Do you hear what I hear? No?
Well, check your hearing aid then hit play.
(The recording only makes sense if you’ve read my previous BlogFestivus posts and are a regular reader of Shouts from the Abyss. Oh, and you know that Rudolph’s nose glows.)

/ December 5, 2011Your voice reminds me so much of a friend called Vicki. You’re not her, though, unless you’ve taken a new identity through police protection, which could be since she was related to … some Businessmen you don’t really want to exchange favors for.
Blogdramedy
/ December 5, 2011Well that’s got to be the most intriguing comment I’ve ever received.
I’d ask for more but I don’t think concrete shoes come in my size.

/ December 5, 2011Lady of the Rings, I send my “Eunuch” with sounding words of admiration.

/ December 5, 2011Love the change up of medium.
Blogdramedy
/ December 5, 2011Well, savor it…it will not be a regular feature. Just because it’s Christmas.
Amy
/ December 5, 2011Wow. What a way to class up this little challenge. Excellent!
Blogdramedy
/ December 5, 2011Yeah, right. I got nothing on The Original Bean. But, thanks for acknowledging my small efforts.
Becoming Bitter
/ December 5, 2011I’m jealous of your voice blogdramedy. Very dramatic sounding. *thumbs-up*
Blogdramedy
/ December 5, 2011Yeah…it’s the voice of doom. *scary noises*
stevebetz
/ December 5, 2011Great minds! I love the idea of Shouts sitting in his Abyss! Well done!!
Blogdramedy
/ December 6, 2011Great minds…*snicker*
I don’t know what it is about Shouts. He brings out the negative in me.
He’ll be so pleased.

/ December 5, 2011Congratulations on having the voice of doom! Good work re-incorporating.
It’s probably good you did the Lord of the Rings thing; otherwise I would have been tempted.
Blogdramedy
/ December 6, 2011Thanks! Not very original but the Mister just arrived back from 4 weeks away and I didn’t have time to get more creative.

/ December 5, 2011You know, I really wanted my day five to feature a certain kind of “ring,” especially one found around a collar or a bathtub. But, doggonit, you went and sublimely one-upped me once again. Wow. I’m in awe! Was that really 144 words?
I’ve got dancing feet! I just left my seat. I’m giddy. I’m intoxicated. In fact, I’m clapping my ass off for this. I’m ovating! (Or perhaps it’s just a one-person version of the wave.)
I salute you for so vibrantly bringing the spirit of BlogFestivus to life!
Blogdramedy
/ December 6, 2011Again with the positive comments. I’m impressed as hell. Don’t do it again.
Thanks and I hope you don’t mind me using you as my muse. You and doom. Like peanut butter and jelly.

/ December 5, 2011I can’t find this track on iTunes. Help!
Blogdramedy
/ December 6, 2011It’s on that other iTunes.
shoutabyss
/ December 6, 2011You know what? I’ll be damned but this thing just keeps on getting better with every listen. It gives me tingles! And construction on my throne is almost finished!
Blogdramedy
/ December 7, 2011I do tend to think of you in situations like this. I hope other readers aren’t getting jealous. I may have to branch out and touch someone else…when my iPod arrives.
My voice tends towards the dramatic. I have to work on that.
shoutabyss
/ December 7, 2011Damn that sounds hella ominous. It’s okay, though. I can get my voyeur on, too.
Blogdramedy
/ December 7, 2011Stop staring at me. Freak.
shoutabyss
/ December 10, 2011Sorry, no can do. And it’s weird, but until I heard this piece, I never wanted a ring in my nose before. You are indeed powerful.
Blogdramedy
/ December 10, 2011All the better to lead you with, my dear.
