He really is great! This is the article that was in the WPLN Newsletter about Blake. It's really cheesy and he wrote every word of it, but it's just kind of neat. Blake has been working super hard lately. Not that he didn't work hard before he started hosting Morning Edition, it's just that he's been working extra hard lately. He gets up super early (3:45am), gets to WPLN at 4:30am, and usually doesn't stop working until 5:00pm. He's been WPLN's workhorse lately but he really loves it. He's motivated to go out and find news to cover or feature stories to write, which I would never have the drive to do. Here's to Blake!
Blake went to bed at 9:30 tonight, and I am trying to overcome my desire to sleep whenever he does. I have been sleeping so much lately (atleast 9 or 10 hours a night) and all I want to do is sleep. I think I have always "needed" more sleep than most people, but not being able to DRAG myself out of bed at 7am is getting annoying. So... I'm trying a new plan. I'm going to stay up after Blake goes to bed and straighten the house, exercise (pray for determination), and do a little Spring Cleaning (more organizing than anything). It's 10:07 right now and I'm fighting weariness. I'm weak and I know it. Blake is strong. He will get 6 hours of sleep, work for 12, and then go run for an hour. How's that for determination. I'm off to attepmt #2 on my list of things to do. Here goes nothing!
By the way, Kenli is coming to visit on Saturday and staying through Wednesday! I am SOOOOO excited!

well, you have my dad's vote! My dad feels famous since he heard Blake on NPR. When my dad tells the story, he calls Blake "our Blake". funny stuff
mo,
i think blake developed that tolerance for little sleep sophomore year when he was dating you. i am a late nighter, and i hardly ever went to bed after he got back to the dorm, so in a way, you did it to yourself. but heres to blake!
