Went to the Ear/Nose/Throat doctor today to get my nosebleed issue taken care of. While I was there, he did a generl ENT check, and found I had a disturbing amount of earwax buildup. Like, half-inch-long plugs of brown and black wax.
Now that those plugs have been wrestled out, I can hear more clearly, but that's something of a mixed blessing, since most of the extra things I'm hearing are cloth rustling, furniture squeaking, etc. Background noise I'd been successfully ignoring with my "earplugs" in. Wheeee. Hope it doesn't keep me from falling asleep tonight.
