Phonetics

What's that sound? Did those 0.234 seconds matter? What kind of vowel was that? Did I mark it right? Why did I just listen to the same bit of sound 20 times in a row? Get that voice out of my head!

Okay, I'm exaggerating. But phonetics drives you a little crazy. In a cool way though - when the little things fall into place, you get that wonderful feeling that everything makes sense.
I can see why someone would devote their life to it, though I'm not sure I will.
