Fun stuff

Here's an IMPORTANT news item I had to share.

I'm excited by heading out to The 20th Century Cincinnati Show again this year with M and eating here after so I can gaze at my beloved city.

I'm devotedly watching Idol which is P-A-I-N-F-U-L without DVR to get through commercials, lame Paula comments and BAD SINGERS, of which there are plenty. I've not missed cable until now.

I'm reading Macolm Gladwell's (author of The Tipping Point and Blink) new book, Outliers, which explains that success is as much, if not more, the product of environment than genetics. As always, dry material made fascinating.

I secured a part-time position at the new West Chester Medical Center as a health unit coordinator in the Emergency Dept. Two twelve-hour shifts and full benefits. A freelancer's dream come true.

Finally my dear sweet friend and co-contractor, Michelle, wrote me a lovely poem since we are parting ways and I'm turning 46 (ugh). I think she is too shy to want it pasted for everyone to see, but suffice to say, we've been through our private struggles since we met in October and were each other's safety zone during the day. I love her.
