A Ringing in the Catman's Ears

Catman: worried i might have f'ed my ears

J: ?
Catman: worried i might have tinnitus
J: eeee
Catman: crazy though, affects 1 in 5 people
Catman: i actually should probably go to the doctor
Catman: Low-pitched ringing. Conditions that can cause low-pitched ringing in one ear include Meniere's disease. Tinnitus may become very loud before a vertigo attack — a sense that you or your surroundings are spinning or moving.
J: yeah -- you've had vertigo before, right?
Catman: i guess that's what it was
J: your dizzy spells
Catman: ha
J: ?
Catman: don't be an f'ing turd
J: ?
J: thats what they are called
Catman: mocking me
Catman: is called being a turd
J: hmm - you might have turditis too
J: tell your doc to check for that
J: it's when a fleck of turd gets into your brain
J: and the blood gets turned into turd water
J: check to see if the white of your eyes have taken on a light brownish color - that's one way of testing for it
Catman: i'm going to pound you
J: i'm just curious
J: turditis can be a serious illness
J: one of its symptoms is being mean to your buds
J: have you experienced anything like that recently?
Catman: you were being rude to me
J: you were dizzy - you had dizzy spells
J: that is vertigo
J: couldn't come to work
Catman: i guess
Catman: no
Catman: that was when i was actually sick
Catman: and turned it into a  joke
Catman: because one of my symptoms was dizziness
J: it was your only symptom
Catman: no
J: I asked you if it was okay to write that an all staff e-mail saying you were too dizzy to come to work
J: and you said yea
J: you were a good cat back then
J: you weren't so ratty with others
Catman: ha - your'e always ratty with me
J: :)
