The Adventures of the Unemployed

Once upon a time (naturally), a young, single adult, named Ashley, quit her job. This was not any ordinary job she quit and this was not any ordinary reason why she decided to quit as well. Her job was to sell the devils brew disguised and advertised as a harmless stimulant called coffee. Ashley knew it was wrong to sell coffee and finally quit. But that's not the only reason why she quit. No, she quit mainly because she had a duty to fulfill. A divine calling to Boise, Idaho where the people of Idaho needed to hear her voice declaring truth and righteousness.

But she still has about a month to do that. In the meantime, she has to find ways to entertain herself and find new ways to get out and about to take care of the things needed for her marvelous journey. So far, her entertainment has consisted of the following: babysitting, watching t.v. (particularily Dirty Jobs), learning to throw a football (thanks Sol), and reading her scriptures. Ashley looks forward to phone calls from the doctor, a letter from the DMV, hanging out with her ex-co-workers (tonight), going to the temple, seeing Mom, and (obviously) going on my mission.
This story hasn't ended yet. In fact, this story, hopefully, will last for years.
