Today is day 14 of the buzzing noise that's occurring in my ear. For those of who knows, and those who don't, I have chronic tinnitus and migraines. I hate my tinnitus a lot more than my migraines. When I do get migraines, I have Roy to comfort me, and he knows what to do when I get the attacks (turning off the lights, rubbing my back, making me a bath if I want it, I got it good...maybe I should lie to him from time to time!). However, with the tinnitus, there's really nothing anyone can do. All I can do is scream. I usually get ringing sounds or water boiling type of sound. This time, for 14 days, it sounds like I have a bee in my ear. Buzz buzz buzz buzz...OH it's so frickin' annoying...seriously. I remember there was one time that I suffered tinnitus for 2 1/2 months, straight. I thought I was going crazy.
In a way, I am glad that I'm not working right now because it would really bother me at work. I just kind of go outside, chill, watch TV, play with my cats (that is if I wake them up), just kind of keep myself busy.
Yesterday, I spent some time looking at YouTube for various videos. On Roni's blog, she showed me a video of Deaf Ninja . It's pretty funny. I didn't really have to interpret too much for Roy because this guy was very clear of telling the story. When I saw this, I stumbled upon a video of Clarke School Student. WARNING - not for those who are 100% supportive of oral schools.
At first, Roy thought this was an actual advertisement. He wasn't laughing. Then I said to him, Clarke School for the Deaf is an oral school, and this guy is making fun of them. Roy got it and he was laughing. Then he saw, "Karaoke for the Deaf" by Hollow Men (kind of infamous video of a guy interpreting "Torn" by Natalie...not in ASL or sign language). Roy was almost peeing in his pants when he saw that. Since then, he won't stop signing the last words, "TOOOORRRN". Drives me crazy.
It's such a nice day outside. I think I'm gonna hang out by the pool.

*gasp* and he speaks! Thanks Roy for the link...this link is even more funnier because....well, you JUST gotta check it out.
Hee, thanks for the link. I know what it is like to have continuous ringing in ears...I had it when I was at Indy 500. I didn't realize how loud these race cars were! It was too late for me to ask my friend for ear plugs and I got stuck with goddamn ringing in my ears for rest of the day. That was totally sucks.
