"YEAH TODD!"

Long time no blog... what a slacker.

Anyways, of my last week in Provo before coming to San Antonio, I was out of work but managed to keep myself busy and whatnot. Details don't mean much, but I did get to the temple three days in a row and hung out with lots of friends, including some of the guys from the previous week of EFY. They asked a girl out for me, and she said she didn't believe them... come on, how often does Todd ever ask girls out? If I've done so in the last three months, then I'm good, right?

Well, this last week of EFY was very different from my previous two experiences, as will probably always be the case. Let's start from the beginning:

Being Full was the name of the group. It's from the scripture in The Book of Man of Little Consequence:

"And the man of little consequence, being full of silliness, did dance until the sweat came forth in abundance;

Which disgusted the women who refused then to notice him.

Even so, many had yet mistaken him for a youth..."

Well, the group was only 28 large, I being armed with 12 men of the older age group again, so that wasn't too much different. The difficulty was keeping them all together, out of the rain, away from the fire alarm, fully clothed, off the sidewalk with banner paints, and out of the hair of certain BC's that were ready to snap my neck by the end of the week. When I mentioned the fully clothed part, my boys decided Friday's devotional was a special "no pants" one, so I taught a bunch of kids in boxers about humility, and shortly after they had a pillow fight... Oh yeah, and some of my boys had fun stealing their counselor's mattresses, chairs, and otter pops. You know, if I didn't love them and they me, it might have been quite a difficult week. Either way it was hilarious!

So if anyone has heard that little rap/yell thingy about toast, you know, "YA TOAST!", after it was performed in the talent show by a kid banging spoons on an actual toaster, it then became our group's cheer. "YEAH TODD!!"

So go ahead and be anal, Texas San Antonio staff, and try to make me feel like a bad counselor again... I will still give my boys the best experience of the summer, and I will still have a bomb-sha-bomb time!
