[Matt definitely doesn't recognize the number. Does he play along? Nope.]

Who is this?

[oldladyenough]

Dr. Knowles. Uh, Tara.

[Of course now Tara is having to check every single contact in her phone to make sure one of her boys didn't change any other numbers.]

I'm sorry. Think one of my sons got a hold of my phone and randomly changed a few numbers...

[good_catholic_boy]

Attorney Matt Murdock. [He doesn't see any doctors, mostly one nurse who repairs his wounds]

No lock on your phone? [smirk emoji]

[oldladyenough]

My apologies, Mr. Murdock.

[She chuckles softly at that while replying]

Kiddos always seem to figure out a way to unlock it. [annoyed emoji]

[good_catholic_boy]

Damn kids. [smile emoji] This generation will be the next tech giants. I didn't even have a computer when I was little.

[oldladyenough]

My sentiments exactly. [smile emoji] It's a scary thought when my two year old can navigate my phone better than I can. I didn't have one either, still don't use one that often even at work I prefer to hand write things.

[good_catholic_boy]

I can't say that I am any better, but voice commands help. [Should he just admit that he's blind right off the bat?]

My handwriting is the worst, so typing is the way to go.

[oldladyenough]

Siri can be a life saver. Or really fuck things up for you. [She almost asks, but doesn't a lot of people use voice command these days it seemed.]

Seeing as you are an attorney, I can only assume your life is full of paperwork.

[good_catholic_boy]

Yes, she can. She doesn't take kindly to cussing her out, apparently. [grin emoji]

And if you are...a medical doctor? Psychologist? It must be the bane of your existence.

[oldladyenough]

She really doesn't. Hate to admit it, but it took me forever to figure out I had to actually say 'period' to have one put in.
So many run on sentences.

Pediatric surgeon. Oh, it is. But at the same time I don't terribly mind it. Am able to lock myself away in my office and take care of it all with little interruptions.

Mun had to slide the last line in. Coder/Biller by trade.

[good_catholic_boy]

Ah, the wonders of dictation.

I'm sure the people that handle medical records love you for it.

Nice! I had wanted to do that, sadly couldn't though so retail hell for me.

[oldladyenough]

You can say it. I'm a slow learner when it comes to tech. xD

Have a feeling they do. Hell, they are the ones that tend to bring me coffee.

I'm still starting out, I've been certified since 2010. This industry is hard to crack.

[good_catholic_boy]

Hey, I can be too. It took me a while to get the hang of things.

They know that a good medical record is an accurate one. [thumbs up emoji]

I can imagine, not to mention it's always changing.

[oldladyenough]

Have a feeling you've mastered it better than I have.

Exactly.

Eh, I can keep up. It's people in the field already that are skeptical of what I can do. ;)

[good_catholic_boy]

Maybe, maybe not. Sometimes I want to throw this phone out a window. [laugh emoji]

:)

[oldladyenough]

I wouldn't recommend it. Pain in the ass getting them replaced sometimes.

:D

[good_catholic_boy]

Yeah...I learned that the hard way, with a laptop. [embarrassed emoji]

[oldladyenough]

Hopefully, you only did that once.

[good_catholic_boy]

Yes, it's hard to explain to the manufacturer, how the machine broke. Ya know, because the user is blind. [laugh emoji]

[oldladyenough]

I can imagine. [smile emoji] If you don't mind me asking, Mr. Murdock were you born blind or?

[good_catholic_boy]

No, I wasn't born blind. Lost my sight in an accident when I was 9 years old.

[oldladyenough]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[good_catholic_boy]

I made it through.

[oldladyenough]

And became an attorney to boot. Think I may have to thank my boys now for playing around with my phone. [smiley emoji]

[good_catholic_boy]

[grin emoji] Yeah? I've enjoyed our conversation. Although, I'd like to know more about you, if you don't mind that is.
