I am a backpack journalist working in a small town in Michigan. Many photos posted here have been taken as part of my job and are therefore property of my employer. It should be clear which fall into that category. All opinions are my own.

In order:
- Miss eight consecutive phone calls from my editor re: breaking news because phone was left on vibrate
- Husband says, “What’s the big deal? Does editor think this is some kind of internet news show?”
- Think to self, “WHAT IS IT YOU THINK I DO FOR A LIVING?”
- Husband says, “Oh that? Yeah, I saw it on the 11 o’clock news last night. You were asleep.”
- Go to work, get yelled for missing above mentioned phone calls
- Drive to next county not find appropriate court files re: breaking new
- Eat McDonalds, feel shamed
- Drive 70 miles to obtain court files in another county, read horrible things
- Drive 20 miles, get lost, speed through a town, get a ticket (second in three months!)
- Drive 50 miles back to another court to find out arraignment is a no-go
- Drive back to newsroom, talk to ornery detective, file story
- Get groceries, use the broken self-scan
- Make dinner, cut thumb through the nail
- Blog it
