Two Weeks, Notice ME!!!!!!!

The days of hanging suspended over a 30 ft drop are over.
So it would seem that the most essential part of submitting your two weeks notice is the part where people are thereby inflicted with the exuberant attitude that screams NOTICE ME!!  If you haven't come around to the precise angle I am getting at, I am now seeking more notice by declaring my intended departure from the arduous world of construction.  Long I have dreamed of severing the bonds of the blue-collar worker to apply my education to more challenging things, and the final countdown has arrived.  So here I stand on the tail end of two weeks notice and call for the world to notice me.  Do you care?  Who knows, but I can scarcely contain myself because as I sit here typing I can hear Lucy singing "I've got a dream" from Tangled and I, like the ugly thugs, have a dream.

Easter Reading

Awww cute, here's to her loving Easter for better reasons some day!
Many years ago as a young missionary I read the remarkable work of James E. Talmage Jesus The Christ, and in my exuberant youth I resolved to read it every year around Easter to reflect on our Savior's most magnificent life.  The reality of that overzealous commitment is that about ten years latter I finally read it again.  While I failed in my resolve I do declare that this volume of inspired writing will surly impress on anyone who reads it a profound and wonderful feeling of love for the greatest man to ever walk the face of this earth.  Happy Easter to that!
