someone in the office must have been telling lies and somehow i ended up gaining the title "associate editor of billboard.com" or "associate online editor of billboard magazine." either way, it means better work and pay. i'm very excited to be a part of the billboard.com team. i'll be writing and helping to maintain the website.

Good on ya, princess! A working journalist...something I could never cut it as, though I got a shiny degree on my wall documenting my credentials.

That is awesome...today billboard...tomorrow? (What's yr. ultimate job in this field?)

Congrats!

Not only can you go on from here and be massively successful in your chosen field, I can also feel less guilty about only paying about 30% of that restaurant bill.

Congratulations! I'm sure that it's well deserved and not the last rung on the ascension ladder.

Rock on, girly. I strongly suspect you deserved this, though I can't back it up with anything.

Congrats. I wasn't even aware that you worked for Billboard. My Uncle (now deceased) was a big shot there for years and years.

Is this the place that I add my congrats? We all know you deserve it. But what many here will not know is how much you have worked for it... I remember you and your high school journalism days little missy... Seriously, kudos to you my dear, it couldn't have happened to a nicer princess/empress.
