"I have toes," Persephone says, meekly. (the previous one would help this make a little more sense, but I'm just highly amused by the having toes comment. Well, that and the 'oooh! Look! Shiny!' method of destroying the world)

It's really useful that, even if I don't actively notice things I'm hearing, I can still generally think back and (re-)hear them. Only for a few moments in the past, but still.

It's especially helpful because I tend to be really good at tuning out noises that don't get flagged in my head as important when I'm otherwise occupied with something. Especially if the 'something' involves reading. :)

Of course, having things pointed out to me does tend to mean that it's hard to go back to tuning them out because it breaks my concentration to actively think about audible input. Ah, well.
