Phantom Journalist
Welcome to 2010. Two thousand and ten. Crazy. Remember when Y2K was a big deal? I hardly do, I was too young to really care other than I seem to remember everybody flipping out about the world coming to an end. All I can clearly remember is getting rear-ended on our way back from Discovery Zone in Kelsea's parents car after her birthday party. Waaaayyy more noteworthy than the world ending. But alas, here we are. Ten years later. And, things seem to be going smoothly for the most part.
I have been Mrs. Alexander for a little over a year now. So I guess I'm no longer embarrassed about my last journal entry raving about my almost engagement. It went through, and I couldn't be happier.
Lets see... a little history;
I quit IIL shortly after getting married and moving out of town, so that was in approximately February of 2009. I then tried my hand at waitressing at a german cuisine fine dining restaurant. Made great tips, had nice times, worked with friends. Worked there on weekends until June of 2009 when the restaurant closed for business. Boo. Then I spent the next month unemployed and not entirely concerned about it. My biggest goal was to begin school full-time (for I had been taking college classes part time through the duration) and think more seriously in that direction, when Adam and I discussed our desire to buy a house. Well, that changes everything. Shortly after that discussion I decided to dust of my resume and get to work. Applied a few places, no bites, not even a damn nibble. What the hell is wrong with these people, I ask? Then I go ONLINE of all resources, and find that the Sunshine Eye Clinic is hiring for receptionist position. Perfect. I prepare my resume, get dressed and go in. I picked up an application, apply for receptionist position, get an interview five minutes after submitting resume, and go home with happy thoughts. Roughly five days later I get a call back for a second interview. Yahoo. I go in and am firstly told that the receptionist position has been filled. Secondly I am told that they would like to consider me for the position of doctor's assistant, and am I interested? Well, hell yes. Upon further review (and third interview with the doctor) we all agree on terms and I begin my new adventure on August 3, 2009.
To present time, I am enjoying the hell out of my current position. I have future plans to attend the Heart's of America seminars the weekend of Valentine's Day in Kansas City.
Well, I guess that about sums it up. I'll catch up to you probably in another couple years.
