Awesome and Awkward Thursday

Time for a little awkward and awesome Thursday!

Awkward
Standing in the elevator with someone you don't know who doesn't even aknowledge your presence.  Usually people smile and say Hi, not this time.  He didn't say hi to me, and I got the feeling that if I said anything he was going to think I was hitting on him, so I acted like I didn't see him either. 

Having a conversation with a friend, thinking you are on the same page, then realizing that she REALLY wants a position you have been thinking about applying for, and that position might be created in such a way that she wouldn't be qualified, but you probably would be.  For the record, I haven't found a job that I want bad enough to risk a friendship over yet, so I would be more than happy for her to take it.

Old men patients that think it is ok to make sexually inappropriate comments and hit on me. I guess old lady patients doing the same thing would be even more awkward.

Going to church by yourself and sitting in the row with all the single women, There really isn't a good place for married people whose spouses are out of town to sit.

Awesome!
Singing with the multi-stake choir, I said it before, but the talent in that room is amazing, very humbling, but amazing.  I keep thinking someone is going to discover I am not in their league and kick me out, but they haven't and it is almost showtime, so that is awesome!

Being able to check off a whole bunch of things that have been on your to do list forever.

Working hard on something and having it come out just the way you wanted it to!
