A Few Highlights(?)
I know it's been a really long time since I've updated, but as usual, things have been CRAZY.A few highlights(?) for those who care... I've been working for State Farm for seven months and I've had my apartment(and been what I like to define as a real grown up)since January. I got into my first car accident(with me driving),some 400 year old lady rear ended me then drove away...lovely. And now it's my favorite time of year...hurricane season. Yeah. And I found out, being the important insurance professional I am, that if there IS a hurricane, I am expected to be at work no more than two hours after it passes.***Mini-Rant*** But Josie, you ask, what about the closed roads, down power lines, and flooded streets? Oh, don't worry about me, I now have super powers... I will have... a BADGE. A badge that apparently makes me SOOO important that I must risk my life to go to work. Uhhhh... When did I become a fire fighter or police officer, and come to think of it, shouldn't I AT LEAST get a siren, I mean, mortal peril here, people!
In other work related news, on Friday my coworker Paul didn't show up, and it turns out that something(we still don't know what)made him go from "normal" to "BAT SHIT CRAZY" over night. Literally. And it is DEFINATLY NOT drugs. Paul is a straight arrow. He's in the hospital now and he's doing better, much better, he's not so crazy anymore. The scary thing: for 24 hours we thought that it may have been a communicable disease(leading theory now is that his wife poisoned him). I, being the bright one that I am, decided I wanted to smoke a little to chill from my long, WEIRD day. What happens? Paranoia sinks in and I'm so worried that if I go to bed I'M gonna wake up bat shit crazy(which is a little crazy itself;-)that I finally pass out at like 4AM. Once again, lovely.
But I guess this is the kinda stuff being a "grown up" is made of.
