Baby’s First Audio Post
April 11th, 2006 Posted in Audiopost
Let the high-pitched tone of my voice soothe you. Ponder why I choose to speak directions to myself into the phone. “Press pound.” Hear panic first hand as my speech quickens when I realize that I have no fucking clue what I’m doing. (Actually, to be honest … I can’t blame the fast talking on my panic; I generally tend to talk reallyreally fast under normal situations, too. But, no, I’m not on drugs—recreational or otherwise.) For the record, kiddies, never … and I mean never … did I ever claim that I was *not* a goofball.

Haha! I just added this feature, too. It did well recording my computer ‘acting’ as Stephen Hawking to endorse my blog, which turned out to be hilarious.
However, I tried to use it tonight to tell a joke and it didn’t turn out so well. After recording it 10 times, the magic of the joke was over and it didn’t sound spontaneous and cool like yours. *sigh*
Encore! More! Author!

Nice voice.
First we see Stolie, well parts of her, and now we hear Stolie. What’s next?

Haha, I love it. As further proof we are in fact cybertwins, I’ll have you know this is exactly what I sound like when testing any new voice recording device. If you want proof, next time we get together I’ll play you the first voice recording I made on my iPod.

A lovely voice to now go with the image of my funky divette.

Pretty cool!

Fucking fantastic I say! Made my day.

Howard: You’re very creative! :-) And, yeah, I’ll probably do another audio post now that I know how the whole thing works.
AWE: Tune in tomorrow to see / hear the voyeuristic blog relationship continue here at the Funky Brown Chick! What will Stolie do next?!?!! :)
Sid : We have to get together again soon!!! And, yes, bring the iPod!!! :)
Tonito Bandito: I totally and completely *adore* you, pumpkin!!! :)
Mel Chickk: It took me ages to figure out exactly how it works, but it turns out that it’s a lot easier than I thought it would be in the beginning.
ErikWithaK: Anything to “make the day” for one of my readers! :)

pretty nifty! you sound very pleasant.
April 11th, 2006 at 7:53 pm
you are such a dork. so…where’s the audio blog??
ps. hi.
April 11th, 2006 at 10:22 pm
Dear Lovey Heart: Thank you!!! :)
Anhoni Patel: I try my best! :) Yeah, the audio blog is coming. Bit by bit. The first step was to see if I could figure it all out. The next step is to actually audioblog an entire post. The Funky Brown Chick will never go 100% audio; it’ll just be an occasional thing. By the way, I’m glad you’re back; I wondered where you went. :)

Hey a voice without an accent. You must be from Chicago!
April 12th, 2006 at 12:36 am
Chicagoans have the best accent in the world! :)

You know, I never expected you to sound like a California “Valley Girl,” but I think you do. Nice voice!
(By the way, did you know I also named my first audio post, “Baby’s First Audio Post”? Great minds think alike, Stols.)

Really?!?! Just now, I scrolled through your archives to try to find your post. It was a while ago, no? I remember listening to it, but I didn’t remember the title was the same. Very funny! :)
And, what’s this about a Valley Girl?!?!?!

Fast talker? Not at all! I could still understand you and it sounded like you were breathing… If you really want to learn to talk fast, I’ll introduce you to my sister-in-law – but then you’ll have to learn Spanglish

I didn’t expect you to sound so young. God, I’m getting old.
April 12th, 2006 at 8:13 am
lala: Wow! Your sister-in-law speaks Spanish?
goldennib: No, no, no … don’t feel old. Really, I’ve been told by plenty o’ people that my voice sounds young. (I’ll probably be a 91-year-old great great gramma with the exact same voice!)

Well, that was the excitement for my day! LOL Press enter *click*

Fuckin’ awesome, baby!
April 12th, 2006 at 11:36 pm
Thanks babes! :)
April 13th, 2006 at 12:35 pm
I have to agree. I didn’t expect you to sound so young. Totally destroyed my mental image of you.
April 13th, 2006 at 2:18 pm
Hey, hey, hey now. None of this “voice-ism” shit. I’m still the same Stolie that you know and love. And, by the way, if it counts for anything … my voice gets really low and deep when I have a cold. ;)

“press pound”
I love it. Make more audioposts!

Baby steps. Baby steps. :) Once I get my head around audioblogging, I may upgrade to videoblogging next.
