My favorite Dallas Morning News photog, who -- in spite of being a Columbia grad or something --happened to win a bevy of Missouri's POY awards, recently left "The News" for sunnier, siliconier pastures at The LA Times.
Ironically, there are more plastic surgeons per capita in Dallas than there are in LA, but I liked the alliteration. And the word I made up.
This is sad.. but great news for J Woodward, if he ever manages to get a moment to read the paper between cramming for law tests, transcribing his professor's notable musings and O-Ding on Starbucks espresso. The latter of which, I am strongly in favor.

WOO HOO!!!
Can I just say that my future husband, who shall remain nameless, appeared dripping wet in a live shot last night? He looked extremely HOT. Notably, it was in front of a Walmart. Many of my Mizzou broadcast brethren might recall another memorable performance in front of a Walmart, by a colleague named Wu Deng. If you need more to go on.. this is what he said, in a standup for a story about Walmart being an equal opportunity employer: "Here I am at Walmart, where surely there are many gays working behind me."

For the Record...
In spite of all the heartache brought on by TV's Mr Big and all the real-life Mr Big's I know, I am rooting for a Big/Carrie conclusion of Sex and the City tomorrow night.
Also on the boob tube tomorrow night is the anti-Mr Big, Mike Hall, appearing on ESPN's Dream Job.

Whats your PLASURE?
Sara Lasure (pronounced LAY-zhur) came to visit for my birthday this week. We stayed at the Magnolia in Dallas for a couple nights, did the cultural thing by going to the new Nasher Sculpture Garden and the Picasso exhibit at the DMA, and did the completely mindless thing by hitting shopping areas at West Village, Mockingbird Station, Northpark and the Galleria as well. But good times were had by all... thanks to all who joined in on the festivities, and those who were there, getting plastered, in spirit.

This Smacks of Desperation
I understand that my Gucci sandals might fetch some cash on the black market of Central Texas, so I SUPPOSE it makes sense that they are gone. BUT MY FIVE DOLLAR FLIP FLOPS?? BOTH PAIRS?? WHAT?!?!?!?
In doing inventory, I also discovered that the bastards used MY garbage bags to hoard off my belongings. Hey, crack addicts, bring your own boxes when you shop at Jack's Den of Expensive Stuff for Singles.

The 40% Chance of Rain
I came home from a trip to mid-Mo to find my apartment had been ramshackled. Someone had broken in and taken EVERYTHING of value, from old drivers licenses to my TV/DVD player, to perfume bottles, to my computer... sigh... the hard drive.. :(.
Just when I thought 2004 couldn't get any worse, I get robbed not only of my things, but of my sense of security. What to do when your expectations make like the Titanic?

The Latest...
In another chapter of the unending car saga, I now must switch rental cars, because my Spawn of Satan beemer isn't fixed yet, (News Flash, Wade's Auto Body: It will NEVER be fully repaired, it's a LEMON) and the Kia may possibly die on me. I believe I now get another finely made Korean vehicle, a Daewoo. SWEET. So long as it has a CD player in which I can play my new Starbucks CD.
