Wake Me Up, when September Ends

Tomorrow I will be at the Japan festival no earlier than 11 o’clock
“Then the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night.
Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

Daniel answered and said: ‘Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
to whom belong wisdom and might.
He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings;
he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding;
he reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness,
and the light dwells with him.
To you, O God of my fathers,
I give thanks and praise, (Daniel 2:19-23)
for you have given me wisdom and might,
and have now made known to me what we asked of you,
for you have made known to us the king’s matter.’”

funny sad vampire

An image on Happy Halloween inspired the title to this post.
Also, two commericals on the radio bother me lately.
While they may have meant worldwide, they simply said 350 million suffered from depression, which equals the population of the United States, so basically everyone in this nation is depressed.

Another said we could experience excitement of the Rio Games in a Kia Rio. Seriously, they said that.

grace abounded all the more, (Romans 5:20-21)

Postscript to Experiment 644

Three friends on Facebook share brithdays today, which is not unusual, sometimes as many as five friends do, yet I know Chanté, Jessica, and Michael in person.
“Remember your mercy, O LORD,
and your steadfast love, (Psalms 25:6-7)

When I broke from my usual format Saturday, someone liked my post, perhaps I should have yesterday, but I didn’t leave myself enough time to format the partisan diatribe the way I wanted.
Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to your steadfast love remember me,
for the sake of your goodness, O LORD!”

Debate Night

10 Awesome and Intelligent Things You Can Do Tonight Instead of Watching the Debate
“And whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them.
I kept my heart from no pleasure,
for my heart found pleasure in all my toil,
and this was my reward for all my toil. (Ecclesiastes 2:10-11)

and there was nothing to be gained under the sun.”

Laundry Week in Review

Friday I was listening to Midday with Jayme and Wickett, and they returned from commercial with a truly awful parody where “First World Problems” replaced the refrain from “Zoot Suit Riot.” Among my first world problems, I will not be able to listen to the Jonathan Weir Show live again because I will be working away from a radio.
I always leave some stuff out, like Wednesday was the International Day of Peace, and I gave the world silence on my blog thus some peace. I’ve done laundry every day this week because the weather has been so warm I need to wear my lighter work shirt.
I learned two things from the Jonathan Weir Show:
  1. Weir and Rob Babcock will appear at the 10 o’clock show at the Kick Comedy Theater on Saturday night; they will be telling personal stories to inspire scenes for the improvisers.

  2. I really hope to be off work so I can see that show, but not the same way these people found themselves off work.

Here Comes the Sunday

Yes, this post is titled after a song by The Beatles, and I am reflecting on my last day at the new pizza place, which will be Sunday.
Last Saturaday was bad, and Wednesday was worse. Similar to my most recent time at Arby’s, I’m just tired of new management, “a Condescending Message from Hollywood.”
“One thing have I asked of the LORD, (Psalms 27:4)
that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in his temple.”

because you do not lay it to heart.”

Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’

Last Tuesday I donated blood and became a Word of the Day at Dictionary.com - cosset: to treat as a pet; pamper; coddle. I was offered a one-week pass to the gym.

but only one receives the prize?

After next week, I will no longer be able to hear ‘The Jonathan Wier Show’ live, and today I will miss a remote broadcast of ‘Dana & Parks’ from Coco Bolos Wood-Fired Grill & Cantina, but also a reunion of the class of 1996 from Shawnee Mission North, although technically I was in the following class.

A second out of Phase 032

Classes for the Shawnee Mission School District were not in session last Friday, so I visited my friend Aaron on Thursday night, and stayed until three o’clock in the morning to explain ‘Star Trek First Contact’ airing on Syfy.

Storms are Bruins in your Eyes

The existential despair of Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump
“In hope he believed against hope, (Romans 4:18-21)
that he should become the father of many nations,

He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body,
which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old),
or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah’s womb.

Whirlwind weekend 027

When I was going to Independence, Missouri, I unequivocally say I found a Word of the Day at Dictionary.com - vagarious: erratic; capricious; characterized by vagaries.
Friday, Sunday, and Monday, I gave a ride to a friend to Independence for Santa Cali Gon Days Festival. Many reviews say the festival has declined in attendance and quality; the price for vendor spaces has increased, and fewer people are dressing in historical attire.

The Grand Illusion

Kansas City’s Classic Rock Station, 101 the Fox is counting down the top five hundred songs, as submitted online by listeners, and tabulated by the on-air personalities; music I have never heard continues to amaze, and title my post.
