Springtime! (it's almost here...)

HEY GUYS!

Rach: how's the arm? s'bucks? the new car?

Patrice: update on borders? (heard about it on the news last week) so excited for the JET intv...i'll be sending positive thoughts your way on Wed.

Kelly: How's school? you got a puppy?!?!

Amanda: How's it over there in your neck of the woods?

All the other followers: what's up?

So it's almost springtime! SO CLOSE! tired of cold, dreary weather. yayyyyyy

I think this is update #2 for me. I officially have Sunday's off now! For the month of January I only had one day off because Whole Foods was messing up my sched, but now thats all fixed. So Sunday is the best day to get a hold of me!

WNYC is good. I worked on my first "idea" segment (on how artists build setlists for shows). It's a segment that I pitched and saw through from the beginning to end. Very fun stuff...a little stressful though doing interviews and finding guests. You can listen to it here:

WNYC: Soundcheck. The Art of the Setlist

I'm trying to do a few more idea segs before my internship ends. I've pitched a few already that didn't really ring for the producers, but I just came up with two today: Breakup albums (records or songs that people made after/during a break up) and *ahem* Drinking songs/bands (a seasonal seg for St. Patty's I think). Not sure what the outcome of this internship will be...perhaps I'll get an offer, but I don't want to get my hopes up. I'm kind of in this weird spot right now in which i'm not sure if I should go back to school...are my radio chops at their best? I think I'm going to speak with the senior producer of the show to get his advice.

Other updates: 


I joined the New York Road Runners and ran in my first race a few weeks ago in Central Park. I did pretty well considering I slipped on a patch of ice right before the race and banged up my left knee. It's all better now (no where near Rach's encounter with ice) and I think I'll be running in another race next month, a 15k.


Ryan and I are thinking about moving in together in the summer. I think we want to stay in Jersey City, but move closer to "downtown" where it's more "hip" and not as ghetto. It's cheap here and not as pretentious as Brooklyn. My place is not bad. I have heat now and the downstairs bathroom is all set up, but I'm kind of over living with my landlord and following her weird rules. I shouldn't complain though because it's so cheap and it is her home. so yeah.


I cut this guy's hair:

(also this is ryan)

this is what's happening right now: listening to arcade fire and drinking banana beer
