Rules: Each player of this game starts off with 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about yourself. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 10 weird habits/things/little known facts as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you need to choose 10 people to be tagged and list their names. No tagbacks.

1. I wear hearing aids at rehearsals. I should wear them more often.
2. Sometimes I wake up at 4 or 5 in the morning, eat some cookies, then go back to bed and to sleep.
3. I have far more unfinished knitting and crochet projects, than ones I've ever finished.
4. And an unfinished cross-stitch project from about 27 years ago, which has been carried through several thousand miles of moving back and forth.
5. I don't like most piano music. (And I hate most opera, but that's not a little-known fact.)
6. I speak in paragraphs - if you're on my flist but have never met me, you would nonetheless recognize me if you overheard me in a restaurant, because I talk *exactly* like I write.
7. The vision in my right eye is significantly worse than the vision in my left eye: -9 diopters (20/900) give or take .50 in any given year, in the left eye, but currently -13 diopters (20/1300) in the right eye, which seems to get worse each year.
8. When I was little, I wanted to be an astronaut. In fact, I continued wanting to be an astronaut right up until I was old enough to realize that I would have to join the military and become a pilot first (which was the case at the time).
9. I found my job as a financial analyst for the Texas Department of Insurance to be a great deal of fun, and I think there's a lot of unintentional humor in the whole idea of insurance. For that matter, I've found being an accountant to be pretty funny, too.
10. Sometimes I wish we lived more like normal people - for example, perhaps giving away 3/4 of our collection of books so that we did not have our dining room made smaller by bookshelves, our hallways made smaller by bookshelves, our basement made smaller by bookshelves. I would be willing to take the risk of not having on hand a book I suddenly wanted to read, and having to wait until a library could find it for me.

As for tagging people, I'm too lazy - those who are interested, please consider yourselves tagged, if you haven't already done this one.

What make are they?

On the devices, it says
Tribute
Sonic
Transitions

I have no idea which of those might be the make, which the model. They are an in-the-ear model, visible if one is looking for them but most people don't notice them unless I point out. Larger than an "in the canal" model, but much smaller than the behind-the-ear jobbies. 8 channels, 2 programs. TMI?
