lots to do today. dozens of phone calls to schools to get the names of students who received NSAA all-academic athlete awards for the fall sports season, more phone calls to other people for possible stories. it's tough, because with our monday and tuesday deadlines, thursday and friday become the phone call days because you can't save them until monday or tuesday because most of the time it takes two or three tries to get through to someone. plus, i had to skip to and from the office and my house because dish network was supposed to install my dish package today, but, for the second day this week did not. not happy, and we'll sort that out tomorrow.
went to doniphan tonight (45 minutes away) to shoot the school's boys and girls basketball games as well as snap a picture of the TeamMates mentoring program the school has, which was honored at halftime. also, i stopped at the assisted living home to interview the resident of the month, 86-year-old lillian. i seriously would have stayed and chatted with her for a while if i didn't have to go to the games. as i've said before.. conversation is conversation, and more times than not, these old ladies become my half-hour friends.
due to the busy night and due to my lack of tv channels (i'm really not happy with dish network), i missed the national championship game. i'm currently following the game on espn(.go).com. 24-14 florida.
also, i didn't realize that everyone had to make a profile or something to comment. that is changed. anyone can now comment. i enjoy hearing from you. please exercise your new right to comment.
