Some... well.... news

So, I walked in to the church today at noon like usual and start setting up the sacrament before choir starts and then I practice with the choir from 12:20 till 12:55 and rapidly finish preparing the sacrament and luckily the other guy found people to pass and got the bread ready. And as I'm going to sit down at the blessing bench one of the high consellors shakes my hand and says "Are you Robert?" "yes" "I need to meet with you after sacrament today if we could find a place to meet" So I spend the rest of sacrament meeting wondering what in the world he wants to meet with me about, because, high counsellors come from the stake, and the stake wanting to talk to me is not generally a good thing. And then I thought, well, maybe he has been talking with the bishop and wants to set up a time I can go in for a temple recommend interview with the stake president. And THEN I remembered a conversation I had with my roomie, the elders quorumn president, a couple weeks ago when I asked him how long they leave eq presidents in for, and he said a year, and I asked when he got put in, and he said the first week of February. So as I'm sitting there thinking in sacrament meeting I said "huh, next week is the first week of February. Crap" Sure enough, we met and they want me to be the 2nd counsellor in the north elders quorumn. And at the time I was ok with it, cuz I knew when Jake got called a year ago that this would be a possibility and after talking with him a couple weeks ago I think I kinda started to prepare myself. Anyways, so now I've got one more thing to be nervous about. They're going to set me apart next sunday and I imagine I'll get even more nervous by then. So that's my news. Adieu

You can call me superman

That's right, you heard correctly. I'm a life saver. I guess I've always known my super powers, but today I got to see them in action. That's right, my blood could save up to 6 people. Hold the applause. The best part is that I didn't pass out in front of all those girls, 3 of whom I home teach. Oh, and they had to give me ice packs and water to keep me from throwing up, BUT, who ever said being a superhero was easy? *dashes away*
