Thursday Night Mini Thoughts

It’s the fastest-growing weekly series in the entire history of this blog:

– You know how we do this.
– So let’s get this party started.
– Complete sentences not required here.
– It was another interesting and exciting day at work.
– I even got into heated discussions with one of my closest coworkers.
– It’s all good.
– My worst day on this journey – far greater than my best day beforehand.
– I love going to work in the morning.
– I’ve been able to state that for only the past 20½ months.
– My career renaissance began at the end of July 2007.
– That’s when I moved from my previous job to my current job.
– I physically moved one-tenth of one mile south to my current job.
– The difference is that of night and day – dark and light – evil and good.
– Dear Lord I pray to you that I don’t spend any money at all next Monday.
– I currently have one of the largest VI$A bills in modern recorded history.
– The cold air outside is almost gone, and my A.C. is back on again.
– We hit 52°F early this morning with an identical wind chill.
– It was 53°F early on Wednesday morning with a wind chill in the 40s.
– Get ready for the mid-80s to return this weekend and stay indefinitely.
– We’re gearing up for a busy Easter Sunday at Life Pointe Church.
– This is the Sunday that you need to wake up early and get to the theatre.
– Gather up the crew, stuff them into the soccer-mom minivan, and get there.
– I can’t wait to see Ela before the first service.
– Ela is one of God’s many miracles.
– Here’s a video for a song that I discovered quite early on during this journey.
– It’s from Watashi Wa.
– They were from Southern California.
– They were together as a band from 2000 to 2004.
– They were rather dysfunctional as a band.
– They loved Jesus.
– They managed to release this gem during the Summer Of 2003.
– I was far from God during that Summer.
– Watch this video and listen intently to what the’re singing.
– I’m not a lot, but you can have “All Of Me”.

Wednesday Quotable

Every single Wednesday from the end of June 2008 through the start of April 2009 my good friend LL Phil J / The Citizen Cane posted a ‘Wednesday Quotable’ over on his award-winning blog. It’s one of his few original ideas. 😆 (I joke.)

Just because he’s livin’ it up out on the high seas and his blog is on temporary hiatus doesn’t mean that we need to be without a ‘Wednesday Quotable’, so I present to you a collection of 5 fine quotes to keep you thinking until P.J. returns back to the blogosphere with his own quote(s) next Wednesday:

– Live as though Christ died yesterday, rose from the grave today, and is coming back tomorrow. (Theodore Epp)

– A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, ‘darkness’ on the walls of his cell. (C.S. Lewis)

– Here, then, is the real problem of our negligence. We fail in our duty to study God’s Word not so much because it is difficult to understand, not so much because it is dull and boring, but because it is work. Our problem is not a lack of intelligence or a lack of passion. Our problem is that we are lazy. (R.C. Sproul)

– Be assured, if you walk with Him and look to Him, and expect help from Him, He will never fail you. (George Mueller)

– Never underestimate Jesus, because He will just prove you wrong. (Brian Gurney)

Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts

A Tuesday night tradition since 2007 continues …

1.  It’s a chilly day in April here in America’s Riviera. We didn’t even crack the 75°F mark this afternoon, and temperatures early tomorrow morning should plummet into the upper-40s !  It’ll be another chilly day tomorrow too (below 75°F again).

2.  It’s hard to believe that just 24 hours ago it was nearly 90°F outside (and in my living room as well). Next month 90°F will be a normal afternoon here, and our unusually long and chilly winter season will be a distant memory.

3.  Hopefully we won’t be talking much about these boys and girls later this year – Ana, Bill, Claudette, Danny, Erika, Fred, Grace, Henri, Ida, Joaquin, Kate, Larry, Mindy, etc., etc., etc.

4.  ‘Hey Chris – Why are you all dressed up today ?’  I got that several times at work today. It happens every time I go out to the stores and treat myself to new clothes (which doesn’t happen very often). It’s all good. I’m sharp like that. 8)

5.  I know that I’ve been putting this off since essentially last September (when my previous longtime Doctor disappeared into thin air), but I still need to search for a General Family Practice Doctor here in the greater Homestead area. I’m looking for a regular male M.D. that speaks and understands fluent English that is within about 10 years of my age. He obviously needs to be able to accept new customers (some don’t) as well as accept bonafide certified genuine BCBS medical insurance. Send me any legitimate tips that you may have. I’m approaching my 42ND birthday. Elvis Presley died of the mother of all MASSIVE heart attacks at the ripe young age of 42. Need I say more ?
