Breezy Weekend

Well, for me, Ike was a breeze! We had a gentle rain that lasted most of Saturday, and it was a little windy, but nothing like what I had expected. And we needed the rain! Unfortunately, Ike wasn't as kind to the coast, and I ask you to join me in keeping those people in your prayers.
I had a good weekend here. I got quite a bit accomplished, which is unusual for me! Mostly school work, but I did manage to get the laundry done and the kitchen cleaned up. I thought I'd turned on the dishwasher last night, but I guess I didn't... it's running right now, though!
Now I just have to get through Monday. No matter what the day brings, however, I know that it'll all be fixed tonight. It's my "Monday Meltdown" show on HotTrax, 7:00-9:00 ET (6:00-8:00 REAL time, lol). I usually start off that show with some mellow stuff... soft pop and country, and by the end I usually pick up the tempo some so that you're ready to rock with Jazzy when I'm finished. Generally, I just play what makes me feel good unless I get requests. So if you're not doing anything tonight, give me a listen... and make a request. It's easy... all you have to do is add HotTraxRadio to your Yahoo buddy list. Check out my playlist on the HotTrax website, and then make a request. We've even added a new stream that allows those with dial up, or slow service, to listen!
Okay... I'm off to get ready to face the day. Have a great Monday, y'all!

Ike Is Coming

Another week, another hurricane coming our way. Last week, what was left of Gustav parked over us for a couple of days, bringing some rain and a LOT of wind, and it looks like what is left of Ike, when it hits land, will be coming over us as well. Fun, fun. Looks like Friday afternoon will find me in yard protection mode... making sure all my potted plants are protected, and my hanging things brought under cover. Even as I type that, I know I will not have the worst of it. My heart and prayers go out to those who are in Ike's direct path as it hits the coast. I had the occasion to be about 90 miles from Galveston once when a hurricane hit, and it's not fun. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to be hit with the wind and water more than once, much less more than once a year. All of my friends on the coast will be in thoughts this weekend.

Hi Y'all!

Hi... I'm Texas and I love HotTrax Radio. I've been a DJ there for a couple of months now, and I've been a listener and a fan for about 8 months. I have discovered a lot of new music, and made some GREAT friends. If you haven't listened, check it out... http://www.HotTraxRadio.com . I am on the schedule twice a week... Monday and Friday. Tune in, check out my playlist, and make your request!
