About Me

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
I love gerbera daisies. 20something laid back gal with an Irish-Catholic background and a thirst for beer and whiskey. Above are the Irish rioting in Philly, I aim to do my best to uphold the tradition. This is the story of my Philadelphia takeover.

Worth It



For the past two weeks I've been going through major job burnout! I'm tired of hearing about the iPhone and how people are angry with the fact that we aren't carrying it (not our choice) blah blah blah.
But today I had a moment that redeemed the gunk of this job for a bit. A gentleman came in and purchased 18 iPod Shuffles for the nursing staff who cared for his premature baby girl. She was born 3 months early and very sick. She is now very happy and alive and doing wonderful. He wanted to thank the staff who helped his lovely Flora survive. How awesome.
It's the little things that help you to get by sometimes and remind you of the value in keeping things in perspective. I'm healthy, I'm happy, I'm getting paid regularly, I'm doing just fine.
And to Flora, glad you're still here with us, it sounds like you've got two wonderful parents and a beautiful life ahead of you.
