Think I've been abusing my ears with overly loud music in my headphone and earphone for a little too log. The last few days when I've been listening at home for any more than half an hour i start to get a strange ear ache in my left ear and it doesn't really subdue. The volume abuse is evidently catching up on me so I'm going to do my best to give them a rest for the remainder of the week, which is no mean feat to someone like me who almost constantly has music in my ears. However, you cant put a price on your hearing so sacrifices must be made.
