No Title

0Josh • 9th May 2005 • blog entries, nome., station life

Hello my internet friends,

Its been a pretty interesting week, Lydia was gone in Anchorage for training and I held the fort down here in Nome…where by the way, there is pretty much no more snow, and where tomorrow the sun will set after midnight. I think I’ll start documenting the daylight in the blog, since I pretty much always mention it anyways, so I’m introducing (drumroll please)…

Josh’s Daylight-o-Meter OR How much light will it take to drive the Rogers insane??

Today, May 9, 2005: Sunrise at 5:57am and a Sunset at 11:59pm for 18 hours of daylight.

This week Matt & Nicole will be coming up, that should be fun! I’ve got a guitar recital the day before they arrive, that was a close call. I haven’t actually experienced a recital for myself, although I did attend lots of Janell’s piano recitals when we were growing up. I’m pretty sure it will be one of the most embarrassing events of my lifetime, as a married man to fingerpick “Oh Suzanna” as a duet with a 15 year old in front of a bunch of strangers… but I’m actually learning stuff about playing, so I guess it will be worth it.

I’ve been sick for a few days and hoping to kick this pretty soon. It’s no fun to be on the radio when your throat makes you sound like a 65 year old smoker, or a 14 year old who is still going through “special changes”…. that was last week, the cold is running its course and now I’m Gilbert Gottfried nasally.

I think I’ll host a big northslope blog party in a few weeks as we mark the 1 year anniversary of its inception. I’ll keep everyone updated.
