Dream Job #5

I have decided to do another week long theme for my blog. This week's theme is "Dream Jobs." Each day I shall discuss one of my top five dream jobs here in my blog. Now away we go!

Private Detective

Yep, I want this job bad. The problem is that I am not willing to put in the time to achieve this position. I also do not care for the late nights, and oh yea the DANGER! But when I picture myself having this job it is so awesome.

I wear a trench coat, I drink tons of coffee and I have a day old pizza in the box sitting on my desk. Then someone walks into my office and asks for assistance. While investigating said case, it turns out to be an X-File, and I do not get eaten by the werewolf in the end.

Sounds neat, huh? It is. But sadly I know it's fiction. I know that even if I did get a case that I'd be caught by whoever I had to spy on and be beaten, stabbed or shot. Surprisingly enough, I am a fan of any of those.

But thanks to the great show Bored to Death, I can see a writer who moonlights as a part time investigator with no credentials. Boy I wish I thought up that plot for a show. Thanks Jonathon Ames for preventing me from following through with a kooky dream job that will only get me killed.
