My first show aired today from 7-10 AM (and will continue to do so every Friday morning at 89.7 KRUI). Minus a few debacles-- such as 1) accidentally playing a curse word 2) having to cut Bowie's oh! you pretty things short because I forgot there was a curse word in it and 3) accidentally leaving my mic live for two songs--thus, airing a sort of frantic phone call to the operations manager because I couldn't hear any music in the studio monitor--things went really well. It's pretty fun to play around with DJ voices, too. The one that got the most use was low and sort of sultry...it's hard to muster anything else that early in the morning.
Also, since my 2009 game plan includes loose gestures towards Becoming An Adult (thus, the oil change), I'm attempting once again to get things published. The Iowa Review runs a website featuring daily previews of various artists and Jenna, its lovely editor, graciously accepted a short (very odd) piece I wrote a long while ago. You can find it here: The Daily Palette. In other news, it's supposed to be 9 degrees tomorrow. Sledding might be a no-go.
