Hand, yummy

Dr. J. F.,
No… but ‘the molesting of the air’ did get mentioned. Which is close, if you’ll recall.

I have to say, that was very cool (but WEIRD! I totally pictured you sounding different – I could never picture you in the hick accent you’ve described, but actually come to think of it I had absolutely no clue what I thought you sounded like. You didn’t end up sounding like a hick, rest assured) hearing your voice after reading Dooce for about a year now!

And by the way, Leta is going to grow up as one of those girls who I loathe – never mind the fact that she’s 15 years younger than me – because of her red hair and gorgeous colouring and the TALLNESS, OH THE TALLNESS! (says she who stands, rather bitterly, 5’4″.)

I heard the accent a little bit, probably because I’m from Minnesota and there’s a difference in speech pattern. It sounded fine, though. Great interview.

Johnny Fever. Jr. Watch your ass.

can somebody please post George!’s blog? i cant seem to find the link. thanks.

Enjoyed listening to your NPR interview. As far as “THE ACCENT” — I detected remnants of south, mixed with (and you’re not going to like this) “Midwest Wholesome” — the all American Girl so to speak.

Leta’s eyes are like liquid jewels. The intelligence that emanates from them is impressive.

first, i snorted @ “the husband” comment.

second, heather you sounded great. terrific job.

I know there’s some pscychology term for this, but for some reason I thought you’d sound like me. Your voice is much lower and subdued than I thought it would be. Awesome NPR blurb though, are you getting any more hits on your site now?

Also, i can’t believe I just mispelled psychology. Southern hick that I am.

I too have joined the throngs of blog royalty! I was dooced back in May. They put spyware in my computer that tracked my usage and it led them to my livejournal, a private entry, I might add, about gutting one of my co-workers like a fish. What. I was venting.

Dooce, you sound strong and sexy on the NPR interview.

Christine: Snort!
Heather B.: I thought you said you had an accent?

Heather –
Although my blog is extremely anonymous – no comments, no e-mail – I did take to heart your experience and your warning. Initially I had written two posts that left no doubt about where I worked and after I started reading your site I went back in and deleted them. They check my trunk when I arrive in the morning and I have to carry scannable ID with me when I wander around the lot. I can imagine that they would have no trouble finding out exactly what computer I’ve posted from at work. As the saying goes, “If you can’t be a good example, then you’ll just have to be a horrible warning.” So thanks for that. While I’m sorry that you got fired for venting your spleen, it seems that you are in a happier place AND you’re a VERB – now that’s pretty cool.

Okay, just adding to the throng who are saying, “You didn’t sound like I thought ya would!”. Basically, everything I’ve had to add to that has already been said. You have a good voice.

Loving Jon’s shoes in the picture where that adorable puppy is sitting on him! They should make those shoes in my size.

Doggies are cute. But, well, Leta… all I can say is CHEEKS!

And yeah, when I got home from my extremely long day and I checked dooce, I definitely can see that that top is not a sweater vest. Is it odd that I think a sweater vest on a baby would be adorable?

1) I would sell my soul to the devil in order to be on NPR, and I’m so jealous and proud of you that you got to be on it for *free*

2) Your voice is a lot deeper than I imagined… maybe it’s because you’re blonde. In any case, it’s sexy and I love it.

Congrats!

Your voice is nothing like I thought. I had imagined something a bit higher pitched, with a more pronounced southern accent. I’m glad I was proven wrong.

And Leta needs to stop being so cute, it’s making me want kids.

Hey, my daughter had pajama’s in that exact fabric and style.

ARE YOU DRESSING YOUR KID IN PAJAMA’S AT ALL HOURS?!?!

Oh wait, I did too

GOOD GRIEF those are cute pictures!!

Makes me want a puppy. Damn it.

I love the fly-away hair, but that shirt has PINK FLOWERS!!!! what are you doing to your child? That’s like more than once a year in pink!!

Oh and loved the dogpark photos – Mr Congressman, EMILY DOES NOT LOVE YOU BEST. (Mind you, that rottweiler looks mighty unimpressed at Emily’s canoozeling)

She’s SO cute!!

And I am so glad to hear your voice. Now I can imagine you saying all of the things you are writing.

I think the interview sounded very professional. You were worried for nothing and you sound a bit like…MaDonna!

Cute puppy pics and Leta is pretty in pink as usual! Looks like she’s almost due for her first trim! I remember back when she was a little baldy! lol

COPIES OF THE INTERVIEW!!
(Heather, if you don’t want me to do this, tell me !!!
I was able to get a very nice copy of the interview, and would provide a copy for anyone who can cover the cost of the CD + shipping, which would be about $2 in the USA.

Also, to anyone who wants to know: Heather sounds “sexy” in the interview because the board at the radio station “compresses” the voice, making it sound deeper – I am a female DJ, and always hear about how sexy I sound on the air – it was great to hear you!
