She had three boys playing on the playscape. I was there with my three girls. They were the only kids there. The noise was deafening.
She turned to me. "I wish I had one of these things at home, like, in a separate room. A room I could seal off."
"So they would suffocate?"
"So I couldn't hear them."
"Oh."
Silence.
"You're in a dark place, aren't you?"
Been there-- I don't recommend staying in The Dark Place for too long. Besides, I might need it again soon, and you have to share.
As a side note, I wanna read that lady's blog, too! She's pretty quick. Good thing she didn't freak out on you, though.
