I started my new (and first) internship today at the Law Firm.  I’m very thrilled about this position for a few reasons.  Here they are in descending order of importance:

(+) I get to work in an office on the 51st floor of a giant building in the middle of Uptown Charlotte.  This is pleasing because not only do I get my very own desktop computer to use (my email account was already set up for me when I got there!) but I get to look down at the city when I feel like dazing off.  However, I wouldn’t like it so much if some radicals decided to revive the 9/11 thing and crash into my particular building. That would be extremely displeasing.

(+) I get to wear cute business-casual apparel and feel professionally important for a few hours a day.

(+) Good money. I can also work from home and get compensated for it.  (I have never liked that word so much before!)

(+) I get to write!  I get to write and get paid for it!  I get to write a whole freaking book and get paid for it!  That is what rocks the most.
