This is cool. Are you really going to answer my question personally?

? That would be great! My question is, I work at a logistics company and often I have to work with material and boxes that are extremely dusty, and honestly, I love blowing the dust off of the boxes and when I do that I inhale the dust, I can't help not doing that. I just really like it . But I'm afraid it has came back to haunt me because I also love to sing and I am actually pretty good but now I can't seem to hit any high or less notes without my voice sounding horrible and hoarse. What can I do to fix that and is blowing the dust really that bad?
