Andiamo a mangiare!

Last night there were a few of us that went to dinner with the Bishop and his wife. The dinner was purchased by Lisa through the December auction that we had. It was some of the best Italian food that I've had in a while. As human beings we all have thoughts about other people running through our heads. After last night, and for that matter all the times that Bishop hangs out with us, it sure would be interesting to know what the Bishop and his wife truly think about us. For pics and video from the dinner..... http://mikeshin.blogspot.com/2008/01/dinner-with-bish.html
You'll find plenty of mocking of my amazing/photogenic smile there too.

SNOWBOARD PRO -At least on "Discovery"

Today Lisa Low, Mike Grass and I went snowboarding at Crystal. We didn't get there until pretty late which was ok with me because that meant less time for me to get hurt. I was a bit nervous because I haven't been in a while (5 years) and have only gone 3 total times. Apologies to Lisa and Mike about my whining in the car about being nervous. It had been so long that I forgot many things including warm socks but Lisa let me borrow her gingerbread boy socks that I put over my pair of socks. I just bought a Discovery lift ticket since I was wanting to slowly get back into it. We definitely made some discoveries, one of which was that I figured out that there are people that are less talented than me. It was actually going great until one time when I went to get off the lift and I curved to the left rather than straight and the chair came around and pushed me right over causing me do to a complete front flip. That was just one of my many performed tricks. It was definitely a confidence builder to be able to speed down the hill with the wind beneath my wings. I definitely rode that bunny hill for 8 strong seconds.

FHE....Commandment as a single to attend???

Tonight I went to FHE, at least part of it. I showed up late which was fine because it never starts on time anyway. I found out that we would be watching a Charlie Chaplin movie and drinking soda from what I assume was left over from a summer activity. I noticed that as the movie began some of my friends snuck out the back. Hmmm.....great, a movie that I don't want to see and nobody around to make fun of others. I decided that I could make myself much more useful by visiting someone in the quorum that was not in attendance. That was an interesting experience. The question is.......Is FHE a commandment as a single or is it just as beneficial to go to Red Robin and hang out with friends or go to work and finish projects that haven't been completed?

My first post

I've often set goals to write in a journal but have never succeeded so I took the advice of a friend to start a blog. I think I have a pretty exciting/interesting life so maybe, just maybe somebody else will think so. If nothing else it will be interesting to my posterity.
Anyways, look out for future posts from me and my exciting life.
