i thought, let's get out early, eh? glad i didn't.

AY1 TH-AO1 T-L-EH1-T-S G-EH1 T-AW1 T-ER1 L-IY0 EH1 G-L-AE1 D-AY1 D-IH1 D-AH0-N-T


so yeah, that did happen and that is truthful. and when you find out-

S-OW1 Y-AE1 DH-AE1-T D-IH1-D HH-AE1 P-AH0 N-AH0-N-D DH-AE1 T-IH1-Z T-R-UW1-TH F-AH0 L-AH0-N D-W-EH1 N-Y-UW1 F-AY1-N D-AW1-T


it's terrible, i know. but exit, i felt quite aggressive in their advertising because you think about it. how many rooms have you been in this way with a green exit sign?

IH1-T-S T-EH1 R-AH0 B-AH0 L-AY1 N-OW1 B-AH1 T-EH1-G Z-IH0 T-AY1 F-EH1-L-T K-W-AY1 T-AH0 G-R-EH1 S-IH0 V-IH0-N DH-EH1 R-AE1-D V-ER0 T-AY2 Z-IH0-NG B-IH0 K-AO1 Z-Y-UW1 TH-IH1-NG K-AH0 B-AW1 T-IH1-T HH-AW1 M-EH1 N-IY0 R-UW1-M-Z HH-AE1 V-Y-UW1 B-IH1 N-IH0-N DH-IH1 S-W-EY1 W-IH1 DH-AH0 G-R-IY1 N-EH1-G Z-IH0-T S-AY1-N


you know? and then my hospital, there's an emergency exit for people. so they don't have to do the paperwork.

Y-UW1 N-OW1 AH0-N-D DH-EH1-N M-AY1 HH-AA1-S P-IH2 T-AH0-L DH-EH1-R Z-AE1 N-IH0 M-ER1 JH-AH0-N S-IY0 EH1-G Z-IH0-T F-AO1-R P-IY1 P-AH0-L S-OW1 DH-EY1 D-AA1-N-T HH-AE1-V T-UW1 D-UW1 DH-AH0 P-EY1 P-ER0 W-ER2-K


they just get to go. and so i joined and it was so strange because...

DH-EY1 JH-AH1-S-T G-EH1-T T-UW1 G-OW1 AH0-N-D S-OW1 AY1 JH-OY1-N D-AH0-N D-IH1 T-W-AA1-Z S-OW1-S T-R-EY1-N-JH B-IH0 K-AO1-Z


i joined for a bigger reason than just me. i'm a mum.

AY1 JH-OY1-N-D F-AO1 R-AH0 B-IH1 G-ER0 R-IY1 Z-AH0-N DH-AE1-N JH-AH1-S T-M-IY1 IH1 M-AH0 M-AH1-M


and you heard that right. i have children.

AH0-N D-Y-UW1 HH-ER1-D DH-AE1 T-R-AY1 T-AY1 HH-AE1-V CH-IH1-L D-R-AH0-N


and that may evoke very strong reactions from some of you.

AH0-N-D DH-AE1 T-M-EY1 IH0 V-OW1-K V-EH1 R-IY0-S T-R-AO1 NG-R-IY0 AE1-K SH-AH0-N-Z F-R-AH1-M S-AH1 M-AH1 V-Y-UW1


because having children is a huge responsibility.

B-IH0 K-AO1-Z HH-AE1 V-IH0-NG CH-IH1-L D-R-AH0 N-IH1 Z-AH0 HH-Y-UW1 JH-R-IY0-S P-AA2-N S-AH0 B-IH1 L-AH0 T-IY0


i love my kids. i have two. they're 10 and four.

AY1 L-AH1 V-M-AY1 K-IH1-D Z-AY1 HH-AE1-V T-UW1 TH-EH1-R T-EH1 N-AH0-N-D F-AO1-R


best little kids in the world. both boys. they're not here today. they're at home.

on their own because the way i see it, if you can use a playstation, which is pretty damn complicated, you can dial 999.

AA1-N DH-EH1 R-OW1-N B-IH0 K-AO1-Z DH-AH0 W-EY1 AY1 S-IY1 IH1 T-IH1 F-Y-UW1 K-AE1 N-Y-UW1 Z-AH0 P-L-EY1-S T-EY2 SH-AH0 N-W-IH1 CH-IH1-Z P-R-IH1 T-IY0 D-AE1-M K-AA1-M P-L-AH0 K-EY2 T-AH0 D-Y-UW1 K-AE1-N D-AY1 AH0-L N-AY1-N N-AY1-N T-IY0 N-AY1-N


let's be real here. but everything-

L-EH1-T-S B-IY1 R-IY1-L HH-IY1-R B-AH1 T-EH1 V-R-IY0 TH-IH2-NG


you make a promise that you'll be there to look after them for the rest of your life, make sure they never fearful of anything, that they don't want for anything.

Y-UW1 M-EY1 K-AH0 P-R-AA1 M-AH0-S DH-AE1 T-Y-UW1-L B-IY1 DH-EH1-R T-UW1 L-UH1 K-AE1-F T-ER0 DH-EH1-M F-AO1-R DH-AH0 R-EH1-S T-AH1 V-Y-AO1-R L-AY1 F-M-EY1-K SH-UH1-R DH-EY1 N-EH1 V-ER0 F-IH1-R F-AH0 L-AH1 V-EH1 N-IY0 TH-IH2-NG DH-AE1-T DH-EY1 D-AA1-N T-W-AA1-N-T F-AO1 R-EH1 N-IY0 TH-IH2-NG


what happens when you're the thing they're scared of?

W-AH1-T HH-AE1 P-AH0-N Z-W-EH1 N-Y-UH1-R DH-AH0 TH-IH1-NG TH-EH1-R-S K-EH1-R D-AH1-V


what happens when your 10-year-old says to you before he goes to bed, "mommy, i-"

W-AH1-T HH-AE1 P-AH0-N Z-W-EH1 N-Y-AO1-R T-EH2 N-IY0 R-OW1 G-AH0-L S-EH1-Z T-UW1 Y-UW1 B-IH0 F-AO1-R HH-IY1 G-OW1-Z T-UW1 B-EH1 D-M-AA1 M-IY0 AY1


when you've made a promise, you will never lie to your children.

W-EH1 N-Y-UW1 V-M-EY1 D-AH0 P-R-AA1 M-AH0 S-Y-UW1 W-IH1-L N-EH1 V-ER0 L-AY1 T-UW1 Y-AO1-R CH-IH1-L D-R-AH0-N


and i was very lucky in that my dad, when i was a little girl...

AH0-N D-AY1 W-AA1-Z V-EH1 R-IY0 L-AH1 K-IY0 IH0-N DH-AE1 T-M-AY1 D-AE1 D-W-EH1 N-AY1 W-AA1 Z-AH0 L-IH1 T-AH0-L G-ER1-L


i had the same dream about him. and he told me that if you dream that someone's going to die, it's okay.

AY1 HH-AE1-D DH-AH0 S-EY1-M D-R-IY1 M-AH0 B-AW1-T HH-IH1 M-AH0-N-D HH-IY1 T-OW1-L D-M-IY1 DH-AE1 T-IH1 F-Y-UW1 D-R-IY1-M DH-AE1-T S-AH1 M-OW2-N-Z G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 D-AY1 IH1-T S-OW2 K-EY1


just means you're going to get closer to that person. so i was able to tell my 10-year-old that.

JH-AH1-S T-M-IY1-N Z-Y-UW1 AA1-R G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 G-EH1-T K-L-OW1 S-ER0 T-UW1 DH-AE1-T P-ER1 S-AH0-N S-OW1 AY1 W-AA1 Z-EY1 B-AH0-L T-UW1 T-EH1-L M-AY1 T-EH2 N-IY0 R-OW1 G-AH0-L DH-AE1-T


which is a good thing today. and i wasn't selfish.

W-IH1 CH-IH1 Z-AH0 G-UH1-D TH-IH1-NG T-AH0 D-EY1 AH0-N D-AY1 W-AO1-S-T S-EH1-L F-IH0-SH


and the way i saw it is every single day they spent worrying that i was going to die was one single day they-

AH0-N-D DH-AH0 W-EY1 AY1 S-AO1 IH1 T-IH1 Z-EH1 V-ER0 IY0 S-IH1-NG G-AH0-L D-EY1 DH-EY1-S P-EH1-N T-W-ER1 IY0 IH0-NG DH-AE1 T-AY1 W-AA1-Z G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 D-AY1 W-AA1 Z-W-AH1-N S-IH1-NG G-AH0-L D-EY1 DH-EY1


so in my head, you rip off the bandaid and it hurts like fuck.

S-OW1 IH0-N M-AY1 HH-EH1 D-Y-UW1 R-IH1 P-AO1-F DH-AH0 B-AE1-N D-EY0 D-AH0-N D-IH1-T HH-ER1-T S-L-AY1-K F-AH1-K


but eventually they get to play again and they will play again.

B-AH1 T-IH0 V-EH1-N CH-AH0 W-AH0 L-IY0 DH-EY1 G-EH1-T T-UW1 P-L-EY1 AH0 G-EH1 N-AH0-N-D DH-EY1 W-IH1-L P-L-EY1 AH0 G-EH1-N


and that's why i did what i did.

AH0-N-D TH-AE1-T S-W-AY1 AY1 D-IH1 D-W-AH1 T-AY1 D-IH1-D


and you're really getting a condensed version here, ladies and gentlemen. i can feel the judgment.

i'll let you into a little secret about my kids though, and it's more just me. i'm from burnley, has anyone ever been to burnley?

i'll let you [inaudible 00:04:38] my kids, right, don't have the same dad. i know, from burnley as well. you fucking knew.

IH1-L L-EH1 T-Y-UW1 IH0 N-AO1 D-AH0 B-AH0-L Z-IH1 R-OW0 AW1 ER0-Z F-AO1-R M-IH1 N-AH0-T S-AH0-N-D TH-ER1 D-IY0 EY1-T S-EH1 K-AH0-N-D Z-M-AY1 K-IH1-D Z-R-AY1-T D-AA1-N-T HH-AE1-V DH-AH0 S-EY1-M D-AE1 D-AY1 N-OW1 F-R-AH1-M B-ER1 N-L-IY0 AE1 Z-W-EH1 L-Y-UW1 F-AH1 K-IH0-NG N-UW1


no, when i was young...


i started off reading voraciously as soon as i could read, grabbing-

AY1-S T-AA1-R T-AH0 D-AO1 F-R-EH1 D-IH0-NG V-AO2 R-EY1 SH-AH0 S-L-IY0 AE1-Z S-UW1 N-AE1 Z-AY1 K-UH1 D-R-EH1-D G-R-AE1 B-IH0-NG


i could. and i was reading those things and it [inaudible 00:05:01]-

AY1 K-UH1 D-AH0-N D-AY1 W-AA1 Z-R-EH1 D-IH0-NG DH-OW1-Z TH-IH1-NG Z-AH0-N D-IH1 T-IH0 N-AO1 D-AH0 B-AH0-L Z-IH1 R-OW0 AW1 ER0-Z F-AY1 V-M-IH1 N-AH0-T S-AH0-N D-W-AH1-N S-EH1 K-AH0-N-D


if anyone's from that sort of era, books for kids.

IH1 F-EH1 N-IY0 W-AH2-N-Z F-R-AH1-M DH-AE1-T S-AO1-R T-AH1 V-EH1 R-AH0 B-UH1-K-S F-AO1-R K-IH1-D-Z


one, i don't know, it was a birthday...

W-AH1 N-AY1 D-AA1-N T-N-OW1 IH1 T-W-AA1 Z-AH0 B-ER1-TH D-EY2


this book dropped into my life. it was a doctor who book.

DH-IH1-S B-UH1-K D-R-AA1-P T-IH0-N T-UW1 M-AY1 L-AY1 F-IH1 T-W-AA1 Z-AH0 D-AA1-K T-ER0 HH-UW1 B-UH1-K


the most important cultural phenomenon perhaps ever.

DH-AH0 M-OW1-S T-IH0-M P-AO1-R T-AH0-N-T K-AH1-L CH-ER0 AH0-L F-AH0 N-AA1 M-AH0 N-AA2-N P-ER0 HH-AE1-P S-EH1 V-ER0


and this book changed my life.

AH0-N-D DH-IH1-S B-UH1-K CH-EY1-N-JH D-M-AY1 L-AY1-F


this book was amazing. it opened up huge worlds in my imagination.

DH-IH1-S B-UH1 K-W-AA1 Z-AH0 M-EY1 Z-IH0 NG-IH1 T-OW1 P-AH0-N D-AH1-P HH-Y-UW1 JH-W-ER1-L-D Z-IH0-N M-AY1 IH0 M-AE2 JH-AH0 N-EY1 SH-AH0-N


but this book was an incredible. it was doctor who and the demons in case you want to know.

B-AH1-T DH-IH1-S B-UH1 K-W-AA1 Z-AE1 N-IH0-N K-R-EH1 D-AH0 B-AH0 L-IH1 T-W-AA1-Z D-AA1-K T-ER0 HH-UW1 AH0-N-D DH-AH0 D-IY1 M-AH0-N Z-IH0-N K-EY1 S-Y-UW1 W-AA1-N-T T-UW1 N-OW1


and i think i read two or three before i actually got to see the show.

AH0-N D-AY1 TH-IH1-NG K-AY1 R-EH1-D T-UW1 AO1-R TH-R-IY1 B-IH0 F-AO1 R-AY1 AE1-K CH-AH0 W-AH0 L-IY0 G-AA1-T T-UW1 S-IY1 DH-AH0 SH-OW1


and by that time, my head was full of all these worlds.

AH0-N-D B-AY1 DH-AE1-T T-AY1-M M-AY1 HH-EH1 D-W-AA1-Z F-UH1 L-AH1 V-AO1-L DH-IY1 Z-W-ER1-L-D-Z


it was the final episode in doctor who and the day the daleks... remember that one?

IH1 T-W-AA1-Z DH-AH0 F-AY1 N-AH0 L-EH1 P-AH0 S-OW2 D-IH0-N D-AA1-K T-ER0 HH-UW1 AH0-N-D DH-AH0 D-EY1 DH-AH0 D-AE1 L-AH0-K S-R-IH0 M-EH1-M B-ER0 DH-AE1 T-W-AH1-N


no? wrong crowd?


do you want more of the plot? i'll leave it there, okay. it's this...

D-UW1 Y-UW1 W-AA1-N T-M-AO1 R-AH1-V DH-AH0 P-L-AA1 T-IH1-L L-IY1 V-IH1-T DH-EH1 R-OW2 K-EY1 IH1-T-S DH-IH1-S


this was so much better at comic-con, i'll tell you.

DH-IH1 S-W-AA1-Z S-OW1 M-AH1-CH B-EH1 T-ER0 AE1-T K-AA1 M-IY0 K-AA2 N-IH1-L T-EH1 L-Y-UW1


so i remember that there were daleks and there were these creatures called ogrons, strange neanderthal-type creatures,

S-OW1 AY1 R-IH0 M-EH1-M B-ER0 DH-AE1-T DH-EH1 R-W-ER0 D-AE1 L-AH0-K S-AH0-N-D DH-EH1 R-W-ER0 DH-IY1-Z K-R-IY1 CH-ER0-Z K-AO1-L D-OW1 G-R-AH0-N-Z-S T-R-EY1-N JH-N-IY2 AE1-N D-ER0 TH-AO2 L-Y-AE0-T K-R-IY1 CH-ER0-Z


driving across some lawn. it was all quite cheap.

D-R-AY1 V-IH0 NG-AH0 K-R-AO1-S S-AH1 M-L-AO1 N-IH1 T-W-AA1 Z-AO1-L K-W-AY1-T CH-IY1-P


but to my seven-year-old mind, it was just incredible.

B-AH1-T T-UW1 M-AY1 S-EH2 V-IY0 N-IY0 AA1-R L-IY0 D-M-AY1-N D-IH1 T-W-AA1-Z JH-AH1-S T-IH0-N K-R-EH1 D-AH0 B-AH0-L


but i knew i liked it, a bit like sex when you start doing that.

B-AH1 T-AY1 N-UW1 AY1 L-AY1-K T-IH1 T-AH0 B-IH1 T-L-AY1-K S-EH1-K S-W-EH1 N-Y-UW1-S T-AA1-R-T D-UW1 IH0-NG DH-AE1-T


so i became a huge fan.

S-OW1 AY1 B-IH0 K-EY1 M-AH0 HH-Y-UW1-JH F-AE1-N


this program filled my life in my early years and i collected more and more books.

DH-IH1-S P-R-OW1 G-R-AE2-M F-IH1-L D-M-AY1 L-AY1 F-IH0-N M-AY1 ER1 L-IY0 Y-IH1-R Z-AH0-N D-AY1 K-AH0 L-EH1-K T-AH0 D-M-AO1 R-AH0-N D-M-AO1-R B-UH1-K-S


i made sure i saw the show every saturday when it was on. i had some friends who were similarly devoted to the program. and this is an era, again...

AY1 M-EY1-D SH-UH1 R-AY1 S-AO1 DH-AH0 SH-OW1 EH1 V-ER0 IY0 S-AE1 T-ER0 D-IY0 W-EH1 N-IH1 T-W-AA1 Z-AA1 N-AY1 HH-AE1-D S-AH1-M F-R-EH1-N-D-Z HH-UW1 W-ER0 S-IH1 M-AH0 L-ER0 L-IY0 D-IH0 V-OW1 T-AH0-D T-UW1 DH-AH0 P-R-OW1 G-R-AE2 M-AH0-N-D DH-IH1 S-IH1 Z-AE1 N-EH1 R-AH0 AH0 G-EH1-N


there's some more youthful faces here... when there were no videos.

DH-EH1-R-Z S-AH1-M M-AO1 R-Y-UW1-TH F-AH0-L F-EY1 S-AH0-Z HH-IY1 R-W-EH1-N DH-EH1 R-W-ER0 N-OW1 V-IH1 D-IY0 OW0-Z


never mind dvds. there weren't videos that you could go and get. they were just the books.

N-EH1 V-ER0 M-AY1-N-D-D V-EH1-D-Z DH-EH1 R-W-EH1 R-AH0-N-T V-IH1 D-IY0 OW0-Z DH-AE1 T-Y-UW1 K-UH1-D G-OW1 AH0-N-D G-EH1-T DH-EY1 W-ER0 JH-AH1-S-T DH-AH0 B-UH1-K-S


these books were quite precious. me and a few friends, we used to gather together.

DH-IY1-Z B-UH1-K S-W-ER0 K-W-AY1-T P-R-EH1 SH-AH0 S-M-IY1 AH0-N D-AH0 F-Y-UW1 F-R-EH1-N-D Z-W-IY1 Y-UW1-S-T T-UW1 G-AE1 DH-ER0 T-AH0 G-EH1 DH-ER0


we had all the books and we used to bring them all to someone's house and then just lay them out on the floor.

W-IY1 HH-AE1 D-AO1-L DH-AH0 B-UH1-K S-AH0-N D-W-IY1 Y-UW1-S-T T-UW1 B-R-IH1-NG DH-EH1 M-AO1-L T-UW1 S-AH1 M-OW2-N-Z HH-AW1 S-AH0-N-D DH-EH1-N JH-AH1-S T-L-EY1 DH-EH1 M-AW1 T-AA1-N DH-AH0 F-L-AO1-R


i don't know why. there was nothing else we could do. that was it.

AY1 D-AA1-N T-N-OW1 W-AY1 DH-EH1 R-W-AA1 Z-N-AH1 TH-IH0 NG-EH1-L S-W-IY1 K-UH1-D D-UW1 DH-AE1 T-W-AA1 Z-IH1-T


that was the extent of what we could actually do with doctor who at that time.

DH-AE1 T-W-AA1-Z DH-AH0 IH0-K-S T-EH1-N T-AH1 V-W-AH1 T-W-IY1 K-UH1 D-AE1-K CH-AH0 W-AH0 L-IY0 D-UW1 W-IH1-DH D-AA1-K T-ER0 HH-UW1 AE1-T DH-AE1-T T-AY1-M


that's not tragic, that's fine. that's just lovely. we were kids.

TH-AE1-T S-N-AA1-T T-R-AE1 JH-IH0-K TH-AE1-T-S F-AY1-N TH-AE1-T-S JH-AH1-S T-L-AH1 V-L-IY0 W-IY1 W-ER0 K-IH1-D-Z


there was an exhibition, a big tour. and we went on a big trip, a day trip and saw some costumes.

DH-EH1 R-W-AA1 Z-AE1 N-EH2-K S-AH0 B-IH1 SH-AH0 N-AH0 B-IH1-G T-UH1 R-AH0-N D-W-IY1 W-EH1-N T-AA1 N-AH0 B-IH1-G T-R-IH1 P-AH0 D-EY1 T-R-IH1 P-AH0-N-D S-AO1 S-AH1-M K-AA0-S T-UW1-M-Z


as i got into my teenage years, life changed a bit. like any teenager, you devote more time to chess.

AE1 Z-AY1 G-AA1 T-IH0-N T-UW1 M-AY1 T-IY1 N-EY2 JH-Y-IH1-R Z-L-AY1-F CH-EY1-N-JH D-AH0 B-IH1 T-L-AY1 K-EH1 N-IY0 T-IY1 N-EY2 JH-ER0 Y-UW1 D-IH0 V-OW1 T-M-AO1-R T-AY1-M T-UW1 CH-EH1-S


and there was exams.

AH0-N-D DH-EH1 R-W-AA1 Z-IH0-G Z-AE1-M-Z


i was at boys' school, but i'm a sort of 14, 15.

AY1 W-AA1 Z-AE1-T B-OY1-Z-S K-UW1-L B-AH1 T-AY1 AE1 M-AH0 S-AO1-R T-AH1-V F-AO1-R T-IY1-N F-IH0-F T-IY1-N


i wasn't watching quite as much. and then as i went to college, even less so, and let's face it in the end. in the eighties, it became a bit like a pantomime.

AY1 W-AO1-S T-W-AA1 CH-IH0-NG K-W-AY1 T-AE1 Z-M-AH1 CH-AH0-N-D DH-EH1 N-AE1 Z-AY1 W-EH1-N-T T-UW1 K-AA1 L-IH0 JH-IY1 V-IH0 N-L-EH1-S S-OW1 AH0-N D-L-EH1-T-S F-EY1 S-IH1 T-IH0-N DH-AH0 EH1-N D-IH0-N DH-AH0 EY1 T-IY0 Z-IH1-T B-IH0 K-EY1 M-AH0 B-IH1 T-L-AY1 K-AH0 P-AE1-N T-AH0 M-AY2-M


i was just happy that there were seven-year-olds, like my earliest seven-year-old, who could be similarly enthused by this program.

AY1 W-AA1-Z JH-AH1-S-T HH-AE1 P-IY0 DH-AE1-T DH-EH1 R-W-ER0 S-EH2 V-IY0 N-IY0 AA1 L-IY0-D Z-L-AY1 K-M-AY1 ER1 L-IY0 AH0-S-T S-EH2 V-IY0 N-IY0 AA1-R L-IY0-D HH-UW1 K-UH1-D B-IY1 S-IH1 M-AH0 L-ER0 L-IY0 IH0-N TH-UW1-Z-D B-AY1 DH-IH1-S P-R-OW1 G-R-AE2-M


so i watched and i enjoyed it and my sister works in theater.

S-OW1 AY1 W-AA1-CH T-AH0-N D-AY1 EH0-N JH-OY1 D-IH1 T-AH0-N D-M-AY1 S-IH1-S T-ER0 W-ER1-K S-IH0-N TH-IY1 AH0 T-ER0


so my sister invited me to the press night and also...

S-OW1 M-AY1 S-IH1-S T-ER0 IH0-N V-AY1 T-AH0 D-M-IY1 T-UW1 DH-AH0 P-R-EH1 S-N-AY1 T-AH0-N D-AO1-L S-OW0


does this mean anything, david?

...who played doctor who, i think he was near the end of his tenure at that point, was going to be there.

i was going to be in the same room and i would get to hang out with him all night.

AY1 W-AA1-Z G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 B-IY1 IH0-N DH-AH0 S-EY1 M-R-UW1 M-AH0-N D-AY1 W-UH1-D G-EH1-T T-UW1 HH-AE1 NG-AW1 T-W-IH1-DH HH-IH1 M-AO1-L N-AY1-T


so i went along to see the play.

S-OW1 AY1 W-EH1-N T-AH0 L-AO1-NG T-UW1 S-IY1 DH-AH0 P-L-EY1


this could be the tragic bit. it gets worse. by that stage-

DH-IH1-S K-UH1-D B-IY1 DH-AH0 T-R-AE1 JH-IH0-K B-IH1 T-IH1-T G-EH1-T S-W-ER1-S B-AY1 DH-AE1-T-S T-EY1-JH


i think i'm about 47 or 48, much younger than the person you see here.

AY1 TH-IH1-NG K-AY1 AE1 M-AH0 B-AW1-T F-AO1-R T-IY0 S-EH1 V-AH0 N-AO1-R F-AO1-R T-IY0 EY1 T-M-AH1 CH-Y-AH1-NG G-ER0 DH-AE1-N DH-AH0 P-ER1 S-AH0 N-Y-UW1 S-IY1 HH-IY1-R


and yet, i still really want to see david tennant. isn't that really sad?

AH0-N D-Y-EH1 T-AY1-S T-IH1-L R-IH1 L-IY0 W-AA1-N-T T-UW1 S-IY1 D-EY1 V-IH0-D T-EH1 N-AH0-N T-IH1 S-AH0-N-T DH-AE1 T-R-IH1 L-IY0 S-AE1-D


i know i'm not quite as devoted as that seven-year-old, but it's just something inside me.

AY1 N-OW1 IH1-M N-AA1-T K-W-AY1 T-AE1-Z D-IH0 V-OW1 T-AH0 D-AE1-Z DH-AE1-T S-EH2 V-IY0 N-IY0 AA1-R L-IY0-D B-AH1 T-IH1-T-S JH-AH1-S-T S-AH1-M TH-IH0 NG-IH0-N S-AY1 D-M-IY1


...talking about light fittings with my sister. god is this-

T-AO1 K-IH0 NG-AH0 B-AW1 T-L-AY1-T F-IH1 T-IH0-NG Z-W-IH1 DH-M-AY1 S-IH1-S T-ER0 G-AA1 D-IH1-Z DH-IH1-S


so she ushers them down towards the sort of vip drinks thing that i'm at.

S-OW1 SH-IY1 AH1 SH-ER0-Z DH-EH1-M D-AW1-N T-AH0 W-AO1-R-D-Z DH-AH0 S-AO1-R T-AH1-V V-IH1-P D-R-IH1-NG-K-S TH-IH1-NG DH-AE1 T-IH1 M-AE1-T


i'm there with my friend ben and we've had a few drinks. i just say to ben, "i just need to go to the loo."

IH1-M DH-EH1 R-W-IH1 DH-M-AY1 F-R-EH1-N-D B-EH1 N-AH0-N D-W-IY1-V HH-AE1 D-AH0 F-Y-UW1 D-R-IH1-NG-K S-AY1 JH-AH1-S-T S-EY1 T-UW1 B-EH1 N-AY1 JH-AH1-S T-N-IY1-D T-UW1 G-OW1 T-UW1 DH-AH0 L-UW1


all the names hadn't arrived by that stage. and ben just grabs me before going to the loo. and he says-

AO1-L DH-AH0 N-EY1-M-Z HH-AE1 D-AH0-N T-ER0 AY1-V-D B-AY1 DH-AE1-T-S T-EY1 JH-AH0-N-D B-EH1-N JH-AH1-S-T G-R-AE1-B Z-M-IY1 B-IH0 F-AO1-R G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 DH-AH0 L-UW1 AH0-N-D HH-IY1 S-EH1-Z


"you know who's just come in? david tennant's just come in and he's gone to the loo."

Y-UW1 N-OW1 HH-UW1-Z JH-AH1-S-T K-AH1 M-IH0-N D-EY1 V-IH0-D T-EH1 N-AH0-N-T-S JH-AH1-S-T K-AH1 M-IH0 N-AH0-N-D HH-IY1-Z G-AO1-N T-UW1 DH-AH0 L-UW1


now at this stage, i'm thinking, well i need to go to the loo.

N-AW1 AE1-T DH-IH1-S-S T-EY1 JH-IH1-M TH-IH1-NG K-IH0 NG-W-EH1 L-AY1 N-IY1-D T-UW1 G-OW1 T-UW1 DH-AH0 L-UW1


yeah, jesus. that is bright, for crying out loud.

Y-AE1 JH-IY1 Z-AH0-S DH-AE1 T-IH1-Z B-R-AY1-T F-AO1-R K-R-AY1 IH0 NG-AW1 T-L-AW1-D


actually you've all disappeared, which probably is a bit of a tragedy as well.

AE1-K CH-AH0 W-AH0 L-IY0 Y-UW1 V-AO1-L D-IH2 S-AH0 P-IH1-R D-W-IH1-CH P-R-AA1 B-AH0 B-L-IY0 IH1 Z-AH0 B-IH1 T-AH1 V-AH0 T-R-AE1 JH-AH0 D-IY0 AE1 Z-W-EH1-L


i'm actually going to tell you a little tale poetically, hopefully.

IH1 M-AE1-K CH-AH0 W-AH0 L-IY0 G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 T-EH1 L-Y-UW1 AH0 L-IH1 T-AH0-L T-EY1-L P-OW0 EH1 T-IH0 K-L-IY0 HH-OW1-P F-AH0 L-IY0


that's a near miss of a tragedy.

TH-AE1-T S-AH0 N-IH1-R M-IH1 S-AH1 V-AH0 T-R-AE1 JH-AH0 D-IY0


it came about years and years ago. and i wanted to write about the subject for a large number of years.

IH1-T K-EY1 M-AH0 B-AW1 T-Y-IH1-R Z-AH0-N D-Y-IH1-R Z-AH0 G-OW1 AH0-N D-AY1 W-AA1-N T-AH0-D T-UW1 R-AY1 T-AH0 B-AW1-T DH-AH0 S-AH1-B JH-IH0-K-T F-AO1 R-AH0 L-AA1-R JH-N-AH1-M B-ER0 AH1 V-Y-IH1-R-Z


and every time i tried to do it over the coming years-

AH0-N D-EH1 V-ER0 IY0 T-AY1 M-AY1 T-R-AY1-D T-UW1 D-UW1 IH1 T-OW1 V-ER0 DH-AH0 K-AH1 M-IH0 NG-Y-IH1-R-Z


... it always sounded a bit crap, if i'm honest.

IH1 T-AO1 L-W-EY2-Z S-AW1-N D-AH0 D-AH0 B-IH1-T K-R-AE1 P-IH1 F-IH1 M-AA1 N-AH0-S-T


until one day, my dad, who knew that i was struggling with how to approach this-

AH0-N T-IH1 L-W-AH1-N D-EY1 M-AY1 D-AE1-D HH-UW1 N-UW1 DH-AE1 T-AY1 W-AA1-Z-S T-R-AH1 G-AH0 L-IH0 NG-W-IH1-DH HH-AW1 T-UW1 AH0 P-R-OW1-CH DH-IH1-S


... said to me, because he's a much smarter man than me-

S-EH1-D T-UW1 M-IY1 B-IH0 K-AO1-Z HH-IY1 Z-AH0 M-AH1-CH S-M-AA1-R T-ER0 M-AE1-N DH-AE1-N M-IY1


"i've call this phrase going around in my head, and i don't know-"

AY1-V K-AO1-L DH-IH1-S F-R-EY1-Z G-OW1 IH0 NG-ER0 AW1-N D-IH0-N M-AY1 HH-EH1 D-AH0-N D-AY1 D-AA1-N T-N-OW1


"... maybe you could do something with it." and being the dutiful son that i am, i wrote it down in my little notebook.

M-EY1 B-IY0 Y-UW1 K-UH1-D D-UW1 S-AH1-M TH-IH0 NG-W-IH1 DH-IH1 T-AH0-N-D B-IY1 IH0-NG DH-AH0 D-UW1 T-IY0 F-AH0-L S-AH1-N DH-AE1 T-AY1 AE1 M-AY1 R-OW1 T-IH1-T D-AW1 N-IH0-N M-AY1 L-IH1 T-AH0-L N-OW1-T B-UH2-K


and the problem is that the phrase that he gave me relates to marine biology, specifically how pearls are formed naturally in oysters.

AH0-N-D DH-AH0 P-R-AA1 B-L-AH0 M-IH1-Z DH-AE1-T DH-AH0 F-R-EY1-Z DH-AE1-T HH-IY1 G-EY1 V-M-IY1 R-IH0 L-EY1-T-S T-UW1 M-ER0 IY1-N B-AY0 AA1 L-AH0 JH-IY0-S P-AH0 S-IH1 F-IH0 K-L-IY0 HH-AW1 P-ER1-L Z-AA1-R F-AO1-R-M D-N-AE1 CH-ER0 AH0 L-IY0 IH0 N-OY1-S T-ER0-Z


now, i don't know if everybody's familiar with how this works.

N-AW1 AY1 D-AA1-N T-N-OW1 IH1 F-EH1 V-R-IY0 B-AA2 D-IY0-Z F-AH0 M-IH1 L-Y-ER0 W-IH1-DH HH-AW1 DH-IH1 S-W-ER1-K-S


just in case we're not all kind of marine biology students.

JH-AH1-S T-IH0-N K-EY1 S-W-ER0 N-AA1 T-AO1-L K-AY1-N D-AH1 V-M-ER0 IY1-N B-AY0 AA1 L-AH0 JH-IY0-S T-UW1 D-AH0-N-T-S


i know i wasn't. the way that a pearl is formed naturally in an oyster is that an irritant of some form gets inside the shell and the oyster can't get rid of it.

AY1 N-OW1 AY1 W-AO1-S-T DH-AH0 W-EY1 DH-AE1 T-AH0 P-ER1 L-IH1-Z F-AO1-R-M D-N-AE1 CH-ER0 AH0 L-IY0 IH0 N-AE1 N-OY1-S T-ER0 IH1-Z DH-AE1 T-AE1 N-IH1 R-AH0 T-AH0-N T-AH1-V S-AH1-M F-AO1-R-M G-EH1-T S-IH0-N S-AY1-D DH-AH0 SH-EH1 L-AH0-N-D DH-AH0 OY1-S T-ER0 K-AE1-N-T G-EH1 T-R-IH1 D-AH1 V-IH1-T


it does mean, however, that people are wearing as decorative jewelry-

IH1-T D-AH1 Z-M-IY1-N HH-AW2 EH1 V-ER0 DH-AE1-T P-IY1 P-AH0 L-AA1 R-W-EH1 R-IH0 NG-AE1-Z D-EH1 K-R-AH0 T-IH0-V JH-UW1 AH0-L R-IY0


... what is, to all intents and purposes, oyster snot.

W-AH1 T-IH1-Z T-UW1 AO1 L-IH0-N T-EH1-N-T S-AH0-N-D P-ER1 P-AH0 S-AH0 Z-OY1-S T-ER0 S-N-AO1-T


now i've kind of done the little marine biology thing.

N-AW1 AY1-V K-AY1-N D-AH1-V D-AH1-N DH-AH0 L-IH1 T-AH0-L M-ER0 IY1-N B-AY0 AA1 L-AH0 JH-IY0 TH-IH1-NG


i can tell you the phrase that my dad gave me, and it became the title. it is-

AY1 K-AE1-N T-EH1 L-Y-UW1 DH-AH0 F-R-EY1-Z DH-AE1 T-M-AY1 D-AE1-D G-EY1 V-M-IY1 AH0-N D-IH1-T B-IH0 K-EY1-M DH-AH0 T-AY1 T-AH0 L-IH1 T-IH1-Z


it's the grit that makes the pearl.

IH1-T-S DH-AH0 G-R-IH1-T DH-AE1 T-M-EY1-K-S DH-AH0 P-ER1-L


now, i should tell you this before we start. this is a topic very close to my heart.

N-AW1 AY1 SH-UH1-D T-EH1 L-Y-UW1 DH-IH1-S B-IH0 F-AO1 R-W-IY1-S T-AA1-R-T DH-IH1 S-IH1 Z-AH0 T-AA1 P-IH0-K V-EH1 R-IY0 K-L-OW1-S T-UW1 M-AY1 HH-AA1-R-T


it is a tale of past events and, in turn, what they have meant to me in terms of who i am now.

IH1 T-IH1 Z-AH0 T-EY1 L-AH1-V P-AE1-S T-IH0 V-EH1-N-T S-AH0-N D-IH0-N T-ER1 N-W-AH1-T DH-EY1 HH-AE1 V-M-EH1-N-T T-UW1 M-IY1 IH0-N T-ER1-M Z-AH1-V HH-UW1 AY1 AE1-M N-AW1


the words i'm speaking will hopefully show how the title of the poem is ultimately true.

DH-AH0 W-ER1-D Z-IH1-M-S P-IY1 K-IH0 NG-W-IH1-L HH-OW1-P F-AH0 L-IY0 SH-OW1 HH-AW1 DH-AH0 T-AY1 T-AH0 L-AH1-V DH-AH0 P-OW1 AH0 M-IH1 Z-AH1-L T-AH0 M-AH0 T-L-IY0 T-R-UW1


so now i'm going to begin the story for you.

S-OW1 N-AW1 IH1-M G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 B-IH0 G-IH1-N DH-AH0-S T-AO1 R-IY0 F-AO1 R-Y-UW1


throughout my schooling i was always considered tall.

TH-R-UW0 AW1 T-M-AY1-S K-UW1 L-IH0 NG-AY1 W-AA1 Z-AO1 L-W-EY2-Z K-AH0-N S-IH1 D-ER0-D T-AO1-L


i did well in my lessons. oh, by no means all, and i would never suggest that.

AY1 D-IH1 D-W-EH1 L-IH0-N M-AY1 L-EH1 S-AH0-N Z-OW1 B-AY1 N-OW1 M-IY1-N Z-AO1 L-AH0-N D-AY1 W-UH1 D-N-EH1 V-ER0 S-AH0-G JH-EH1-S-T DH-AE1-T


but the combination of my height, that when starting primary school-

B-AH1-T DH-AH0 K-AA2-M B-AH0 N-EY1 SH-AH0 N-AH1 V-M-AY1 HH-AY1-T DH-AE1 T-W-EH1-N-S T-AA1-R T-IH0-NG P-R-AY1 M-EH2 R-IY0-S K-UW1-L


... i could already read and write, and that i never really ever put up much of a fight in my defense, meant that i became someone to tease.

AY1 K-UH1 D-AO0-L R-EH1 D-IY0 R-EH1 D-AH0-N D-R-AY1 T-AH0-N-D DH-AE1 T-AY1 N-EH1 V-ER0 R-IH1 L-IY0 EH1 V-ER0 P-UH1 T-AH1 P-M-AH1 CH-AH1 V-AH0 F-AY1 T-IH0-N M-AY1 D-IH0 F-EH1-N S-M-EH1-N-T DH-AE1 T-AY1 B-IH0 K-EY1-M S-AH1 M-W-AH2-N T-UW1 T-IY1-Z


the kids could get a reaction from me with apparent ease. and because-

DH-AH0 K-IH1-D-Z K-UH1-D G-EH1 T-AH0 R-IY0 AE1-K SH-AH0-N F-R-AH1-M M-IY1 W-IH1 DH-AH0 P-EH1 R-AH0-N T-IY1 Z-AH0-N-D B-IH0 K-AO1-Z


... i always want you to please, i kept it inside.

AY1 AO1 L-W-EY2 Z-W-AA1-N T-Y-UW1 T-UW1 P-L-IY1 Z-AY1 K-EH1-P T-IH1 T-IH0-N S-AY1-D


i kept it to myself. and though i didn't know it at the time-

AY1 K-EH1-P T-IH1-T T-UW1 M-AY2 S-EH1-L F-AH0-N-D DH-OW1 AY1 D-IH1 D-AH0-N T-N-OW1 IH1 T-AE1-T DH-AH0 T-AY1-M


... i let it affect my mental health. despite knowing, in my heart-

AY1 L-EH1 T-IH1 T-AH0 F-EH1-K T-M-AY1 M-EH1-N T-AH0-L HH-EH1-L-TH D-IH0-S P-AY1 T-N-OW1 IH0 NG-IH0-N M-AY1 HH-AA1-R-T


... that there were a wealth of options available for me to take.

DH-AE1-T DH-EH1 R-W-ER0 AH0 W-EH1-L TH-AH1 V-AA1-P SH-AH0-N Z-AH0 V-EY1 L-AH0 B-AH0-L F-AO1-R M-IY1 T-UW1 T-EY1-K


i made a mistake that many of us still continue to make.

AY1 M-EY1 D-AH0 M-IH0-S T-EY1-K DH-AE1 T-M-EH1 N-IY0 AH1 V-AH1-S-S T-IH1-L K-AH0-N T-IH1 N-Y-UW0 T-UW1 M-EY1-K


i didn't reach out when i should have done.

AY1 D-IH1 D-AH0-N T-R-IY1 CH-AW1 T-W-EH1 N-AY1 SH-UH1-D HH-AE1-V D-AH1-N


i let the kids carry on with their fun, thinking that when i changed school-

AY1 L-EH1-T DH-AH0 K-IH1-D-Z K-AE1 R-IY0 AA1 N-W-IH1-DH DH-EH1-R F-AH1-N TH-IH1-NG K-IH0-NG DH-AE1 T-W-EH1 N-AY1 CH-EY1-N-JH-D-S K-UW1-L


... taunts and punches that came my way on all breaks and lunches, and constant demoralizing, painful [inaudible 00:03:22].

T-AO1-N-T S-AH0-N-D P-AH1-N CH-IH0-Z DH-AE1-T K-EY1-M M-AY1 W-EY1 AA1 N-AO1-L B-R-EY1-K S-AH0-N D-L-AH1-N CH-IH0 Z-AH0-N-D K-AA1-N-S T-AH0-N-T D-IH0 M-AO1 R-AH0 L-AY2 Z-IH0-NG P-EY1-N F-AH0 L-IH0 N-AO1 D-AH0 B-AH0-L Z-IH1 R-OW0 AW1 ER0-Z TH-R-IY1 M-IH1 N-AH0-T S-AH0-N-D T-W-EH1-N T-IY0 T-UW1 S-EH1 K-AH0-N-D-Z


... to this brand new school with this very visual anti-bullying rule that finally everything would be cool.

T-UW1 DH-IH1-S B-R-AE1-N D-N-UW1-S K-UW1 L-W-IH1-DH DH-IH1-S V-EH1 R-IY0 V-IH1 ZH-AH0 W-AH0 L-AE1-N T-IY0 B-Y-UW2 L-IH0 NG-R-UW1-L DH-AE1-T F-AY1 N-AH0 L-IY0 EH1 V-R-IY0 TH-IH2 NG-W-UH1-D B-IY1 K-UW1-L


but i came to quickly realize that school policy was meant for parents' eyes, and was not in effect for someone of my size.

B-AH1 T-AY1 K-EY1-M T-UW1 K-W-IH1 K-L-IY0 R-IY1 L-AY2-Z DH-AE1-T-S K-UW1-L P-AA1 L-AH0 S-IY0 W-AA1 Z-M-EH1-N-T F-AO1-R P-EH1 R-AH0-N-T S-AY1 Z-AH0-N D-W-AA1 Z-N-AA1 T-IH0 N-IH0 F-EH1-K-T F-AO1-R S-AH1 M-W-AH2 N-AH1 V-M-AY1 S-AY1-Z


so when the bullying started i went to the teacher.

S-OW1 W-EH1-N DH-AH0 B-UH1 L-IY0 IH0-NG-S T-AA1-R T-AH0 D-AY1 W-EH1-N-T T-UW1 DH-AH0 T-IY1 CH-ER0


i begged and i pleaded. i tried to beseech her to make use of the school's-

AY1 B-EH1-G D-AH0-N D-AY1 P-L-IY1 D-AH0 D-AY1 T-R-AY1-D T-UW1 B-IY0 S-IY1-CH HH-ER0 T-UW1 M-EY1 K-Y-UW1 S-AH1-V DH-AH0-S K-UW1-L-Z


but what i was told, what the teacher chose to say, was that help was not going to come my way.

B-AH1 T-W-AH1 T-AY1 W-AA1-Z T-OW1-L D-W-AH1-T DH-AH0 T-IY1 CH-ER0 CH-OW1-Z T-UW1 S-EY1 W-AA1-Z DH-AE1-T HH-EH1-L P-W-AA1 Z-N-AA1-T G-OW1 IH0-NG T-UW1 K-AH1-M M-AY1 W-EY1


that i would have to suffer day after day, week after week, with no end in sight.

DH-AE1 T-AY1 W-UH1-D HH-AE1-V T-UW1 S-AH1 F-ER0 D-EY1 AE1-F T-ER0 D-EY1 W-IY1 K-AE1-F T-ER0 W-IY1 K-W-IH1 DH-N-OW1 EH1-N D-IH0-N S-AY1-T


that at the end of the tunnel, there was no light. so-

DH-AE1 T-AE1-T DH-AH0 EH1-N D-AH1-V DH-AH0 T-AH1 N-AH0-L DH-EH1 R-W-AA1 Z-N-OW1 L-AY1-T S-OW1


yeah. i kind of gave up the fight.

Y-AE1 AY1 K-AY1-N D-AH1-V G-EY1 V-AH1-P DH-AH0 F-AY1-T


now that's a terrible thing. 11 years old, feeling like you've been left out in the cold. any trust you had-

N-AW1 TH-AE1-T S-AH0 T-EH1 R-AH0 B-AH0-L TH-IH1 NG-IH0 L-EH1 V-AH0 N-Y-IH1-R Z-OW1-L-D F-IY1 L-IH0 NG-L-AY1 K-Y-UW1-V B-IH1 N-L-EH1-F T-AW1 T-IH0-N DH-AH0 K-OW1-L D-EH1 N-IY0 T-R-AH1-S T-Y-UW1 HH-AE1-D


... put on hold. not knowing on who you could rely, when what you were told was so obviously a lie.

P-UH1 T-AA1-N HH-OW1-L D-N-AA1 T-N-OW1 IH0 NG-AA1-N HH-UW1 Y-UW1 K-UH1 D-R-IH0 L-AY1 W-EH1 N-W-AH1 T-Y-UW1 W-ER0 T-OW1-L D-W-AA1-Z S-OW1 AA1-B V-IY0 AH0 S-L-IY0 AH0 L-AY1


it got to the stage-


now, i'm not proud that this is the case.

N-AW1 IH1-M N-AA1-T P-R-AW1-D DH-AE1-T DH-IH1 S-IH1-Z DH-AH0 K-EY1-S


but frankly, i need to give you at least a taste of what was going on at the time, that for a while-

B-AH1-T F-R-AE1-NG K-L-IY0 AY1 N-IY1-D T-UW1 G-IH1 V-Y-UW1 AE1 T-L-IY1-S T-AH0 T-EY1-S T-AH1 V-W-AH1 T-W-AA1-Z G-OW1 IH0 NG-AA1 N-AE1-T DH-AH0 T-AY1-M DH-AE1-T F-AO1 R-AH0 W-AY1-L


... i had lost my mind and had no idea as to how to find a way out of the hell that i found myself in.

AY1 HH-AE1 D-L-AO1-S T-M-AY1 M-AY1-N D-AH0-N-D HH-AE1 D-N-OW1 AY0 D-IY1 AH0 AE1-Z T-UW1 HH-AW1 T-UW1 F-AY1-N D-AH0 W-EY1 AW1 T-AH1-V DH-AH0 HH-EH1-L DH-AE1 T-AY1 F-AW1-N D-M-AY2 S-EH1-L F-IH0-N


i genuinely thought, that through suicide-

AY1 JH-EH1 N-Y-AH0 W-AH0 N-L-IY0 TH-AO1-T DH-AE1-T TH-R-UW1 S-UW1 AH0 S-AY2-D


... i could win back some points from those who had been my tormentors throughout each school year.

AY1 K-UH1 D-W-IH1-N B-AE1-K S-AH1-M P-OY1-N-T-S F-R-AH1-M DH-OW1-Z HH-UW1 HH-AE1-D B-IH1-N M-AY1 T-AO1-R M-EH2-N T-ER0-Z TH-R-UW0 AW1 T-IY1-CH-S K-UW1 L-Y-IH1-R


that maybe i could make them shed just one tear in payment for all of those shed in the depths of my fear.

DH-AE1 T-M-EY1 B-IY0 AY1 K-UH1 D-M-EY1-K DH-EH1-M SH-EH1-D JH-AH1-S T-W-AH1-N T-EH1 R-IH0-N P-EY1 M-AH0-N-T F-AO1 R-AO1 L-AH1-V DH-OW1-Z SH-EH1 D-IH0-N DH-AH0 D-EH1-P-TH S-AH1 V-M-AY1 F-IH1-R


i got a second chance and more time to think, where i came to understand i could be a strong link.

but i was lucky. the next school-

B-AH1 T-AY1 W-AA1 Z-L-AH1 K-IY0 DH-AH0 N-EH1-K-S-T-S K-UW1-L


... i went to had a teaching staff that actually knew about bullying, and what to do should it appear within the student population.

they noticed my hesitation and asked me for an explanation.

it was at that school that i was inspired by english teachers to explore the fires of my creativity, and even these poetic desires.

from them, the confidence i gained helped me numerous ways to [inaudible 00:05:39] to put my life within a frame of reference that i could abide.

F-R-AH1-M DH-EH1-M DH-AH0 K-AA1-N F-AH0 D-AH0-N S-AY1 G-EY1-N-D HH-EH1-L-P T-M-IY1 N-UW1 M-ER0 AH0 S-W-EY1-Z T-UW1 IH0 N-AO1 D-AH0 B-AH0-L Z-IH1 R-OW0 AW1 ER0-Z F-AY1 V-M-IH1 N-AH0-T S-AH0-N-D TH-ER1 D-IY0 N-AY1-N S-EH1 K-AH0-N-D-Z T-UW1 P-UH1 T-M-AY1 L-AY1 F-W-IH0 DH-IH1 N-AH0 F-R-EY1 M-AH1 V-R-EH1 F-ER0 AH0-N-S DH-AE1 T-AY1 K-UH1 D-AH0 B-AY1-D


though there will always be a little part of me that is terrified of the depression i felt.

i now try and use it as a rock upon which to stand, knowing that my life is safe-

my experiences have in fact helped me to see the positives in what could most likely be a very odd and interesting life.

M-AY1 IH0-K-S P-IH1 R-IY0 AH0-N S-IH0-Z HH-AE1 V-IH0-N F-AE1-K-T HH-EH1-L-P T-M-IY1 T-UW1 S-IY1 DH-AH0 P-AA1 Z-AH0 T-IH0-V Z-IH0 N-W-AH1-T K-UH1 D-M-OW1-S T-L-AY1 K-L-IY0 B-IY1 AH0 V-EH1 R-IY0 AA1 D-AH0-N D-IH1-N T-R-AH0-S T-IH0 NG-L-AY1-F

AE1 T-L-IY1-S T-N-AW1 DH-OW1 IH1-M P-R-IY0 P-EH1-R-D T-UW1 R-OW1-L DH-AH0 D-AY1-S

wow. that was really good. if you, yeah.

W-AW1 DH-AE1 T-W-AA1 Z-R-IH1 L-IY0 G-UH1 D-IH1 F-Y-UW1 Y-AE1


we can't just push it down, because it doesn't work. okay. so yeah, from that though-

W-IY1 K-AE1-N-T JH-AH1-S-T P-UH1 SH-IH1-T D-AW1-N B-IH0 K-AO1 Z-IH1-T D-OW1 S-AH0-N T-W-ER1 K-OW2 K-EY1 S-OW1 Y-AE1 F-R-AH1-M DH-AE1-T DH-OW1

so we're ready for that kind of change, and feel it, feel it, the change can come. it can-

oh yeah. but i mean, maybe i've been doing-

OW1 Y-AE1 B-AH1 T-AY1 M-IY1-N M-EY1 B-IY0 AY1-V B-IH1-N D-UW1 IH0-NG


... i've been getting these and collecting them, and i have a whole tumblr full of them.

if you wants to look. it's casting call woe, just put that in somewhere and you'll find it.

IH1 F-Y-UW1 W-AA1-N-T-S T-UW1 L-UH1 K-IH1-T-S K-AE1-S T-IH0-NG K-AO1 L-W-OW1 JH-AH1-S-T P-UH1-T DH-AE1 T-IH0-N S-AH1 M-W-EH2 R-AH0-N D-Y-UW1-L F-AY1-N D-IH1-T


but i've started to think that maybe it's me that's the problem.

B-AH1 T-AY1-V-S T-AA1-R T-AH0-D T-UW1 TH-IH1-NG-K DH-AE1 T-M-EY1 B-IY0 IH1-T S-M-IY1 TH-AE1-T-S DH-AH0 P-R-AA1 B-L-AH0-M


maybe this is why i'm resting. maybe i'm looking at these two negatively.

M-EY1 B-IY0 DH-IH1 S-IH1 Z-W-AY1 IH1 M-R-EH1-S T-IH0-NG M-EY1 B-IY0 IH1 M-L-UH1 K-IH0 NG-AE1-T DH-IY1-Z T-UW1 N-EH1 G-AH0 T-IH0 V-L-IY0

but that's the joy of casting calls, is that they can tell you where you're going wrong as well.

B-AH1-T TH-AE1-T-S DH-AH0 JH-OY1 AH1-V K-AE1-S T-IH0-NG K-AO1-L Z-IH1-Z DH-AE1-T DH-EY1 K-AE1-N T-EH1 L-Y-UW1 W-EH1 R-Y-UH1-R G-OW1 IH0 NG-R-AO1 NG-AE1 Z-W-EH1-L

there's something unnerving about her.

DH-EH1-R-Z S-AH1-M TH-IH0 NG-AH0 N-ER1 V-IH0 NG-AH0 B-AW1-T HH-ER0


maybe she's just read too many books.

we put people in boxes based solely on stereotypes, right? do you ever think, oh, if you're spanish, you must eat salsa?

TH-AE1-T S-AO1 L-W-EY2-Z B-IH1 N-AH0 P-R-AA1 B-L-AH0 M-IH0-N M-AY1 L-AY1-F

...do you really like black flag? you know? which is strange, because when you look at the political history of the world, not political history-

all music stems from the blues, right? and the blues is a black form of music-

right, yeah. what else was i going to say? oh, yeah. so, three things started happening as soon as i had me leg off. one, everyone told me that i could be a paralympian.

the third thing that happened.

DH-AH0 TH-ER1-D TH-IH1-NG DH-AE1-T HH-AE1 P-AH0-N-D


i don't know what that meant, but it-

AY1 D-AA1-N T-N-OW1 W-AH1-T DH-AE1 T-M-EH1-N-T B-AH1 T-IH1-T


it was sexy, right, yeah. for the sake of the podcast, i've just done something very sexy.
