cleaning sensors

 around midday at work the envelope stuffer pretty much stopped, even though i was able to get it going again for a little while but then it stopped again. so i knew i had no choice but to call for service. i ended up seeing 2 technicians. the first was a woman who said her son is a basketball coach in fort dodge, iowa. this was mentioned when i spoke of the dairy queen in my hometown. the other one arrived to help out and may have been at home when called in, i had seen him work on the machine before and have his business card. by the end of the day it was running again, they took apart the machine to clean the sensors. i confirmed that this was outside my scope of knowledge about the machine. so i was pleased that i was still able to get all of the checks out same-day. the man the brings the mail and empty tubs in the morning was late, and when he arrived he showed me pictures on his phone of his car being broken into, an apparently stolen as well. he spoke of needing to rent a car to get there, and called me 'buddy', although i don't see him that often it meant something to me. in the evening i went on a walk and picked up 4 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when sheldon and amy had a funeral for their theory. it was also a cross-over episode with its prequel, 'young sheldon'. it was followed by the one where leonard signs a new roommate agreeement that benefits sheldon as priya didn't want her parents to know she was dating sheldon. howard destroys a watch in a magician audition as well. 'the conners' had a marie antoinette cartoon mocking darlene.
