She had come to the conclusion that you could tell a lot about a
person by their ears. The way they stuck out and the size of the
earlobes could give you wonderful insights into the person. Of

make out exactly what the yelling was about. That was exactly
why she had put them on. She knew her mom would enter her
room at any minute, and she could pretend that she hadn't heard
any of the previous yelling.
