I was on the radio today! Ok, not yet, I was recorded for the radio today, and it'll be broadcast the day after Christmas. It's for a a public radio news show, and I was talking about pop culture. Was way too nervous, but the hosts were very cool and the offices were swank. I mean, WNYC is NPR's flagship station, it's been around a long time, and I'm tickled that public radio, any radio is doing well, but...wow. Maybe I picked the wrong medium.
I am so very, very excited for Christmas and so wholly unprepared for it. It's about this time of December that I stop skipping past the Christmas radio stations in disgust and start merely cycling through them to find which one is playing the Mariah Carey song. I wonder if on those fancy satellite radios with millions of channels there's just has one that plays that song over and over again. Why wouldn't they do that?
Finally, I almost cried in a meeting today. It was so weird-two minutes in to a private (but not at all scary) meeting, and my eyes started to water like crazy. It was like a sudden attack of allergies or something. It could have been stress, but I really doubt it. I'm really more worried that I've developed a sudden new winter set of allergies. My dad always said you either grow out of or into allergies, and I didn't have them as a kid. DAMN it.
