To a new Tumblr
Just an FYI:
- You will know who people are referring to when you see the intials JA.
- Lipdubs are for breakfast.
- Obama’s birthday is everyone’s birthday.
- At least one TV finale or movie will be spoiled for you.
- You will be inspired daily by quotes on your dashboard that will temporarily make you feel like you should seize the day. Then you will go back to work.
- Cats are for Saturday.
- Etsy.
- TopherChris owns the internet.
- Food posts are very popular — even posts about throwing up food, as was seen in the bulemic Intervention episode.
- The W. in Peter W. Knox will forever remain a mystery.
- Seth Rogan posts are just as good as food posts.
- Post pictures of yourself on Wednesday. Make sure they are as original and spontaneous and posed as everyone else’s is. It is recommended that you use a mac’s photobooth for this.

Phew.
Today was insane.
I start work ordinary enough and after the assignment meeting, I get going on the Georgia-Russia story. An hour later, I’m told another producer is handling that, so I’m working on the Opening Ceremonies “faking-it” controversy.
Around 11:30, I’m told someone is waiting for me in the reception area. Oh yeah, its the guys responsible for this and this. You may have heard of them. Anyway, we’ve been e-mailing each other since Season 3 of The Hills (they are big fans), also I’ve been trying to do this whole blog-to-book story for a LONG TIME, so I took advantage, grabbed a camera, mic’ed up and did the interview.
Come back to my desk, find out I’m back on the Georgia-Russia story. There are a little more than two hours before we go to air, and its still the top story. After organizing myself, getting a voice track in less than an hour before air, the story is ready to go into the show in literally, the last seconds.
Needless to say, I missed lunch and didn’t get to pee until after the story aired because I had to see the story on air to make sure it actually made it there.
It’s over now.
Phew.
