napping earsI�ll be the first to admit that years of punk rock shows have seriously damaged my hearing. I am forever turning up the television and asking others to repeat themselves.
Why then, is it the moment I lie down for a brief nap, I can hear the respiration of an ant? Sounds that I normally never hear (or choose not to) are suddenly deafeningly loud. Like the fishbowl...that bastard in there sounds like hes throwing himself against the walls.
I hear the purring of my cat, normally a relaxing sound, and begin to ruminate the possibility that my cat has purchased a Harley-Davidson Fatboy and chose to tune it up on the sofa.
But when it thunderstorms, I am out like a light.
Insatiably weird.
