Okay, first off, I'm just wondering why I've received so little emails? This is the bulk of what everyone writes me. Hmm. That's okay though, just making sure everyone is okay, or that they have Internet.

Second thing. Yesterday was transfers so today is P-Day. I'll also be emailing next Thursday as well because Wednesday is Zone Conference. Friday is also an Area Conference and Elder Christiansen from the Quorum of the Seventy will be speaking.

So I'm still in my area. I got a new companion though. He's like me as in he's a geek like me. So we hit it off right from the start. He IS tall though, so that's kind of a bummer.

This past week has been pretty cool. The only problem is I can't remember anything that happened...

Uh... so yesterday Elder Huffaker (Huff-Faker) and I had a meeting with this Catholic girl named Jenny. I'd like to say we had a Lesson with her but it was more just talking and bashing. I didn't do any bashing though. I stayed quiet practically the whole time except for when I bore my testimony.

She wants to learn more about the church but she's set in her Catholic ways. Needless to say, I walked out of her home with a headache.

We then had dinner with a man named Chef Toney (Chef is his title). His food was so delicious... and this is coming from a guy who used to live off of Ramen and canned corn. I could have gotten fat off of his steak.

After that, we had a correlation meeting with one of our stakes where there's slim to none mission work going on there. I was surprised when two of the Ward Mission Leaders ACTUALLY showed up. Elder Dyer and I have been doing a lot of work in their area lately to try and get mission work fired up. Now it seems that the fruits of our labors are finally starting to appear.

So that's all I pretty much have to say. Oh, and in the Pioneer Day Parade (or whatever else it's called) I saw President Eyring. I was on the wrong side of the street though and got Sister Eyring mainly in the picture.

So hope to hear from everyone soon. Later.
