Brunswick Zone, Eden Prairie

    I went to Brunswick zone in Eden Prairie for the final Roosevelt mentoring event of the year. Of course it was a day off from work in order to be there. I liked the bowling, but I didn't do the laser tag. I also had a beer after the students had left, as a way of thanking us mentors for all we have done. Notable was songs I heard while driving to and from the event. One was 'Tide is high' by Blondie, I still think of it as the song where I found courage since I didn't want to end up hating it. So the song has fond memories. The other was by Soul Coughing, I think it is called 'Walk around in circles'. This was after the event, seemed appropriate since there was plenty of traffic. I say this because some of the lyrics speak of languishing. It is relatable as I know I have languished at times, sad but true.
    At the comedy club tonight, the show closer played a ukulele. I had to contend with a construction delay getting there, as there is a major construction project this weekend.
    Also at the comedy club, Blind Side did ones about Bemidji and Saginaw, weathergirl, and Carlton from Fresh Prince. Duffel bag did ones about 4 options on body type, too fluffy, goofy imagery, Snickers bar in salad, and sister, computer, and therapist. Long Straw did ones about glow in dark board game, fashion not strong suit, avoid ridicule, dress like wallpaper, and cover of Little John song. Perkins did was brought on by the song 'Don't get me wrong' by the Pretenders, I like this song.
