So I Got a Job...

It would figure, wouldn't it? Right after I wrote that last blog post, I managed to get a summer job at a wild birds store - thus once again thwarting my efforts to write more consistently on here. Among my responsibilities at work has been writing things like this, this and this - admittedly not the most exciting thing in the world for someone who wants to go into sports journalism, but at the end of the day, there are 3 things I remind myself of:

1) It's 3 minutes away.

2) The people are really nice.

3) It pays.

Those make it all worth it. Plus, if nothing else, I've learned that I can still write reasonably well about things that I don't know much about. Just think of how well I'll be able to write about sports now, knowing that I've aced the test of writing about bird feeders. Anyway, I'm finishing up there next week, and then it's off to Phoenix and ASU for grad school on the 14th. Little daunting, but I'm up for a challenge. In the meantime...hopefully I'll be able to write more frequently on here? Sweeping promises and big plans haven't really worked out before, so I'll just cross my fingers this time and hope for more time and ideas.
