You’ll have to keep this a secret because I’m supposed to act like I’ve been there before — but tomorrow I’m going to cover my first MLB game. I’ve thought a lot about what to say to you guys in advance of this moment. Should I tell you how much …
I am in USA Today. Yes, yes, me! I wrote a thing and USA Today picked it up and you should read that thing. It is about the date that James Corden set me up on — a video which you can watch (if you haven’t already) on the USA …
It’s hard to believe but we’re almost at the end of it: I’m almost a Master. I just have a few assignments left (not to mention that big ugly thesis which I’m still chipping away at) and then I’ll be what they call accomplished. Or something like that. Where I …
