The quietness was deafening

Dead quiet.That's room 31 tonight.The only sound heard is the soft rumble of the AC unit.

My roommates,there are 3 of us,are unusually quiet tonight.They must be asleep.

I know this quietness must be enjoyed and I do.

No loud music on the radio.No moaning and groaning like the Angel of death is visiting room 31.No all night ramblings of the other roommie who is 95 God love him.

The door is closed and the nightly sounds I can't hear.A blessing.

I had already leaned back in my bed thinking I would just try to go to sleep early but the quietness was deafening.

Laying here looking out the window at the black clouds rolling in I knew this was something and had to write about it.

It won't last long I bet !

Crazy

No! It can't be.Maybe it is.

Just thinking maybe I am crazy.

I've sure made some crazy choices in my life.

Big deal

Please do this
Choose words carefully
You never know
What they show

How you feel
It's no excuse
To many it's
A big deal

Silent gas attacks

Old man goes to the Doctor.
Old man:Doc I have a problem.
Doctor:What is that?
Old man:I have been having silent gas attacks lately.
Old man:I've had 3 since you came into room.
Old man:What can you do about it Doc?
Doctor:First thing we are going to do is check your hearing.
