The Professional Buttwiper: Independance Day!

My roommates are decked out in their patriotic attire and flare and working while I have been taking another sick day to get well from yet a new illness. My bosses made me go to the doctor yesterday to get tested for Type A flu and told me I was not to work today. I'm enjoying my day off. I slept in late, showered, studied, called some friends, and now I get to blog! Kelli told me I haven't been nearly witty enough. I blame it on the lack of energy I've had lately.
Friday the interns and our bosses went into the thriving town of Jasper for a cookout and the Jasper Fair. I have never seen so many: mullets, mohawks, pregnant or teen mothers, morbidly obese, rebel flag wearing people gathered in such a small vicinity. We were given 15$ each to either get a pass for unlimited rides or get 15$ of fresh squeezed lemonade and funnel cakes. I decided to pocket the money due to the fact that I had a fever(and deathly ill) and was not sure I trusted the rusty metal light up death traps they assemble in 2 days that they call "RIDES". The pictures speak for themselves! I was kind of "mom" for the night. I stood by the gates to each ride holding multiple purses and cameras. After about two hours I had enough of that so my friend Amber and I went and sat in the grass to wait for our friends. We were having good conversation until my runny nose interrupted. *This could be gross to you! It turned into a faucet! Here is how our conversation proceeded... Me: Did you see that?(as I wiped the clear fluid that was dripping down my face) Amber: (without even looking at me) No, but Santa did! (as a large man with a bald head and a white beard down his chest walked by) We laughed together then there was this pause as I was thinking. Me: Yeah, because Santa is always watching! He watches to see who's naught or nice. (trying to sing the song) Amber: Uh..? Then there was a break of uncontrolable laughter and crying!
