If I Had a Column

Watching Marley and Me for the first time over the past few days I was inspired. It, unfortunately, didn’t pertain to seeing my “worst dog ever” in a new light but rather myself in a new light.

I always knew I didn’t want to be a reporter. Asking intrusive questions to complete strangers and writing an article complying to today’s newspapers standards just isn’t for me. Blogging, on the other hand, is and blogging is very much like a weekly (or regular) column.

Hearing and watching John struggle with taking the job as a columnist and then finding one as a reporter only to find himself missing the column was like my own revelation.

So since I don’t have a job with the local newspaper but have a website I decided to start my own column for therapy, for comic relief and for you.

Enjoy and, as always, thanks for reading,
