A good day! – San Francisco by April

I just was offered and accepted a job in San Francisco today, which is great. I’m super excited. It also puts my life into a chaotic tailspin as I move me, my dog, and my junk 1,200 miles over the next couple of months. Not to mention selling the house, going on a cruise in the middle of it all, and finishing up projects I have going on here in Santa Fe.

In other chaotic news, my friend Debra had signed me, her, and Teddy up for a new game show on VH-1 that revolves around pop culture. They received her application and want us to audition and interview to win $100,000 on the show. We would compete as a team and I would make my television premiere. I think we fly to Chicago in mid-March to do all of this screen testing. You all will get to see me live and in all my glory if we get picked.

All in all, a good day. And, I’m a little overwhelmed, too.

Does this all sound a bit like a plotline to “Laverne & Shirley?”

    Congratulations DAN!! You continue your amazing record of never being turned down for a job :-) I’m sure you are very excited and relieved and that makes me smile, sounds like you have a very exciting year ahead.

    Kickass!!! That is so fucking awesome. I cannot wait to come in visit you in your small overpriced rat infested apartment! We’re going to have so much fucking fun eating clam chowder out of bread bowls.

    Yes, but I’m not sure if you are cast as Carmine, Lenny, or Squiggy.

    I pray for the former.

    Congratulations Dan, that is SO cool! I had no doubt it would happen. San Fran will never be the same!

    Are you Laverne or Shirley?

    Welcome to the Bay Area…

    (God speed finding a decent priced place to live. However, if you win big on VH-1, you’re set).

    Oh honey! I’m so happy for you — though I’m selfishly sad to lose not only my crash pad in Santa Fe but also my one and only reason for coming back. Let me know how I can help with the move, and treat yourself to a Herradura (or four) at the Pink for me! xoxo

    Congratulations! Maybe you’ll be here in time for my birthday. A bunch of us have birthdays around the same time, actually, and sometimes we have a big group party.

    If we have one, and you’re here by then, consider yourself invited! That may help jumpstart your return to the City.

    Congrats! And thanks for calling me to tell me — it was a very nice gesture. Especially after that phone call we had just had. Eep. Sometimes I don’t know when to shut up.

    But again – congrats!

    I will toast to you doll.

    VH1 game show, how exciting.

    I was once on “Press your luck” but all I got was broken Lee Press on’s.

    Kisses, MargOH!
