what urself! Jessie's getting shitty!
a couple weeks ago a group of us went out to the bar. jon and I, a coworker Heather, and a few of her friends.
after several drinks we returned to Heather's to which she decided to play Cranium-which I love! she automatically put jon and I on a team together---and wise jessie didn't kick in....a few drinks and she was taking the night off.
[well the Professionals as a whole can get kinda competitive. we have our over aggressive people *ahem* *ryn* (who through manipulation made JGoodin get totally out of control every time, which was a combo of funny/fuckin ridiculous), anyway when we play games we like to play to win-cuz that's the whole point! DUH!! we're not horrible losers-we just play like we're supposed to.]
back to the story- playing cranium and it was my turn and I had to draw with my eyes closed something....jon didn't guess a single thing-nothing! so when the other team got it- I asked "why didn't you guess anything?" he just said I was a bad drawer- EYES CLOSED! hello! so I told him "we can't win if you don't at least PARTICIPATE!" and yes I spiked a pencil on the carpet. now come on, this isn't out of control. ok maybe a tad but fuck-I've gotten ten times worse....and several of our groupies have gotten worse-chairs thrown etc.
so it's his turn to make something outta playdough and I made up my mind that I'm not going to guess. I'm just going to sit there and stare so he sees what I mean. well at the last second-I couldn't help it my PRIDE of not losing took over- "JAIL" I yelled out-which heather agrees he did a HORRID job of molding his dough but no one is a pro sculturer/drawer/hummer but the deal is you guess to get somewhere!
so Jon saw my worst 2 characterstics and them fighting it out: Pride vs Stubbornness. ya know what?- they may be negative things I have, but I'm quite proud of my faults and too stubborn to change them cuz I'd rather be these two then weak and a pushover. at least he saw them and understood that because of their nature-they will never dissolve. he can like it or leave it.
on the other hand this story was told by Heather at work several times. this action of me spiking a pencil sounds so out of my character at work that some didn't believe it. then they decided that as charge nurse during staffing meetings I should spike my pencil if we're getting screwed....that it would be effective. I agree although-my guess is one spike and there's no chance of getting nite supervisor.
did I update u on that? nite supervisor interview is monday 6pm. there's three of us applying and I figured I won't get the job but may as well roll the dice at the high rollers table-pretending I belong.
another update: totally random. talked with John Goodin for the 1st time in months last week. he's living with someone. so I'm dating a Jon and he's living with a Jessie.........weird as hell!
