I was considered “brave” and “crazy” for offering to work that shift. People were losing their minds. It was the first time I realized how gullible the general public was. I was the calm in the storm. I reminded them that air was not controlled by a computer and we would survive. It would be like “camping nursing.” Midnight -NOTHING- and people felt stupid. I’m ready for that feeling again. It was priceless.

I was 19 years old and I remember I went to a party at a cabin. It was the first time I drank 6 beers in one night. I felt like SHIT the next day. That's what I remember of Y2K! :-P
I lived in a small town at the time so the hype didn't really touch the community or freak anyone out that I can recall. I just remember it being an excuse to have a huge party and place Prince music!
