There is Dust Everywhere

I'm halfway through the painting stage of the stripping/sanding/priming/painting/polyurethene-ing process on the dresser we're going to use for Sam. Right now, much of the office/soon to be baby's room is covered in dust, so this computer might explode. If it does, know I always loved all of you.

We're painting the dresser spa blue and ordering some clear knobs off the Web. We will also be hanging a painting my dad did of a tricycle (which has colors that are similar to the paint we're using) some 40 years ago and will be buying some wooden letters to spell Sam's name on the wall. We'll probably paint those, too.

In case you're keeping score, Sam's official name (as of today) is Samuel ___________ Colrus. We're taking suggestions for a middle name, as we're not quite sure we want to settle on the current front runner, William.

Our paper will have a new podcast this week. Josh Daniels (host of our only other podcast) will again take the reigns, rockin' C-Town with his biweekly, 60-minute music show, "The PulseCast: Music Edition." If all goes as planned, this podcast (as well as all future Pulse podcasts) will be available via all your favorite podcatchers, via Web streaming, and via plain ol' mp3 download.

I've heard it. You're gonna dig it.

Speaking of Podcasts. Tara Servatius, a writer for Charlotte's Creative Loafing, also hosts a GREAT talk show on WBT 1110 AM on Sundays, which is also available in podcast form. I first heard Tara when I was visiting my sister and have downloaded every one of her shows since. She's become a sort of personal journalistic hero of mine.

In other semi-related Web news: Our Web hits have been steadily increasing for quite some time, with last week's numbers being our best yet. People must really like to read about food.

I'm headin' back to the editing bay tomorrow. We're getting REALLY CLOSE to finishing the OTOH DVD. I spoke with Dan Lyons today, and he will be available for the commentary recording session. Microphones permitting, we won't be the only two cast members there.

Lack of writing. You've undoubtedly noticed that my editorial writing has basically, well, stopped over the last year or so. This is not good, nor particularly desired, on my part, and steps are being taken to revive this facet of my work. I'm looking forward to being openly despised once again. Maybe as soon as next week...
