Playback

I came into work this morning and had to re-record my voicemail message on our fancy new phones.

Turns out playback's a bitch...

#1.  I know I've been in Chicago for almost a decade, but when did I start to sound like this?


And #2.  I knew I had a nasally voice, but when did I become this guy??



To make things worse, it took three tries to figure out how to say my name without sounding at first confused, and then scared, and then like Hitler.  

It took another six tries to figure out how to get through the suggested recorded greeting without stuttering "To b-b-bypass this greeting..."

Oy vey.
