Two Live shots, One Day

Today I was graced with the joy and excitement of going on two live shots. Something that doesn’t happen very often at all. Usually a live truck can only house two people (a reporter and engineer/videographer). Well…today the circumstances dictated that the reporter travel separate from the photog. So…that meant that there was extra room for drewie in the truck! yay!

At noon I went to the courthouse and we reported on new developments in a court case (in the noon show 2 times). And then at 5 and 6 I went to the water park to report on heat-related issues. T’was a fun time as always. Getting to hang with reporters and also the joy of being in the field LIVE.

It always attracts very unusual and odd/scarey people over to the truck to harass you about something or another. So its entertaining.

Thats the report of the day really. I am off for a whole DAY for the first time in like 12 days or something ridic like that. So I am going to enjoy sleeping in tomorrow, relaxing and getting some of my “to do” list done. I travel to Athens in a week and I am very excited for that visit. Should be a fun time…and nice to get away from my boring summer life to visit my friends and back to my college life.

That’s

Summer, cont.

So since my return from vacation to Asheville, N.C. and the Biltmore Estate, I have resumed my normal, sad, boring life. I intern twice a week at the TV station, and work a few hours at my old garden center gig. Nothing special or exciting. And, as summer really begins to set in, the garden center job begins to fade and our season ends. That means we have NOTHING to do and my job is extremely boring.

Good day.

For a change, today was good. I was legitimately happy, which has been rare over the past month. And more updates about my humdrum life.
