Week 531: Full of Games - Full of Blessings

Weekly Written Review 

What a week! Everything about this week was grand, ultimately landing me on the largest television spot of my quest via The Price Is Right. The recording date was Wednesday, October 7th. I wrote about it on my blog in code. Check it out: Week 525

On Sunday, I called a select group of people to inform them about the episode. They all were excited. Spent the first half of the week remastering my web series then came Thursday. Myself and my two teammates appeared on something special. We've basically started preparing for this day after I shot my episode with The Price is Right. After multiple Sunday Zoom meetings, our day came and ended with a splice of disappointment. We had a great start but we didn't end with the results as anticipated. As we were being escorted out, they told us we have good news. They liked us and we might get invited back for a redemption episode. I immediately thought, "Isn't being on TV twice better than being on TV once?" That's all I'm saying for now. 

Then came Friday. I woke up early to join my parents on the phone as they watched The Price Is Right earlier on the east coast. That's the best part for me, hearing the excitement from my family and friends. I even had a few people record their reactions to the episode for a possible appearance in an upcoming documentary I might produce in the future. For a few hours, I was famous. Text messages, Facebook tags, and Instagram. Well, one person on Instagram but it was priceless. This person saw me on The Price is Right and immediately remembered me for the show Baggage. I did that back in 2011. His words, "holy shit I just saw you on the price is right and recognized you from BAGGAGE!!! your ep was the best ep of that show, you were so funny" I had to question how he remembered me from so long ago. He said, "how could I forget you and mr chill?" His response was more rewarding than my Price Is Right results.  

After all that, I had an amazing day of tennis. Close to 4 hours. As I was leaving I found out, I got approved for a rent subsidy program. Since I've been affected by Covid, I applied for a program to help me take care of my rent. An email finally confirmed my approval putting me in the clear of approximately 10 months. 

Another great note worth mentioning, on Friday, I noticed a IG story post, swiped up, and completed a short 3-page form. I found out about it earlier in the week and I've been looking out for it. If selected, I could get to meet a person I admire. We'll see what happens.
