I haven't been around much lately. The new job is going great and I actually get home earlier than I used to...the only downfall is no idog during the day 
Anyway, I am now working on the 33rd floor of my building. I love being up that high and looking out over the city, the only problem is, everytime I go up or down the elevator my ears pop. I usually go up and down about 4 - 5 times a day. I don't mind the popping, but now I seem to have a low dull ache in my ear. I have NEVER had any ear problems, no tubes, never remember having an ear infection etc. I don't want to go the docs since my new insurance hasn't kicked in yet and I don't feel like paying the $1500 COBRA charge for something this silly when all it may be is just sore. If there was a real emergency I would pay the fee, but my new insurance kicks in in a few weeks.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a sore inner ear??
