Day 115 of 365: Photo shooting

Pastor Steve Korch came back to start a 3 part series on, I guess, the essentials of a Christian's life. Prayer was the topic for this morning's message and I liked it a lot. He used an analogy of a Mohawk Recon Army plane from the Vietnam war as a parallel of us and how we communicate to the power, which in the case of the Mohawk, it's the F-4 Phantoms. The Phantoms represented the power and might of God as He answers the pray. Pretty cool picture that I can relate to. Of course, the girls probably don't get it...

After service, I wanted to get a slight trim for the photo shoot session that Annie and I planned on. Conan, one of the more interesting High School students, came to me and asked me if I could give him a ride to the upper Richmond. Of course I said 'yes'. Hmmm...side note: Pastor Korch mentioned a moment like this as a "one right answer" moment. One of those moments where 'yes' is the only answer for a Christian. Anyway, I planned on walking to the barber's without sacrificing my parking spot, which was around the corner of the church. Instead, I sacrificed my time and spot to drive Conan. Like I said, he's one interesting character.

Finding parking again wasted some time, but I managed to get one a few blocks away from church and the barber's. Walked to and from for the most part. Got my haircut, went to Buffalo's for a fish burger, then walked back to the van because I forgot something, got lunch and walked back to church. Didn't get the chance to eat the moment I got back. Had to start the photo shooting. Did what could be done at the church and then we decided to go outside for outdoor shots. That's where I ate!

The photo shoot wasn't too bad. I wasn't too bored or too tired. So that a good sign. That means the actual shoot with the wedding photographer won't be too bad either.

Annie and I went to Target after. I was trying to look for this crank powered flashlight/radio/cellphone charger for myself and my boss. I plan on putting one in my Camry, just in case. My boss just thought it was cool and useful. Oh, and I found a couple of cool stuff! One was a sign (there's another proper word to describe it, but I can't think about the spelling) that speaks about family. You should check it out! The other is a childish impulse...a double-barreled dart gun that resembles a double-barreled shotgun. It even has an ejecting action! Crazy cool! We went to Gamestop and Michael's, separated for that moment. Picked up a game that I've been hunting for quite some time: Ace Combat 6. Airplanes and flying. Annie picked up fake flower petals. There was a bunch of cool wedding stuff like this pair of decision dice. I thought it was creatively practical. Hmmm...give me an idea... Decision dice for where to pick for dinner... Haha! Names of restaurants in a box and drawn out to make a number list from 2 to 12. Whatever number is rolled, that's the restaurant to go to. What do you think?

I came home after that and chilled. Slowly got tired, but tried the game anyway. Ate dinner and played a little more until I realized that time flew by. 'Sigh'....
