Legs and logs

Today was a control room day, and not a bad one to be scheduled for.  The show featured a six year old who could play the piano like a pro - and could play any song once he's heard it a few times.  He was bright and cheery little ham, perfect for the program.  We also had Kelly Osborne as a guest on our Today's Professionals segment, and she was also a star.  Like somebody in the control room said, she's not afraid to speak her mind but she also has an appropriate degree of discretion.

I logged a bit more than an hour and a half of tapes - so in real time, it took me about three hours.  The tapes were pretty thick, in that they had many different images and sound bytes to log, which translates to a bunch of text.  Luckily there was a segment where the three Apollo astronauts were waiting in the mobile quarantine facility to speak with Nixon for about 15 minutes, so that went by in real time.  I also ended up running around 30 rock to pick up and deliver packages.  Those trips got me out of having to deliver something across town, however, which was lucky because I didn't bring my coat and it started raining today.
