Fellowship Home Loans is awesome.

They really are fantastic at this thing.

FellowshipHome Loans.com.

You are now listening to a super special edition of The Oddcast.

That's right, super special, and by super special, I mean it's going to be

worse than usual.

Thank you because, hey, I'm just going to do a dialogue thing here.

No, dialogue, a monologue thing here at the beginning because Sherry's not here.

We got a bunch of weird scheduling things going on, and it's going to be more

serious than usual.

We don't have the same goofier stuff in this particular one, but it's all because I have

to finish my book, and so are recording schedules off and all that sort of stuff.

I have a big book deadline hanging over me like the term papers.

You would write in high school, you know how you felt when you knew in the back of your

head you have to do that, but you're trying to have fun.

But in the back of your head, like, oh, I should be doing it.

That's what I've been doing for a long time.

So now I'm making a frantic rush at the deadline.
