got an early b-day present from my sweetie!
And it's awesome! :D
I've gotten rather sound-sensitive at night, to the point that a neighbor's air conditioner or a loud transformer (heh!) can keep me awake - it's that low-frequency thrumming sound, it gets into my head.
So...sweetie got me a Marpac Sound Screen white noise machine. We'd been using an electric fan to cover the noise, but with winter coming it'd be too cold. This thing sounds like our fan, but gives off no cool air - it's just sound, and it covers not only that low-frequency electronic noise but the other night, when we had 50 mph wind gusts and rain, it made the whole storm sound like rolling ocean waves! I don't think I've had better sleep! :D
If anyone has trouble sleeping through random irritating noises, I wholly recommend this gadget. It's adjustable in several ways (hole covers rotate in two areas, and there's a two-speed switch), it's small, and it WORKS!
