So I really am terrible about this 'regular writing' business. Oh well. How about I just post as often as I can instead?Anyway, last night I had the opportunity to attend an event celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the University of Utah's Master of Healthcare Administration program. The event was pretty fancy and I felt very out of place at first.
Luckily for me, I didn't have to do much. One of the current students recognized that I had an alumni name tag and came over to me. He was hopeful I could inspire him with my success story about how my MHA has really paid off in the real world. Boy was he surprised when I let him down. I'm just a regular Joe working as a health inspector. Well, I guess there is some relevance--I am currently Lab Director at the health department. This means I supervise 1 single employee, and when the State comes to do an audit, my butt is on the line--at least metaphorically. Anyway, I chatted with a few up-and-comings for a bit, and then saw a few former classmates enter the hall--even an old friend. The chat with my friend was interrupted by dinner (how dare they!) and then the program. The food was delicious, and despite my best efforts to load up on veggies and limit breads, etc. I still over ate, and then enjoyed the cheesecake that was in front of me. I have no self control. For those of you who don't know, I don't really care for cheesecake. So why did I eat it? Because it was small, looked decent enough, and the kid sitting next to me said it was amazing. Well, I had to at least taste amazing. He was right. It was light and fluffy, and the fresh berries gave it the perfect amount of flavor. "But you hate berries!" Yes, at least most of the time, I don't care for berries. But this cheesecake was delicious.
Enough about the food though--it was only a small part of the overall wonderful evening.
