"Connor D. Artois. Your resume looks good, you have a Masters degree in physical science, you are a Senior DeMolay, y-you're good to go. Welcome to the company!" The recruiter says with a smile and an extension of the hand. I shake his hand and say,
"Thank you sir. I promise I won't let the company down."
"I'm sure you won't. See you Monday." he says while gesturing me to leave. I leave with a smile on my face and a click of my heels as I walk out the door to my apartment. I probably live the most normal life out of anybody in Louisiana. I don't do drugs, I don't party, I don't smoke I have a steady relationship and my girlfriend is supportive of me in whatever I do. I'm pretty fucking normal.

I get home and my girlfriend is in the living room, eating a bowl of cereal, listening to music from the TV, when sees me she almost chokes on her Fruity Pebbles in an excited/surprised manner and shoots up, still chewing and hugs me.
"So how'd it go?" she asks, I reply
"I got the job!"
"Yaaaaay!!! *smooch* I'm so proud of you! What should we do to celebrate?"
"Umm, we could go out to eat?"
"That works for me. Where do you want to eat?"
"Surprise me." She giggles in excitement and scurries into the bedroom for the computer. My girlfriend Shay, is the most beautiful girl in Louisiana. She is also pretty normal, she doesn't do drugs, smoke or party hard, and I support her with whatever she tries to do. We're both pretty fucking normal to everybody's standards.
