An Essay

P1040308.JPG

David was kind enough to include an essay of mine in this weeks podcast. We recorded it last week, and I listened to it this morning on my way in to SSK.

It made sense to me, and I hope some people will be amused. Obviously I am convinced that I sound like a moron and that no-one will laugh, and that David is just humouring me by including it. The more rational part of my brain recognises that David really cares about the quality of his show, and he actually included it because it doesn’t suck. So I am going with the grown up interpretation, and hoping that I get good comments about it.

The bunnies (from left to right Vernon, Vice and Virtue) live with my friend Damian (not a knitter), and he was kind enough to loan them to us for a week while he went to a conference in QLD. He was also kind enough to give us a case of wine for the privilege. Yes ladies, he’s single….

And another FO. Last night I gave Andrew his birthday cross stitch, and he just sent me a cameraphone pic that I can put on the blog…

  1. This already has pride of place on the wall in the kitchen, and makes the room seem much more bright and gay. It is nice to see that the fibre arts continue to remain relevant in this hurley burley modern world.

  2. Your essay was fantastic. I loved it! Your voice sounded wonderful, and the essay well written.

    I felt very insecure about my voice when I started recording too, but after a while it just becomes normal.

    The way you hear your voice inside your head is different than the way other people hear it, and different from the way it sounds recorded, so that’s why it can feel so strange to listen to the playback. =)

  3. Great essay Lara – witty and succinct – and you sounded clear and calm although you probably didn’t feel that way. (also spot the yarn shop was good too – I think I got them all :-))
    Well done.
