Either this is decent advice or this person is warning you of a possible serial killer in your apartment.

Uh. I’m going to go out on a limb and say this is not the world’s best metric.

I absolutely love this project. My advice? If you have a kickass mentor or boss, take in absolutely everything you can from her.

From “Reaching for the Moon,” National Geographic, February, 1959.

Messages to the moon are scrawled on the nose of Pioneer II. This man, standing on the gantry’s top stage some two hours before firing, writes his name on the protective shroud at the tip of the 88-foot rocket. Others scribbled “Good luck,” and “Hello, moon.”

Accepted a temporary summer-only gig at National Geographic Magazine. I’ll be editing and writing for their magazine and website — and helping with some digital projects. The job runs from May to August and I’ll be splitting my time between Philadelphia and Washington D.C. I’m really excited to try a) a different medium b) a new publication and c) a new city (temporarily.)

This is a living arrangement where you definitely want to be in the top drawer.
