Today

Today was a busy day.  Work, obviously, after work was yoga and then I came home and made dinner... One of my friends was on the Today Show.  So, that was REALLY neat.  I'm also going to a show of his on the 14th...  Which is Tuesday.  Some other stuff happened too...

SO, I know my friend that was on the Today Show through this summer camp that I work for still.  We were both campers and counselors there together.  Well, every year the director of the camp comes down for a camp fair.  This year, he can't make it because on top of the foot of snow that Maine just got, they are possibly going to get another 1-2 feet Sunday-Tuesday.  So, rather than risk it, the director of the camp has bestowed the honor upon me to represent the camp at the camp fair.

It's about 2 hours, I'm sure it will be a good time.  I'm just going to run over there after work.  He's overnighting some brochures and a neat looking banner and such.  I'll put on a camp shirt and basically, I'm gonna rep the camp at the fair.

My job will be to just have materials to hand out, and then collect leads for the office to follow up on.  It's basically your standard recruiting stuff.  Basically, perspective parents will be looking for camps to send their kids to during the summer.  So... My job is just to be there to offer up this camp as one of their possible choices.

The things I get myself into.  Haha, but in all seriousness, I've been associated with the camp since 1999, which is coming close to 20 years.  I've been at my college gig now for a decade and I know the open house events they have for recruiting students.

I'm just doing it as a favor for a friend though.  I figure as well, it could be an interesting experience.  Who knows, I might have a situation in the future where this experience might come in handy for reference.

Never know!

But mostly, I mean, we're talking about a close friend here that just needs a favor.

Anyway, so I'm at home now and I'll probably head to sleep early because the next few days will be pretty action packed.  Tomorrow night is a birthday party I've been invited to.  Sunday night I'm going to phone chat with the camp director so he can give me the rundown on what to expect.  Monday night is the camp fair itself... Tuesday night is my friend's concert...

I was kind of thinking that Tuesday night would be low-key and I'd just kind of chill at the bar and relax with a couple beers and enjoy the show, but since he was on the Today Show today and now his one single is number 2 on the Singer/Songwriter charts sandwiched between two Ed Sheeran songs...

Who knows, there might be a packed audience of new found Philly fans.  I guess we'll see.

So, that's my today.

Oh, finally, my Activision-Blizzard shares decided to pop up about 20 percent today.  It's now one of my leading stock positions in my portfolio.  So, that was neat to see when I checked my investment portfolio holdings this morning on market open.

All in all it's been a pretty good day.
