Overview of the last week...really that's all it is.


So, this last week I had Monday and Tuesday off, these things happen. But Monday I got up at 5 in the lovely AM to go to work because Big Buddah was coming. He works at Fox 13, so does my friend Kelton. So I mention to Buddah that he should tell Kelton to answer a text message and we need to play. I mentioned this thinking he would say it back at the station....

...He didn't...

He instead decided to day it on-air, live. So it's not like I could do anything about it. It was just funny.

I then went home and took a long nap, the night before had been one of those nights where I didn't sleep. Then wake up and I watched 7 hours of criminal minds. This is a show that fascinates and disturbs me. But I can't seem to stop watching it. I also feel like I should have been way more scared to go to bed than I was.

Fast forward to Wednesday...Pioneer Day...the 166 anniversary of the Pioneers entering the Salt Lake Valley. And the second busiest day at the park. We had roughly 3,000 guests that day alone. So many people...I was on the news again. Fox 13 again, in fact. For like...30 seconds. They had me and April in our crowns. (It was technically the last day of our reign.) While Cliff talked about the various activities going on around the village.

After getting off work, me and Kim head down to Mapleton, to see some cousins, but mostly to see my family when they get in. My little brother is moving out here to school and I don't see my family very often, so I do what I need to to see them when they get into town. I was also REALLY tired the next day. ( I didn't get home till after midnight, and I had to be up at like...7 ish. And pioneer hangover day isn't always very fun at work, all the pioneers are just tired.)

Fast forward again to Saturday. So Saturday night I am suppose to leave from work to go up to Tremonton to spend time with the family. Except that I got asked on a date to the movie that a bunch of Co-workers were going to. I don't care what anyone says Lone Ranger was AWESOME!!!!! And it's even cooler when you go dressed up in pioneer clothes.

So this is the second date I have been on in the last two years. (The last date I went on was Brighams Ball, and the last one before that was 2 years ago...and it...yeah...it's its own story...)

Brent, from work, took me to the movie, we then had dinner at California Pizza Kitchen and then I drove to Tremonton, getting in around midnight.

But it was a really fun date actually. He was very much a gentleman, and we get a long really well. We are going on another date next week, after my family is out of town. I doubt this is going to go very far, because quite frankly, I don't think I will ever see him as more than a friend. But it was just a lot of fun.

So there is a quick catch up from Mandy's life.
