Colleen, you are so eloquent in your hilarity! I’d like to hear you “wax eloquent” on some of the drudgeries of being blind/visually impaired. For example, yes, we certainly perceive smells much more acutely than most people – and this lends itself well to a “super-power-like” type of social awarenesss….but what about all of the things that we smell that we don’t want to!
Thank you for the comment! I will certainly follow up with a “Top 20 Bad Things About Being Visually Impaired” podcast if it is of interest. I think a lot of people tend to have those questions anyways….thank you for the idea!
Number 21: When I’m lazy to walk a route on my own, even though I know the way, I can turn a stranger into a personal guide easily enough, to take me to where I want to be. 😛
