This postJust a quickie tonight, as it’s almost bedtime. Two things. First, go read Orson Scott Card’s short story “Homeless in Hell.” Now. It’s really good.
Second, I was planning on going to the temple at 7 this morning (which would mean leaving at 6:30 because the buses don’t run that early), but toward the end of my scripture study I could not keep my eyes open. I usually finish studying at 6:00, but I kept drifting in and out of sleep until I finally broke out of it at 7. Just as I started making breakfast — and remember that this is when I would have already been in the temple — I got a phone call from one of the girls in my ward, saying her roommate was really sick and they wanted me and one of my roommates to come over and give her a blessing before they took her to the hospital. Why me? Because they knew I’d be awake. :) Anyway, the Lord works in mysterious ways. At least I don’t feel so guilty about falling asleep like that anymore. :) (And if it was pure happenstance, I still see no problem with assigning it value like I’ve done here.)
I’ve started taking pictures again after a hiatus of several weeks, by the way. I guess I’m not much of a cold-weather photographer. But today has been nice and warm. I can’t wait for spring. :)
