Oh My GOFF!

I'm back in the DC area after adventures in L.A., Iowa and recently South Carolina. Every morning I wake up, energized and ready to help you get around your traffic troubles! While I love the job, roads aren't the only things I like to talk about- that's the beauty of this blog! Thanks for stopping by and feel free to comment... I'll respond!

AngCAM: Catches me enjoying some coffee in between traffic reports friday morning!

After a week mixed with romance,chocolate hangovers, inclement weather, horocious traffic on icey roads... a las the weekend is here!
(note: horocious = horrible + atrocious, a word invented by mi amiga Jenn Caugh)

Are you feelin' the Friday Lite? Traffic is generally better this day of the week- a lot more peeps beat the rush by hittin' the road early- to get that "one more day" over with. I think the thought of freedom being so close naturally puts us in a better mood. This had me thinking of starting "DaNcE PaRty Fridays" on the am show. WX Kim is all over this! KIM, Howard, Jeff Napdhin, Me and Miss Trenice show you how it works:
At the end of the show during my last traffic hit... we tag out with a jam out. Pump up the music and whoever is "in the broadcast houz" steps in at the green wall and shows us their moves.

Not only does this promote a healthy heart www.goredforwomen.org I think more importantly it's a great boost to the spirit.

So where do we go now? Kim and I looked into the matter only to have our buzz temporarily killed. There's a bunch of music licensing stuff to get through before you can shake it "like a polaroid picture!".

thought bubble: we could dance-off to 9 News Now music)
afterthought bubble: breakin' it down to a "breaking news" animation- not so hot.

I think I'll check-in with Steve Houk. He not only heads our station's marketing dept... he's also a very talented musician. The man knows music and who knows...his promo library might just have something that can get us moving!

In the meantime, I'm calling on all D-P-F supporters out there to Speak Up. The viewer's voice does matter.

Tell 9 News Now you want a revolution.
Tell 9 News Now you want to
DANCE!

Speaking of Dances- we're still weeks away from the big one but I can smell March Madness around the corner. Saturday... expect traffic to inflate around the Patriot Center at my beloved alma mater of Final Four fame...George Mason. Homecoming is here. Yes, our celebration centers around Basketball. For those less informed- the patriots don't play with pigskin. It will be the first game I've been to since leaving more than half a decade ago.
I'm psyched!I get to return to the days of my yesteryear- reuniting with my sisters from AOII... spending the day before looking for some smokingly-spirited gameday gear- c'mon admit it girls I'm not the only one who does it! Plus, nothing says GAME ON like a shirt from Robert Rodriguez! Knot note: "ding ding ding"we've got a WINNER! The Tiffany patent platforms from my previous post will officially be part of my "aisle style" in April.
