when i was little, i used to hear a drumming sound in my ear when i went to sleep. i thought it was little men marching down a staircase like my ear was an airplane (or "ear"plane :P) and they were marching onto my pillow. i thought that for the longest time...i still dunno what that drumming sound is :/
