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 Boiled Seed and Honesty

August 7, 2009October 20, 2010

A while back, I heard a rather innocuous story about honesty at stake conference (ok, so it’s not as prestigious as general conference…). I didn’t care much about the choice of story he used, since it seemed trite (it was some Chinese feel-good fable), but as I read a passage…

    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!
