50% of my ears aren’t working

September 27th, 2005 · Posted in Uncategorized · Comments Off

As in the right one shut down last night.

A week or so ago I tried using some ear-drops to get rid of some wax build up in my ears. That seemed to have worked, however some of the liquid got caught in my ear and I have slowly been losing the ability to hear from the right side of my head. Last night, my ear finally gave up, and I am now half-deaf (yes, I have tried grabbing my nose and blowing, and yawning etc – which works for about a second and a half).

It’s very wierd, I can hear my body very loudly (such as talking, breathing and the slight rubbing of clothes on skin as I move) but I’m finding it very difficult to hear things outside my body (which is good as I can get to sleep without hearing Mat crying :) ) but it means I have to ask people to repeat what they are saying all the time (which sucks).

I should probably just go see a doctor and get the crud syringed out, but it’s kind of cool to experience aural life this way…

hmm…

RodeoClown: can’t hear you. LALALALALALALALALALALA!
