Today we decided to start working out (again). I used to read, but find the different machines have different book holders, some not quite as functional as others so I decided not to anymore. Anyway, I was on the elliptical (shh, don't tell my Dr., he chewed me out because it "destroys" me knees) and I put in my earphones/buds. I totally forgot why I hated the insert kind. They're always so so small.
I've been living with the fact that my ear canals are abnormally tiny. I can't fit earphones in and they hurt because they fall out and I try reinserting them constantly. That day was no different. When I came home my ears were red and hurting a lot.
I wonder why stores have different ear bud sizes, but the smaller, the further it sits in the ear canal, waiting to burst your eardrums. That's a little too close for comfort and dangerous, in my opinion. My Ipod ear buds were way too big too. I finagled a cover to compensate, but promptly lost them.
I need to design ear buds for people like me.
