tanarillThat only I can hear. But first, Things:
I fell off the internet for a month. Oops.
JJ and I bought Skyward Sword as our Khannuka gift to each other. The problem is that we failed to also buy the wiimote plus, so we couldn't actually play said game for a week. FAIL.
Busy in the morning, busy in the evening, busybusy all the time. When you're a grad student and it is finals, you do not have time.
Someone who way or may not be a bot has friended me. Said person photographs his cat. I have no problem with this, but it was kind of random. O_o
Okay. The problem with my hearing is that it is too good. I mean this in the sense that I don't speak loud enough for other people to hear me not because I am shy, but because it is physically painful for me to hear louder noises - including my own voice. Which is a bad thing. I need an anti-hearing aide.
In the lab, this is quite annoying for a different reason. There is a machine called a probe sonicator and get your minds out of the gutter. In theory, it's like a hand juicer that just happens to vibrate at a speed best measured in megahertz. When it is submerged, it makes a high screeching noise that annoys all the people. When it is not submerged, it still makes a high screeching noise, but I am the only one who can hear it. It is a lot like ringing in one's ears, but mostly it is like nails on a blackboard and it goes all down my spine. >.o And no one else can hear it!
Anyway, I hear certain people are in Maine. How is Maine?
