My husband (JU ID 'lonesome traveler') complains that I talk too much sometimes.

It's true, I do get a bit chatty at times.

He's going to be a very happy man when he gets home from work this evening.

I'm losing my voice. 

I have a cold, and it was a bit raspy when I got up this morning.  I liked the way it sounded, so I started singing along with my guitar playing.

That was a mistake.....because I've gone from having a sexy rasp to having nothing but an unattractive squeak come out when I try and talk.

I would call him to tell him, but it's kind of pointless because he won't be able to hear me....so I'll just wait and surprise him when he comes home.

He's going to have a very enjoyable evening....

lol...I'm sicker than a dog, too, Karen. At first I thought it was just Minnesota allergies, but I know it's something more now. I've got nasty green stuff coming from my nose, nastier stuff being hacked out of my lungs, and a very squeaky voice.

Sure didn't take long for my little ratlets to get me sick. Only 5 days! Not bad.

Hope you're singing, generally feeling better, and annoying the man again soon, K.

Mooooooooo

when I was a child, you know when messages were sent by drums and smoke. there was a show called the andy divine show, his nemisis was froggy the gremlin, when andy wanted to get rid of froggy, he would say.plunk your magic twanger froggy" and froggy would disappear to cause more mischief later.

Don't talk then. Not even a little. You could build up vocal nodes if you do too much. (callouses on the vocal ligament in the larynx after your stratified squamous epithilium dries up.) Then you have to wait a month too talk, and everytime you slip up much, you start all over again. Not that we would ever laugh at vocal majors when they had it. Never.

Good chance to snuggle up to the guitar and practice the riffs from Hotel California. Maybe the version from Big Lebowski. Nobody F--ks with the Jesus.
