Journalist in Brooklyn, New York

My last night shift is over.

I'll miss the drunken email tips, clipping the late shows, election nights, White House news conferences, writing three-hour posts, being a generalist, having no immediate editor, gossip roundups, IM chats with Blakeley and once and present Valleywags and waking up to a day's worth of feedback in my inbox. Among other things. But maybe what I'll miss the most is the taste of my first post-shift drink at 4 or 5 in the morning. Especially on Thursdays.
