Hey....I'm wondering if there are anyone here living in Houston, TX? I'd like to meet other deaf people in Houston.
A bit about myself....I'm 42, and deaf since birth (from Usher's Syndrome). I grew up in Tulsa, OK and Jefferson County, Colorado. I went to NTID/RIT (SVP 83) but ended up gradudating from Colorado State University with a BS in Computer Science. After living in Colorado for 30 years, my husband and I got sick of snow, dry climiate and yellow lands (NOTHING grows in Colorado except prarie grass, sunflowers and weeds, LOTS of weeds) and decided to move to Houston. So here we are....but there's a little problem: we don't know many people in Houston. Since we work at home, we don't get to meet many people (you don't realize how much socializing you get from work until you start working for yourself at home) and would like to meet some people.
My husband is hearing but can sign some. We have no kids (unless you count ones that wear fur suits and use litter boxes...then we got 3 of 'em ) Our interests....let's see: we love food (both eating out and cooking), books, TV shows like "Top Chef", "Project Runaway", "Heroes" and "Battlestar Galactica", beaches, New Orleans, et cetera. He's also really into music (well, he *is* a hearie, ya know?). I do jewelry making, puzzles, postcard collecting.
