The Night Before (Laundry Day)

Much has changed in my life over the last year and I have been reviewing my actions and concluded:

Morpheus: No, what happened, happened, and couldn’t have happened any other way.
Neo: How do you know?
Morpheus: We are still alive.

“So faith comes from hearing and hearing through the word of Christ. (Romans 10:17)”

“I wanna tell you something, Mark, something you do not yet know, that we K-PAXians have been around long enough to have discovered. The universe will expand, then it will collapse back on itself, then will expand again. It will repeat this process forever. What you don’t you know is that when the universe expands again, everything will be as it is now. Whatever mistakes you make this time around, you will live through on your next pass. Every mistake you make, you will live through again, & again, forever. So my advice to you is to get it right this time around. Because this time is all you have.”

Reflections of

When one is home day after day, recovering from injuries and unable to work, the days can tend to blend together and one can lose perspective. For many years, I have battled depression, and questioned my worth, finding little value to others, yet today was a day that reminded me in small ways about the significance of life.

My mother, my father, and youngest sister passed away in recent years, and my surviving sister contacted me Wednesday about getting their cremated remains to me; this task was accomplished today in the briefest and most neutral way possible, I had no real opportunity to invite her to stay for any length of time to visit about any kind of reconciliation or any kind for which I might have been hoping. Whether forced or subtly implied, any secondary agenda is not a successful way to make any progress in a strained relationship. Having weekly conversations with an aunt and an uncle on my father’s side, I had some support before my sister visited today; I can be kind and not belittle myself or perceive this as a failure.

Please consider watching “Mushoku Tensei is ART,” a Japanese animated program whose main character with whom I certainly empathized when I question my own worth.

Sing ‘Blue Monday’ for Me

Rearranging furniture, I have been watching copious amounts of YouTube, “Wet Dream – Kip Addotta,” of Dr. Demento fame, “Blue Monday (2016 Remaster),” recognizable from Wonder Woman 1984 and Top Gear, and “Spring Anime 2020 in a Nutshell”

I’m placing a chest of drawers underneath my secondary monitor, a move that blocked an electrical outlet, so I connected the power cable from the power strip to another electrical outlet underneath the desk, which was a fun spectacle, pop pop! 🙂

Happy 40th birthday, f***** (Thanks, bro)

“With a Little Help from My Friends,” one of my friends, Travis turned 40 Friday, and he was happy to hear from me (Thanks, bro)

Difficulties with systems persisted so I can say in retrospect that I made the right choice to leave work early on Thursday and I was emotionally moved by episodes of Violet Evergarden.

“For to set the mind on the flesh is death, (Romans 8:6-8)
but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.
For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God,
for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot.
Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.”

“Covid19 is a serious threat. If you don’t know that by now, then you never will. Fear is not what we need. Fear can be useful when an immediate response to danger is needed. In the long term, fear can be debilitating and counterproductive. Fear can cause people to irrational things. What is needed is cautious, rational behavior.”

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. (Hebrews 12:1-2)”

(In These Small Hours)

To let out the dogs, I woke up about 2 and ½ hours earlier than usual and ended up speaking to an independent contractor, John, who was installing shingles on a shed at a neighbor’s house to the north.

Always be aware of the direction of the prevailing winds in your area when installing shingles; unless your county is a ‘participating community,’ regardless of its location on a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), your property may not be eligible.

After seeing Meet the Robinsons (In These Small Hours) and ParaNorman on Disney XD and a stop at Goodcents Deli Fresh Subs, I visited Bennigan, and watched an episode of Do You Love Your Mom and Her Two-Hit Multi-Target Attacks? (FUNimation), Sleepwalkers, Addams Family Values, and Best of the Worst: Wheel of the Worst #20.

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.”
