THA-THANG:
Box Baby Docks on the Cloud, on repeat. Table Row/Squat Elevens followed by a short mosey down to Atomic Speedway. Maybe the pay-to-play people stole our CMUs? Maybe they grew legs and were making an escape? Either way, we had to pick them up.

Curls, Hands Shrugs (™), bernie, swings, presses, sprints, the tricep thing, more curls. Q just wants to be shredded like Rainbow. A guy can dream, right?

We followed our hearts, which led us to Cardiac, where we figured it was time for hand-releases, squats, dips, flutters…and a repeat. Q is so afraid of boat/canoe that he would rather repeat cardiac one more time.

MARY:
See above. Q is scared and not ashamed to say it.
COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Rainbow, Hands, Snitch, Finger Paint, and yours truly. Crab Legs is lost in London, so we had the “My Fair Lady” soundtrack on repeat the whole time.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Is it?…is it?” I whispered to my guide.
“Not at all,” said he. “It’s someone ye’ll never have heard of. Her name on earth was Sarah Smith and she lived at Golders Green.”
“She seems to be…well, a person of particular importance?”
“Aye. She is one of the great ones. Ye have heard that fame in this country and fame on Earth are two quite different things.”
MOLESKIN:
Q is grateful to be up early, running around with these men.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Snitch calls a guy about a gas line, guy tells Snitch what happened after he died. Spoiler alert; it’s all true.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Crucifixion Love is the love that Christ showed us. He loved us even though we didn’t deserve it. His Love for us was not predicated on us first loving Him.

Reciprocation Love is loving someone because they’ve first loved us or loving someone with an expectation of something in return. Examples: 1) I’m going to unload the dishwasher so that my wife will notice and that will hopefully lead to sex later on tonight. 2) I’m going to help out with the kids this morning so that my wife will let me go golfing next weekend (and if she says ‘no’, I’ll remind her of how helpful I was with the kids the other day). 3) Or maybe it’s simply that you’re hanging out with someone or being friendly towards them because you’re expecting something in return – you hope to close a business deal, be seen in a certain crowd, you want them to approve of you, etc….

Although we’ll constantly fall short of it in our fleshly bodies, we are called to love others with crucifixion love. Love others even when they don’t deserve it. Love others with no expectation of anything in return.
