Ah-So...

Remember all the hocus-pocus superstitious voodoo hullabaloo I was conjuring a few days ago, in preparation for my job interview?

Do you think Chinese fortune cookies fall into that category?

Because if they do, I think this might be a sign:

Be prepared to accept a wondrous opportunity in the days ahead!


Of course, I'm not sure how much of my future I'll stake on a piece of paper in a stale cookie from Panda Express in the mall food court.

Just in case the message isn't in reference to what I hope it is, maybe I should go buy a PowerBall ticket and use the lucky numbers that were printed on the paper below the fortune.

I could definitely prepare to accept the title multi-millionaire as a wondrous opportunity.

I decided to reboot the blog to give myself a creative outlet, a way to sort through the confusion and frustration and attempt to make sense of it all. I have a voice, and I'm not keen to silence it anymore. Guess what? I'm back, bitches.

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...
