Ears!

I was showing my parents one of the pictures from a previous post, and upon seeing it, my mom exclaimed, "You have to explain about the ears!"

so not ears... >.>

I informed her they were not ears, they were hands. But none the less, I feel it's time I do explain the ears.

When I was a baby, I'm sure the doctor must have said, "OMG THE EA- I mean it's a beautiful baby girl!"
Ever since I was a little little kid, my ears have been... Not big per se. But they ARE perpendicular to my skull. They stick straight out.

When I was a baby, my ears would actually suction themselves to my cheek in my sleep, and my mom would have to peel them off of my face.

My parents nicknamed me mogwai when I was little.

Then, only a couple years back, I was riding on the back of my dad's scooter. It was fast, not like one of those ones you have to drive on the bike lane. No, you could ride this one in the street, among traffic. Well, it was hard to hold conversations, so I would often just listen to my ipod. I had those earbud type head phones, and one of the ear buds came loose.
Never fear, my ear is near!
My ear actually caught it, and the wind blowing against it kept it in place.It was only when we came to a stop light that it fell.

Me holding my brother :) He has the ears too.

For a while I tried to convince myself that I had elven ears, and if only they were pointed they would be awesome.

I have come to the conclusion though, that they are not elven, just perpendicular.
