Sanity Returns!... And then departs again

My, my, my... how time flies when you've got a real job. Ok, so it's just an internship, but whatevs... Last time I blogged I was raving about my birfday and how surprisingly good my day was. But let me tell you, things have gotten SO much better since then!

The weekend after my birthday, I drove to Appleturkey and got to spend a couple days with Mum, Dad and Grandma! When I rolled up to the house late Friday night (June 5th), I was greeted with a HUGE birthday cake!


Grandma made me a big yellow birthday cake with chocolate frosting (my favorite!) and even put polka-dots on the sides in Meghan's honor! Is she the best grandma in the world or WHAT?! I got to go to the temple with her and the parentals, out to dinner with Aunt Dianne and Uncle Ken, and even got my car windows tinted! (They look phat...)

After spending my first week in Tucson all alone, it was a much-needed refresher and spending time with the the fam was exactly what I needed.

That said, (Mum, Dad and Grandma, please take no offense at this) but last weekend (June 11-14) was even better! Why?

Because THIS girl came to see me!


Yep, that's right! She came down with Lance, Candy, Kenz and Cate and spent the weekend with me! Megs spent the day at the pool (and got really burned) while I was at work, and then we part-ayed all weekend! We got to go up to Pheonix so I could meet some of Megs' cousins, and so Megs could meet Stacey and the girls! It was great!

Nevermind of course the fact that I forgot a tie and went to church open-collared. Yeah, it was awkward.

We even got to go to the Diamondbacks game Saturday night!


The stadium was awesome and the game was fun, but the best part was just being with the wifey, eventhough I made her mad by getting my Dr. Pepper confiscated upon entering the ballpark... :)

Sunday night was a sad moment however, because Megs had to get back up to Utah and I had work at GEICO Monday morning as well. And so, I'm alone once again.

This last week at work has been crazy. On Thursday, we attended a meeting for newly-hired employees and got to meet the CEO, Tony Nicely!!!!


He is an amazing speaker and it was really neat to talk with him for a few minutes. Later that day, he actually walked-in on one of our meetings! Whodathunkit.... the CEO coming into our meeting! It was a great day.

I went golfing Saturday (and almost died of heat stroke), and then today we gave our first "official" presentation, based on our previous two weeks. It went well, and they gave us Olive Garden for lunch to celebrate!

As you can see, it's full-on here in Tucson and things are heating up, along with the weather! Oh, and one last thing... as a congratulations for our presentation today, the director of claims at the office gave us all tickets to the pool section for the Diamondbacks game up in Phoenix tomorrow! So, I'll apologize in advance if I don't answer my phone tomorrow night; I'll be here...

and here!


Thanks for reading! I'll have updates on the pool temp after the game! :)

I miss you Megs!
