185 I was a waitress and was amped up and wired all week with the inability to forget anything, even the most trivial details, also seems to be indicative of having been taken and used for something. Possibly my body and mind seemed unable to adjust and come back down, and I remained in a heightened state for some time afterwards. For myself, I noticed a definitive change, or at least another subtle level of change, occurring around the age of 22-23, in 1997. That’s when my brain seemed to suddenly become “smarter” and much, MUCH more clear all the time, versus only during those select times when I needed it, like in school. It’s also when I first noticed my inadvertent lightning fast reflexes. It all came in handy I must say at my jobs. As a waitress I could now take orders without having to write them down, (which helps boost your tips ;) ...that really seems to impress people). And in ’99 when I was working at an executive suites, answering the switchboard for up to 48 different companies, it also paid off. There were times when Id be answering multiple calls for 33-48 companies on the ten-line system using a headset, (which very frequently meant having no less than ten calls at a time on hold that you’d have to work your way through, then put another ten on hold, and another...) and having every single four digit extension and every four digit voicemail memorized, along with the whereabouts of every person I answered phones for off the top off my head so I wouldn’t have to stop and refer to my sheet.....and during one particular time period while simultaneously doing data entry side projects at the same time as answering the phone, typing (at that point) 65 wpm/10,000+ keystrokes per hour. All for $9.00 an hour. They sure got their money’s worth with me. It’s all very reminiscent though of my dad’s “unusual” performance in the Navy of translating Morse code into type at something like 80-90+ wpm, among his other abilities which I get into in the Appendix. http://www.in2worlds.net/abductions Maybe there was a biological/nutritional reason for this, but I kind of doubt it. It just seems to me that I was upgraded. I was always smart.....but never THAT good. As with my dad, it was like the potential and foundation was there, and then maybe something came along and tweaked things a bit. Factoring in the roundabout indicators of abductions occurring in my early 20s, (despite the fact that I didn’t even know about the topic) and these “talents and skills” definitely seem suspect in retrospect. Although I’ve certainly met people who Part III - Expanded Insights —_—_—_—_—— ee *e don’t profess to understand why this is. But that incident in ’97 when
