Calendar Girl Blog: Weirdness

Last year at this time, an acquaintance of mine was working on a project with Hunter S. Thompson. Deep in the woods of Colorado, she emailed me to request that I ship a calendar ASAP. Apparently she'd been chatting up Breast of Canada with the Gonzo gang.

I promptly fired one off.

Then I promptly forgot about it. Until yesterday.

Currently, I'm toying with the idea of cranking this blogging thing up a couple of notches. I've been pretty consistently writing three blogs for a handful of months and I'm digging the process.

About 350 of you readers come here every day, which I must say turns my crank in a very good way. Yes, it seems really weird to me that this could be my vocation, that I could turn pro as they say in the biz, but what else is this world if not weird.

So there I was, surfing around for some courage, when I came across this incredibly appropriate quote.
"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
- Hunter S. Thompson 1937 - 2005
Calendar Girl will take this as a sign from Hunter.

I love it. But why wait? The going is always weird if you know where to look, and that's because the weird are already pros, and a lot of those pros . . .

Besides, weird is just another version of wired. As in hot?
