Dear Moab,

Thank you for the great weather, frisbee in the park, the Delicate Arch hike, the Colorado River - class III rapids, the wet suits & life vests, putting the wet suits on, helping others get their wet suits on, River Guide Jake, tailgate breakfast time, sleeping sans tent under the stars...illegally...sort of, early morning yoga from Cheryl, sunrises, detours in West Helper, slightly melted PB M&Ms, endless amounts of drinking water, true love in the Price Taco Bell parking lot, excellent road trip conversation, sing-a-longs, Chaco's tan lines, naps in the park, pizza buffet eating contests, jalapeño cheese bread from Maverick, Judd the bus driver who needed a lift and many many many more memories...priceless.

Dear Patience

I'm sorry I forget to use you when things start to hit the fan - especially at work. I tend to panic and resort to anger/frustration/loud outbursts as I read emails from coworkers who make my life difficult to exercise patience. It's not you. It's me. I'm working on it. Please don't give up on me. I think I'll need you more than ever in the upcoming months.

Dear Grey's Anatomy

It's so nice to have you back with new episodes. I've missed you.

What happens in Orlando,

Stays in Orlando.

Dear First Work Trip Ever

While I'm staying at the Royal Pacific Resort in Orlando, should I spend my "downtime" at the Lagoon or the Pool?

The Lagoon...or...The Pool

I guess it's a good thing I'll be there for 4 days so I can give both a fair shot...I hate making hard life-altering decisions: man-made beach or man-made concrete pond? TRUTH: As long as I get tan it doesn't really matter.

Dear Giant in the City "Black Tie" Banquet

Thank you for giving me a reason to dress up and feel fancy. Thank you for the delicious 3-course meal, particularly the dessert: cheesecake with passion fruit filling. Thank you Elder Russel M. Nelson for speaking on the many wonderful contributions William H. Nelson has made to the healthcare industry - I still think I should have said "Amen" after you finished - you're an apostle! And thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for the amazing live band: The Beach Boys. Who knew those old guys could still rock? My only regret is that I didn't take one of the centerpieces.

Dear TANY

I'm filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau regarding your unfair business practices. Mostly that you get to work in your PJs, eat authentic homemade Italian lasagne and get to plan your wedding away from the craziness of TAUT.

Jealous.
