I should've gone to the beach
yesterday. Really, I should've!
For the second time in five days it hit
seventy in Marquette yesterday, a fact that makes it very hard for
one to believe that Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away. And it
would've been a perfect day to take a beach day, except for the fact
that my schedule was a little out of the ordinary this week. Instead
of taping TV today like I usually do, we shot Wednesday, which means
that I couldn't work ahead a little to take a little time off
tomorrow.
But, then, it's the middle of November.
Who in their right mind even thinks about working ahead to be able
to take a few hours off to go to the beach? I mean, who aside from me?
Of course, today's not supposed to be
anything like today, so I'm thinking that yesterday was a wasted
beach day. Well, not “wasted”, because you don't expect to have
beach days in November. But “wasted” in the sense that a
surprise opportunity was there and I wasn't able to take advantage
of. But, what are you gonna do? If I kept on edge trying to take
beach days in November, I'd burn myself out in the, what, 15 years
between each opportunity.
Oh well. At least I snuck out for a
walk yesterday while it was warm. And while it wasn't the beach, it
was 70 degrees in November. And I'm not gonna complain about that!

Speaking of the “High School Bowl”
we shot Wednesday, I don't know how it's gonna play on camera, but I
think it was among the best we've done in the 2-plus years I've been
hosting the show. It was just loose and goofy and fun; I hope that
translates on screen. We'll find on January 7th (when it
airs)!
On that note, have yourself a fantastic
weekend. And depending upon where you are while reading this, get
out and enjoy some beach time yourself if you can!
