Hooray, a Theme

Procrastination, defined: I applied to college three days after the deadline, failed to select a major until the third "You have to pick a major now--seriously" letter, and decided against applying for jobs until after I had graduated; about eight months too late.  Perhaps the most important question anyone is ever asked, "What do you want to do with your life?" and I had no idea.  Grad school?  Only because I couldn't find a job description I both liked and was qualified for.  Forget the job itself.

As a 21-year old, I started coaching as an assistant for a group of local 11-year olds.  As is my nature, I had to be pushed and prodded into it; 21-year old Zach would have preferred anything to interacting with kids.  Four years later, and I've made it my career.  And I love it.

So, From The Deuce has a new focus; The Life and Times of a (still) rookie youth coach.  Four years in, and I have a virtually limitless amount of stories.  Enjoy.
