This is what you do at the bar after you quit drinking. Mrs IM is working a fundraiser, and she gave me a reprieve (I was supposed to be the money counter at the beer booth at the Fresno State football game) because I had a busy day and a shitty week. So I went to a nice place for dinner and sat at the bar. I’m trying to decide whether I should have dessert.

I worked this morning, speaking at a conference for farm labor contractors. I was on the radio Friday morning to promote the conference. The host really liked me, and was interested in my Bosnia experience, so he had me stay and tape a segment for his evening show. He said he wants me to come in again, and maybe even guest host sometimes. It sounds like fun. Have one of my favorites from one of the absolute best albums from the 80s that is generally unknown.  Rumor is that it was the lowest selling major label album ever, which is just tragic.  They got dropped by the label after the next one, which they followed with a massive commercial hit (Grave Dancers Union) after almost quitting music altogether.

I have to miss Radwood in Orange County because I can’t get back from Reno (where I will be speaking and doing a legal clinic at the dairy and livestock winter convention) in time to get down there for the show. The people who organize Radwood are very cool, though, and gave me a refund. Since I don’t drink or gamble, and will be stuck in Reno for 3 days, I am splurging on a rental muscle car. It will be a Mustang or Camaro or a Charger, and I won’t know until I pick it up. I figure I might as well explore, but it won’t be nearly as fun without my travel partner Toby.

Sorry for rambling, but I am just grumpy and killing time.

Radio. Do it. Get involved. It can be relaxing at times and fun. Mostly because if it’s not your bread n butter job, then it becomes enjoyable. The studio is a comfortable place. Quiet overall with acoustic walls. Only necessary people there. It’s something I always liked about it when I ga ve it a shot in my past.

Only is it's a good dessert. Shitty desert should be passed on. I betting this would be a good one though.

Hopefully the muscle rental won't have a V6.

The car museum in Reno is pretty nice if you get a chance. I’ve never done anything else there. I don’t think I’ve even actually done work there, just flew in to get to Truckee (which was a pretty neat little town too).

Your coffee looks yummy and I vote for dessert.

H ope you get a good car in Reno - I’d kinda like to drive a new Camaro, haven’t even sat in one yet. Last time I was in Reno was my honeymoon...(we rented a brand new 1st gen Nissan Altima in that turquoise color and drove up to Tahoe and over to Virginia City...)

You on the radio would be incredibly fascinating. You’re a well-learned and passionate guy. Who I occasionally disagree with, but you always bring something to back it up.

One of your perspectives on the role of defence made me appreciate the defence lawyer I work with way more.
