Me & My Muse – Day 2183: Summer Leftovers Done Quick

Having stayed up so late last night, this Sunday will be a little different from the usual fare.  The week long charity stream was a success, and over $3 million was raised for Doctors Without Borders.

This morning, I did my devotionals and read through the next four chapters of 1 Chronicles.  It wrapped up Saul’s genealogy, talked about the Judean exiles, another brief genealogy of Saul, the Israelites annointing David as king in Hebron, David’s conquest of Jerusalem, and the heroic deeds, exploits. and complete list of David’s Mighty Men.

In having the remainder of the day, I will use this to catch up on some speedruns that I missed over the course of the week.  I will then get ready for tomorrow.  That is pretty much this day in summary.

Today’s high is going to be 81 degrees and the silver lining is being able to catch up on some speed runs today.

To those of you who are enjoying this Sunday, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  *yawn*  That event was fun last night.  Just a little bit more rest… *snore*

Me & My Muse – Day 2182: Summer Post Done Quick

With it being Saturday, I’m currently in the midst of a speed run for this day.  To optimize the best results for this run, I have taken preliminary measures.  Everything’s ready to go and I’m leaving for Grand Rapids at 5:30 a.m. or sooner.

From there, I will attend a Toastmasters TLI in Grand Rapids from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 pm.  When that is over, the rest of the day will be chill.

After the training, I will use the best routing to get home in time to watch the end of a charity stream.

For the quickest strats, I’m going to end this entry rather quickly.  Time will be called after the last line of dialogue from my Muse.  Everyone get ready!

Today’s high is going to be 85 degrees and the silver lining is enjoying this day off.

To those of you who like watching charity events, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

*Zoria 50000 transforms into Muse*

Muse:  You’re watching SGDQ?  I think I’ll donate some money myself!  I can’t wait until Chrono Trigger!  ^_^

And TIME!

Me & My Muse – Day 2181: Friday Flush

To recap, the weather has been quite stormy today.  It started with a torrential downpour and now it’s just cloudy.

With my work week done, it’s actually going to be a little different this weekend.  I’m going to bed early since I’m getting up early for a TLI in Grand Rapids that will last all day.  It’s 2 hours to get there and it starts at 8:00 in the morning.  It ends at 4:30 in the afternoon.  So that’s most of my weekend right there already.

Time to use these last two hours wisely before bed.  Time for dinner!

Today’s high is going to be 87 degrees and the silver lining is the weekend finally being here.

To those of you who are enjoying this Friday, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  That rain was crazy, but it’s not as bad as the rain at home.  Not only does it rain hard, the rain is acidic.  Thankfully, Zorpozian skin has adapted to the rain’s acidity.  I think I’ll have something to eat myself.  I’m starving!

Me & My Muse – Day 2180: Turning up the Heat

As I am typing this, it is very hot outside.  Compared to the other days this month, this has been the hottest day so far.

For my trip home, I had to have the fan on full blast.

So what’s the plan for today?  With Friday in the horizon, everything is all ready for tomorrow.  I will now play a little more of my game before calling it a night.

I will also resume work on my story soon, so stay tuned.

Today’s high is going to be 88 degrees and the silver lining is being able to stay cool in this warm weather.

To those of you are enjoying this hot Thursday, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  It is pretty hot outside.  But it’s not as hot as it can get at home.  Some areas of my home planet can get really hot.  Especially near the volcanoes.  Time to go inside…

Me & My Muse – Day 2179: Happy Hour

When I finished work today, it was time for happy hour, minus the alcohol, of course since I don’t drink.

After work, I attended a happy hour at Big E’s hosted by one of my employee resource groups at work.  It was fun.  I spoke to a few people and had some food.

Now finished with that event, I will now get ready for tomorrow.  Check back tomorrow for more updates!

Today’s high is going to be 83 degrees and the silver lining was going to tonight’s happy hour.

To those of you who like socializing after work, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  Why would you choose only one hour to be happy?  I’m guessing that it has to do with those beverages with alcohol that you don’t want to drink.  I’m still learning your traditions so bear with me!

Me & My Muse – Day 2178: Chill Tuesday

Having finished my workday for today, my schedule is actually open for the rest of the day.  This is a rarity on Tuesdays.

Having that said, it’s going to be a very chill Tuesday this week.   With the exception of outside, since it’s actually pretty warm today.  The only chills I’ll be feeling is from the air conditioning inside.  Time to unwind and get ready for tomorrow.

Today’s high is going to be 80 degrees and the silver lining is being able to enjoy this Tuesday afternoon.

To those of you who are enjoying this Tuesday, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  A chill day?  Isn’t that something that’s cold?  It could be slang for relaxed.  You did explain some slang to me.  Your earth slang is weird…

Me & My Muse – Day 2177: Monsoon…

Okay.  It’s not really a monsoon.  But with all the rain that there has been this June, it definitely feels like one.

Now finished with work, I’m just going to take it easy today.  I will mostly like try to get to bed early, since I feel tired today.  Time to take a breather.

Today’s high is going to be 79 degrees and the silver lining is being able to stay dry inside.

To those of you who are tired of the rain, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  I don’t like all the rain that we’ve been having either.  I wish that it could stop…

Me & My Muse – Day 2176: Toy Story 4 Encore

Having already seen Toy Story 4 yesterday (and it was amazing by the way), I will be seeing it again with some friends in the afternoon.  Besides that, I am just going to take it easy for the remainder of the day.  That’s pretty much it.

Today’s high is going to be 80 degrees and the silver lining is being able to see Toy Story 4 again.

To those of you who like seeing movies multiple times in the theaters, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  Again?  I’m coming!  The first time was amazing.  I can’t wait to see it again!

Me & My Muse – Day 2175: Toy Story 4

Words cannot describe how excited I am to see the movie tonight!  From what I understand, this is the last one.  Something very big happens in this one.  I don’t know what it is, and I’ll keep quiet when I do.

In the meantime, I am just going to get ready to the day and enjoy my Saturday.  That is pretty much this day in summary.

Today’s high is going to be 76 degrees and the silver lining is being able to see Toy Story 4 tonight.

To those of you who like seeing epic movies, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  This is a special event!  I will break character today to see it with him.  *Muse removes Zoria 50000 costume*  Time to see the first three Toy Stories one last time.  Oh, I can’t wait until tonight!

Me & My Muse – Day 2174: Friday: Summer Edition

To kick off the first day of summer, I was able to finish my last day of the week for work. With that done, had my WebEx meeting to discuss a duel job transfer of Area Director and VP of Education in Toastmasters.

I will now continue playing my game, so that should be fun.

Time to wrap this up.

Today’s high is going to be 76 degrees and the silver lining is it being the weekend and the first day of summer.

To those of you who are glad that summer arrived, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000: Summer?  From what you told me about it, it sounds like a pretty fun season!  Time to make some lemonade and enjoy a nice book!

Me & My Muse – Day 2173: Wet and Weary

Considering that the weather is wet outside and I’m tired from working today, that’s what we have for a title today.

And just to give you advance notice, this entry is not going to be that long today.

 

Zoria 50000:  Hi!

Oh.  Hi!  What are you doing here?

Zoria 50000:  I figured it out.  In falling asleep, I was able to enter your dreams!

Why are you doing this?  I need some place to escape to…

Zoria 50000: Why not?  I’m sick of the cabin fever.  Aren’t you just tired of being stuck on the Zinkez 7546 Enterprise?  Out of boredom, I decided to figure out how to access your dreams so here I am!  So, where do I live in this dream version of your world?

Nowhere.  Instead of you, my Muse would normally be here.  So you would live where my Muse lives, I guess.

Zoria 50000: And where would that be?

The Realm of Imagination.  She has a house there.  It’s kind of hard to miss.

Zoria 50000:  Hmm…Now that you mention it, I do have some of her memories.  Ah…her house…I think I know where it is.  I’m going to check it out.  Thanks Kyle!

*Zoria 50000 vanishes in a beam of light*

That’s interesting.  At least she doesn’t have to wake me up out of this dream.

Anyway, I’m ready to take it easy and chill for the rest of the day.

Today’s high is going to be 68 degrees and the silver lining is getting a lot of things done today.

To those of you who had a productive Thursday today, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  There it is!  Her house!

*Zoria 50000 enters house*

Muse:  Who are you?  What are you doing here?  This is my house!

Zoria 50000:  And this is Kyle’s dream!  For some reason, I feel like we’re connected.  Return to where you belong!

Muse:  What’s going on?  Whoa!

*Muse fades into a pale ghostly form and gets sucked into Zoria 50000 like a vacuum*

Zoria 50000:  There.  That’s better.  Time to make myself at home here…

Me & My Muse – Day 2172: Gathering at the Park

I had a rather realistic dream last night.

In the dream, I got ready for work and worked my normal work day.  After that, I went to a gathering with my Life Group at the park.  When I was done with that, I came home and got ready for bed.

 

Zoria 50000:  And then we returned to reality, where you spent the entire day with me!

That’s right.  It was a fun day.  I’m hoping that we can land another planet soon.  All this time on the ship is driving me crazy.

Zoria 50000:  I know.  I talked to Pix 700 and Zinka 620 about it, and they’ll see if we can land on another planet soon.

Good.  Time to call it a day.

Today’s high is going to be 74 degrees and the silver lining is being able to hang out with others today (in my dream).

To those of you who like gathering together with friends, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  I’m glad that he didn’t oversleep today.  We’ll see what he does tomorrow…

Me & My Muse – Day 2171: White Flight

Having finished work for the day, I just came back from picking up my white car: the Toyota Camry that I dropped off last week.

With that car back and work done for the day, I am now going to get ready for tonight’s Toastmasters meeting.  That’s pretty much for toda…

 

Zoria 50000: Kyle!  You’re doing it again!  Do you have a sleeping problem?  You have been sleeping a lot lately…

*yawn*  I don’t know what the problem is, but I had a good dream.  It felt so real.  It almost felt like reality…

Zoria 50000: Could it be that you’re tethered between two realities?  Sometimes I struggle with that when I try to dream myself back to my point of origin.  Well, I’ll let you finish your “post” for your “audience”.  We’ll talk more in a bit.  I’ll see you in the dining room.  Bye!

*Zoria 50000 teleports to the dining room*

Time to wrap this up.  *yawn*  Now I’m in my bedroom again.  I’ll wrap this up before Zoria 50000 wakes me up again.  I have Toastmasters tonight.  After that, I’ll be having dinner at Taco Bell.  That’s pretty much this day in a nutshell.

Today’s high is going to be 76 degrees and the silver lining is getting my Toyota Camry back.

To those of you who like driving their favorite car, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  I hope that he’s coming soon.  Will I have to wake him up again?  *sigh*  I surely hope not…

Me & My Muse – Day 2170: Car Wash

With work done for the day, I was able to go and get a car wash.

Now home, I will now call it…

 

Zoria 50000: Wake up!

Huh? What?

Zoria 50000: You have been sleeping all day!  Is there anything wrong, Kyle?

Not that I know of.  I did have a weird dream.  I woke up and I got ready for work.  I got a car wash and came home.  Then you woke me up.

Zoria 50000:  Dreaming of Earth again?

How could I not?  I really miss that planet.

Zoria 50000: I know that you miss it.  We’ll get back there.  And I’ll get to see it for the first time!  I’m excited!  Let’s go get something to eat, okay?

Okay.  Time to wrap this up…

Zoria 50000: *sigh*  Fine.  Do what you need to.  I’ll be in the dining room, okay?  See you in a little bit!

*Zoria 50000 teleports to dining room*

Getting back to what I was saying, I now have a clean car.  I wonder what I’ll dream of tomorrow?

Today’s high is going to be 70 degrees and the silver lining is having a clean car.

To those of you who like getting car washes, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  I know how he feels.  I miss home, too.  Just last night, I dreamt that I was on Zorpoz.  I had to dream myself back on the ship, of course!  Having the ability to make dreams real is dangerous! Phew!

Me & My Muse – Day 2169: Happy Father’s Day!

What are you doing reading this? Everyone. Go to your father, give him a nice big hug or high five and tell him that you love him very much. If your father is not with you anymore, my condolences.

Still there? I mean it. Now is not the time to read this daily blog. Spend it with your father. As for me, I did this by going to church with my dad and family and having brunch at my grandparents with my family, grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins. Now, it is time for me to spend Father’s Day with my dad.

Still reading this? Enough already. Give dad your card if you haven’t already. Give him the watch and tell him that he’s the best dad in the world. And stop reading this entry. There’s not anything left to read. Really!

Today’s high is going to be 68 degrees and the silver lining is celebrating Father’s Day.

To those of you who absolutely love their fathers, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

Muse: I wish that I could talk to him. At least I can talk to my dad…wait! Where is my dad?

Me & My Muse – Day 2168: Saturday Shower

A shower in two different senses.  Today, it’s going to be rainy.  That is the first shower.

But the more important shower is about to start soon.  That is my sister’s baby shower.  With the event typically consisting of just women, I am just staying home and taking it easy.

 

I will now wrap this up…

 

Muse:  I’m going to it.

No you’re not.  As far as I understand, this is still a dream.  I am guessing that Dark Zoria is very powerful by now.

Muse:  This is not a dream, Kyle.  Come to your senses!

Do you want any more proof that this is a dream?  For starters, you are not my Muse.  You are Zoria 50000!

*Muse transforms into Zoria 50000*

Zoria 50000:  Okay.  You got me.  I was pretending to be your Muse the whole time!

And you know what?  Since this is a dream, I can get my one privilege back.  Dark Zoria?

*Dark Zoria appears*

Dark Zoria:  No!  It’s mine!  Tee hee!

Well, too bad.  Because this is my dream and you’re giving it back!

*One Privilege flows out of Dark Zoria and into me*

And now, all the damage that Dark Zoria caused outside this dream is repaired.   Everything is back to normal and Zoria 50000 is rescued from the Zendians.  One Privilege, ENGAGE!

Zoria 50000:  Perhaps you should wake up now.

I should.  This dream has been going on for too long…

*wakes up*

Zoria 50000:  Kyle!  I thought you would never wake up!

You’re back!  Safe from the hands of the Zendians.

Zoria 50000: I know.  That was weird!  One moment, I’m in the hands of the Zendians and then I black out!  And then I’m captured by them again and now I’m back at this ship!  I can’t remember anything that happened since the blackout.

I can.  The Dark Muse entered you and began absorbing everyone’s power.  I was in a coma for a very long time and had a long dream where you pretended to be my Muse.  I used the dream to get my One Privilege back.  I made everything back to normal and now you’re safe!

Zoria 50000:  That’s good to hear.  Now let’s continue the voyage back to earth.  You have told me so many good things about it.  I can’t wait to get there!

It is a good place.  Believe me…

Zoria 50000:  Well, I’m going to get ready.  You should get ready too so we can talk.  Talk to you in a bit, Kyle!

*Zoria 50000 leaves room to get a shower*

Well, I’m finally awake in this young teenage body again.  I’m still trying to get over all the hormonal changes.  Did I actually have to deal with this when I was this young?  I can’t remember!

Anyway, in my dream, my sister had a baby shower.  I can’t wait to see what I dream of next!

Today’s high is going to be 68 degrees and the silver lining is enjoying this quiet Saturday to myself.

To those of you who are enjoying this weekend so far, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Zoria 50000:  That was weird.  I can’t remember anything that happened during that blackout.  I wish I could remember.  *sigh*  Anyway, time for that shower!

*Zoria 50000 turns shower to the hottest setting and steps in*

Me & My Muse – Day 2167: Another Weekend Begins

With another work week under my belt, another weekend is here once again.  My laundry is in the washer and I’m doing the weekend unwind.

Got your favorite snack?  Ready to do your favorite hobby?  Good.  So am I.  It’s time that we get this weekend started!

Today’s high is going to be 73 degrees and the silver lining is the weekend being here once again.

To those of you who are rejoicing that it’s another Friday, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  Favorite snack?  Yup!  I got it right here.  Favorite hobby?  Got it here too!  Time to read another exciting chapter…

Me & My Muse – Day 2166: Back in Black

Since my Camry’s grill was scratched when it was inspected, it looks like I’ll be driving my black LeSabre for a while.  From what I was told, it will get dropped off tomorrow and I should be getting it back on Monday.

With work done for the day, I got the bathroom cleaned.  I will now call it a day.  With one day left, another weekend is in the horizon.

Today’s high is going to be 59 degrees and the silver lining is getting the bathroom cleaned.

To those of you who like having a clean bathroom, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  He…WHAT?  No!  Where is the Camry?  I need to go and visit it right away!

Me & My Muse – Day 2165: Time for a Barbecue…

With work done for the day, I am now going to relax.  The family of one of my church friends is hosting a barbeque at their house.  With my delicious spinach dip and triscuits, I am ready to go.  Time to head over there for a night a fun and socializing.

Today’s high is going to be 75 degrees and the silver lining is going over to the barbecue tonight.

To those of you who like barbecues, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  A barbecue?  That reminds me!  One of my friends is having a barbecue as well.  They’ll LOVE my bean dip and cheesecake!

Me & My Muse – Day 2164: Toast and Pie…

To review, today was another productive day at work.

To cut to the chase, I need to get ready for another meeting for Toastmasters.  This time, it’s a business meeting at the Grand Traverse Pie Company.  Since I’ll be the incoming VP of Education, I want to be ready for tonight’s meeting.  Time to get ready for it!

Today’s high is going to be 76 degrees and the silver lining is having a nice dinner and being able to conduct some club business.

To those of you who like pot pies and evening activities, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Muse:  Another meeting?  I think I have one too, since I’m going to be club president at one of my Intangible clubs.  Time to get ready…
