The week that came and went

I really needed to include this High School drama production picture my New Zealand friend posted on Facebook. Yes, I was probably about 17 years old in the picture, I had longer hair, and I am wearing a "Janet Jackson" microphone--if you can't see it. Anyway, I've had an action-packed week this week. I'm not sure that this is ever going to calm down--but I hope it does.

Firstly, because I was trying to prepare for the two minute talk I had to give in devotional on Tuesday, this week was the first time for over a month that I stayed up till 12:30pmish during a weekday. That might not be that shocking to any of you, but I thought that I had to confess that on my blog. Now I feel better about myself. In the same breath, I did still wake up to work-out the next morning at 6.30am. You betcha.

So, probably because you all know I'm somewhat of an extrovert, I had the greatest day on Tuesday. Two reasons: I spoke in the Marriott Center--everyone laughed (Click here for the Daily Universe article), and I ran into Tamilisa from the Church Audio Visual Department, who then had me make an appearance in a new Church DVD for New Years Eve celebrations across America! What are the chances? I'm walking back to the Wilk and she's like "Hi Adam, can you just wait here for like 10 minutes?" And voila. Church video stardom. Ha ha ha ha ha. Maybe one day I can move up the ranks to maybe sing on an EFY CD? (Seriously though, that's my next dream).

Also, Joseph Nance and I had lunch with the new San Diego Temple president, Bruce Olsen. He is also the former president of the Alumni Association, former Managing Director of Church Public Affairs, and a dear friend. He starts his term as Temple president pretty soon, hopefully we'll be able to able to pay him a visit down there. California, here we come!
