My throat is a bit hoarse today and that is without singing at all last night.
I need to rest my larynx a few days and let it recover from all of the damage I did to it a few days ago. I must have really been belting out some notes for my throat to feel the way it does, but we did get some great songs recorded so I guess it was worth the pain. My throat hurts on the outside and not the inside like you would think. I guess the strain made the muscles sore, so cooling down my throat is probably a good idea, as my HVAC rep buddy told me last week. She said to put a bag of frozen peas on my throat to help soothe the muscles and get it back to good again. I think cooling down the whole body is a must at this point after playing ball beside this local business on the beach last night. I had such a blast though and am still seeing some of the plays we had in my mind when I think back on the evening. The other HVAC techs who play have become really good friends of mine, as sports can bring strangers together with the strong bond that sports can create, heating up new relationships quickly with the close contact people have when playing the sport in the sand. I’ve had some total strangers that are now good friends of mine, which is why I love the sport so much. I wish you luck today!
