It will get lost in my inbox so i have to post it on my blog. this is the email i got from jordy bug today...
I know I'm a dork but...
...I'm obsessed with trying to get that perfect photo! This morning I left work to get breakfast for me and a few co-workers. I pulled into the store parking lot and was greeted by a beautiful sight - the sunrise shining only on the tops of the snow-capped Wellsville mountains, with a patch of brilliant blue sky above sandwiched between a layer of white clouds and dark storm clouds. Crappy description, just let it be known it was amazing! So, without stopping, I zoomed through the parking lot, raced home, ran up to my apt, seized my camera, jumped back in my car, nearly side-swiped a school bus, jumped back out of my car, climbed a huge mound of mud to get a clear shot, and then carefully snapped a few pictures. Not quite satisfied with what was in the foreground of the pictures (more mounds of mud), I drove out of town a little way to try and get some better ones. I ended up on busy 14th North during rush hour and got a few honks from people driving by and thinking, "what's that idiot doing?" Don't worry, I get it all the time! I started to drive even further out, thinking I'd drive out on the highway to get a reflection picture in the swamplands, but then remembered that hungry people were waiting for me to bring back their breakfast.
Sorry for the long email, just wanted to make sure you all had additional confirmation that I'm a weirdo! Either that or I'm drop dead bored at work. And no, I didn't call myself a "dorkbut" in the subject line so don't even go there. Love you all and have a great Tuesday!

My dad came to visit BYU Hawaii!! Oh, wait. I mean President Eyring came- I get the two mixed up. They look so much alike and their sweet, gentle spirits never cease to amaze and touch my heart. Whenever I see President Eyring I just think- "Daddy!" He gave wonderful remarks about family today that touched me because my family is my lifeblood. I wish I could hug ya'll!
