What's It Like to Be Siri?

All of the digital recordings started happening seriously, I guess, at the beginning of the millennium, and I did the basic vocabulary that turned into Siri in the year 2005. I recorded for the whole month of July -- four hours a day, five days a week. At the time I was working for a company that did a lot of on-hold messaging, which I've always done and continue to do. This was sort of a new thing. They were recording phrases and sentences that were sort of odd because they were solely created to get every sound combination in the language.
