I’m... COUNTING ON IT!

We switched to KC Disposal about a year ago, so my father kindly reminded me, “Trash pick up has been delayed one day.”

While I was going to respond, “I’m... COUNTING ON IT!” I responded in kind yet with less enthusiasm. Since his seat is in my unobstructed line of sight, I was not surprised his last day at work was Wednesday, nice strategy since Monday was a paid holiday. Secondarily, I realized I’m probably going to be waiting at least another month to actually be transferred to Overland Park administratively.

“Therefore, having put away falsehood,
let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor,
for we are members one of another. (Ephesians 4:25)”

This Podcast is uncalled For

“Concern grows for Tuesday storms, area placed in ‘enhanced’ risk,” meanwhile my friend Mike C and I met in downtown Overland Park and recorded an episode for his current project, “This Podcast is uncalled For.”

We talked geek culture, our history of improv (and formats like the Harold and Armando, and fellow players like D Denton Turley, Jack Shedd, and personalities like Jill Bernard), and ‘Star Trek,’ and later my father entreated, “We have coupons for Burger King if you want to go get some.”

“So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness,
faith, love, and peace, (2 Timothy 2:22)
along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.”

The Legend of the Galactic Heroes

“Long ago in a distant land,” a friend told me how Roger Ebert found Princess Mononoke, whose storytelling is similar to The Legend of the Galactic Heroes (which Bennigan and I began to enjoy), strongly recommended by Gigguk Anime Zone.

Responding to “The Death of Classic Anime,” Mother's Basement posted “Long Live Classic Anime.”

“Wait for the LORD; be strong, (Psalms 27:14)
and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD!”

Waspinator has plans... Part 6

For this weekend, Bennigan was getting ready to take a certification exam, so he was thinking:

A.) We hang out at my place and maybe you can help me with some studying and we can watch something,
B.) We just go see ‘Aladdin,’
C.) We take this weekend to ourselves.

Any choice is fine but my preference is on A. Could use some help memorizing a few things for the test. Have another one the week after as well but we are already seeing ‘Godzilla.’

Some day in the Rain

An episode of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya shares a title with this post, and a friend reacts, “Goodness, Chris. feel better,” to my long status:

Tornado warning here since 7:45. Sheltering in place from 7:45 to 8:15, almost to the minute. Wasn’t good for me to have my head that close to the floor, or to have gone outside to pick up my food from a nearby restaurant. I’m going home now because I’m starting to get sick, so I’m going to go to Perkins to have orange juice and some chicken noodle soup.

“Jesus said to her, (John 4:13-14)
‘Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again,
but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again.
The water that I will give him will become in him
a spring of water welling up to eternal life.’”

Before I was to meet Bennigan to see POKÉMON Detective Pikachu, Jessica entreated, “You up for getting together and do some things today,” and I was after I woke up.

Before I went to bed Saturday morning, Borderlands was streamed by a friend from his PlayStation 4. While they have relisted the job from “Love, lift us up where we Belong,” I am unable to reapply, so I consulted Denton, “How to Write a Resume in 7 Easy Steps.”

Summary of Improv Goals 043

While “Trapped in My Mind,” I discovered another
video from “Charisma on Command,” and realized:

The things learned in improv are helpful in everyday situations. A common language being used is positive energy and affirmation as necessary. “How to be Charming without Trying” ends as an advertisement. The series entered my suggested videos on YouTube with political pundits who illustrate how to win over an audience by acknowledging an argument, etc.

“This is the day that the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalms 118:24)”

John Robison, when certain players were not available, created Special Guest Star, someone from the audience would volunteer to be in a scene. No matter who John performed with on stage the set was always successful because John made the other person feel at ease by making them look good and feel good.

“So apparently,” reads a post from Andrea Libman, “it’s Pinkie Pie’s birthday today.. so Happy Birthday PP!” Last week, I was loathing myself, except when working and spending time with friends, but I was loathing myself while I was working, too. Hey, yeah, I was!

“Detective Pikachu review: The best video game movie ever, researchers say this video game can detect early stages of Alzheimer’s better than medical tests,” was not enough to turn me around — “Fallout 4 Gets a Sweet Anime Mod That Lets You Make Cute Characters and NPCs,” OMG, a friend  would be interested in this and I might become interested in this because of this. I am weak and have no defense against a moé mod for Fallout 4 ... except I get really unmotivated

“And he is before all things, (Colossians 1:17-18)
and in him, all things hold together.
And he is the head of the body, the church.
He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead,
that in everything he might be preeminent.”
