today was demolition derby day for hope brigade days. i went because it could be my last time, and because danielle's brother was in it. it was fun to have someone to cheer on. at about 10 pm tonight, after a few phone calls and being chatty/cheery today my voice starting cracking.
this morning i sounded pretty rough too... the guy who wants to buy my car (part 2) thought i was still sleeping when he called... then i tried to explain that i lost my voice last week, and in the morning and evening it's a little selma-ish. i am certain he thought i was lying. i forgot to explain about bill and how i'm up by 7 with no choice.
i've always thought that i have a bit of a yuk or boring voice, but today, a girl from hope who i haven't seen in ten years came up to where we were sitting and was like, hi ian! and then she stared at me, and i was like, ursula. you know, to help her out. she said, i know! but i haven't seen you in 10 years! how are you doing... blah blah blah. then she said: you have a really nice voice. i joked that it looked like i was going to score. but then she said that she usually remembers voices, etc. and didn't remember mine being so nice... soft she even said. i think she needs her hearing checked, but whatever. anyway, she wanted to know where i was living and what i was doing, so i told her a bit about what i've been doing... okay, i told her: i moved from kits to white rock (she's friends with sue, who probably mentioned that i lived in vancouver) and then i said i'm going to europe in two weeks. then i explained that it was indefinite. honestly, it was three sentences. since i don't really care what she's up to, i didn't ask. i could have, but i don't think it's that awesome to pretend to be interested in what someone's doing if you're not.
anyway, her unsolicited comment went to my head. i now think i have a nice voice! mwah hah hah! nice enough to never shut up, that is!!! whoot!
