authentic, I didn't realize that lots of Deafies have been leaving CA. which part of CA were you speaking of?
For me, It seems to me that I haven't socialize with hearing people because I ve been busy with my family( hearing kids), hearing relatives and hanging out with Deaf friends and (hearing) Interpreters.
However, I do chat with hearing people at my work all the time either body language or write the pads, or instant messager (its for work computer). I have close two hearing friends here but only went out for baby showers or bridal showers or celebration with them. I haven't gone out with them on the regular days. Its OK though!
