Friday Five
August 10, 2007 | by brett | Permalink
For those of you who are like me, who often lose track of what day it is, I got news for you…it’s Friday. And when it’s Friday on this blog, you have to read about the five things I’m excited about.
Love it or hate it, here are the five things I’m excited about today.
5) You know you’re old when you’re excited about getting your oil changed. But I am. We’ve traveled over 5,000 miles in our RV, and I’m excited about getting the oil changed because I don’t want that thing breaking down on us.
4) I’m still excited about the “blockbuster” scheduling deal we pulled off earlier in the week. For those of you who didn’t read about it in the news, we traded Lawrence, Kansas for Mount Rushmore and Minneapolis. Check out our tour schedule to see the implications.
3) My mom and little sister are coming to town tomorrow, and I’m excited about having them. I’m especially enthusiastic about the trip because my little sis is looking for a job right now, and I’m going to spend the weekend trying to recruit her onto the PTP team.
So you might see another Farmiloe in the mix soon.
2) Yesterday I found a great coffee shop to work in. I love to work in coffee shops because there is so much caffeinated energy I can feed off of without ever taking a sip of espresso. I’m excited about making that place my home base.
1) The number one thing I’m excited about is that I get to interviewer a rapper later today. Noah Pollock lined up an interview with Living Legend member “Lucky I Am” while the group is in Arizona on their “Paid Dues” tour. It’s cool to think that this Friday I’m interviewing a rapper, and next Friday I’ll be interviewing the CEO of MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Damn I love diversity.
What are you excited about today?

I’m excited about the next leg of your tour as well. I hope your sister goes along for the ride. I happen to know that she is as talented and creative as her big brother. What a great team you two would make. What’s the name of your coffee shop?

I could give you a few more “you know you are old whens”
1) Your son is approaching you in height
2) Just eating out is a cool anniversary night
3) You will be 64 when your youngest daughter turns 20
I like coffee shops and Irish pubs (as long as they have internet connection). I find both energizing and you can feel a tangible entrepreneurial spirit in the room. It gets my creative juices flowing. Not sure how the coffee or the beer play into that. 
Love reading your blog, Brett. It is inspirational.
