<br />
It's pretty cool because the windows are reflective so I can see out but people walking by on the street can't see in. It's amazing how often it doesn't occur to people that there's possibly someone on the other side of the glass when they walk up to dig for boogers, adjust themselves, check their teeth, etc.<br />
<br />
It's a nice view though. Arguably one of the better ones from radio studios I've worked at during my career. Quite often studios are buried in the middle of a building and can be kind of depressing.<br />

<br />
I say surprise guest because Brandon didn't know I was coming. He didn't know anyone was coming. I had to keep it quiet for six months.<br />
<br />
I flew from Tucson to Sacramento on Southwest, rented a car, and drove to Stockton. I stayed for the first two nights at the Courtyard by Marriott and the last night at Brandon's.<br />
<br />
Props to Lily for planning out the party and inviting me to come.<br />
<br />
I did have a good time and shot some photos.<br />

It's starting to become a tradition.<br />
<br />
The guests included the two of us, Anthony's aunt JoAnn, his brother Michael and his girlfriend Serena. We ate Italian food, opened gifts, and play games including Cards Against Humanity (a gift that we gave Michael) and the Golden Girls edition of "Clue". We had a ton of fun.<br />

<br />
Blood drives are challenging. Many people are scared of needles, organizations like the Red Cross have a number of restrictions to determine if you're eligible, and it's one of those things that you don't know you need until you've had an accident or require surgery. I wish more people would donate.<br />

I wasn't the only one who had this idea. I searched Amazon and came up with multiple configurations for sale including a little plush sash poop and the one I chose, the inflatable poop.<br />
<br />
I had problems with it from the start. When I opened the package, the power pack that powers the fan motor to keep it inflated had imploded inside and wouldn't work even after I took it apart to try and fix it. So, I went to Party City (fail) and Spirit Halloween (success) to try and find a replacement power pack. I ended up having to buy a whole costume (another $40, which made the cost over $80 total for this Halloween get up) and discovered after going to the Halloween party that Anthony and I attended that it had a tear in the side and wouldn't stay inflated unless I held it together with my fingers.<br />
<br />
I did get some laughs. So that made this crap not a total loss.<br />

They've borrowed it to do some testing with the green screen in the studio.<br />
<br />
I went into production control to see what they were doing with it and it was being put onto a video of the traffic camera on I-10. It looks like a giant Ken Carr is standing on the freeway.<br />

The explosion of weeds in the last week in my backyard has been testament to the extraordinary amount of water than has fallen from the sky.<br />
<br />
Over the weekend, we had a slow moving storm that went over the house and it turned the backyard into a lake (temporarily). The grass (if you could call it that) was cut super short on Saturday afternoon and as of this writing (Wednesday night) has already grown two inches. I'll be back out there again this weekend to chop it down again and spray the back area of rocks to make an attempt at killing the weeds that have quickly grown.<br />
<br />
The rain made for some semi-dramatic photos:<br />

I'm grateful that I've lived another year without anything particularly terrible happening. Nothing particularly exciting happened either.... which is probably good because it lessens the chance of having a heart attack from too much excitement.<br />
<br />
Anthony is always wonderful and once again this year he out did himself. He ordered a cake that looked like a burger and fries complete with a few ants crawling on it like it was at a picnic. It's made with about 75% frosting so I may end up with a raging case of diabetes by the time we're done eating it but I've lived 51 years so.... what the hell.<br />
<br />
Birthday activities included sleeping in, finishing laundry, eating some of the epic birthday cake that Anthony provided, my weekly trip to the grocery store, and fine dining from Taco Bell including a chicken chalupa and a bean burrito.<br />
<br />
Happy Birthday to me.<br />

The news department at the TV station decided it would be interesting to have someone come and create an ice sculpture, point a camera at it, and see how long it would take to melt in the 115 degree heat.<br />
<br />
The set up you see below was initiated at 5:00 a.m. I shot the first photo at about 9:00 a.m. and the second at 1:00 p.m. It was all gone, cleaned up, and the water evaporated by the time I went home at 5:30 p.m.<br />
<br />
It really is a dry heat though.<br />

<br />
Not everyone can go due to schedules, etc. But, this was about half of the total staff that enjoyed some food and learned some stuff. I was asked to help coordinate the set up in this room and we got it ready in about fifteen minutes. I say we, because I had plenty of help. My co-workers are great about pitching in.<br />

Since someone needs to stay home and take care of our dog Lucky, I missed out on this trip but provided transportation to the airport to drop them off and picked them up when they returned. I'm a giver.<br />
<br />
I know a number of people who travel often and a visit to the airport is no big thing for them. I rarely travel let alone have a reason to visit the airport. When I go, it becomes an event even if it is to pick someone up who flew somewhere. It is enough of an event that I bring my camera to shoot photos.<br />

That's not part of my job anymore, so this year I went and shot some photos.<br />
<br />
The original events were at Desert Diamond Casino, then it moved to Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, and now it's at the Westin La Paloma Resort. The daytime event features a "Culinary Experience" with food sampling from various Tucson restaurants, beer and spirit tastings and classes, and the evening event includes the Iron Chef Tucson competition.<br />
<br />
I didn't attend the competition portion, but it featured Travis Peters of The Parish restaurant vs. Michael Elefante of Mama Louisa's. The secret ingredient this year was peaches. Travis emerged victorious in the competition.<br />
<br />
Here's some of the photos I shot including the Morning Blend's Tina Jennings:<br />

<br />
Tune up, new platinum plugs, oil change, fluid change in the fancy transmission the car has, brake adjustment, tire rotation, air and cabin filter replacement, and plenty more stuff on the list that I won't bore you with.<br />
<br />
While I waited, I sat in the waiting area for the service department and watched TV, read magazines, and scanned through Twitter on my iPhone. I was also entertained by several kids coming into the waiting area and making themselves coffee.<br />
<br />
I guess in today's Starbucks culture it's not too early to start an addiction to five dollar cups o' joe.<br />

Scripps, the corporation that employs me, sent me on a required trip to the Leadership Challenge located at Camp Joy, which is approximately a 45 minute drive outside of Cincinnati, Ohio. Every manager in the company is eventually required to go. I didn't have to pay for it and it's amazing how much more willing I am to go somewhere if it's not on my dime.<br />
<br />
The company goes to great expense to create leaders. It's a pretty extraordinary thing. I learned a lot from the experience and was so exhausted most of the time that it was a struggle to stay awake but it was worth it.<br />
<br />
My flight from Tucson to Chicago to connect to a flight to Cincinnati was delayed by an hour which caused me to miss the connecting flight. That was the start of the lack of sleep at the beginning of my journey that carried over for days since I was sleeping in a bunk bed located in a cabin at the camp. The flight back that connected through Denver was uneventful and I actually slept on the plane.<br />
<br />
I stayed at the Cincinnatian Hotel the first night but arrived so late (after midnight) and got back up at 4:30 a.m. I didn't even have a chance to enjoy the fancy hotel room except for a few hours.<br />
<br />
The Leadership Challenge involved extensive classroom time and physical activities. The weather was cool and damp (especially compared to Tucson's warm dry weather) and I was concerned before I went that I'd freeze so I went to Dick's Sporting Goods before I left and purchased about $300 worth of outdoor gear to wear. I will say that I probably went a little overboard but the waterproof hiking boots that were part of my purchase turned out to be an outstanding choice.<br />
<br />
Overall, it was a worthwhile trip and I learned a lot. I'm glad I went.<br />

<br />
I was asked to do some announcements on stage at Family Fiesta recently, an event put on by local non-profit organization Casa De Los Ninos at Tucson's Reid Park.<br />
<br />
I didn't feel very well that day. I think I was having some kind of allergy attack. But, I showed up anyway and filled in for a co-worker whose father had passed away and she had to go to the funeral in Wisconsin.<br />
<br />
I was there for a few hours and made it through. Seems like I've done this kind of thing before.<br />

<br />
This event is ridiculous in size (as in huge). Estimated crowds of 130,000 over the two days the festival takes place and over 450 authors in attendance.<br />
<br />
It was an unusually warm day for March, around 90 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. It wore me out a bit being in the heat for several hours. I wasn't used to the warm weather (usually we have a little time to get acclimated to it again, spring is usually very short around these parts) but it wasn't too miserable.<br />
<br />
We also had a visit from Sarah Whitcomb Foss and Jimmy McGuire from the Jeopardy Clue Crew (as in, the Jeopardy game show), who chatted it up with KGUN viewers and posed for photos. <br />

I love commercials, infomercials, almost more than actual programs. I learn about products and things going on and I am always fascinated by how they're presented.<br />
<br />
Arby's has been running national TV campaigns for various specialty menu items in recent months "We have the meats!" and one item caught my eye, the Loaded Curly Fries. They looked wonderful on TV and the description sounded amazing. Curly fries with bacon, cheese and ranch on top.<br />
<br />
You should know that I love and prefer fast food to fancy sit down restaurants. Eating always upsets my stomach no matter what it is, so there is little joy in dining. Fast food is quick, cheap, and gives me the same stomach churning result that a $50 dinner does. So why waste money?<br />
<br />
Back to the loaded curly fries, they were in a pretty small bowl and had four little pieces of bacon (my best guess is they took one strip and cut it into pieces, the cheese sauce they put on the Beef and Cheddar sandwich, a sprinkling of shredded cheese (why that was added in addition to the cheese sauce was a mystery to me), and ranch dressing.<br />
<br />
My review: It wasn't very delicious. And I usually adore this sort of thing.<br />
<br />
I'm sure they skimped on the bacon because that's the expensive ingredient. But what would make the loaded ranch fries rock stars would be to skip the cheese, amp up the bacon, and the squirt of ranch is fine. As they served it to me, once I stuck my fork in and started to kind of blend the items in the bowl it literally made it a curly fries, cheese and ranch soup.<br />
<br />
The roast beef sandwich I had with it was wonderful as they always are at Arby's. A little Arby's Sauce on that and it's freakin' amazing.<br />

I was asked as part of that department's staff to help out with this weekend's Wheelmobile event.<br />
<br />
The Wheelmobile is a giant yellow RV (and trailer) that travels around the United States each year putting on events in search of new contestants for the Wheel Of Fortune TV game show.<br />
<br />
It's fun to watch potential contestants get called on stage, play a round of the game and solve a puzzle, and show their personalities to show producers on-site in the hopes that they could get a shot of being on the show.<br />
<br />
KGUN 9 station personalities and on-camera talent were on stage as well. This was a two day event, and during the Saturday session (which was the one I was at) there was Tina Jennings from the Morning Blend, Chief Meteorologist Erin Christiansen, and Good Morning Tucson anchor Pat Parris to draw names of contestants to go on stage and help to get the crowd at Casino Del Sol's AVA Amphitheatre excited to be there.<br />
<br />
A highlight of the event for me was the catering. I enjoyed some eats between shows during the afternoon and had some delicious potato salad. The last time the station hosted this event in 2014, they also had delicious potato salad but in 2014 it had bacon. This batch didn't have bacon and while I wished that it did, I ate it anyway and it was good.<br />
