Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that.

I took this week off work and was planning to do fun “stay-cation” activities, but it’s pouring (again).

Therefore, the “entirely uninteresting” news story I chose to read was weather-related. It was about how two young quarterbacks deal with practicing in the rain at the New England Patriots training camp. Spoiler alert: they are both up for the challenge!

It connects to my life in that I could probably get up off the couch and do some yoga or something, given that Zappe and Jones are out there flinging wet footballs.
