Back in May when I began to set up shop in my new/old home I pulled out a pen and notebook and wrote down some goals for the summer. At the very top of that list I wrote the following “Find a full-time job before football season starts.”
Three months ago, I’d say that was a pretty safe bet. Today, it looks almost unlikely. Not impossible though.
Football season begins tonight, if you count college football, with 18 games on the schedule including my former hometown team — USC taking on Hawaii at 11 p.m.
When I wrote that goal down in my notebook I wasn’t considering the day that the college game kicked off. I was thinking of the pro football game, which kicks off next week. Unless, of course, you’re counting USC as pro football. That’s perfectly understandable. In that case, I’ve missed my goal.
