Today sucked. Mostly in the fact that I messed up in an article that was published last week.

I said that someone was the owner of a local establishment when he was, in fact, not. His brother was.

When I called the place for the interview, I asked for an owner. The response was, "Sure, he's right here, his name is Joe," and the phone was passed on. The guy had the same last name of the establishment I was calling, so I put two and two together and there you have it. A mistake.

I should've double-checked. I almost always do. That time I assumed incorrectly and it sucks, because someone sent an e-mail in to the paper about it.

I hate mistakes, no matter how minor. I remedied it best I could. In fact, the actual owner kind of laughed it off and didn't care. But, we are running a retraction.

Blegh. This week is off to a shitty start.

At least I get to train again tomorrow. I don't so much mind that.
