Friday Night Lights the Hurt Locker

“This isn’t hanging out. This isn’t at all what I imagined.”
I wanna run through the halls of my high school,” and it’s not what I dreamed.
Drumline and matching band complete National Anthem, School Fight Song, and North Anthem and take their position to welcome our home team to the field.
“This isn’t what I wished for. This isn’t what I hoped.”
Not a good start, one of our players was injured, East Lancers are up 14, their band just played “The Imperial March,” and they just ran half the field for a third touchdown and extra point!?
This Word of the Day from Dictionary.com - atonement - satisfaction or reparation for a wrong or injury - - ain’t what I expected at all.
7 minutes left in the second quarter and the Shawnee Mission East Lancers were up 42 points to zero.
“The fear of the LORD is instruction in wisdom,
and humility comes before honor. (Proverbs 15:33)”

“No! I waited all my life... ...for this moment. And I’m not going to... ...let it slip by. If it’s the last thing I do... ...I’m gonna make this... ...the best night ever!”
I went to Arby’s where everybody knows my name; a meet-and-greet is at The Homesteader Cafe in the River Market tonight at 7.

Tonight is the Night to tailgate ahead of the homecoming game during the weekend of my 20th high school reunion.

Don’t Think I Don’t Think about It 006

‘The Jonathan Wier Show’s something I have missed since I started working with my current company. Wednesday I listened to a portable HD radio receiver; it was sublime.

Take another look Ahead, Part 2

To build on the success of yesterday, I also went to sleep about an hour after I got home today. I had more errands for this morning, yet realized what I had pretty much decided last week, ‘Damn the work on Friday! Full speed ahead to the Reunion!’

Postscript to Experiment 653

“As you can tell, I’ve already written to my blog for the day,” which can be good, bad, mediocre, or unnecessary, “so I’m going to bed fairly soon,” I entreated my friend, “which means I could wake up somewhat early if you had errands to run or something.”
The Never-ending pasta bowl at Olive Garden was something we had not done in a year, I’d looked; howeverBeing Scott Malkinson, later in the night my eyes are watery and I sneezed more than usual.
“And he said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ (Matthew 22:37-39)”

I don’t want to talk about ‘It’

For me, Sunday is when I stay up to watch Outlaw Star and Cowboy Bebop on Toonami on Cartoon Network, enjoy a $5 Sunday Chicken Dinner with a drink for a limited time at participating Sonic Drive-In stores and hang with Josh.

Toward flecked 015, Shakespeare of Selene

Seriously, Jack Van Impe Presents continues to air, “‘Researcher’ says this Saturday will be the end of the world,” yet new DuckTales on Disney XD is brought to you by Aflac.
“‘For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are open to their prayer. (1 Peter 3:12-13)
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.’
Now, who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good?”
For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
Luna is love by Krrrokozjabrra
The story of the ‘end of the world’ on Saturday has changed -- well, sort of,” so I need to concede some things from Bridget Jones’s Diary:
  • I am deeply conflicted
  • My 20-year high school reunion is next weekend
  • I’ll have vacation time, been with the company a year
  • Vacation time is not awarded until the pay period following the anniversary
  • I could use unpaid time and an occurance to attend the Homecoming game
  • I would short myself about a hundred dollars
  • Financial ramifications would be felt for a month
  • I must choose by Thursday

Summer Wars

For me, Bruce Springsteen will never be as boss as the soundtrack to Digimon: The Movie, a film whose writer retained the rights to the story and made Summer Wars; the same thing happened with Never Say Never Again whose is plot basically identical to Thunderball. In both films, actions online almost cause nuclear annihilation.

Break My Stride

Tuesday’s “International Talk Like a Pirate Day,” when I was visibly lollygagging (I was not moving with any particular sense of urgency) which led to a discussion.
Fortunately, I already realized this from ‘Star Trek: Voyager’ earlier on BBC America; a lack of discipline and focus is really not befitting of my new position, so I need to conduct myself with purpose.

Born to be Alive

Fortnightly has become the right interval to see Bennigan and we watched at least two thought-provoking videos, which might have language.
Pocahontas Was a Mistake, and Here’s Why!
The first is from Lindsay Ellis, to whom I was introduced by “Nostalgia Chick - Transformers: The Movie (1986),” and the second from Digibro, “How to Recognize a Terrible Anime (in just one episode),” who discussed GATE.

Jimmy Kimmel Live

We don’t care, we aren’t caught up in your love affair,” so I will continue to work nights since no opening monologue on Jimmy Kimmel Live, especially when he cries about gorillas or lions, is relevant or entertaining.
“If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels but have not love,
I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
And if I have prophetic powers,
and understand all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.
If I give away all I have, (1 Corinthians 13:1-3)
and if I deliver up my body to be burned,
but have not love, I gain nothing.”

Good Love is Hard to Find

Wednesday I went to bed late, like four in the morning on Thursday, only awoken by a text from my father at 12:30 in the afternoon, “Did you know that you have a low tire?”
Good love is hard to find / You got lucky,”
since the repair was only thirty dollars.

Stale zaniness 062

The Kansas City Renaissance Festival, Santa Cali Gon Days Festival or American Royal Barbeque Open happen Labor Day, while my father, sister and I watched the Back to the Future Trilogy, other times we might choose My Cousin Vinny.
A petite blonde at work has glasses, a bow in her long wavy hair, an impeccable sense of fashion and a boyfriend (she and I had talked before, once), boots; tonight, in passing and going to my car, she oddly taps her foot during the conversation among her friends to which one friend remarks, “Was that supposed to be, like, your BIOLOGICAL CLOCK TICKING?”

I was thinking to myself, “could have been more like circadian rhythm,” yet I would have liked to have said with staircase wit, “at least we know she can count.” which might have gotten me kneed in the Canucks, but the world will never know.

“Things have certainly changed around here. I remember when this was all farmland as far the eye could see,” since my father, sister and I were off work yesterday (my father is technically retired), we were watching ‘Back to the Future.’
Training for my new position is half complete,
yet with this revelation came another,
I will be working for “My Next Thirty Years.”

A Bad Reflection on You, Part 1

For some time, I’ve been concerned about keeping up appearances, playing a role or doing things that I believe others would have me do.
Thursday evening as I was leaving work, I unlocked my car, which activated the four-way lights and startled some people standing nearby, one of whom I've known for a while and ladies who had only started recently.
(Personally, I don’t like when a horn set to honk whenever doors are locked or unlocked remotely; the sound scares me more than irritates me, and my car only horns when I twice press to lock, so I have not changed the setting.)
The person who had known me for a while confronted me and I replied, “I don’t care,” after one of the ladies reiterated my statement, he incredulously exclaimed my name.
“Difficulties with friends or loved ones may result from an overconfident, frank, or outspoken attitude,” someone once told me.
To make a flashy departure after I reversed, missing the source and track, I fiddled with the stereo controls in vain for another half minute. How embarrassing!

Songs for the Deaf

Queens of the Stone Age’s Songs for the Deaf Is Still Great,” asserts Vulture, and I’m not familiar with this work, which sounds like a fundraising album.
Speaking of which, I accepted a friend request from someone who has a campaign on GoFundMe, “Support the India Gospel Mission,” and I donated on my birthday, yet I really would rather not be bothered on Messenger each time I’m on Facebook for another donation, so I have blocked the gentleman.
“And Jesus came and said to them,
‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son
and of the Holy Spirit, (Matthew 28:18-20)
teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.
And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’”
