Speak up, I can't hear you.

I have completely lost voice.

How did this happen?

I'm not sick, I don't have a sore throat, and I haven't been yelling like a mad woman at a rock concert.

It's a complete mystery.

The coworkers have been capitalizing on my delimma.... Apparently it's funny when I start laughing and noises never before heard in nature emit from my body. Or, better yet, how hilarious is it phone continuously throughout the day hear squeak a barely audible 'hello'.

I work with the criminally insane, swear God.

other news.... Nose Hairs has recently started lecturing on the necessity of a house. He's gone so far as show LISTINGS of homes for near him.

What is going on here?!?

Does he not realize what it's like be a single mom? are a sponge bleeding dry...

 I hope you get well

when I get a sore throat, out comes the Vicks Vapor rub

reminded me of this

The Who - "See Me, Feel Me"

See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me

See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me

Listening to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet

Right behind you, I see the millions
On you, I see the glory
From you, I get opinion
From you, I get the story

    The biggest mistake that many people make is to buy a house while they still have consumer debt (auto loan, credit cards). Buy once the following conditions are met:

    1) no debt.
    2) emergency fund of 3 to 6 months expenses
    3) twenty percent or more down payment
    4) monthly payment of no more than 25 percent of monthly take home pay.

    (based on Dave Ramsey's teachings- see if the library has "Total Money Makeover".
I still have a car payment, so I'm definitely going to have to wait. I don't think I'm ready to buy a house anyway... It's a big step. I'm just not ready yet.

    Owning a home is better than renting...but it's not always a possibility. Maybe you should tell him you'll let him make a sizable down payment for you since he's so eager for you to buy a home! lol And of course make sure the deed is in your name only....
That's a fantastic idea! Lol I do know owning is better than renting, but I'm not really committed to living here the rest of my life. If it weren't for my kids, I would have moved years ago. I have no family here.

    When I have sex I like to go from intercourse to oral, back and forth. One afternoon, while playing with a friend I lost my voice. We were heavy with the AstroGlide and I believe I had coated my vocal chords in lube. It took several hours to get my voice back. Well worth it!
I didn't know that was possible... Do you use the flavored stuff? I do know, that's not what caused my current situation though. I've heard lots of theories, but the most common was dry air. I'm trying a humidifier to see if it helps.

Not a ruse to get you filed up. He definitely doesn't know, which is why I just listen and smile.

 my background (before I got into it sales) IS finance and accounting . There ARE ways to leverage your assets and borrow on those - if you leverage them correctly.
But... as a single mother with a young child...? THAT... would be a risk... I would NEVER suggest. He may know finance? He doesn't understand the risks YOU face.

Wow... Word gremlins ate the shit out of my post.

Actually, he is pretty financialy wise. He keeps lecturing me on my 401k and talks about investments... etc. quite a bit.

I think you may be right about him liking me... But he has a girlfriend, a bunch of nose hair, and his pants were way too short today. It would just never work out between the two of us. LOL
