Not to brag, but my job is pretty great. I’ve gotten to do so many interesting and fun things for stories — and also a few not-so-fun things. For no good reason, here is a list of the best and the worst.
Best
- Play a Stradivarius violin
- “Perform” in the Washington Ballet’s “Nutcracker”
- Feed a red panda
- Spear a lionfish in Belize
- Try out to be a racing president
Worst
- Chat up injured people in ERs around D.C.
- Spent 24 hours in Spa World
- Construct an enormous hamster wheel, but for cats.
I read the article: How Washington’s estate downplays the story of his slaves….
Of course, not long after I wrote this, my entire newspaper went under! That’s OK though. I’m taking it as an omen that it’s time to finally finish my book.
