So, today was my ENT appointment. After giving her really vague references as to my symptoms (how can you really explain it to someone who doesn't sing?!)...she casually mentions 'well, we're gonna numb your nose and stick a camera down your throat'. At that point in time, the first thought in my head was 'you know, I think I can live with a bit of a raspy voice...'. Anyhow, it was an odd experience. Kind of painful at first but it is, after all, a camera being stuck up your nose. In the end, no big deal...I have some irritation that can be treated by avoiding certain things. Coffee and peppermint being amongst the items on the list... So, in conclusion, raspy voice it shall be.
I also had a meeting with my good ol' folks at the NRA. Ah, going back...the memories. Yes, thank god for web development. :-) Anyways, it looks like I'll be doing some freelance work for them. The new manager of competitions (where I used to be) is a good guy, he'll do a good job...but I'm interested to see how he can revive competitions. From an advertising/design perspective, it's great because he seems to agree with the focus of the ads, whereas me and my last boss butted heads. But I still couldn't sell them on marketing over the web. No e-newletters, no promotional sites...sheesh...isn't everyone on the web these days??

j2 - it's not an addiction!! Merely a habit. O:-)
No cure...well, except for cutting out coffee, peppermint, and alcohol...but who wants to do that??!
alcohol, too??!! next thing you know, they'll say, "cut out poker, rock climbing, and web design."
