I’m not sure what exciting things I am forgetting to report about from last week. Things were fairly busy, so there must have been something worth reporting. Kortney saw Wicked twice the week before last at Pantages and reported that they had some audio problems the second night she was there. I need to see if I can’t find a time to make it up there this year.

I’ve been enjoying reading “The Mormon Way of Doing Business” by Jeff Benedict. I discovered it on the Church CIO’s blog just after our group agreed to do a report on David Neeleman, the founder and CEO of JetBlue. The book covers him and a few others and has been quite interesting. It is written more for non-members, but has useful information for everyone. I have enjoyed reading about the challenges and situations some of these LDS leaders have been in and their reactions to them. It is certainly the best book I have read this year, but almost anything has to be better than most textbooks. Funny part is, it probably could be a textbook for our leadership class and could enlighten some people at the same time. I hope to get in a bit of that during my part of the presentation.

Ryan and I went riding on Tuesday morning and then again on Saturday. I hope we are able to keep this up. I have enjoyed spending the time with him as well as just having some time to get away from it all, alleviate some stress and get some fresh air and exercise.

I had lunch with Alison yesterday; she is home for Easter. I worked a wedding yesterday evening and spent the rest of my time doing homework. I did Church o’ Bob this morning and then rushed to my Church from there. I felt so drained at Church after a hectic weekend. I think it is time to cut back my involvement at the Bob. I could use the cash, but I think I could use the time more. As CBC gets busier and busier, I need more time there and have less to dedicate elsewhere. I need to get through school and make sure I do it all while staying alive too. I still haven’t done my taxes, or my mom’s either. I have school projects and other work building up because I am just being pulled in too many directions. I can’t concentrate on getting things done and getting them done well, so it is time to cut back somewhere.

One of the talks at General Conference was about making someday today if I remember correctly. (I listen to so many things, it could have been a devotional from BYUI, but it doesn’t matter.) I’m a huge procrastinator and it drives me crazy. I always say, “someday we’ll do x,” but the someday needs to be today. We all need to prepare for what is ahead. Off the topic of the talk, we need to act today to stop destroying the world we are in if we want something to be left for our children. I need to prepare today for exams and projects coming up. I need to prepare my life for what is to come in the next few years.

I think I’ve done enough ranting and rambling for one night, so I’m going to stop procrastinating and go to bed!
