you can't see each other on opposite sides of the door when its shut.
