High Anxiety

January 15, 2008

This morning a crew from “Inside Edition” came and took over my household. As you might imagine, it was fucking insane.

(Photo taken by the kindly camera dude, who knew
just what was important to focus on in this shot)

More soon. After a whole lot of drinking.

You and the dog look great! But the guy in the foreground looks like he has a bushy squirrel tail. Was he a mutant?

Holy crap, do I feel for you. All the best with how they edit the piece.

Hey. Great photo.

Now... all I have to do is add a little hat [Furtive photo-editing noises] and I have the perfect place for it:

"Fox News Presents - 'Bloggers In Funny Hats: Liberal Conspiracy or Terrorist Propaganda?'"

actually, it was fun... except for the four-hour-long anxiety attack-ness of it all. blaargh.

thank god there's the AI season premiere open thread tonight -- gives me an excuse to unwind. and by "unwind" i of course mean "get shitfaced and type 'LOL!' a lot".

You both are adorable, though Truman does seem to be soaking up the limelight a little more readily than you. Your hair is long!

Bottoms up.

Is the Christmas tree still up or is that a prop for the shoot?

Posted by: Neil | January 15, 2008 at 06:01 PM

I hope it all went well.

Go get 'em! You look great...I wish all photos of my in any camera had a lovely blurry artiste effect. Better than Botox!

Oddly enough, I happen to have just last night read a David Foster Wallace essay that might shed light on the squirrel-tail issue:

"Weasel = the weird gray fuzzy thing that sound techs put over their ... mikes ... to keep annoying wind-noise off the audio. It looks like a large mouse-colored version of a certain popular kind of fuzzy bathroom slipper. (N.B. Weasels, which are also sometimes worn by sound techs as headgear ... when it's really cold, are thus sometimes known as tech toupees.)"

Anyway, you two certainly do look close-up ready. What a trip this whole thing has been! I was rendered slack-jawed this weekend when I saw that the WP story had been picked up by the wires. Sitting at my dining room table reading about you and Jim in my two-bit local newspaper was a profoundly discombobulating experience.

When is the episode airing?

when I read this in bloglines I thought it said, "This morning a crew from Inside Edition came over and took my husband."

I was all, "what'd he do?"

Posted by: jdg | January 16, 2008 at 10:31 PM

Inside Edition! Now where's the clip? Someone post this on youtube ASAP.

Posted by: ozma | January 17, 2008 at 03:30 AM
