Sasha Fan Spotlight on Anji

My fangirl status has just reached another high today as I am in the Fan Spotlight on the official site of Laker guard, Sasha Vujacic. OMG! As of today, when you visit vujacic.net, you will see my little face TWICE on his homepage; once for said spotlight, and the other for the Ask Sasha A Question area, which I posted about previously. This is actually my third time making the news on Sasha’s site. I was also one of 3 “Vujachicks” features in an article called Sasha Spirit showing various fans holding up signs for Sasha at Lakers games. Please read my Sasha Vujacic Fan Spotlight interview and feel free to leave a comment there on the site.

Dave’s Lounge Chillcast Sneak Attack

I just put together special half hour “Chillcast Sneak Attack” episode of the popular weekly downtempo podcast, Dave’s Lounge. I thought it would be fun to surprise the very busy Dave this week with a few underground hits from some of the music sites we used to haunt back in the infancy of the online music community. This 6 song episode includes tracks by Captain Ginger, Elekoustic, EchoVent, Misnomer, Sudaka, and Bitstream Dream.

This is the 2nd time I have guest hosted the show. My first time was back in 2006 for Dave’s Lounge #46. In return, Dave guest hosted Chillcast #13.

Anji’s Got the Sasha Spirit

OK you loyal fans know that I’ve been nursing a crush on Laker cutie, Sasha Vujacic, ever since I met him at a John Mayer concert this past December. I even wrote a blog post about the “Machine” sign that I brought to Staples Center for his season high game in January. Well, my enthusiam has not gone unnoticed by his webteam, who included me in a featured story this week called Sasha Spirit. I am at once thrilled and abashed…

And this comes just 2 weeks after my girly Sasha question appeared in the Lakers Mailbag on the official Lakers site!
