As I settle in to this chair, this life...

...I realize that I haven't updated the blog in a while. Chris said that he thought I might have died in tennessee since neither me nor my brother had updated since before we left. So, here I spring back up & out of the lands of the dead with this post.

The only explanation that I have is that the job has gotten extremely draining. But not in the way that a construction job or middle management is draining, physically and mentally, but in the way that my will to live is slightly drained every time I hit the record button (for the 10,000th time) or hear Steve Urkel laugh. You would think that the blog would keep me alert and it kind of does but I've taken to wallowing in the boredom. Reading news religiously. It's done wonders for my outlook, believe me.

So, in other news: John's b'day next week. I'll probably be in Raleigh. Lincoln & Flippy's the following week so I'll be in High Point. Two-three weeks later is Josh's so I'll be broke by September (or what I refer to as Wreck-tember.)

The radio show is doing well (90.9 Sundays from 8-10pm, payola is accepted in limited amounts), but we've gotten kind of comfortable so we made a couple of amateurish mistakes last week. Two of which involved leaving the mic on for 10-20 secs and one where I got distracted and forgot to cue up the next cd & ended up playing the same Beastie Boys track twice. Well, only a few seconds of the same track the second time. It wasn't too bad. Josh just doesn't play along with me when I try to lighten the mood up. I'll ask him a question expecting a little effort and he'll respond with " I don't know" or just several seconds of silence. It's hard to do a two man show when one of the men is a mute.

Anyway, I think I've pretty much gotten over the whole near-death experience of a few weeks ago, so maybe I'll start posting again. Now, I just need something to say.
