OKAY...life has been going fast.  The summer is almost over already?  Well, it has been hard to eat right while broadcasting live at the State Fair.  Steph and I have been trying all the new foods, etc.  Make sure you look at my pics and videos from the fair.

Tomorrow we have Gaborama.  Ian is my partner for this.  I am SOOO EXCITED and nervous.  He is so smart, I hope I can keep up.  BTW--the guy Ian set me up with?  Well, I have been getting lots of questions at the fair.  Everything is moving right along nicely.  I have posted a few more pics of him, too.

See you soon....

Both Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes will be missed.  2 young famous people died over the weekend.  We are a little worried, on our show, we talked about how famous deaths come in 3's.

Here is a pic of Shaft and I just a few weeks before his death.  He was VERY nice.

So, if you haven't been listening, Ian from Ian and Margery called our show and set me up on a blind date.  Honestly, I knew I had to put myself out there.  However, you know what it is like being set up.  VERY awkward, and scary, and makes you worry about rejection.  ANYWAY...Ian, good job :)  You might have heard Matt on the morning show defending his Hickey Ninja stripes (be careful Margery).  Or, you might have heard me briefly mention our first misunderstanding (I was right, of course ;).  Either way...let's see if this will continue to be anything.  Now, Steph is like my big sister, very cautious and is watching his every move. 

I have gotten a lot of emails to post pics, etc.  So, here you go...meet Matt.  Isn't it a little scary that he has the same name as my first ever boyfriend?  And, we all know how that turned out.  Now, this whole Matt thing is not official until we double date with Ian and Margery.  I am sure you will get the update....so far, no double date plans have been set.  It is that begining, walking on egg shells, let's see what will happen phase.  And, to tell you the truth, I haven't reached this point with someone in a long time.

And, here are a few photos from Date #2.  (This was good times.)

Well, wish me luck.  I will need it.  And, if it doesn't work out...I will have to delete this post :)

It's been awhile since I have posted.  Always busy...I suppose.  Let's see, quick update.  I had the most awesome time in Chicago seeing my family.  Sometimes you feel like you are still 12 and that is a great thing.  And, family is soooo important(and yes...I include friends as my family).  Anyway, I just wish we all still lived near each other.  But, then again...that might drive us all a little bit nutty.  Everyone has kids and I even got to watch the fireworks just like we used to.  And, why is it that when you want to run into people you used to know...you never do.

I have been feeling really great, been in a good space.  And, I still am despite a few small incidents.  But, I won't let that get me down.  I got into a little car accident about a week ago.  It is funny the decisions you make when you are in shock.  Thanks Toni for making me file with my insurance :)  Because I almost ended up in some salvage yard trying to do my own little deal.  Shock is an interesting thing.  My computer had a weird crash.  I bought my computer with a backup drive...so anything I save on my hard drive is automatically mirrored onto my very expensive backup.  Well, I was the 1 in a million lucky one to have both drives crash.  Good times :)  I am still working on recovering old files.  However, I have fixed my computer so it at least works.

And, then I got the call today.  The call I knew I would most likely get at some point.  The call you talk yourself out of...saying it would never happen.  One of my good friends from college and radio passed away this past weekend.  I knew he was having an extremely hard few years.  It just makes me so sad because he was so great.  I said "was"....that is even more sad.  Everyone moves on and has their own lives to live.  And, you try to be there for your friends.  And, sometimes, they have such a hard time, it is really out of your control.  Either way, my friend Tim really helped me through the worst of times, as I tried to help him.  He is still on my myspace in the same friend #3 place where he was before.  But, now it is a strange thing to see it.

And, I suppose as we get older, we will continue to get calls like that.  However, I am going to remain positive and know that most calls we receive are for celebrations and luv and only great things.  Okay, there is nothing else I want to talk about because I am still going thru it all in my head.

BUT, at least I had the most awesome time at the Neil Diamond concert.  Funny!  Who would have ever thought I would end up there?  But, I did :)

And, I am going to my fun convention a week from tonight.  So, that will be fun seeing old friends, etc.

Okay, I will talk to y'all soon....hope things are good on your end.

WHAT DISORDER ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM?

Are you bipolar?  Depressed?  OCD?  ADD (which stands for Attention Deficit......hey, look at those cool shoes!)  We found a website that lets you take psychological tests and quizzes that may help you realize you have a problem.

We will take them and let you know!
