A conflict of interest

Success. After 4.5 months of being a bum, I received a job offer from the U of U today and I plan to accept tomorrow. Believe me, I never thought I would align myself with the Utes in any way, but this is a great opportunity and I figure that this will give me the chance to show how loyal I am to the Cougars. Don't worry E-Rob, I will be wearing blue on my first day of work and on game days.

I can't remember what I've already told you about the position, but I am an Academic Program Coordinator for the Executive MBA Program. I'll let you know what that means when I figure it out. Lots of event planning and schmoozing. I start a week from Thursday and I will be at a golf tournament for alumni the next day. Good thing I took those golf lessons while I was unemployed!

Thanks again for all of your love, support, and prayers. Let the celebrations begin!
