Dear Natalie, Sorry I was late getting home.

My promotion to News Editor was announced at the paper Tuesday. This new position comes with a number of challenges and some far-reaching expectations, but the people I will be working with have tons of talent and plenty of desire. I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do together as we set off toward meeting and then exceeding these expectations.

Besides the new responsibilities and role, this promotion will also mean big changes in my hours and days -- changes that will mean Natalie and I will have to work harder to make time for each other. There wasn't a lot of time before the announcement for Natalie and I to work out the personal details, but everything happens for a reason, right? Anyway, I'm sure we'll figure it out -- if we can just find the time to sit together and do it.

DISCLAIMER: This blog is not about my work, work situations, company policies, trade secrets, corporate structure, etc. This blog is about my life and work just happens to be a big part of my life.

I know you are sorry. I will learn to not be afraid and I will start reading as my therapy.
XOXO

You do have a lot of talented people working for you. But darn it, when I didn’t write that portion of the story, I don’t have to get the dirty look. I simply didn’t write that portion of the story. OK, I’m now going to sleep.

I love all you guys -- even JJ. Wait I take that back. I don’t really love the kid in the cowboy hat who goes dancing in bars. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8GvHaK8U8I
He’s too weird to tolerate.
