ever have one of those days when you feel like you're just on the edge of being able to hear the thoughts of everyone around you? for me, yesterday was one of those days. this is not to be confused with that general vibe i get from people normally. i mean, in most cases, i can feel what others are feeling, get on the subway and know in a personal sense how others are feeling about their day. but this time was different. it's like i could hear a low background noise trickling in from everyone around me. it only lasted a few minutes, but it was both eerie and fascinating.

and no, i don't think i'm losing my mind.

I was actually overly sensitive to this very thing many years ago. It took me a long time to be able to filter it out. When I'm feeling sick or unhealthy, it's harder for me to filter. And no, I didn't _quite_ lose my mind. ;)

well i was feeling rather unhealthy at the time, but i can't imagine why i'd want to filter it out. it was the most fascinating feeling...

i get that when i don't get enough sleep. depending on the location, the older, occupied it is ... the more i can hear things.

Trust me, when you hear it 24/7, eventually you'll want to filter it out. :)
