More about ears.

When I was in junior high, my elf ear was a little bit of a taboo subject. I was super shy, and so it made for some awkward times when other students would talk to me ever, let alone about my ear.

Fellow student: "Why do you have pointy ears? Are you an elf?"

Courtney: "I used to be."

Fellow Student: "Really?!"

Courtney: "Yeah, lived at the North Pole and everything, but I wasn't good at building toys, so Santa got real mad and kicked me out one day but not before cutting the tip off one of my ears first."

Fellow Student:
