Just Bethany :)

Okay, well the time has finally arrived that I can reveal my BIG news!!  I am now a writer on the best hockey blog on the web (as ranked by USA Hockey Magazine!), and am their Blue Jackets expert!

This is huge for me in sooooo many ways.

1. It allows me to be a part of a huge site, and get a feel for being a member of the media.
2. It allows me access.  I am credentialed now.  I have access to players, coaches, and well, everything really.  HUGE.
3. It’s going to allow me to expand my horizons and put myself out there, and start making connections which is something you have to do in the journalism business.

I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of Kukla’s and can’t wait for the season to start, officially…you know so I can have something to REALLY write about.

Here is my new site!!!

Another one of my best friends had a baby yesterday.  Emily gave birth to little Zoe, who was nearly two weeks early.  Zoe weighed in at 5 lbs 14 oz and is 18 inches long.  She is gorgeous!!  Congrats Em and Andy!!

As the majority of you know, I hate politics.  It’s just the way it is.  In my opinion all politicians are lying bastards.  Each and every single one of the candidates are making promises they won’t keep.  We know this going in.  Anyway, I try to stay up on what is going on, just so I can make an informed decision when it is time for me to vote.  Although, my mind is made up, and if you look through some of my older posts you will see who I am NOT voting for.  Anyway, I was doing my daily blog reading, thanks to Google Reader (and seriously if you haven’t tried it out, it is amazing, and such a time saver).  Well, one of my favorite reads is Academhack.  He is currently teaching a class on Digital Politics.  So he posted up some links.  I was clicking through them, and I found the funniest blog ever.  It is a blog where fictional characters, like Mojo-Jojo, Batman, and Elmer Fudd talk about politics.  I can’t get enough of it.  You should definitely check it out!  Here is the link:

Brooklyn June Porter

She is home now, and pretty happy about it…as you can see by this photo.

Me:  How do you pronounce the capital of Kentucky…is it Louis-ville or Louie-ville?

Jen:  ……<thinking>…..Lexington….

Me:  HAHAHA FRANKFORT!!!

She still doesn’t have a name.
