Do aches and pains become highly annoying once you go to bed?  Is it because you are no longer distracted by the sights and sounds of the daylight hours?  Is it that you become more intuned to your body once the light fades and the deafening noises calm to where you are aware of your heart beat and the sounds of your internal plumbing?  The minute the outside noises calm the tintinittus in my ears and head begin to react to a fever pitch as though on cue it wants its audience of one’s complete attention.  For the passed 8 years I feel or rather hear a sound that makes me think I have become the single incubator for the locus population of the earth.  In my head I wonder especially at night if this is a plight given to me as some type of joke to drive me insane.  But then, as if an orchestra leader is tapping his stick to drop the musicians sound to a barely auditable pitch, daylight breaks. The sound is still there but it has moved to the back of the room or my head as if each musician is taking turns inhaling off the same smoke during a synchronized musical break.  Thus enabling me to proceed through the day to the lower pitch sound in my head until the setting suns unleashes the deafening sound yet again into every cavity of my skull.
