I didn’t want to change anything in this post though, so just keep in mind that it was intended for yesterday when you read it).

Internship Duties and New Perspectives
“So what have you been doing this summer?” I get this question every year from friends and relatives, and usually, my response is a lazy “Nothing really. I’ve pretty much just been reading and relaxing.” This summer as you readers know has been different, as I had finally accrued enough wisdom to be eligibleContinueContinue reading “Internship Duties and New Perspectives”
Internship Application Saga (part 2)
(Well readers, finishing up part 2 ended up taking longer than I anticipated, but at last, here it is. Read part 1, the entry below this one for the beginning of the story). So OnMilwaukee.com sort of fell through, but I didn’t panic too much yet because I hadn’t heard back from Reader’s Digest.ContinueContinue reading “Internship Application Saga (part 2)”
Internship Application Saga (part 1)
Well readers, between family commitments and the typical summer heat and humidity that always makes me feel sluggish and uninspired, I haven’t been able to write the internship update I promised over a month ago.

The Best of Times and the Worst of Times
Well readers, I haven’t written as much as I would like in this journal, and when I have written, the entries have often been tailored to Lj Idol topics and blog carnivals.

The name of the blog that hostsContinueContinue reading “Blogging Against Disablism Day 2011: Raising Awareness about an Inaccessible Information Age”
“I Want to Get a Guide Dog Just for the Hell of It”
Well readers, it’s that time again! It is time for another Assistance Dog Blog Carnival, which you can participate in if you would like by going to http://thetroubleisme.wordpress.com/2011/03/15/announcing-the-3rd-assistance-dog-blog-carnival. The theme this time is “reactions”. I know that writing about the public’s reaction when they see a service dog was discouraged, and understandably so sinceContinueContinue reading ““I Want to Get a Guide Dog Just for the Hell of It””
Another Paper Worth Preserving
Hi readers. Before I get to the subject of my entry, I should mention that the last entry I wrote about milestones for a Disability Blog Carnival is a carnival you can participate in as well. I apologize for not posting the link to participate in this carnival sooner. Part of the reason was thatContinueContinue reading “Another Paper Worth Preserving”
