You'll quickly realize that EVERYTHING pays better than journalism.
Ain't that the truth. So many people were apologetic when I got laid off, and I understood where they were coming from, especially since they weren't the ones who had a hand in deciding I'd be the one let go. But I didn't think people needed to feel sorry. I knew there was a 99.9999% chance that I was going to land a job that paid at least what I was making in journalism, if not more.

Landed in sports marketing. Better (normal) hours, much more pay and perks like paid holidays off.

More importantly, have you had any good cheese lately?
I still can't tolerate to eat cheese cold, like right from the fridge, but I've come a long way. Being the cook in my marriage, I've broadened my horizons to where if I make an Italian dish, I'm not just throwing mozzarella on it. There are currently eight different types of cheese in our fridges.

Oh, so much catching up to do.

Don't shove your newfound foodie elitism in our faces here.
 
Fast food places like Taco Johns . . . I hand them my credit card (which has my name on it) for payment, they swipe it, hand it back to me, then ask "what's your name?" so they can call it out when my order is ready.

So you're telling us there's more than this

Was thinking the same thing when I was asked for a name the other day at Arbys.

Read the card, dude.

Based on your location, are you working for the AD now?
 
Under things you don't see everyday there was a Ferrari F430 convertible at KwikStar tonight. It sounded sweeeet! I thought that Boxster should be there with his namesake to really make it quite the gas station (or to play cat and mouse with it going up the interstate). Slow roll was fun taco truck tonight. I actually feel better when riding than I do when sitting probably do the 30 tomorrow night, just to see how it feels/how I do.

Weekend recap-Again I am very jealous of the trail system in the twin cities. MLB proved again that they need to take the delay decision away from the umpires for certain situations. We had cloud to ground lightning within two miles of the stadium yesterday and they continued play for at least another half hour when they finally gave in half way through a downpour. Also due to this they had to reprep the field since it had rained so much.

LittleWx wasn't interested in eating at lunch before the game so of course after a while at the game he was hungry and wanted a burger. So I go to get him something knowing it was going to cost me but ticked me off when all they had were burgers and fries for $15. I just want the damn burger! Of course he only really ate the frys and a few bites of the burger. #Parenthood

Although the car was not completely full this trip did prove to me that we do indeed need a bigger vehicle after this next kid is born. Also I can't wait to get back up there and go kayaking.
 
Is mobile crazy slow for everyone else?

Or am I just virused up from too much porn? Someone was going there so I figured I would myself.
