I've been working since Sunday at 3:00 p.m. so like 56 hours of never sitting down.  First I had hours long meetings with business partners who flew in for our golf tournament. Then the CEO of my organization got into a car accident right before the tournament at 7 a.m.   It was left to me to direct the entire affair all day long; Which most especially included playing hostess to the most competitive personalities in all Utah: Kyle Whittingham, Ron McBride, Bronco Mendenhall and LaVell Edwards.  Our MC, Hans Olsen (an ex BYU football player, who is now an ESPN 700 radio announcer working mostly with the U) was the MC and he saved my bacon.  I generally don't love blond, football types. But he is now my new work boyfriend.  Mostly I had to direct the luncheon and keep my Vicodin addled coworker (who is supposed to be running the tournament) out of trouble and away from the players and "celebrity" players.   I wish I was in charge, he'd have been in rehab this year.  Tournament was a stressful, sad day for me to do it alone.  Today was my kids 14th birthday, and I started to get out the door this morning and remembered he has cross country at 7 a.m. so I turned around to decorate the hallway and kitchen with birthday notes and try to make it look like I didn’t forget it was his birthday by breakfast.
