What a fun thread! It's so surprising how we visualize each other ;D And hear each other in our heads.
If I have heard someone then I tend to read their posts in their voice and personality.
I thought Lisa and Denise were taller too! I am somewhere in between 5'10" and 5'11" haven't measured in a while (I think I may have shrunk some in my old age ;) ) the funny thing is I never "feel" tall?
At least not until Ronda gets on a bench in down town Disney and says "I just want to see how it feels to look around from your view point" - cheeky girl!

I do LOVE to wear heels though! When I do that then I feel tall, funny what a couple inches will do ;)

Regarding voices, I'm always surprised when I hear a recording of mine as it sounds deeper than I think it is. Do you consider yourself an alto or a bass? :)

Definitley!! ;)

My voice does my head in when I hear it on the family videos.
I hope I don't have that sound all the time. We've been watching back at our Florida/Dinsey trips very recently. I'm hoping that Disney makes me very excited. My voice is very loud and shrieky.
Whenever I talk about it Ade ends up telling me that I'm very loud.

Christine, your voice has a slight twang to it that I didn't expect. But it's a lovly sound.
Ronda to me just sounds very typical American. Normal sound if that makes sense.

Laura, have you picked up the Bristolean twang yet?

So, Olivia, are you really southern sounding then?

Reece Witherspoon was on a UK talk show last night, I never knew she was from the south. Lovely. I love that sound.

This is so fun, but I think your way of measuring heights is very annoying. ;) ;D

I think I have figured out that I'm about 5'4... :) I didn't think I was short until I realized one day that I was referring to someone taller than me as being short... ;D Nowadays I know that I'm a bit short but except for when I can't reach things on shelves and in cupboards, I don't mind. Oh, and on concerts... then a few more inches had been great. :D

I'm forever climbing Anna.
I climb on bottom shelves in the supermarkets and I jump onto the kitchen work surfaces and my desk and work spaces in the studio every day to reach things.

Lisa, I have to do that too. I am always asking the boys to reach things for me. Bill is 5 11 and Conner is just shy of 6ft. Jameson is probably about 5 8 so I am the short one. It's weird reaching up to hug or kiss them goodnight. :)

I always think my voice sounds really weird. I would love an accent, I pretend to have one in my head quite frequently. 8)

This is so fun..love this thread!

I pictured some of you so much taller than you actually are.

I 'm about 5'6- 5'7.
and I probably sound like a typical California girl. I mean 'like'...totally :D

This is such a fun thread! I'm 5'8" and don't feel tall until I wear heels :)

I feel shorter every day because my daughter is my height (she's 18) and my 14 y/o son is 5'4" and still growing!

I read many of you in an English accent and Olivia - I will recalibrate to read you as a Southern Belle ;)

Although I'm from the Boston area - many people say I never sound it......I think a lot of people have the impression that everyone in MA sounds like a Kennedy!! I am in NY now and have however been known to whip out a "Wicked good" or "No saaaa" (No sir) once in a while! My girlfriend from Staten Island always laughs at me - then I laugh and say "No YOU have an accent!" funny!
