Today, I just cracked open a fortune cookie. Isn't this appropriate?
An update from my First Life: nothing much seems to have changed with my hyperacusis. In fact, it unfortunately seems worse now than it did months ago. 
I don't know why. I think I'll have to persist with noise retraining at night so my ears can properly hear the right frequencies again. I don't want to be stuck like this forever. It scares me. Listening to music at low levels is fine, but that also calls any precision producing/mixing out of the question because of the level sonic detail I need to "zoom in on". I look over to the side at my gear and it makes me sad I'm not actively using it. On the other hand, I don't have a lot of idle time either, being kept busy with Second Life. What will happen next? I don't know. All I know is that whatever comes, comes, and this sounds cliched but is true: I have to make the best of life.
Briefly, in the news:
- It's nice to know Rod Stewart shares my taste in clothing. LOL.
- Jerry Newport, who has Asperger's Syndrome like I do, is in another news article pointing towards the release of the love story inspired by his and his wife's life, Mozart and the Whale. (I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!)?I can especially relate, in a past capacity anyhoo, to when it says: "He wanted to fit in and have interactions with others - he just didn't always know how to do it." The whole article touches me. I'm convinced there's hope yet. (Hope for what? Hope for happiness in an existence that is so full of pain and suffering at times, certainly.)
I had a good sleep last night. Some rather memorable moments in SL over the day. Towards the end past 3 AM, I started to feel this really surreal vibe, a sort of dreamline state. I had not entered REM sleep yet, but would get there soon. I had a strangely beautiful?dream too. Not sure what to make of it yet — it will likely figure out somehow in hindsight. This aerial shot, as you can see, is reminiscent of the movie The Matrix. This is where I logged off and came back. I really fancy the angle and the whole epic grandeur of the skyline.
I have plenty of travel to get to today, so I'd better get to it! *logs back on to Second Life*
