Hearing Things

[ridiculicious]

Here is what I didn't hear last night:  someone breaking in my car;  my neighbor's alarm going off for hours; and the police knocking on my door.

A couple of months ago, I got super sick and lost my hearing in one ear.  Since then, I hear nothing but the ocean in my right ear.  This has some advantages.  Ear plugs for concerts last twice as long

No health insurance. Don't know if it's permanent. I prolly need a tube in my ear. I've always had severe infections and many problems with that ear, so it wouldn't surprise me if it was permanent.

I've missed your posts. Glad you are back, gimpy or whatever not withstanding.

I lost about 60-70% of my hearing for a few months when I was in grad school. It was a really freakish, horrible time. I remember sitting in meetings and not even being able to hear the person next to me. Apparently it was an infection and it went away after a few months.

Sorry you're having this problem :(

I was going to make an enprise joke, but stopped myself. It was pretty terrible anyway.

Seriously, though, sorry to hear about the recent handicap and more recent car burglary. But I am glad to see you back.

That whole enprise thing... Thanks whore.

You're very brave about your misfortunes. I hope the deafness turns out to be temporary. And that the thief has a painful accident.
