Christa's final Divaville was weird at first, then lots of fun, then sad at the end. We both literally wiped away tears so we could take a picture at the end of the show.
It was clear that her regular listeners were feeling sad too. We got tons of requests including many for songs that were fitting for the occasion, like "We'll Meet Again" and "Go Out West." Here's the playlist.
Over the past couple of weeks we got into a good rhythm, with one of us managing the board and answering the phone, and the other handling the computer, updating the playlister and looking up songs. It's going to be hard to go back to doing it all by myself! Though I'm sure I won't get nearly so many calls, which will make it much less hectic.
It's kind of hard to believe that Divaville, the show I've been guest hosting for years and have been a loyal listener for even more years, is now my responsibility. I'm sad and nervous and excited all at the same time. It's really weird.
But Christa's Divaville isn't over. She's talking about doing the show either online or at a community station in Portland. I hope she's able to get that going soon. I want to listen to it! It will be like Divaville West and Divaville (Lounge) East.
