I'm Baaaaccckkk!
I feel much better this week. The last time I posted I felt sick as a dog with zero energy, but after a day off and a nice relaxing weekend....I FEEL GREAT! Thanks to everyone who wrote asking if I was okay. I'm fine. Man, it feels good to be loved :-)
I had quite a few comments about my post last week. It was the one about a researcher who claims women talk three times more than men. I loved the feedback. There was some funny comments on there. Check it out if you haven't looked at it yet.
Today, I filled in for Robin and let me tell you, I got so sleepy on the set, for a minute. Has that ever happened to you? You're at work, maybe in a meeting, at your desk or whatever, and all of sudden the sleepy spell hits you and there's nothing you can do about it. That happened to me this morning....the bad thing is I have a job where everyone can see me. The good thing is that it happened during a piece of video where someone was talking and nobody could see me. I snapped out of it real quick. I don't know where it came from. I feel great and well rested just caught a quick and fast moving case of the sleepy spell. It was during Pat Tomasulo's sports cast, so that might have something to do with it :-) Just kidding. I actually think Pat has a very entertaining way of delivering sports especially for girls like me who are not that interested in sports to begin with.
Well, I guess I should stop now before I start sounding too chatty about nothing.
One more thing, for the next three Tuesday's(12/5,12/12,12/19) you can watch my shopping reports. It's my new assignment around here. Pretty much everyone knows shopping is my sport, so now I'm shopping for you. I found some great holiday buys, for him, for her and for anyone under 25 dollars. Good stuff. Check it out.

Hi Val: You could fool me. You look super on a.m. TV. I laughed this a.m. when Pat called you "sister!" I didn't hear what you replied to him. But wasn't that out of order for him, or was there some teasing beforehand that warranted that.
Robin and Larry used to tease Mike Barz about his lengthy sports reports. They often pretended to be sleeping as the camera switched to them.
I used to teach grade school--50 kids in a room. I never dare fall asleep in that war zone.
I hope your mom comes back on again. She was precious.
Good luck with the shopping detail. You've moving there nicely--but stay with us

I had sleepy spells before, to Val. I work in security. I have to be alert at all times. BUt this one day, at the courthouse, I was setting in court room hearing a case and I close my eyes for a second. And I was out, I snape out of it quick. No one saw me . Thank God. I know what you mean. I have 2 kids, both 1 years of age, they are 9 months apart. They keep my wife and I busy. *I love watch WGN Morning News you guys are great and funny . bye

I thought I was the only one who got those sleepy spells. Man, I know what you mean. One minute you're fine, next minute your head's snapping up at the speed of light. Good luck. What I do is use binder clips if it's at a meeting, clip one of those bad boys to your finger and you're wide awake.

Val, You make me late for work! Just to pay you a complimant, you are beautiful, and when you are anchoring for Larry or Robin, I get frozen watching you. Not only do you do a great job, but you have such a bright presence. You should go ahead and do news, weather, sports, entertainment, everything, but then I would never get to work!
