I had a hearing test today and I officially have tinitus. I also learned a new pronunciation, as I have always pronounced it "tin-night-us, but everyone at the hospital pronounced it "tin-nih-tus". Of course with that diagnoses comes the explanation that they don't know what caused it (it wasn't noise induced, they say) or how to fix it. At least I don't notice it except when I'm in a dead silent room. Then it just sounds like a low electrical hum.
I also found out that my hearing is above normal, so for all those times as a teen-ager when I said I didn't hear my parents, I guess hearing gets better with age :)
My need/want scale was completely out of whack this weekend. I needed to do laundry and chores, but I wanted to snuggle on the couch and nap and watch TV. Needless to say, the laundry still needs to be done and I'm woefully short on socks.

Ack! I too spent Sunday napping/snuggling/watching TV... And there is a pile of laundry spilling out of my hamper and taking over my bedroom floor. Great minds do think alike!
