Jazz Game

So last night I went to the Jazz game on a date. Spencer's dad was able to get us the Huntsman company tickets so we spent the first half in one of the suites. When we got there President Monson was sitting watching the game. At half time my date when up and talked to him because she just got her mission call. After she finished we were leaving the box and as I passed him he said "I see you are taking up drinking" ( I had a bottled water in my hand) I told him that it was good for me. After that he said "well you keep your eye on that girl she is a good one". It was pretty funny. After we left the box we went and sat on the very first row on the floor. We were inches away from Boozer, Korver, and even Tracy Mcgrady walked by us. The guy next to Spencer was cussing Mcgrady out which was kind of awkward then Mcgrady said somethings back but we could not hear him. Overall it was a pretty eventful night!

A New Leaf

I hereby promise to my siblings (and visiting parents) that after my ear/sinus infection is gone I will turn over a new leaf and exercise and weigh myself diligently.

Late Start

I have gotten quite the late start in the winter of fitness. I have been using an app on my ipod where you enter your weight and your goal and it calculates a budget of calories for each day- been doing good with the food thing. Exercise is another story. Yesterday was my first workout day and today I am feeling it every time I sit on the floor to change a diaper! My wii game combines squats, lunges, kickboxing, and bicep curls. Anyway, I'm hoping I can keep it up!

Failure

I am failing the winter of fitness due to lame reading assignments, tests, class, and college basketball on ESPN. I will make a better effort...

One Hundred Pushups

Karen and I did the first day of the 100 push ups program today. Thanks for the tip Cat!

Lots of reading!

I've been doing a lot of reading. I read The Lost Symbol and was disappointed, Chains and was amazed by the writing, and The Summoning and was underwhelmed by the plot. I also read a great historical fiction adult book called The Help.

Exciting Times

Lest Mom think that I am not doing as she asked, I will share with the group my exciting story from last week: I billed 9 hours and 45 minutes one day.

U of U Library

Last night at dinner, we all shared a story of something that happened last week that everyone is supposed to post on the blog. I went with all the other secondary librarians up to see the new renovated U of U Library. It was really neat. They have one whole floor that is devoted to "collaboration," so there are lots of tables and chairs and spaces for people to meet together. We also got to different parts of the library such as the automatic retrieval room (they have many books now stored in an automatic retrieval system), a book making machine (that can make and bind you a book from Google books or from a digitized book from their rare books) and Special Collections. One of the highlights of the tour was seeing Wallace Stegner's chair and typewriter which was on display. It was an interesting morning.

PS We walked around a lot too, so that probably helped with the Winter of Fitness.
