happytime murders movie

i watched a redbox rental this afternoon, 'happytime murders'. I have a poster from when it was being promoted at the comedy club. I had a free night code to use that was going to expire in a week. it was from a microwave popcorn box. this was a weird movie to say the least. it was from the jim Henson 'muppets' production company, now run by his son, brian. it was about puppets getting murdered and one of the puppets in the movie was a cop, trying to figure out who did it. he was paired with Melissa McCarthy. In many ways, it reminded me of 'roger rabbit', but of course that was animated characters instead of puppets. I liked seeing the cop/private eye puppet driving a dodge dart car from the 1970s. some of the things making it weird was seeing swearing from the puppets, as well as porn.
    I went to a meetup potluck at a church in Minneapolis tonight. it was nice to see the postal accountant, he was at the first meetup event I attended , nearly 3 years ago. I brought a vegetable tray that was from cub foods. I did not play any card games or board games, but eventually I spoke with somebody more my age there, who was hard to find. he said he was a massage therapist. he was surprised to see some of his colleagues there. he liked hearing about my stories as a performer. when I was at cub foods to get the potluck item, I also decided to get a box of Christmas-themed cap'n crunch cereal as it was just a dollar. I also went to a church service after getting back from the meetup event. I liked getting a good look inside the fellowship hall after the service, even though no cookies and juice were being served. some art was on display, as well as a tree, and a wreath.
   my dad called me back this morning, and said he did have a battery problem with the phone and it just needed to be re-charged. he liked the railroad photos, said one of them was a steam engine and the other probably had vista-domes on it, a passenger train. also mention of how he rode something like it when going for military duty at fort ord. he shared some of his holiday plans, something about going to the casino on Osceola, Iowa. 'yule log' is on channel 5-2, or 45, I like watching it when it is on annually.
