I have no voice. :( This may be gross, but, I got seasick on the ferry there - - does anyone know if you can lose your voice from throwing up? Does it cause permanent damage?

BUT, I have had a fun weekend with chthonian who is darling and dear. We had oodles of fun, even when we were just being lazy in our super cute private room at the hostel, watching Parks & Rec and eating food. The weather was windy and rainy and generally ick, so we wound up seeing 50/50 and In Time, trying to stay indoors, etc.

Now I am home, and my mother has somehow fucked up my dad's brand new computer, and she's all "IIIIII don't know what happened!" I wish I could go back to Victoria. >.<

It's HIGHLY unlikely it would cause permanent damage unless it was happening to you constantly over a long period of time--severe acid reflux, for instance, or constant vomiting. :/ yaay grossness.

GLAD Y'ALL HAD FUN

T'was just the once! I managed to last the entire hour and a half back home without succumbing (victory!), but it's been constantly hoarse since promptly after sicking up on Friday. Julie will just NEVER get to hear what my real voice sounds like. Only gravelly, deep, hoarse voice for her, I guess?

T'WAS AWESOME! If you ship yourself out here before she goes off to your end of the country in February, we could always do it again. Probably with equally bad weather and mainly indoor activities, though... darn driving rains.

Hope everything's back to normal, asap! And glad you had fun! :)

Sidebar, I like losing my voice. Is that weird? Probably. Whatever.

Sidebar, I totally dig the sensation of losing my voice too! It's just so unusual. My housemate had some sort of non-painful laryngitis recently, and after I polled her to make absolutely sure that it hadn't hurt in any way shape or form, that it was just inconvenient, I was like: "I wish I could've had that! It sounds so interesting!"

Caitlin: "NO, NO YOU DON'T WISH THAT"
me: "NO BUT I ACTUALLY DO."

♥♥♥!!

1. I am sorry your voice is still terrible, but glad that you were steely & survived the trip back :<
2. Oh my god so I broke into the herb bread last night and 1) it is JUST AS AMAZING AS IT WAS ON FRI/SAT, 2) it is FUCKING ENORMOUS!!!! I wish we'd looked at it so I could've shown you how GIGANTIC this crazy motherfucker is. I brought a couple slices with me to work and I'm just eating them plain, with nothing on. why so gooooooood
3. When I was squeeing at my housemate about our breakfast on Sat, showing her pictures of the menu/food etc, she was like "What was this magical place?" me: "The BEST breakfast place in all Victoria!" her: "WAS IT THE BLUE FOX CAFE??????" me: "OMG YES!!!" her: "HIGH FIVE."

So, basically, I love that it really truly does have the reputation 'best breakfast place'.

Insert obligatory joke here about Phoebe's sexy hoarse cold!voice on Friends.

Haha, that's exactly it. Plus, people actually pay close attention to what you say when you lose your voice. They have no choice. I approve of not having to repeat myself just because some self-involved douche at work wasn't listening the first time.

LOL, except I don't have to kiss sick people to get this, I just have to set foot on a boat. :| *bad Norwegian*

Don't eat anything for like... 20 hours, and then throw up, and YOU COULD HAVE IT TOO, JULIE!!

I'm being a monk who doesn't talk for a day. XD So far I've said less than 20 words.

It's not bad this time around, because it doesn't hurt at all, but I don't think I'd ordinarily agree with you because usually it's accompanied by a heinous sore throat?

1. Do you know how I did it? I listened to Gaga. I'm not joking. I was all "I wanna listen to more Gaga, one song at breakfast was not enough, and then I was doing that thing where you're dancing in your head (and your bumcheeks, but you're sitting down so it doesn't show unless you start tapping your feet too), and it was distracting enough to where if I was just singing loudly along in my head (hell, even had I wanted to sing in front of the crowd on the boat, NO VOICE), I could ignore the massive amount of boat sway. I felt very bad though, for the dozen or so ladies I saw emerge from the bathroom looking woeful. :(

2. You can share with housemates instead of hoarding bread a la Templeton the rat!! You should just call them, and see if you give them your credit card, will they express mail you a loaf of bread, from time to time. :P I may have to find a way to get you some for Christmas.

3. SEE, SOMEONE KNEW ABOUT IT. And they didn't tell you. Luckily for our tastebuds, I was aware too. I liked my fruit and banana bread, and your benny and other people's food looked good at John's too, mind, but I think I still like the Blue Fox just a hair better? It's a good thing I don't live at that hostel full time; with two delicious, fattening breakfast places within six blocks...

P.S. Whenever you get the urge to watch some more P&R, I'll be around, yo!
