What I've Been Up To

I've been up to a lot lately.  It's mostly been work, but there have been a few fun times as well...

Toy Story 3
I saw Toy Story 3 on opening weekeng, and let me tell you (if you haven't given in and seen it yet), it's the BOMB.com!  I'll be honest, I cried (HARD) several times.  It made me really nostalgic for my childhood, and it also reminded of how bittersweet it was to leave for college.  I highly recommend it.  Pixar has done it again!



Aeropostale Sale
Later that day I went shopping at the mall and ran across a sale that Aeropostale was having.  Just about their entire store was on sale.  I got a lot of cute polos and graphic tees to replace my crumbling old t-shirts.  Plus a super cute swim suit cover.

Fun, huh?

Census
Things have been wrapping up at the Census office for our big NRFU (Non-Response Follow Up) operation. We got an e-mail the other day that said Provo and Ogden were some of the last offices to finish it up, but that we had done a better quality job in several specific categories.  It was nice to hear some praise after weeks of being told to "just get it done." 

On Thursday, Davy Jones and I FINALLY finished up the last questionnaires from our big project!  It was a good feeling, but after that we sat around wondering what to do next.  Haha, guess we'll have to do some of the grunt work for a while.

Here are some of my buddies from the office:
Top: Soup Dave, me, Sammy, Dick
Bottom: Davy Jones, Nancy

And a comic on our bulletin board that is only too true...


Getting Ready for Eclipse
1. Read The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner
(Entire book is FREE online until July 5th at www.breetanner.com).  
It's really good! And it's a fast read, only 178 pages.  Thanks, Mom, for sharing.


Check!

2. Re-read Eclipse, since I forgot the entire story.  (Currently in progress)
3. Re-watch Twilight.
4. Re-watch New Moon.
5. See Eclipse!


Coming Up This Week:  Provo's Freedom Festival and Stadium of Fire!
