The Ringing in my Head

So at work today my phone rang. Naturally I answered it, but there was nobody there. However, the phone kept ringing even though I had the receiver off the cradle. So since the ringing was annoying I turned the ringer volume down. But that didn't work, it kept ringing at the same volume. I couldn't stop it. So since the ringing was irritating I got up and decided to go somewhere else. But see, everywhere I went, I could still hear the phone ringing, but it sounded like it was everyone else's phones that were ringing. I went to each person's desk to see if their phone was ringing cause it sounded like it. I mean, walking away from my phone didn't make the volume of the ringing decrease, but when I listened to everyone else's phones it didn't sound like it was necessarily them that was ringing, just that some phone in the general area was ringing. But as hard as I looked I couldn't find where the damn ringing was coming from and it was driving me nuts.

It was at about this time that I woke up and turned my fucking alarm clock off and got ready for work.

Embrace the ringing... the ringing is your friend.... you could reduce your amount of stress if you could only learn to let the phone ring, and ring, and ring... it wil eventually stop (like in one hour!)

that's funny. i actually have this problem at work while i'm awake. i hear phones around the office and think they're mine because i have the volume on mine turned down so low because i don't like talking to humans and wish it would just shutup. shutup. shutup. make it stop.
