Catch Up...

I love my life every Fall. I don't have to worry about a social life (who has time for friends), I don't have to clean my room (because I sleep in my own bed a total of like 3 nights), I don't have to cook (it's just easier to eat out every meal), and I don't have to pay for gas (because I'm sporting a chevy impala these days). Yeah life is awesome. I figured I was in Logan a total of 6 days last month... and yes that included weekends.
Even though work is insane, there have been some funny highlights:

1. Witches Night Out @ Gardner Village- For some reason, women... of all ages... go crazy when they put on a witch costume. Dancing, cackling, shopping... couldn't be happier.

Jess and Em both work at Archibalds- have you ever had deep fried Avacado? Delicious.

2. Phoenix, AZ- We did a recruitment reception in Mesa AZ- which was awesome. Craig used his magic to get us "conciere service" which included cookies and milk delivered to our room every day. I could get used to that treatment... I also could get used to 85 degree weather in October. (I've already asked Jenn for a transfer)




Kate also decided to wear her dad's newest gift... in public.
3. Portland, OR- We went to a conference (PACRAO) in Portland this last week. We managed to squeeze in multiple sports bars (you know how I am with my sports) and some shopping along with this nice lady... man...she...he...oh well welcome to Portland.

Of course I also got my needed palm reading from Maria. I'm afraid I can't tell you about the palm reading, Maria asked us not to and I must respect Maria's wishes. Let's just say it was insightful and probably the best $5 I've ever spent.

At PACRAO, they had a "gala' that included dueling pianos. They did requests and sing-a-longs. Does the term "Registrars Gone Wild" mean anything to you?

All in all it's been an eventful and exhausting month. Its sad when my dream weekend includes cleaning my house, sleeping and catching up on some needed tv!

Did Holly actually curse? I believe she did with OMG because it made me think the word. I think we should wash her mouth out (or celebrate...I'm not sure which).

On a personal note - don't ever (and I mean EVER!) go to Witches night out without me again! Ever! or we can't be friends.

I hate your life in the fall. You never call, you never write...

Just kidding. Love you!

Enjoy the weekend home. I hope you watched a little CMT and didn't shower until at least 3.
