May 23, 2005

As you can see from the time-stamp below, it’s after 4:00 on Monday morning.
Clearly, as this is the first free second I’ve had to fulfill my promise of updating, Patrick and I have been very, very busy being (I hope) good hosts and tour guides. Sometime this week I’ll have a more detailed account of [...]

I applied for a job yesterday that I really want. It’s at another local TV station and, for once, I’m really, really qualified to do it. Now I just have to convince them of that. I hope they call for an interview; I waited all day today with no luck. Pray, cross your fingers, do [...]

Well, both Sam and Twenty-Something Patrick have voiced displeasure at my lack of posting since we returned from Minneapolis, so I’m feeling guilty and decided I’d better recap before bed - and before I forget anything more that happened.

In an hour Patrick and I leave for Minneapolis/St. Paul to visit his sister and brother-in-law. And their new house, of course. Don’t forget that house part - it’s very important that we COME SEE THE NEW HOUSE. Trust me on this one.

Since his very first appearance on Oprah back in Februrary 2003, I’ve chronicled pretty much everything I can find about him. The treasure trove of info is here, though [...]

Haven’t had a lot to say lately. Busy thinking, I guess.
Feels like I’m at another mini-crossroads. The last one was when I left the TV station in January 2004. Now here I am facing two more weeks at a mediocre job I can tolerate, but don’t want to. I’m really sick of “tolerating” my life. [...]

Last week I received another set of 4 questions, and though I’d said questions were closed, I’m posting and answering them because I like ‘em and I feel like it.
Last time you threw your head back and belly laughed and why?
This is really kind of embarassing, but it was last night when Patrick and my [...]
