INSANE. First of all, the work, it is like seven softball pitching machines lined up &#038; have a never-ending supply of balls &#038; are pelting me as I race back and forth.<\/p>\n<p>Second, Kristin tried to bring our waiter home from lunch today. Yes, he was very cute. But the rest of just ADMIRED him. Kristin? Asked him if he&#8217;d like to come home with us. It&#8217;s why I love her.<\/p>\n<p>Third, it&#8217;s as if we&#8217;re all doing stand-up today. My boss Jim, Kristin, me, the new girl &#8211; she knows a lot about stripclubs &#8211; it&#8217;s just hilarious and exhausting and then hilarious all over again.  We had lunch with one of the funniest people I know, my rep Joe, and I adore him. He does the best gay Cuban voice ever. <\/p>\n<p>I won $50 this morning, because Max (of Max, Tanna &#038; Moffett, the morning show on KYYS), called me at work yesterday &#038; said they&#8217;d be saying my name on the radio &#038; I should listen, and then call in. Well, duh, you don&#8217;t have to tell me twice. I&#8217;ve got a price. He even told me the time they&#8217;d be doing it. SWEET! Unfortunately, as I am wont to do, I was rather unaware of him and his fame and Kansas City Icon Status. So I just shot him shit the entire time on the phone: &#8220;Hi Jennifer, how are you?&#8221; &#8220;STRANGE, MAX. I am feeling STRANGE today!&#8221; because I get tired of the same ordinary conversations, so I was mixin&#8217; it up. He was not quite sure what to make of me, and probably a little weary of being whored out to call media directors &#038; buyers in the city to buy their love &#038; listenership, if only for an hour. Whatever. Fifty Dolla make me holla. And, I made him laugh.<\/p>\n<p>So the insanity continues: I have to work this weekend; one of my good friend&#8217;s mother passed away last night &#8211; I&#8217;m so sad for her, I had to get it together at my desk, because she&#8217;s also an only child &#038; I suddenly saw her kindergarten-age daughter &#038; my heart ached for her; I&#8217;m having fun at my job; we&#8217;re getting things done, we&#8217;re torturing people (legally) &#8212; it&#8217;s like getting the good, the bad, the highs, the lows, the extreme hilarity, the extreme sadness &#8211; all in an encapsulated, concentrated timeframe. But I tell you what. When life gives you a lemon? BITE IT. Just bite it. Throw in a sugar cube. Add 151 rum &#038; a shot of vodka &#038; you hit all the softballs out of the park. <\/p>\n<p>Right now, I feel extremely alive. And as though I could begin to start speaking in tongues &#8211; any minute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am having the craziest, up-down, nutty day. INSANE.
