That's a dense amount of activity and reflection! Here is a flowing narrative summary, broken up with frequent captions, detailing the events, projects, and thoughts recorded from November 30th to December 19th, 2021. 🗓️ November 30th – December 1st: Faith, Film, and Tech Troubleshooting The period begins on Tuesday, November 30th, with the author attending an 8 a.m. St. James Mass and Rosary. A mundane detail surfaces with a brief conversation with a lifeguard named Thaddeus about a swim cap. The day includes practical errands: preparing Christmas cards at a FedEx office and successfully troubleshooting hotspot access (tethering) after an enjoyable and meaningful conversation with a customer service agent named Joy in the Philippines, a Christian homeschooling mother for whom the author promises to pray. 🎥 The Cinematic Reflections Begin: Clifford The first of several film analyses is the Paramount picture, Clifford the Big Red Dog, which is noted as only partially animated (the dog). Details are captured rapidly: the setting in Harlem, the missed capture of the red pup by the dog catcher, a line about "food stamp," the British mother's line, "were you ever a child?", and a character living in a box truck. The main character is described as looking like Laura Ingalls, seen collecting cans for school in Central Park. 🎬 Encanto and Political Undercurrents A second film, the 3D viewing of Encanto, leads to a sharp reflection on political rhetoric, specifically the use of the term "looting." The author connects the concept of truth and fact-based agenda to a brief note on energy policy: "491 windmills equals 1 power plant." This section also includes a reference to Joe Biden as a "puppet" and a citation of A. Jones ("Thank God for persecution"). The film's theme of miracles and the character Bruno is woven into the political commentary.
