Do the noise cancellation headphones work on noise generated by shums? They don't block the adorable little mewing sounds made by cute kittens, do they? |
Yeah, but I'm paying for it now. Ever since last night I have been feeling sick. I had a minor bout at the Houston Meetup, but then I was fine until last night. Then, I was up the whole damn night sitting on the porcelain throne and praying for death.
Then ... all day today ... more of the same. So, I'm hungry as all get out and worried about eating anything much because it might start all over again. There are some great nights and then there are those that just plain suck. This is one of the latter.
As for the noise cancellation headphones .... I've only used them on planes. However, I am lucky in that I have very selective hearing when I'm asleep. I can sleep through almost anything, but if one of my cats meows for me .... I'm up and bolt awake. That was even true when I lived in downtown San Diego ... I'd sleep through the traffic and the trolley sounds (I lived right near a crossing ... with one of those clanging gates), but if Newton meowed, even if he was outside the condo, I woke up.
I wish there was some way to pass this ability on to those who need it. I don't so much now since I live out in the country. No SHUMS out here ... not yet anyway.
