Early.

It is 8:51 AM.

Can I just point out that it is Sunday?

I don't usually wake up this early on week days, much less on my precious Sunday.

Yet here I am.

I woke up early to do a phone interview with some radio station in Charlotte, NC. Don't get me wrong, I kind of like the media stuff, particularly radio and print media, but it always breaks my heart a little to get up so early, spend 15 minutes persuing polls and checking stories published in the last hour via google news, and then do 7 minutes (usually less!) with some dude with a voice so bizarre and radi0-ish I can't hardly pay attention to anything else, much less think AND speak deep thoughts about the politics of our day.
