Sorry if you guys were waiting - I forgot to mention yesterday that my Friday morning entries will be later than usual because of a class I'm taking. Some of you get downright cranky when I'm late with a journal entry or I miss a day unannounced, so I'm giving you fair warning: Fridays will be spotty at best. So suck on that.
Speaking of neglect, I have been careless in not mentioning our show coming up on Wednesday (Jan. 25) at the Paradise Lounge with Will Dailey. I've always found the Paradise Lounge to be a really cool room - the sound is great and there's good food - great place to see a show. Plus, we're really looking forward to hooking up with Will, a Scamper buddy from way the F back. It'll be a fun way to spend an otherwise uneventful Wednesday night in January. So come on out.
In other news, I got a free episode of Runner Magazine in the mail yesterday. At the risk of plagarizing George Carlin too badly ("Article one: Putting One Foot In Front of the Other"), I was of course struck by the stupidity of having an entire magazine about something people have been doing since the dawn of time without any sort of magazine help whatsoever.
But more importantly - I'm officially on someone's "healthy life" mailing list. I assume it's from when I ran the 5K last October. What a change in lifestyle this has been. This time last year, I was on the mailing list for Guys Who Like to Stuff As Many Donut Holes In Their Mouth at the Same Time magazine. Don't laugh - they had a great interview with Norman Mailer in the July 2002 issue.
Note: for that last joke, I was going to research whether a) Norman Mailer is alive and b) whether he was alive in July 2002. But screw it - it's Friday. Have a good weekend, monkeys.

Yes, Norman Mailer is very much alive and I know this because he showed up on Gilmore Girls last season.
Thanks, Johanna - although you probably would have sounded a lot more erudite if you left out the Gilmore Girls part.
Not only is he living, he is also probably filled with doughnuts. Win-win.

I know. So?
My standards are high. I expect great things from you on this board, Johanna.
They're calling magzines "episodes" instead of "issues" now? Geez, I really HAVE been living under a rock, I guess. :P
