Workin it at WYSO...

So. I never thought I would be this kind of person... but today I realized I am. Through an off comment that Kim made I realized that I fall into this grouping.... I have a real job and a fun job. I love my job. I think it is pretty sweet and I love my kids (I will love it a lot more next week canoeing the BOundary Waters I think!).... but I don't always enjoy it. There is way too much junk and drama that goes with it. I love it... but if I took a break from it for a while it would be OK!

Then I have my fun job. Kim says: "At least in your fun job you get to climb trees." Ahh yes... my fun job. Climbing trees and zipping off zip lines. THAT is a fun job. Even better is that since it is not something that I do full time I get to avoid all the general crap that goes on (I still get sucked in a little... I am a sucker for good drama... plus its that GIRL SCOUTS... that joint is ALL drama!!) I am a big fan of my fun job... and the general junk at my real job make me appreciate it even more... plus I get to be outside, occasionally sleep in a tent... oh, and that helmet I wear... that thing is AWESOME! (not!)

Today I went with Kim to her fun job. She is a fill in dj for WYSO when the regular mid-day host is away. SO. I got to appreciate my local NPR station, which I hadn't done much lately... AND I got to hang out in the radio room... AND I got to push "dump" a bunch when the music that we played had some not so promising lyrics. All in all it was fun to go with her and it was fun to see what life at Yellow Spring's NPR station is like.

And it was nice to remember why I love my fun job... and my real one!
