You've seen eye candy, right? ;-)

Heard of ear candy? Only an ear geek would walk down the Halloween candy aisle at Walmart and stop to check out a bag of candy because an ear caught her eye.  Heh heh.  That was me last Friday.  I wound up buying a bag of Butterfingers instead. ;-)
I got an ear lollipop from the other Au.D. extern at clinic today.  There was a sliver of paper attached to the stick and it read "Ear's to a Happy Halloween!".  I think she said her mom & her sister (who is also an audiologist) came up with that cute greeting.  I wish I got excited for holidays like I once used to.  Halloween had been a favorite as a little kid...hello, free candy!  Ever since starting work full-time at age 22 and the line of work that I did, I started to view holidays like any other day.  Maybe if I ever have kids of my own, the kid in me will come back out to play. ;-)

I'm "Hear 4 U Always"...hoping you satisfy your sweet tooth.  And keep your ears sweet...uh, by practicing healthy hearing habits like listening to music at safe levels & wearing hearing protection if busting out the leaf blower. :-)

Only you, sis! Only you! LOL! I can totally imagine you checking out the bag of the body parts candy and contemplating whether you should get that or the Butterfingers. Hey! Don't worry. The kid in you always comes out to play when we go to Disneyland. No?! Especially on the Pooh ride! But I feel ya! I'm no longer excited about any holidays or 3-day weekends. I'll be alone on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. Bah humbug!
