It's official...

Yes, that's right. I got the job in Bend!!

Yay, me!!

So, the skinny is this... It's as a marketing coordinator (with a heavy emphasis on graphic design) for Pronghorn Resort in Bend. The job pays WAY more than I am making at the paper (shocking, I know) and also has a very nice benefits package.

I start August 1st. Holy crap... that is (once again) going to be a very quick move.

I would like to march into my boss' office and tell her to shove everything up her butt, but in the interest of not burning bridges (again, shocking, I know) I will do what is right and give my 2 week notice. FYI, I am practically tap-dancing at the thought...

Several people mentioned they would like to be a fly on the wall when that conversation goes down so I will make sure and report back any gory details...

In other news:

I have that freelance photography gig tonight, which I'm very excited about. It's taking photos of the ONPA awards ceremony being held here in Lincoln City.

Also, I have been working on a book cover for a good friend of mine. And last night I finally got the finished product (mostly) done...

Just so you can really appreciate my brilliance, here are the 2 photos that I started out with...



And here's the final cover...


Pretty cool, eh? I'll let you know when the book is available online.

And now, it's time to start composing my "farewell to thee" letter. This is going to be fun...
