Clarification

I wanted to clarify something for all you readers out there...

My CI processor is almost always set at the lowest volume possible and I have it switched to the "whisper" setting about 85% of the time. Hence the reason I hear all sorts of random sounds/noises all the time.

If my posts sound like I'm complaining, that is not my intention AT ALL. Just like a normal-hearing person, sometimes I notice different sounds on different days... and just like a normal-hearing person, sometimes the sounds "bother" me more.

Regardless, I am more than grateful that I have such a powerful CI and would not change a thing about it!

Grrr.

I wish my laptop fan wasn't running so loudly. Having to listen to that incessant hum gets really annoying after a while.

Yes, I'm in a bad mood, which isn't being helped by the fact that my CI works so well!


<sigh>

Sarah

I was driving home tonight & had the radio tuned to 102.7FM only because NPR stops broadcasting news at 7pm.

Well, it's a good thing I did this because it allowed me to have a lovely CI moment: I recognized Sarah McLachlan's "In the Arms of an Angel" within *SECONDS* of it first playing!


I was proud of myself, if I may say so.
