I really wish that hearing was something that one could turn on and off. I realize that people who wear hearing aids can sort of do this (take the thing out whenever they want, thus leaving themselves less able to hear), but that's not quite what I mean. I want to keep my hearing--all of it--and just be able to switch it off completely whenever I need total silence. Which would be quite often.
In the meantime, I wish I could sleep like the dead. Unless I'm utterly exhausted after several days' worth of missed sleep (cross-country Amtrak trip, for instance), I'm such a light sleeper that my dog sneezing in the next room will wake me up. I'm almost never properly rested, and I know this is part of the reason.
