blah!



today is blah - not in a bad way or a good way just blah - food not brill but not bad, i had a bit of this micky mouse shaped doughnut i got sucked in a tesco and they are minging save your 70p! and some of these retro mushrooms and a few winegums.

the sign tickled me as i wander past to tesco to buy these offending items for my team.

i went to the doc about my back, he didn't say much but i have asked for a referral for a hearing test, for a long time i've felt i'm going deaf... when i was little i had problems and had grommets (sp) fitted twice! my mum is totally deaf in one ear and all 3 of my grandparents have hearing aids. i know my hearing isn't brill i can hear back ground noise brilliantly but when people are speaking directly too me i miss words, usually i can guess i'll here do you ....  ...  brew? plus i work in Bolton so there are always the peter kay esk hand gestures, so i construct my own sentences in my head. but it's getting worse, if someone has there back to me i get very little my mum gets well naffed off with me today in tesco i asked her t repeat as she had her back to me and someone right next to me spoke at the same time and i saw her mutter but still didn't get a word of it. but its hard to try and explain to someone as i'm "too young" to be deaf but i'm getting there. i've asked a number of times at the docs about it but cos i tend to only go when i have a cold /flu they usually dismiss me.

my maternal gran has this frequency hearing problem which is she struggles hearing face to face conversations if there is back ground noise and i think thats kinda what i have, i've never been able to here people on nights out, if i know there voice well i can usually get by but if they are new to me i have no chance most of the time they think i'm too drunk to understand but its noise noise noise and silence silence silence

Do you listen to loud music or use headphones a lot? I sometimes struggle with speech, especially American accents on TV. Can be difficult to separate the words.

You go to the doctor when you have a cold or flu? Are you serious? What happens if you get a paper cut... A&E? I'm guessing you must have some underlying health issues and are not just a time waster :p
