I have no voice. For the most part, I sound like one of Peter Jackson's elves, talking in whispers all the time, except that every now and then, something happens and I suddenly sound like Gollum or an orc for a few words, before I return to being an elf again.
The above situation makes phoning in sick to work slightly challenging. Although we have a new, shiny phone system at work, we do not yet have one that allows for miming "my throat hurts so much that I've had no sleep for two days, except for snatched moments on the couch when I was trying to watch dodgy movies on the SyFy channel, but kept opening my eyes blearily to find that I'd missed the end, so still don't know if all the giant mutant megatyrannoctosharkypusosaurs ATE THE WORLD! or not."
