My Mom Even Came Home Early From Work Today Because *She's* Not Feeling Well..
When I woke up I didn't notice anything unusual.Even as I checked my email nothing felt weird, save for the fact that my sinuses were a little icky but much better than when I'd woken up in the middle of the night (I had some drainage problems around 3am, forcing me to prop up for the rest of the night.)
It wasn't until, after squeeing over my job (YES. I GOT THE JOB AT THE HOBBY STORE), I went and put on SGA to watch with breakfast. The initial blast of sound from the DVD hit my ears and wtfidek.
No sound = happy me.
Sound = slightly uncomfortable me.
LOUD sound = unhappy me.
Srsly, when I have sound, as from a TV, or me or someone talking, I can feel it hitting my ear drums, as they ache slightly, along with the sensation that there's something behind them. It's almost like the pressure/equilibrium in my ear canal is off a bit, but as I've been blowing my nose and swallowing crap all morning (no post-nasal drip at all since 3am, thank goodness) it hasn't helped. It's very much akin to the pressure/equilibrium issues one gets with changes in elevation when driving in a car on the highway and a minor hill/major dip gets taken too fast and your ear needs to be popped a bit.
It's almost like I have something stuck in my ear, but I can still hear very well.
Other than this, laying down requires me to close my eyes, and I actually had a 3 hour nap with the feeling that I could happily sleep for much, much longer.
So either I garnered an ear infections somewhere that's starting to manifest (and my Pastor's daughter just had a really bad one diagnosed yesterday, complete with torn ear drum and blood. ick) or something really didn't drain properly last night (which is doubtful because I don't have the water-in-ear feeling when I move) or the weather is messing with me (as it's been rainy and gray since yesterday, worse today, as the sun came out last night around dinner). Or all of the above.
IDEK.
All I know is that I canceled all my plans for today as I don't feel safe going anywhere right now. Needless to say that I'll be going to bed as early as I can tonight.
