Coming back from a pretty crazy weekend.  Sue had to rush her Dad, who was visiting from Maine,  to the ER.  Suddenly she found herself in a situation like you’d find on “Cops”!  More on that later.  What happened to the Pioneers in Vegas?  Were they up late hitting the casino or the all-you-can-eat buffet?  Better “luck” next year!  Tarantino’s new movie kicked butt at the box office…his biggest opening ever.  It’s on my “gotta go see now” list.  The weather held out for the Pittston Tomato Fest.  It was also a great day in Mt Top on Sunday for the Championship Game of a Little League fundraiser for the Vasculitis Foundation.  It rained everywhere else but here.  I was invited to be guest PA Announcer for the kids…what a great honor.  The winning team hit 5 over the fence, with one HR blast nearly putting a crater-like dent in my SUV!

BIG BROTHER EVENT

I hosted a day out with our newest little brother Ryan from Big Brothers/Big Sisters on Saturday.  We had a blast @ Rich’s Golf Center in Wyoming.  Then we hit up the DQ on Wyoming Ave.  If you have the time, you must get involved with BBBS.  You won’t be disappointed.  I can’t believe how much fun I have acting like a kid on these events.

THE WHEEL OF RAW EGGS

Thursday morning we roll in the WHEEL OF RAW EGGS.  Our Intern Snuggy has agreed to drink a raw egg shake.  How many eggs?  That’s to be determined by the spin of the wheel.   Do you think Snuggy will be able to keep the eggs down?  It could mean W-W-W Raw tickets in the first 5 rows if you are correct.

SUE CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A “COPS”-LIKE MOMENT

Sue had a crazy day on Saturday.  Her parents were visiting and she had to take her Dad to the ER when he was complaining of a fever.  ERs are the worst on the weekends and Sue’s experience was no different.  “Sex & the City” was playing on the TV in the waiting room.  Apparently a Mom felt offended since she had her daughter with her and let the entire ER know about it.  A verbal fight broke out and security was called.  Yeah, Sue found herself in a “Cops”-like moment.  Luckily things were diffused before it got physical.

It’s really crazy how advanced we are. The second your kid does something cute, the whole world can see. I think i’ve watched this tiny person like 20-something times. If, god forbid, i’m ever blessed with a tiny little mini me, I hope it has an awesome personality like this munchkin!

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of dj’ing Mike and Michelle’s wedding! They surprised all of their guests with an awesome first dance!

 I was hoping the mysterious odor in our office would be gone by today … not so much. An exterminator was supposed to come in and find out if something died in the vents or something, but clearly the issue has not been resolved. I can’t even breathe in there. Makes me sick. So i’m back in digital … where no one plays any music during the day and there are no speakers on this computer. I digress.

 What a freakin weekend! I took a little road trip to DC/VA with Tanya for CRUE FEST and WOOO what a show.  I live for concerts.  The energy of a live show just gets me going … that combined with adult beverages. Apparently there’s a law in VA that you can’t drink outside at concert venues. It’s a good thing we brought LOTS of Solo cups for beer pong! We attempted to play some pong, but got shut down real quick by the 17 year old, yellow poncho wearing,   ”security” boys that ruled the lot.  They were loving their little power trip.

   It downpoured. My straight hair went curly. We were all soaked. But you know what? No one cared. I traded a boy 2 beers for 2 poncho outfits and we were SET. When I say outfits, I mean, PANTS and a TOP … poncho-ed out. The most ridic thing is that people kept COMPLIMENTING ME ON MY PONCHO OUTFIT.  Once we were in, I tossed it.  It wasn’t very cute.

 I made some not-so-awesome choices, but i’m only sharing a chosen few on the air. We made our way down to the pit and were perfectly up close for the entire show! I was in my glory. I love being in new places where there’s a real SLIM chance you’ll run into anyone you know… it’s the perfect time to act a fool and be wild. And that I did. I found my victim. He said “Hey Mami!” I said, “I’m no one’s Mami, but what’s up Papi?” He was adorable. Tall, handsome, and he was sporting a VIBRANT fun personality. My boyfriend from Baltimore for the night, Tommy. We had a blast. It was perfectly understood that we were going to dance, and scream, and have the best flirtacious time ever, and then say goodbye at the end of the night. I hate guys who can’t just have fun then and there and are just worried about whether or not you’re going to hang out with them later. Boyfriend from Baltimore was my fav!  Not to sound totally ridic, but … knowing VERY LITTLE about him, (and by very little I mean – I know his first name, I know he has 8 tattoos, and he’s from Baltimore) he’s definitely my idea of a good time and is total prospective boyfriend material. Just not for me. The whole distance thing isn’t for me. Outgoing, fun, cute, full of personality,  laid back, and socially NORMAL. 

  There’s really not much more to say about Boyfriend from Baltimore, Papi, except … he asked me if I had any gum and I didn’t have more … so I totally gave him my 4 hours long already chewed gum, and he took it… and returned the favor an hour or so later with a “fresh” piece he had only been chewing for a few minutes. Looking back, totally gross… but what’s the difference between sticking your tongue down and strangers throat and chewing a strangers gum? I’m young and I make stupid choices when I’m drinking. Sue me.

You know what the biggest challenge of the day was? Trying to get wet jeans BACK ON in the tiny stall when you’re tipsy and SOAKED. Yup. Not so fun. Took every ounce of energy I had, while balancing my bud light lime. Skill.

Ohhhh and I got soooo many compliments on my tattoo that day… 570  Tattooing Co. of course! Go see Ron Russo!

Finishing up my 3rd week since heart surgery.  Holy —-!  Hard to believe this Tuesday it will be exactly 2 months since I was fileted like a fish!  Every day gets better.

“INGLORIOUS BASTERDS” & SUE’S DAD

I so want to see this movie but Sue’s parents are in town for the weekend.  Sue’s Dad is a history buff.  Should I try convincing him that the new Tarantino flick is nothing but a WW2 flick?  Would that be selfish of me?  Would he appreciate Quentin’s take on the war?  You guys had some great advice.

SNUGGY’S TEN COMMANDMENTS

Our intern is about to move in with a house full of girls @ Bloom.  They have already come up with a list of rules Snuggy must follow or else he gets kicked to the curb.

Here’s the list:

1.  You must ALWAYS wear pants!

2.  You break it, you out!

3.  You eat it, you out!

4.  After you’re done in the bathroom, PUT SEAT DOWN!

5.  When we say “Don’t come in,” we mean DON’T COME IN!  (includes bathroom, bedroom or if we lock you out of the house for any reason)

6.  No girls allowed unless you have permission.  (This won’t be hard to follow because you can’t get one anyway!)

7.  Pay your part of the rent, or get out!

8.  No partying unless permitted.  (We’re here to go to school)

9.  CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN! (Do your chores and no one gets hurt)

10  NO SINGING AT ANYTIME (You can’t, so don’t!)

There they are!  Did they miss anything?  Are the girls being to harsh on Snuggy?  How long do you giving this living arrangement?  Let us know what you think.

I GET TO BE A KID THIS WEEKEND!

I get to hang with our new little brother Ryan this weekend.  We plan on hitting Rich’s Golf Center in Wyoming for mini-golf & video games, then pizza or ice cream right after.  I’ve been in the BBBS program for over 2 years now and have had a blast.  I get to meet some great young kids that need someone else to look up to in their lives.  If you can give up some time, why not volunteer to be a Big Brother or Big Sister today?  You won’t be disappointed.

Out the door for the weekend.  We’ve got tix in the FIRST 5 ROWS for W-W-E RAW next week.  Find out how to win Monday morning @ 8!

SNUGGY’S BIG NEWS

Yesterday Intern Snuggy called me with some jaw dropping news.  He demanded an apology because I doubted he could accomplish this goal.  What was the news?  We spent an hour on the show taking guesses.  Great stuff….

>>He’s getting a sex change
>>He’s gay
>>He’s going to become a baby daddy
>>He got hired by you guys
>>He got a part in a movie
>>He already got kicked out of his college apartment by the 4 girls
>>He got a promotion at Walmart

So what was Snuggy’s Big News?  He will be in an upcoming Weekender as Model-of-the-Week.  Still can’t believe it!  If you can’t find the Weekender that week, it’s because Snuggy emptied out all the sidewalk boxes!

DAUGHTRY ANNOUNCES ARENA TOUR

Chris Daughtry announced that he’s hitting the road with an Arena-only tour.  Hmmm…we have an Arena, and we also have a lot of Daughtry fans.  It’s not official yet, but NEPA is buzzing about the online leak of Daughtry’s show Nov 16 @ the Wachovia Arena.  Keep listening for on sale details and an internet pre-sale. 

“We dreamed about how it would feel to play these songs to packed arenas, and we’re excited to get our chance,” said Chris about the upcoming tour.  “We have a great show planned and can’t wait to hit the road to share it with our fans!”

I shoved a couple random outfits and makeup essentials into my cute rose and checker-pattern Betsey Johnson overnight bag and hit the door for work this morning. The second we get off the air, i’m hitting the road. I like to call it the KICK OFF TO TANYA and AMANDA’S Summer Concert Tour! My friend Tanya, who also works here at the station, and I are driving to DC tonight to visit a friend who moved there from Wilkes Barre … but the real reason … CRUE FEST just so happens to be there this weekend! Yeah sure, they’re coming here September 4th too, but why not double dip if we can?! All I need for a rockin weekend is in my trunk right now, ready to be reckoned with. We even thought about buying an inflatable beer pong table… but i’m thinking the actual act of finding somewhere to tie it up in the lot while tailgating is probs not going to happen. So we’ll just do it the old fashioned way. Bring a table. Ahhh I can’t wait! I also just realized that REV THEORY and CAVO are playing on the small stage at Crue too! I’m a loser when it comes to concerts. It’s like Christmas for me. I can barely sleep the night before and if I do finally get to sleep, I’m dreaming unrealistic fantasies about being brought up on stage for a drum solo. Ridic, I know.

ROAD TRIP! Wooo! Ah I can’t wait! Next weekend Tanya and Amanda’s Road Trip Summer Concert Series continues to Taylor Swift in Connecticut!

Oh, btw – Sunday when I get back, it’s our first Softball game. I hate to admit it, but my arm is still sore from practice 3 days ago. That’s what I get for not playing in like, 5 or 6 years.

Hello Wednesday.  You’ll never hear us call it H Day.  I can’t even say it here.  Never been a fan of the Wednesday H word.  Did you stay up and watch Britney on Letterman?  I think she looked good, and she reads real well from a cue card.  The last few times I’ve seen Brit-Brit on TV she hasn’t had to adlib.  I thought the Top 10 was pretty funny.  Click the link below if you missed it.

BRITNEY TOP TEN

REACTION TO BRIT’S TOP TEN

>>She looks like she’s gotta pee.

>>It was cute…she’s getting back to normal.

>>She’s a Mom.  I thought it was stupid and not funny at all.

>>This is just like her concert…everything is scripted & lip synched.

>>Mmmmm.  I want to take a ride on Britney’s circus.

Britney brings her Circus tour to Philly.  Keep it on KRZ to win tix.

TWEET IF YOU’RE BEAT

Wrestler Triple H was on Jimmy Fallon’s show last week.  He jokingly said the loser of this weekend’s “Summerslam” will have to “Tweet that they were beat”.

Next week we hook you up with tickets in the first 5 rows for W-W-E Raw @ the Arena Oct. 5.

SNUGGY’S TEN COMMANDMENTS

Our soon to be ex-intern Snuggy is moving in with 4 girls @ Bloomsburg in a few weeks.  They are busy putting together their list of the “10 Commandments” he must follow to keep from getting kicked out of the apartment.  The only one we’ve heard so far is “Must wear pants at all times”.

Make sure you’re are listening this Friday @ 7:30 for the complete list.
