Here is a quick and hopefully less nerdy blog. This weekend when I was supposed to stay in on Friday night and rest up for a busy Saturday, I ended up at CJ's and ultimately had a great time. However, it made for a short night of sleep before waking up bright and early to help with check in at the Fall Student Leadership Conference. I had the distinct pleasure of introducing the key note speaker Troy Stende http://www.stendeinspirations.com/. From his message during the opening address and then from attending his board breaking workshop, I relearned the power of the mind and positive thoughts. I truly is impressive. I also met some amazing individuals, Josh and Liz and Belena.

Then my adventures took me to WSU to sell programs once again. I ended up having this random kid in an Oregon jump suit carrying a very large black bag stumble into the load dock I operate and manage my sellers from. He asks if he can change there. I politely tell him that there is a restroom just down the hall. But he's like you know I am the DUCK, I need lots of space. Sure as shit, he opens up the bag and starts putting on all the items he needs to be the Mascot. He talks about knowing David Vobera former Vandal and Mr. Irrelevant from this past draft. Then he tells me about the the mascot fight he caught in that caused the DUCK to get banned for two games. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY0B8qtUF8o

After programs I rushed home to clean up and head over to Dean's house for dinner. I had briefly made time to call my brother and wish him a happy birthday and then had a wonderful hangout with Dean and Denelle and Alex and all their guests. Dean made the best lasagna I had had in years.

Saturday night I finally did make it to bed early. Then Sunday I got up and in took it pretty easy before I got the wild hair to go run a little bit. I found a 10 mile loop I was going to try. Well it ended up turning into almost 12 miles, but I survived: http://www.usatf.org/routes/view.asp?rID=249290. Good practice for the half marathon next weekend: http://www.cityoftreesmarathon.com. Really I probably shouldn't be running that far that close to the actual race but what the hell.
