Well, for the past day and a half I have been againizing over a job offer I got. I have been working at the bank and I like it. Well, a newspaper about a half hour north of where I live offered me a job as a sports writer. It paid a little bit more, but that cost would be eaten up by gas.
Well, basically I was weighing the two jobs. And to make a long agonizing decision short, I chose the bank. The reasons why: the ability to have a normal family and social life, the hours are better, the ability to freelance for a much better known paper and the room for upward advancement.
Sure, I know it's passing up a journalism job, but I had to do what I felt was best. It was a really hard decision, but I think I made the right one. But I was pulling my hair out. Why couldn't all of this come much earlier?
And again, Happy Birthday to Gwyn, who turns 1 today. Unbelievable!
