Consult, please.
Does anyone know anything about or anyone in Fargo? HoneyHaired has an opportunity to work there for a co-op this winter quarter and my knowledge is only cinematic...and it's 19 degrees there...

Suspend reality and basic common sense as I invite you to Eastern StandardTime Hospital...
Many of you have shown interest in my job as a Mental Health Associate. This is probably due to the serious life-saving work that my fellow co-workers and I accomplish. Hey, coffee doesn't drink itself! However, many of you have only heard half of the story. The truth is, there is a very serious contest conducted every month at ESH. The winner of said contest gets their very own picture taken which is placed in the monthly newsletter along with their answers to 16 hard hitting questions.
I've never been let in on the secret details of how such employees are chosen. I have often questioned the validity of this award due to the fact that I have never been nominated. Ludicrous, I know. I imagine that there must be some sort of electoral college establishment involved in the selection process. This would explain how I could have possibly lost 47 months in a row. Like Al Gore, I'm winnin…

It has a Starbucks, which you'd recognize as crucial if you're in the middle of a long haul home from Montana. Other than that, I know little about this city, except as I've been told by the Coen brothers.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who lives near there (maybe - she might live in the other Dakota, & isn't it sad that I can't remember). I'll check when I get home tonight & let you know :)
ReplyDeleteMy friend Darci IS in Fargo (or a suburb thereof). She tried to post here, but couldn't get it to work (she's not a blogger). If you'd like to get in touch with her her email address is aggiepants at facebook.com

ReplyDeleteoh my....sounds like time for some long underwear....smiles
ReplyDeleteI think young adults should always take a shot at anything that could be a valuable learning experience but I remember watching Weather Channel and wondering why anyone would live in Fargo, which was often the coldest, windiest city on the map! Long underwear will be needed for sure.
ReplyDeleteAs a transplant to Minnesota from TX, my understanding is that the cinematic version captures the essence of the area. Wouldn't be my first choice, but if it has a coo-p and Starbucks, I could make it. Much to be learned living in the cold -- and then there's God's country (the Northwoods of MN) within a half-day's drive! If she's got a sense of humor and a streak of hardiness, she'll manage just fine!
