So, Brian and I are moving, in May, to San Francisco. 

Because on May 21 - one week after graduation - I start an internship with McSweeney’s. More specifically, with their magazine The Believer, as a fact checker (and as whatever else they need / they tell me to be). 

It is, as of today, an indefinite (and definitely unpaid) opportunity, which revoles around my own definition of truth and its place in creative nonfiction. And that is, as you guys know, what I’ve been obsessed with for the better part of my time in Iowa, so. I’m excited, to put it mildly. 

(Also, nervous. Nervous and nervous and nervous and excited and excited and nervous.)
