So I haven't posted much in the last two months since I got back from Colorado and started going back to school. The reason why is I finally got a job where I can get all of the love and respect I truly deserve.

I.....am....AN INTERN!

*fireworks go off, volcanoes erupt, children cry*

Yeah, I've been interning at the Philadelphia City Paper, which is one of the city's free weeklies. Sort of the Philadelphia version of the Village Voice. Most major cities have one or two. I'm in the Listings section, meaning I have to spend 15 hours a week sorting through folders of press releases and copying the information over while editting out the PR crap.

It's annoying, tiring and grating. *However* the flip side is that I get to have articles by me published each week. You betcha! Weekly articles from yours truly. I look at this as a big step along my way to becoming a journalist. If you're interested in reading my articles, you can find them here, but I must warn you. They're probably of zero interest to you. They're mainly about different food events going on in Philly (my column's name is "What's Cooking". Haw!)

I really enjoy it here despite what I said about Listings earlier. Other than that and the fact that my computer is a six year old Macintosh, everything's great. The office is in one of the nicest parts of the city. Everyone on the staff is really nice and accessible. I couldn't ask for a better internship.

Other than that, just trying to stay afloat as my senior year of undergrad school winds down to graduation. Did I miss anythign big?

The MoFo Singing Caravan. We were HUGE. Then Craig had to go and say we were bigger than Jesus. And it all came crashing down. ;_;

Psx, we were bigger than Jesus, remember, we beat the second coming in the ratings 2 to 1.

Unfortunatly that dude had some heavy sponsors *scratches salt out of fur*

Yeah......we just couldn't get Jesus' dad on our side. I even offered him some authentic, non-stoe-bought alfredo and it didn't work. >:/

And then there was that bad publicity when SOMEONE picked that bar fight with Moses

He marched around the city for a while with a bunch of other guys for several days, playing a bunch of horns. Then they shouted real loud, waking everyone up.

Then the entire city fell down.

My Bass solo was totally kickass, too.
Pity about the whole "Harley being crushed by a lighting rig" thing, though.

I told you, it was an accident. It's not my fault the rig wasn't bolted in or safety chained. Are you suggesting I let go of the rope it was attached to on purpose? Why do you keep bringing this up?! Stop accusing me!

And whatever anyone says, the subsequent biscuit shortage and resulting economic collapse was a complete coincidence from which I did not profit in any way.
