Wassup, just did another 747 shift. Same as last Saturday. That's like a 3pm to midnight shift. I did have a one minute snooze around ten pm however I'm plum tuckered out as the Americans from the 1950s might have said.
Anyway I'm watching Fox and Friends, I guess Hegseth just packed his box and left so no cake for him?
Stairway down from TV common areas at bus depot...
I need to go home, get six hours sleep then bring the youngest child to sailing, leaving around 745am. As Alex won't be attending we can just leave around 1030am and head to Auburn Anglican church for a church lunch. That was the church I had been attending up until said youngest child was born. As mentioned earlier on this blog, I believe it's possible my well-liked (by me) sister Raquel who passed away in 1999, reincarnated around ten years later as said church preacher's eldest child. I realise that might be wishful thinking however I don't really care. I'm not especially attached to this church nor my sister Raquel for that matter. However I feel vaguely at home and comfortable with this church however I don't attend much. I prefer sailing school to church. I don't really like the preaching at church, just the fellowship and meals. They're having a big lunch tomorrow anyway.
Hours later, almost six hours sleep check. Zara blue group sailing check. Beautiful on the water, 90 horsepower engine helps. Drive to Auburn church one hour for lunch, never watch Deadpool, it's garbage ....

Dwelling on the threshold, Zara and I arrive just as church service is wrapping up. Folks are singing emotional kind of spiritual tributes to Jesus.....
Hymns or something....
Probably not a Roman Catholic thing.... This is the first church I ever attended. I became a father and had a six or seven months old son to take care of Sundays while his mother worked so I tried to stifle my misgivings about modern church doctrines. But mentioning that, let's the consider the parable of the vineyard workers in the context of the spiritual question: could the preacher's eldest child be the reincarnated or resurrected soul of my sister Raquel that suicided in 1999.....
I mean shoot, I can imagine my sister Raquel being happily reincarnated with the blush of youth and a nice Anglo family she can actually love..... Actually that's what Raquel did with (some of) her teenage years: go live with an Anglo foster mom and brother and sister. Probably some lady, Colleen, a fatty, that needed extra Centrelink money. Her foster sister was around the same age and cute. I don't care if the foster brother Chris or whoever came out gay or transgender or whatever, I wouldn't know. I think I saw a movie with them one time at Chatswood before the Chinese took it over and changed it to Chatswong. If that sounds racist consider Chatswood is probably the only place on Australia planned for architecture from outside Australia, in this case from China; apart from Adelaide which was planned from London. I note the English don't treat people like complete shit like the Chinese do in China to the Uyghurs.
Matthew 20:1-16
The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard
20 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
3 “About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4 He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So they went.
“He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the same thing. 6 About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’
7 “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered.
“He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’
8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.’
9 “The workers who were hired about five in the afternoon came and each received a denarius. 10 So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. 11 When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 12 ‘These who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’
13 “But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius? 14 Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. 15 Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
16 “So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”
