Sunday in Outer Blogness: deferred edition…

chanson, August 22, 2015August 22, 2015

Hey folks, on Sunday I’ll be visiting Milan — hanging out with my sister who is on vacation in Italy — and I have a day-trip planned for next Sunday as well. So I’d like to do a middle-of-two-weeks edition on Wednesday to make up for missing these two Sundays. Thanks for your patience! 😀

The 8 things I’d like to ask

November 12, 2015November 12, 2015

I know…I have resigned my membership. So why do I care about the new Mormon church policy update that impacts LGBT Mormons? Why bother stressing about it if I don’t even belong or believe? Because this was my faith community for 46 years. Because it was how I was raised. Because…

    Thanks, I had a great time!!

    It’s actually kind of awesome that it’s so simple to do a day trip to Milan from here. I had to leave my house at 6:30, and got back a little after 11 p.m. — and I spent more time in transit than I did in Milan — but still. The train trip itself it pretty relaxing, so all-in-all it makes for a fun day!
