Mucho mucho!
The Secretary of Defense is briefing President Bush on Iraq. "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."
"Oh no!" exclaims the president, "That's terrible!"
His staff is stunned at this unprecedented display of emotion, watching as Bush sits, head in hands.
Finally, he looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"
Hehe..
Well... man so much has happened since the last blog.. I knew I wouldn't keep up with this thing.. but lets see what I can summarize.
I got a job!!!!! Yay :)
As most of you probably know.. I am currently working at Medical Billing Services, Inc. as a.. client rep? I don't quite know for sure.. I think it may change soon..? But its a lot of work.. I do know that! I feel like its taking me longer than it should to catch on to some of this stuff, but I do a little bit more each day so hopefully before too long I'll be more comfortable with it. Being so new a lot of times you feel like more of a burden than a help, so I just try and do what I can.. and stay out of the way when things get crazy! ;)
Florida trip!!!!
As many of you also probably know.. I went to Florida with Corey a few weeks ago.. Oh my goodness was it amazing! We stopped in Biloxi, Mississippi on the way, which was actually more sad than anything because number one; we lost everything we gambled, and number two.. it is still really torn apart from Katrina. Everybody knows how much New Orleans was affected.. but I think a lot of people forget how much it impacted other places as well. Pretty much the only thing up and running were the casinos.. which makes sense because it is the main attraction of the city, but we couldn't even find a decent place to eat outside of the casino. The beaches were trashy and there were fallen trees and buildings all over.. now that I've been to both New Orleans and Biloxi, if you ask me.. Biloxi needs more of that relief fund than New Orleans.
Anyway! On to the GOOD part.. Destin! It is **gorgeous** and I recommend it to anyone! The only let-down of the trip was the fact that the water was not as clear as normal because there was a bunch of either seaweed or algae floating around.. I don't know if it was our timing or just current conditions but it made it almost impossible to play in the water. Also, the jellies were pretty bad and Corey and I both ended up with stings at some point in the trip. His was a lot worse than mine, we got a picture but I don't know if it'll turn out. Oh and as for pictures.. we took some on his camera.. but it is never a good idea to let a boy handle the pictures afterwards.. I keep telling him that we need to put them online and get them developed but nothing has happened yet. Hopefully before too long I'll be able to tell you where to go see them :).
While we were there, we enjoyed awesome seafood (which I am slowly growing to like), deep sea fishing, beautiful white sand beaches, walking along the marina, snorkling (which I suck at), party cruising, and relaxing. It was much needed for Corey and a great last bash for me before starting work full time. And we came out of it still likeing each other so I call it a success! :) I miss it already...
Other than that.. I'm just still trying to adjust to my 7 to 4 schedule (with a little overtime here and there), while still being able to see my boyfriend and friends... it exausting!
I guess thats all for now...
