Dear Blogosphere, I suck.

I have been receiving emails that look a bit like this: "Dear Anthony: I miss you. It's been 9 long months since you have visited me, and I really need to feel your touch. Please update me soon. Love, Your Blog." 

Annoying, I know. I feel like the relationship with my blog is all one sided. Why do I have to do all the work? Anyway - long story short: I apologized and me and my blog made up. And voila! Here I am writing again.

So much to catch you up on since we last spoke 9 months ago. When my fiancee, Kaylin, decided to take a year off from the University of Oregon to move out to the Mile High City, we had to make a deal. She wasn't just going to move out not understanding what our future looked like (but really, does anybody know what their future looks like when they work in the business of TV or is marrying someone who is??) so I tried to meet her halfway. We had been long distance for 3/5th s of our relationship and I felt like she deserved to know where this was going.


Boom. We shook hands - and the deal was made. After her year out in CO was up, we would be packing our bags and moving back to Oregon. Now when someone like me is looking for a job - we'll take any TV job. Any time, anywhere. Understanding the need for Kaylin to finish school (and for us to not be apart) I don't get to just follow the opportunities - I have to make my opportunities. My lucky destination is Eugene, Oregon. Market size 122 and approximately 4 months to land a job from 1200 miles away. I don't speak a second language, but if I did... I'd want to learn all the swear words.

These past few months have been dedicated to dressing sharp, speaking smart, and networking to no end. I'll leave off there and when we pick up next: I'll give you the rest of the details on my journey. Buckle. Up.
