AWWWWWWWWWWWWW/ Look at him curled up there! I wonder if he's discovered the self-heating pad yet?
I'm the opposite of you noise-wise. Machinery noises don't bother me except for when someone leaves their engine idling -- something about the decibel level or the vibrations has always bothered me. Mostly, though, it's avoidable people noise like loud talking and music that I can't handle. I want to choose my own music and I don't talk on the phone outside here -- I try to keep the talking outside to a minimum because I think if it bugs me, it might bug someone else. I think it has to do with just needing my own space and on some level, thinking others are intruding on it. Even my roomies bug me if they talk loud when I go to bed, so I've had to tell them about that. I sent them an article on Asperger's so they could translate and think about it, but IDK if they really understand it or not. I've also explained that I'm just really sensitive in terms of all of the senses. That may have to do with my ethnic background (Indigenous)? IDK.
Cats, I believe, are sweet by nature and will be sweet when they are well cared for by someone who loves them. Also, most cats in shelters are desperate to get out of them, so they do anything and everything they think will get them adopted.
Insomnia! On a good night, I get up twice. I'm leaving my system on all the time now because I'm not sure I could boot it up again; so I'm focused on that all the time and it's been impossible (last night was the first night) to take my brain out of the lineup, so to speak, and relax. It's so squirrelly I don't even want to risk putting it in sleep mode since I tried that once and it didn't take the command.
