Spot Light

Tonight at Ward Prayer my roommate K. and I were spot lighted. I always get so nervous being in front of a crowd. I'm afraid of grandstanding or showing up who I'm up there with. And I'm nervous that I won't be able to think of something clever to say fast enough. Or that I won't be clever at all. I like being clever. Anyway, everyone had the chance to ask us any questions they cared too and the best (or the ones I had the best answer to) was "what kind of superhero power would you like to have?" My answer? "It doesn't matter as long as I get to wear my underwear on the outside of my clothes." Also, someone asked me how old I was which is a question I hate because I'm kind of old for a singles ward in Provo. So, I asked back, "My real age or my fake age?" They said real age so I answered, "27" they asked then, what's your fake age and I answered, "34." I heard someone say, ooh, She's soo cute. Which, I guess I was going for... but the best laugh of the night was after all my performing and acting cute and saying clever things, no one still came up and talked to me afterwrads. Oh well! Jokes on them, laugh, I'm outta here anyway.

7 O'clock Slump

So, I'd like to write about my 4th of July holiday and how much fun I had white water rafting down the Snake River in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I'd tell you about my favorite people that came, J. and A. and S. and N. and how my favorite co-worker and friend E. came with me and it was her very first time. I'd like to take the time to tell you about the misquitos everywhere! and how I was bite 7 times. About how I brought with me a bag bursting full of old credit card receipts and bills and junk from the last 6 years and how I had a wild time burning it all in the camp fire. I'd want to express to you how much I love the Snake and how beautiful it is up in the mountains with the green trees and beautifully forested canyons and hills and how I want to live in Aspen or Thayne and marry a river guide. I'd laugh while I told you about cliff jumping and getting pulled out of the boat and how cold the water was and the fact that J. almost took me out when he got stuck surfing a hole and didn't yeild to tonage and if I hadn't ducked when I did I would have ended up with a crushed face and as it was we both got the bejesus scared out of us!! I would tell you about how happy and tan and relaxed I am and how much I love river trips, but the truth of the matter is that I've hit my 7 o'clock slump and I got back late and am too tired to do it. Sorry.
