Time for an update!

Woooo!  *exhales*

Alright well half of the spring semester is over!  Let’s say I’m over the hump as far as school goes.  Spring Break is officially here.  It’s been a rather intense week and I’m glad that it’s coming to an end.  Let’s rewind to last Friday.

Friday was the 2nd annual FM102 crawfish boil out at Cormiers.  I ate my way through more than 5lbs of crawfish.  My coworkers are still telling tails of how many crusty crustaceans I put away.  I started eating at 4:30 and didn’t stop until 7.  Sure a lot of time was spent socializing but I packed away quite a few crawfish.  Shortly after leaving the shindig, Johnny (from the Ruston days) calls me up.  He invites me to join the Ruston crew at Logan’s steakhouse for dinner and a movie.  I met up with Dave, James, and Belinda.  It’s been several months since I last saw the Ruston crew.  For some reason they never include me in anything they do anymore.  I played with the free food since I had just eaten my fill of crawfish (see the moblog for more detail).  We went to see Hellboy afterwards.  I didn’t care for it too much but it did beat Jersey Girl =P A little observation I made:  in the old days, the Ruston crew would stay till the bitter end of a movie.  Once the credits rolled, out went the crew members with girlfriends attached to them.  It’s funny how girls change people. 

Saturday I hung out with Amanda.  Saturdays at Amanda’s are becoming a weekly event.  We went to Quiznos (yes I talked her into eating at Q-nos) and then the mall.  I learned that Amanda is a hyper mall shopper.  Once she enters the mall doors she is on warp speed.  She ziggs and zaggs in and out of isles faster than the speed of light.  I could barely keep up.  I’m not complaining because I’d much rather shop with a girl that knows what she wants and cuts to the chase than a girl that spends all day looking for the “perfect outfit.” After the mall we went back to her house and watched the pilot episode of the hit TV show Alias.  I must say that after watching the pilot, I’m hooked.  Amanda’s got the box set of Season 1.  I’m currently borrowing the first 2 DVDs of that set.  I had to put up my FLCL DVDs as collateral though. 

Monday through Wednesday:  lots of work, a test and I came down with a cold.  Not to worry, I’m getting better.  Wednesday afternoon I went back out to Black Bayou with Amanda.  I brought my camera and took some pictures We were actually having a photo shoot off.  I’ll know who the winner is tomorrow when I see both pictures side by side. 

I may have made mention of this in a previous post but I’m going home next week.  I’ll be mostly unavailable until next Friday.  I plan to redesign EVERYTHING about my internet existence.  Rome wasn’t built in a day but hopefully I can redefine BrendanSpaar.com in a week.  Gabe will be producing Midday News Talk Sports in my absence.  He’s filled in before and I’m sure he’ll do fine.  I’ve been combining two weeks worth of work into this week to make up for my absence next week.  Early this week I was given another big project.  This is probably the single largest project since AM 540 went on the air.  I can’t go into details here but if you’re really curious, I’m told the announcement will be made next Wednesday on First News Talk Sports (8am) and Midday News Talk Sports (1pm).

Let’s see...what else....oh yea.  I’ll be on FM 102 Saturday from noon - 6pm.  I’m working up a new show open so be sure to tune in for that.  102 brought back jingles this week and we’re doing show openers now.  I am tossing a few ideas around so who knows what will make the airwaves Saturday. 

That’s all for me....Brendan out (ha!  just seeing if you’re paying attention!  =P )
