It is being fired from that job that is the stimulus for her year of rest and relaxation. She live alone in an apartment on the not-exactly-ghetto section of New York City known as the Upper East Side of Manhattan and was employed in a less than stressful position in the less than stressful business commonly referred to as “working in an art gallery.” Orphaned during that last year of college, she has since enjoyed a life that ninety-percent of the American population would consider one which lead to what events do actually occur.
