1) I do have to think about it, when I'm eating, to sit like an actual grown-up and not with one leg tucked up, or kneeling on a chair. On my sofa, I had to move the cushion at the back because this way, it's more comfortable to curl up on and I can tuck my legs all the way on the seat without having to jostle birdsflying or move the pile of stuff next to me.

7) My little brother was the same. He was pretty deaf especially in one ear, and now it's not really noticeable at all.
