Going to cover a dog show sounds like any random assignment for your average reporter on a Saturday. 

For me, however, it’s a different story. 

This morning I was given an assignment to drive to a home in Eastern Henrico County where police had surrounded the house and detained a 16-year-old girl with the EXACT same name as a 19-year-old wanted along with two other males in the murder of a teenager in Powhatan County. Police say they used an AK-47 to shoot the victim and another victim who was injured.

Last Thursday I went to go see the latest M. Night Shyamalan movie The Happening.

The Richmond Vegetarian Festival ‘08 (http://www.veggiefest.org/) was this weekend. I had been to it a few years ago, and enjoyed the experience. So when I saw an ad for the Veggiefest in the RTD this year, I invited a few friends to go.

I work Sundays. I don’t pack a lunch on Sunday because I’m too tired on Saturday evenings to take the time to pack my lunch. Let’s be serious, I’m hanging out with my new friends and don’t want to be bothered with it. So, I planned on buying my lunch today.
Justin, another intern, came to the office to have lunch with me and we decided to go out and grab something. This was a bad idea.
