Moon & I will not be on the air Thursday and Friday this week. (Ryan is filling in while we are away.) We are traveling to Austin, Texas for the National Association of Broadcasters Awards Dinner. Believe it or not, our little show was nominated for a Marconi for Best Large Market Personality of the Year! So, we hope to come back with one of these:
Mmmmmmm...pointy!
The station itself is up for Legendary Station of the Year too! We are really excited.
I got my hair done this morning so now I just have to figure out what I am going to wear!
I'll update my blog as soon as I can upon my return Friday afternoon!

The day after I returned from Aruba, I took a triop with my fellow KS95 Staffers up to Madden's for the weekend. It was rainy and chilly but we wouldn't let that stop us from having fun anyway. Melissa did a fine job driving the boat. Dez was first mate.
Poor Ryan was outnumbered as the only guy on the boat with a bunch of us girls but we needed someone to do the heavy lifting so...what are you gonna do? HA!

More pics from Aruba...
The shopping center across from our hotel...
Me with KS95 Listener Amy (left) and her friend, Stacy. Amy hooked me up with this awesome restaurant, Passions, where you dine on the beach and watch the sunset. It's very romantic and the food and service were amazing. Amy is on her 18th trip to Aruba now and she is a ROCKSTAR at this place. I'm dropping her name again, man!
Sunset at Arashi Beach
Can you spot the sting ray trying to hide in the sand from me???
Eww!! Sea snake! It was actually very pretty and colorful but I was not getting any closer to take this photo!
Going on vacation and trying to maintain a healthy diet was a tall order. I managed to do quite well in Aruba but it was the airport that got me! We flew at wee hours so options were limited and I caved and ate a few not-so-great-for-me things. I'm not going to beat myself up about it though because I did a LOT of walking and swimming while we were there. Over the weekend we had a station retreat where I kind a blew it too. But, it's all behind me now and I am back on the wagon again.
Saw my trainer this morning. Frau Spottke put me through the ringer! It was nice to see her again though. She is my inspiration to keep up. I don't feel like myself and I have less energy and I am stiff when I get out of bed in the morning. I HATE that! If I get home before dark I hope to try out a run tonight. I'm nervous about my hamstring but I can't sit on the sidelines forever. If its too dark I'll be on the elliptical watching TV. The Biggest Loser starts tonight and I'm inspired by people brave enough to lose a lot of weight in front of millions on TV. If they can do it, I can manage a measly 10 pounds. Right?
