wow
I had to write this down.
You ever have one of those days that end up being extremely exhausting, yet you were not mentally prepared for it? I just completed one of those days that started with running 6 miles in slippery snow. I woke up at 8:45 going on about 5 3/4 hours of sleep and am about to go to bed at around 2:30 am. For once in an extremely long time I feel like I have actually earned my warm bed on my quiet street. What an enjoyable/rewarding/tiring Saturday. Good night friends.

Mr. Conan O'Brien
C/O Late Night with Conan O'Brien
30 Rockefeller Plaza
Room 901W
New York, NY 10112
Dear Mr. O'Brien,
I wanted to write you first and foremost to thank you for everything that you have done for people like myself. People who laugh at things that are genuinely funny. People who love dirty humor and pushing the limits of being awesome. There are a good amount of us out there who have watched you for a long time in the 12:35 time slot.
I first starting watching you daily in December of 2000. I would catch you in the summers before that daily, and here and there during the school year. When I finally got a TV for Christmas in 2000 I was pleased to know that you would be on the TV making me laugh as I fell asleep from Monday-Friday (back then your shows were usually reruns on Monday, no gripes here though). I would always laugh at whatever it was you were doing that night. Analogies for the SATs, Desk Driving, Taking you Taurus for a spin, Satellite TV surfing, Via Satellite, In the year 2000, If they Mated, Hollywood secrets, Hollywood guest book, 5th grade coloring, Joe's bar, horny manatee, state quarters, stamps, etc, etc, etc. You never had a show that made me think "wow I didn't laugh at all". You are not afraid to call out silliness of the show and I love that. People can say that you are vulgar or childish, but I don't. Your show has been such a staple for myself for the past 9 years that in just over 24 hours I won't know what to do.
I am lucky to have had you in my late night life for as long as I have. I have watched you for over half of your late night career. I have heard the better half, but I cannot judge that. I can honestly say that you are the best late night host that I have come across. Adding up Letterman, Leno, Kimmel, etc. together and they are still nowhere near your stratosphere. I honestly feel that when your time of hosting late night TV is over you will go down as the best. Your demeanor to your guests is of genuine interest. It is easy to tell when you carry an interview from some prick celebrity who couldn't give 2 shits for being on your show. You carry them though, you make them look good, but I know its mostly you. You are witty and cleaver and can go off the cuff with the best of them.
I will never stop watching you, but I must say I will miss you on late night. Jimmy Fallon will most likely do a fine job with Late Night, but he won't be as good as you. It really isn't a far comparison for him though, I mean, you are the best. I am torn emotionally about your exit/promotion from late night. Obviously you will do the tonight show and will become bigger and get more viewers. You will most likely need to tone down some jokes too. Jokes that are amazing and vulgar and dirty. You cannot beat those jokes. The Paris hilton jokes. The kirstie alley jokes. The michael jackson jokes. All the controversy that you did was always great. They made people laugh. I guess myself, like many other loyal viewers, are just selfish and want to see you stay at late night. If people don't want to stay up late to watch you then fuck em, cause we were there most every night. I don't know how many times in the past 9 years that I have watched you with friends and you killed us with your jokes. I remember in high school one of my favorite things was going into school the next day after a show and talking about the show from the night before (remember those days Andy??). You were just an escape from whatever was going on in my life on that particular day. Bad day? You would give me laughs? Good day? You would give me laughs.
Good Luck Mr. O'Brien. I will wish you from Late Night with all my heart. It honestly hasn't hit me yet that you will not be on at 11:37pm after tomorrow night. Please do not change at all (wishful thinking, don't change too much though) and keep the crazy, kooky skits that are so great. You are the best. See you soon friend.
Sincerely,
Sean M. Moriarty

Amazing
This is the Florida Panther's radio announcer. His calls are extremely amazing and I think some people who read this will enjoy this.

Valentine's Day
Yesterday was Valentine's Day. I went to Sonic with Chris (thanks for driving) Andy and Caffunky. It was a fun time for a Saturday night. I felt a little like high school for the whole Saturday night drive to savage (gross) to get some food. It was just a fun little ride and the juice was worth the squeeze (as they say) for the fact that the burger and shake that I had was amazing. So Valentine's day was good in that sense. My friend in Jersey, Jennifer, was the only person to wish me a Happy Valentine's Day (not even my mom! Damn Sue you slipping!) so you are awesome Jennifer. Much <3.
I am excited that February is already half over. Once March gets here it is so on. The weather warmed up at the very end of January and stayed decent (high 20's low 30's) only to drop back down now. Next Saturday it is supposed to be 10!! WTF!!?? That is a big bummer, but gotta just deal and keep on going forward.
MYSA (where I interned in 2007) just posted a job opportunity that was basically what I was doing as an intern there in that glorious summer of 2007. I have not applied to it yet, but I will. I'm sure hella people will apply for it, but I might have an inside track since I interned there and know everyone there and have good relations with the people there??? I don't know. I think it would be a really sweet place to work full time. Just working the summer there I built relationships with the people who worked on different league admin stuff and it was just great talking about how psycho youth coaches/parents are. So my hopes are up, but not too high because I don't have confidence in anything job-wise these days. Do me a favor though and cross your fingers for your ol' boy.
I have been looking at my livejournal entries from years past and come to the realization that to have a good blog one needs to do things aside from just posting what they do with friends who read this blog. That is where doing other things comes into play. I have already taken that idea and ran with it for my running journal. I think that will turn into something that will be memorable (at least for me, I really don't know if anyone is reading it at all or not) since it will be a good 4 months of the ups and downs of attempting to run a marathon. Well with that being said I think that the posts in this blog will be a little bit shorter until I actually do something with my life. I'll probably start coming up with some creative stuff to do. I will eventually start posting pictures and what not.
I really can't wait to fish this summer. I want to go fishing with anyone who wants to go. It would be a damn fun time to be fishing with some KQ on the radio, a chest full of bottles of beer and the sun out. Man I long for summer to be able to do that. I haven't drank much this year and there are 2 parts of that. One is my whole running/trying to get a little more fit, but the other is that drinking in the winter (indoors) is nothing like drinking outside in the summer. The warm weather, drinking outside at 8 pm and see the sun set gently to the west as a little buzz comes about. Man it is just a glorious feeling. I sincerely look forward to that feeling.
Check out my other blog if you want, give suggestions. I used to have so many followers, now I have 2. I am please to see a certain jbb who is checking out my blog now. Thanks Bender, I didn't know that was you so it was definitely a pleasant surprise to see you are blogging now. You can give me the inside info on when blagojovich goes for his runs and how he gets his hair to look like a lego person.

Conan said that on his show and I love it so much. There is not a truer/funnier statement to be said about blago's hair. Conan will be going off the air as late night host on Friday night. Look for a tribute to him in this blog in the coming days. Definitely gonna be a tough pill to swallow when the lights go out on Late Night with Conan O'Brien at 12:37 am Saturday morning.
Talk soon gang!!

Solid time wasting websites
Grouphug.us has been one of my alltime favorite websites. Its a popsecrect anonymous type website where you just read peoples anonymous confessions. Everyone has crazy secrets that are sad/weird/funny. I, personally, can read them for hours.
fmylife.com is a site I was just informed of that is absolutly amazing. People tell stories that happen to them during the day that sucked and end them with "fml". What a great website. Everyone in the world can be a frequent poster on that website. Glorious.
Its fitting to be another beautiful day in plymouth. Above freezing 2 days in a row? Thats wild like coyotes.
