Giddy giddy giddy

Ah, good idea, BFN.

Thanks, Brooke! Of course I'm still nutty.

I must be carrying myself differently because women I don't know at the gym (and who undoubtedly had no idea this was going on) have been saying to me things like, "Oh, you're done? Can't you stay a little longer?" Oh my. I need to bottle this feeling. 0:-D

You could tell people you are merely excited about how the Boston Celtics are doing against the CHICAGO BULLS!

no, but that's my excuse...

They sent over the DVD, which plays on our PC but not the television.

Man, it is one super surreal experience to see yourself on TV.

Why didn't anybody tell me I have such a low voice???

Was thinking that at the time but thought it suited you perfectly.

I like low voices. Might be why I married my husband, no kidding.
I happen to hate hate hate my own voice when recorded, what an arrogant and monotonal bitch, and it's a little late now to be taking an elocution class.

Anyway, Jes, I'm another who really likes your voice.

Count your blessings, jes...
It's been proven: low voices come across as more intelligent.
(Not that you need any help!)

Well, that's good, Eva, because I was thinking how much Jes' voice and my voice are alike.

Thank you. All these years I fancied myself as being able to perhaps hit a little soprano but I'm not even an alto, I'm a tenor in a dress.

I would be happy to trade voices with you, Jespah. When I heard a recording of myself, I sounded like a "British schoolgirl."

Your voice is dulcet and quite pleasant to the rest of us no matter how wierd it sounds to you. I've been told that I have a good speaking voice but it does not sound so to me. After years of conducting recorded interviews, dictating reports and various other information, and doing some radio and even a little TV work, I still do not recognize my own recorded voice and it doesn't sound like I think I sound. I do like my recorded singing voice though so I've just chalked all that up to one of those mysteries of life.

You'll just have to believe us Jes. You don't sound like a guy to us, and you have a very nice voice.

how wondrously mellifluous, such consonant accentuation

now about that healthy encounter at the gym

I love volleyball. (I was a fair basketball player too if I didn't have to dribble.)

Amazing to find out what we actually sound like to ears other than our own. Imagine my surprise to learn I have a Noo Yawk accent. You coulda knocked me over with a featha.

You have such a nice voice! Confident, calm, and yes dulcet (I just looked up the exact meaning ..).
Like Foxfyre, I recognize and like my singing voice but I don't recognize my voice when it's recorded and I don't like it either. Too silly-girlish.

I wish I had voice like yours - I'd be taken more seriously when I speak, especially in conference calls.

oh , to be taken more seriously, the very thought makes me feel silly- girlish, and yet curiously ive always loved the sound of my own voice, as in

i wish i had a voice like janet
i wish i had a voice like janet
i wish i had a voice like janet
cause janet's me mate


sing it again

Shniff you're all so shweet.

Your sig line is especially apropos here...

What are you all taking about voices? I have a freaking accent - that's worse!!!

You can't get any worse than a distinctive Southeastern New Mexico/West Texas accent that has been mixed with the uniquely Santa Fe dialect that is a language unto itself so that now I am accused of being everything from a Californian to a New Yorker. At least nobody can identify my location from my accent.
