Smells weird in a good or bad way?
Yeah, when they took out my stitches I could feel them undoing the string and it coming out... it was like, in an "x" over the hole where the tooth was so it felt really, really strange.

Not in a bad way, just lacking the reinforcement of their scents, so it's different. I'll get over it tomorrow.
I've thankfully never had to have stitches in my mouth. They would be so uncomfortable.

Well, it wasn't uncomfortable or anything, because they were small stitches, but yeah, I had them in for a week and after that when they took them out there was like, little bits of food that had been lodged in them because the guy who stiched me up didn't do them tight enough so food got in, but no infection luckily. I had to gargle salt water 3 times a day.

Yeah, I gargle salt water sometimes even though I can't stand salt water, cos I have teeth that need fillings, and maybe two that need pulling, but I can't afford aprivate dentist and because it's not an emergency, I'm on the public dentist waiting list for the next 4 years or something.
Hey, have you ever had like a weird tingling and buzz in your head just before all your electrical devices starting buzzing because you had an incoming call or message on your mobile phone? I get it a fair bit and it just happened then.

Er, no, can't say personally that I have, although I've had a funny tingly ringing sensation during and after a phone call, but I put that down to just the radiation in my head
Heh, sucks about private/public healthcare. Really.

*wonders if there's a possibility she is in fact a very life-like android with AI capabilities and emtional responses...then cracks up*
Yep, I'm a dork.
The only thing that makes me not rave about it too much is the fact we're lucky to have proper public health services. Lots of places don't.

*nods* true, true. Well, in my last post I was going to mention something about metal plates in one's head but that's just rude.
Maybe you just have really good hearing? Like, sometimes my dog can tell who is on the phone right before it rings- if it's a family member, he barks, and if not, he ignores it... not saying you're like my dog...

That would explain it. Cos sometimes I can hear dog whistles, you know, those ones that people aren't meant to be able to hear... Yet as a baby mum had to leave the vacuum cleaner on in the room for me to go to sleep. And lately I've been needing music on really soft to get to sleep. I went to sleep with Andy's experimental electronica, trance, ambient and techno last night.

Oo, I do that... hear phones before they ring... it's really annoying, because even when I shut the ringer off on my phone so I can sleep, I'll suddenly wake up out of nowhere and then a minute later my answering machine light is blinking With mobile phones I don't get it as much, but that's because I don't carry one anymore so I don't see them around. Mine used to make the car radio buzz a bit the moment before it rang.

Yeah, you know how mobiles make radios and computers buzz a moment before they ring? Well I get that kind of buzz in my head a moment before the computers and radios start to buzz sometimes. It's kinda bizarre. I don't get it as much with normal phones though. Maybe I'm just sensetive to the waves mobiles send out.

That'd be an interesting experiment- like if you hooked Li up to one of those EEG brainwave monitoring machine things and then see what happens in there right before a phone rang... does the same thing happen with other things like fax machines and stuff? Like, you'll know before the phone goes all funny right before a fax arrives?

Post by Nie on Dec 21, 2003 5:23:37 GMT -5
Yeah, it's happened with fax machines a few times before, but not as much as mobile phones.
Heh, I should probably get a CAT-scan as well.
You know, it's kinda weird we all have sort of strange ability that sets us apart from the norm. I mean, I've no doubt that I would have been burnt at the stake had I lived during the time of Joan of Arc.

*sudden mental image of King Charles directing troop movements with a mobile phone that plays "La Marseillaise" when it rings... and Li, in armour, saying, "Mon roi noble, votre cellphone sonnera...."*

No real idea what that means, but I'm sure I could guess.
Getting this topic off the ground again, of late I've had Jay convinced I can read him mind. I keep guessing what he's thinking, or seem to be thinking the same thing he is. I think it's more that we're just on the same wave length, but he's convinced I'm a mind reader. I'll add that to my list of strange attributes shall I?
