overwhelmed, royal and the serpent

 there are many songs i hear on my car radio, but some stand out more than others. this is still true of one i heard a while back, 'overwhelmed' by royal and the serpent. the hook was 'my anxiety creeps inside of me'. the video i found on youtube has a 1970s living room look to it, including a zenith console TV. the singer is a scantily clad woman on a couch. by the end of the video the room is trashed, and the singer lights a cigarette. and at times the action is displayed on the TV. there are others in the video, but they are fully clothed. 

things hummed right along at work, but there was another big check file from a business line that normally sends very little. it was nearly two thousand today, and last week more than three thousand, all checks for small amounts. there was some 'personal and confidential' items that arrived in the mail, once it was finally sorted in the mailroom, for two colleagues of mine. i was asked to overnight them. after getting home and having dinner i went to get things printed at a fedex office. this included the two st. paul saints baseball tickets. i watched some of the two college basketball tournament games but not a lot. houston and baylor won to reach the final four. i also went on a walk and found 52 cents. so i have enough for another bag of chips from the vending machine at work, got one earlier today. these are the ones saved for weekend meals. i did a virtual open-mic and the flautist, who did not perform, spoke of living in irving, texas, when she was little. and meeting actor john ritter. this was after i mentioned seeing the movie 'vfw' as a redbox rental. i placed another DVD order with amazon, replacing the VHS copy of  REM music videos. a different disc was found at cheapo this weekend that i didn't buy and i think i will pass on that one. i still have a reason to go back and get a CD in the dollar section sometime soon but i am trying to think of what else i would like to get. i usually get at least two items on each visit. i got the idea to do the true 'replacement' during the morning commute. the order used up the remaining amount of gift card money, and i only had to pay for shipping. i usually just order once a month for this reason- as gift cards make it cheaper.
