Or Larry, in the past, so I could drive a train.
I'd be Sally so I could spend a day playing with Leah.
I'd probably be Gail too. I've always wanted to go to Australia.
I'd like to be Clark so I could have hazy memories of the stuff he did back in the '70s.

Well OK then :-)

I think our sanity is irrelevant to this discussion.
Can't see your video, Barb, it says it's private. :)
Hmmm. You have a beautiful speaking voice, Barb, and it's pretty accent-less--until you get to the part of the recording where you say "I doubt it." On that phrase, you sound like the Mckenzie brothers' younger, smarter sister. Sorry, Canadian.
Your accent is very subtle and yes, you do have a beautiful voice!
I agree with everything that Jonathan said.

Dude. You TOTALLY sound like a Yank. ;)
My first clue - your pronunciation of "out"... sounded like "oat."
I'd probably sound like Gomer Pyle to you.
I'd be Jacks, so I could librarian it. I'd tell everyone to "SHHHHHHHHHHH!" and find great books for kids.
Or, I'd be Jim, so I could win at scrabble.
Or, I'd be Gail so I could be in Australia and go to a decent rugby match while drinking a beer and eating BBQ.
Ding Bat just walked in...therefore I would gladly be anyone of you who would be willing to switch for the next few hours at least. You can sit at my desk playing on the internet, reading a book or even watching Netflix on the computer. Anyone? Please???

Hazy? It's all crystal clear my friend.

I'd be Bun so I could spend time with Deor and be warm but not roasting in California.

I agree with Jim and Jonathan.

I will cherish this day!
I have 5 bosses and no coworkers. It's just the 5 partners and me. I'm the "everything" girl. On the flip side, when my work is done they let me do whatever I want. It balances out...almost all of the time. Four of them are great, really good guys. Then there is Ding Bat...or Dip Shit...or He Who Wanders...or Ding A Ling. He has lots of names. He is the single most annoying person I have ever met. Luckily he also has a very weak work ethic compounded by severe A.D.D., so he is often gone for days at a time, or leaves after only a couple of hours. While he is here he wanders around talking to himself REALLY LOUDLY, talks to his computer, talks to the stock market, sits in his office randomly shouting things to whoever of the guys cares to listen (none of them). He also can never speak plainly, always throwing out euphemisms. He's always "hitting the head" and "grabbing a shot of java" and "blowing out of here". Once, just once if he could get a cup of coffee, pee or leave I'd be thrilled! *sigh* Lastly, and my main irritation is that after 6 years he can never do anything correctly the first time. I have the other 4 trained to specific procedures and have simplified each process to cut down on errors. He NEVER does it properly, no matter what "it" is...never.
I know he isn't purposefully, maliciously, horrid. Yet, he is so extremely annoying that I come as close to hating him as anyone on the planet. I am forced to sit with my ear buds in listening to music loud enough to drown him out, or take frequent smoke breaks...

You do not want to be me! Especially right now 'cause this 19 year old can't focus 'cause she is kinda confused!

Amen!
Amen!

It's part of the job description.

I'd be Esme. It would be interesting. The first thing I'd do is go tell our dad about her secret tattoo.

Besides your conscience, who says you can't be?

No one wants to be Clark and make him apologize all day long? That would be funny.
I'd be Justin so I could go give my sweet baby sister a big hug and tell her that I love her really, even if I act like a poo to her most of the time. :)
Cross fingers - I think Ding Bat is leaving soon...

No it wouldn't. Sorry, Carol.

OH! Someone already took over him!
If I had the guts to cross the border, I wouldn't mind being Barb.
I wish I could talk politics and current events like Misha, BunWat and Ken.
I wish I was as young as Esme and iBritt. They have the world by the short hairs and don't even know it.
And Gail? Call this a wild guess, but Australia has to be better than Detroit, right?

Clark wrote: "Australia has to be better than Detroit, right?"Sydney does look nicer than the Motor City, at least based on Gail's photos.
Warmer at least, Clark (Australia that is).
I want to be either Jammies or Barb. Barb because I would have an awesome Canadian accent and Jammies because then I would know what it's like to be a ninja sock zombie.
I have never noticed an accent, Barb.
What... no one wants to live in Arkansas? Whyyyyyy?At least I'm single and have no responsibilities (well, besides Robby... oh, and a job).
Heidi wrote: "... oh, and a job"Where I could say words like "vagina" and "clitoris" and "vulvar," and no one would reprimand me... :)
Barb wrote: "I just vagina out loud and no one reprimanded me."At work?
Who's the one with the awesome pool? Was that Gail?
Misha wrote: "Stinky pear trees?"The stinky on the pear trees is already gone. Now it smells like green. And yellow pollen. :)
Barb wrote: "and I could walk around talking like a Southern Belle ..."Shut yer trap! I don't talk like a southern belle... take that back! You take that back, Barb!!!
:/
I wanna be Sarah Pi so I can ride horses and rock out and talk serious music talk with street cred. Or Anthony so I could hang with Mack and Peterbilt while I make my boys cook me some cupcakes and clean the house. :)
Or Sally to hang with Leah and Marla.
Or Bun so I could take dogs for a walk in Cali...
Barb wrote: "Pear tree's are stinky?"The Bradford Pear trees smell like rotten fried shrimp. No lie.
Shhhh, my nose is clogging just thinking about it! I'm not ready for that aspect of spring.

Barb wrote: "I'm confused as to why that's a negative thing? Wanna trade accents, eh?"But I doooon't talk like a Southern Belle! I'd have to really force it to sound like one.
Misha wrote: "Shouldn't that be "I do declare!" or "Fiddle-dee-dee"?"Sure... if I was a southern belle it would be. ;) But seeing as I'm NOT...
Barb wrote: "*makes grossed out face*"Yeah. They do look pretty, though, Barb. Right now the cherry blossom trees and the daffodils and the tulips and the redbuds and the dogwoods are in bloom. :)
I'd be Heidi so I could scritch Robbie. :)
