Oktoberfest

Oktoberfest was good times. I have been helping plan it and run it for the last few months. It seemed to go pretty well. I met some new people and hung out with friends and family. I heard jokes from people I didn't expect. I ran around and ID checked and people were thrown off that I actually looked at the year they were born. Lutherans can be hard core when it comes to liquor. I had some heart to heart conversations. Who knew running around for two days setting up a party for hundreds of people with little rest, no sunscreen, no food, and beer would actually be a good time. But it was a great time and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Amen

love thy accoutant

Today at work my section got to get out of the office for the day. We went to Jordanelle to see the dive team do a demonstration. The dive team is a bunch of funny guys and it and it was great to see what they do to bring closure to families. Going out on the boat was cool and to see all the sonar tools. So getting off the boat was a tricking thing. One don't wear flip flops two don't be short. So getting off the boat and slipped and landed in the water. In front of everyone. Is there a section on workers comp for a bruised ego. I did get a cheer from all the people in the pavillion. Nothing like falling in front of coworkers, boss, director, and cops. hml. But it was still a good day. I don't like the provo canyon route to jordanelle. Just sayin'. I did get a sunburn too cause sunscreen needs to be reapplied and even more so after a "swim". bahh. Then getting home after a great day of work I got a potential juror notice. I am getting better at not taking myself so seriously in my old age and am learning to laugh more. Amen.
