Coffee Tombstone

Visitors
Andrea's friend, Adam is visiting from Seattle and staying with us. He's been here for a week now and we've had a few good conversations. I think Andrea and Adam complement one another quite well.

Kris, her friend Eleanor and Michael came to San Diego yesterday for the Death Cab for Cutie concert. Kris and Eleanor actually had tickets. The venue was outdoors near the harbor behind the convention center. People sat on the lit convention center steps, hung out near the rocks along the harbor and a couple of people rented little boats and were floating in the water near the concert. Michael, Adam and I sat along the harbor to simply listen. However, it got windy and very cold, so we moved over to the convention center steps. I enjoyed listening to the music from afar. I liked staring at the lights because I like light shows. Plus, the volume was perfect for relaxation. We could enjoy the music and still carry on conversations. I had a splendid time.

Throat/Stomach/Esophagus Issues
My throat hurts again today. I think the cold yesterday may have started some kind of sickness chain; however, I will devote the rest of today and tomorrow to hydrating myself to rid myself of sickness. That's the plan. My voice keeps changing because of my throat/stomach/esophagus issues. I feel like a boy going through puberty, except I'm skipping the voice-squeaking phase and jumping right to my voice sounding deeper. Actually, I think I sound raspy. Gross. Anyway, my doctor was supposed to call me today and tell me the results of my Monday barrium exam (which I do want to share about, just not now) but he hasn't called yet. I'm taking it as good news. I figure if it was anything serious, he would have called by now. So there you have it, coffee is not killing me.
