May This Week Be...less dragging

Busy, busy, busy week it's been...yet at the same time it's felt as if it's been dragging. In between production, being on the air, and running errands for Young Professionals and the MWV Chamber Annual Meeting and Dinner, I really didn't feel like I was taking a breather until today, or at least until this evening. Each day felt as if they were 40 hours long, but every hour was taken up with stuff. I also had my birthday this week, and even though I didn't really go out and "do something" that evening, I had a really great day--cake with the co-workers/friends, great care package from the fam, and birthday hugs/messages from all of those who have become near and dear to me.

One of the downfalls this week, as surprising as it might be, was Halloween. The one night where you dress up, hang out with friends, and just have some fun (possibly grab loads of candy) turned out to rank right up there with the Halloween where I was sick. I don't know if it was the fact that I decided to take the extra job of running the sound board for the High School football game, or if it was I received a phone call from my Choral Society director that just didn't fly with me, or that I was starting the night off really late. Overall, I ended up getting out of the station at almost 10pm, was dressed up as a 60's Hippie, and ready to start the night, just to drive over to a friends party that had already been winding down, then driving back and realizing that everyone I knew was already leaving to go home or at some other party too far away. This Halloween was just not my cup of tea---memo to self: DO NOT take overtime at work on Halloween, it messes up the whole flow of the night!

I do have to say that the night before (Thursday) was a great evening, and I supposedly made a splash with the MWV Chamber members. I don't know what good it really will do me in the end because many of the Chamber members are in their 40's+ and are usually weary of "outsiders" or "transplants," but at least I helped make them crack up in the mock debate I was co-moderator for. I heard Lorne Michales (from SNL) may be looking for some more women to join the cast--I wonder if I should try out some way :) Oh to work as a cast member on SNL would probably be the coolest thing ever! It's right at the top of the list, alongside being a Radio Announcer that get's syndicated across the country (like Ryan Seacrest or Casey Casem, not so much as Delilah--too soft for my personality).

Well, I should probably hit the hay, so I say adios to all my readers and buenas noches!
