Weather in the Northeast U.S.

Today, on January 31, 2012 at 2.50 p.m. I'm sitting outdoors, soaking in the sun, on this 64-degree-F day.

Unexpected and unbelievably welcome.

Monday Morning Ponderings

I seem to be going through some sort of a quarter-life crisis. A little late in the game for that, but here I am, lost and unsure of what I’d like to do with my professional life. Journalism is starting to lose its charm, and no other career has stepped in as a viable alternative. Naturally this is all a bit disconcerting. I’ve never questioned my career choice and I’m not at all amused that I have to start at this age. All I can do now is hope that this is just a phase that will quickly be replaced by a more appropriate (and seemingly more manageable) mid-life crisis.
