Relay for life!!!!
So, the Relay for life is this weekend and I am very excited about it! We are having a dunking booth and were dunking our Dentists that I work for! Sooooooo excited about that! I'm going to be broke dunking them! I love the Relay weekend! This event means so much to such a little town! Garner has the biggest and most profitable Relay in all of North Carolina! A fact that I am VERY proud of in case you can't tell! So, anyway if any of you guys aren't doing anything Friday night, come out and see me, Dunk a dentist, raise some money for the American Cancer Society, and listen to some good music. My friend Josh Pepper will be performing from 7:30 to 8:15. It's rumored that he may even get me up there with him! The festivities kick off at 6:00 Friday night and go until Saturday morning at 10:30! Come out, it would mean alot to me!

What happend to the time when people cared about people?
What ever happend to the day when people cared about other people. I don't just mean your friends and family. I am talking about people you see around your hometown, at the grocery store, the Dr.'s office. Those people. Last week one of Dr's Father-in-lay passed away. We closed the Garner office in the afternoon, drove an hour to Wade to go to the funeral. That Dr. was very touched that we had all taken time to come all that way to show how much we cared. That is the way I was raised. Well, today we all got our pay stubs and we get a time sheet in every pay stub. The office manager(who works in our Raleigh office) docked all of us a half a day for going to the funeral. In the past, when someone had an immediate family member die, the office closed and you went to the funeral. If you didn't go to the funeral, you got docked time off. I mean, it's only $50 or $60 freakin dollars! If the other Dr.'s are hurtin that bad for a measley $50 I will gladly give it to them, but mostly I am hurt that they are so self-absorbed that all they can think about is the money and not see the human side to what we did. It makes me question is this the type of Dr.'s I want to work for. I took a job in Garner because no matter what people may say about the town, we are a close knit group. Garner is just a simple town where people like you not by the car you drive or the house you live in, but by how you treat someone. Those are the things that matter. I know I am on my soap box again, but there is seriously something wrong with the way Americans are being trained to think! When you work for someone who lives in a multi-million dollar house, has two or three other houses in other states, goes off three or four times a year on luxury vacations, and gives you hard time for a measley three hours or $50 dollars it just puts it all into perspective. Seriously quit spending so much time energy trying to make a million dollars and spend more time on yourself and I promise you will be happier!!!! Okay, I'll stop bitching now!

Go Heels!

So, Monday night was a crazy one! Bart, me and some friends went to Chapel Hill to watch the UNC game! It was a great game!!!!! We ended up at Bub's which is ab ar on Rosemary street! We had a blast there. You know me, I met a lot of people that I didn't know. Got a little Crazy! Then when UNC won, we all headed for Franklin Street! That's when things turned really crazy. The crowd was okay at first and we were down by the bonfire, having a good time, taking pics, then all of a sudden it was like all these people were trying to bum rush us to get to the fire. Well, I got seperated from my group, some guy beside started having a panic attack and swung his arm, hit me in the eyes and I have a black eye! Eventually I found my people but for a second it was really scary! All in all, I will never take my butt out to Franklin Street after something like that again, but I'm glad that I did it. Besides, taking a black eye for the team should make the #1 Fan of the tarheels right??? At least now I have bragging rights!
