What a relaxing weekend I am having, I have been lazy watching movies and laying out by the pool. I had planned on going to the driving range but my new clubs haven't come yet...I now, life sounds so hard. Work is going so much better, I am finally starting to see some results of all the planning and working, and I'll be rolling out a couple of the programs this week. I told my boss I wanted more responsibility and he gave me the task of researching and creating a presentation on where the new headquarters for Latin America should be, talk about a cool responsibility. I never thought I would be given so many opportunities as an intern to make a real impact on things, and it feels good to have the trust of my coworkers to do so many important things. Its especially big because this decision will directly affect where my boss and his family move in the next few months.

My recent workout and eating habits have trickled down to my boss...or should I say trickled up? I couldn't help but smile when he ended up following me to the gym after work this week, and now he is a regular too. I walked in on him eating a salad for lunch, I don't know if this was because of my influence, but it was fun to think I might have played a part in him wanting to change. Either way, its amazing to think that however small you may feel in the world, that someone is watching and you can have an impact on their life in the smallest little way. I still remember the most random things from people over the years that I have never forgotten, and I'm sure they would be surprised if I saw them again and told them how the smallest thing they did influenced me.

Joni is coming again next weekend and she'll be here for 10 days. We are planning on going to Nashville for the 4th of July. The week after that my mom is coming to visit, then the next weekend I'm going to Texas, then the next week I'll be in New York for work, then my last weekend in Louisville, then Joni and I are going to Chicago for a couple of days. I have a feeling the next 7 weeks will fly by. I got tickets to see the Cubs and Cardinals at Wrigley when we go to Chicago, I am so excited and I have always wanted to go back.

I don't always wear the same clothes, but since I don't have the camera I had to post a picture from Joni's visit last time.

I don't normally do these but I have been tagged to do one of those "about me" things, and I would hate to dissapoint. So here it is:

JOYS: Desserts...pretty much anything, the feeling you get AFTER working out, being outside, the time of night when the sun has just gone down during the summer, family (that includes my puppy), fresh corn on the cob, BBQ's (not just for the food but with people), laughing out loud, singing along to music in my car, making people smile because I'm singing to music in my car, uplifting movies, hugging Joni.

FEARS: When I slap my belly and it shakes for 3 seconds, not living life to the fullest, swimming in deep water, something bad happening to a loved one, being too serious, trying to be a good dad someday, hair growing in wierd places, having the freedom to do what I love taken away.

GOALS: Lose 5 pounds (my gut), get a good job after graduation, be a dad someday, buy a house in the next 5 years, pay off school debt, own or run a business/franchise on the side someday, always hold a temple recommend, be a better listener.

CURRENT OBSESSIONS: Working out/running, talking to Joni, finding new hobbies, listening to music, ebay, blogging, oreo blizzards...these things change all the time.

I don't know how many people I am supposed to tag but I tag EVERYONE who reads this...HAHA.
