DrummerDeanna lands a job...*phew*

[DrummerDeanna]

Well, my worries are over (for now) as I have received a job offer!

So, I will be moving to Rochester, New York in August..any Rochester area Ledgies out there? I'm a bit nervous about moving to a place where I know absolutely no one...but I'm excited too.

I will be a reporter/program host (All Things Considered) for WXXI radio.

In other news, I met Cokie Roberts yesterday, she was very nice. Then I went upstairs to have lunch and Cokie, Linda Wertheimer and Nina Totenberg were just sitting having lunch together....sooo..I ran downstairs to get my camera (good photo-op there) and when I went back they were gone :(

Anyway...wanted to share the news about the job :D

Yes that's what I've heard from every Rochesterian I've met! ;)

Seriously though....since I'm coming from a place where the seasons range from hot to hotter to well at least it's not Phoenix hot I am looking forward to a place with four seasons...and though I'm sure it'll be quite an adjustment, I'm really looking forward to it!!

[wondergirl9847]

LMAO! I am a serious moron today. You are in Las Cruces, NM...where did I get that you were in El Paso?

Sorry, I should have said New Mexico....New York....same difference. LOL

I am officially offened...El Paso = skankville haha....just kidding, I might as well be in El Paso, it's only like 30 minutes away...and hey...the weather is the same....I got your drift...

I'm just hoping that I don't end up with seasonal depression because of the long and hard winter...hopefully I'll be amused with the novelty of it for me this first year...I'm looking forward to actually being able to wear a sweater on Chrismtas...woohoo!!

I'll be curious to see how you like the seasons. I hate the snow, but I hope you enjoy it.

It's a BEAUTIFUL place to be in the fall...definately. Winters are way harsh though.

The only thing Texans can beat...Are their lips (As in "Your lips move, But I cannot hear what you're saying")

[wondergirl9847]

You know you love Texas, that's why you are coming to the Dallas show. It's all a front that you love Fleetwood Mac....it's your love for the Lone Star State!!!! :nod:

I won't be cryin'.....until I see Red Rover. LOL!!

BTW, Dallas does suck...come to Fort Worth!! Cowtown!!

Ya called on that one :nod: but my older brother who lives in Lubbock sees it my way still :laugh:

Dallas is fine in my books but I still hate nearly all the Dallas/Houston ( Die Astros, Die )/Texas pro sports teams (Excluding the Texas Rangers baseball team whose best players came from the Oklahoma Redhawks Triple A farm team).

Hold it, aren't they the same place? ;) :lol:
