songbird movie

 watched a DVD movie, a redbox rental this morning, 'songbird'. i recognized demi moore in it. this was a movie about the covid pandemic, showing it as worse than the current situation such as sending people to quarantine zones. there is also boxes that deliveries must be run through. the main character is a delivery man, who was working as a paralegal in a law office before the pandemic. he is willing to do anything for love, so this does sound like a 'romeo and juliet'- type story. the police department has been essentially replaced by the 'sanitation department' and most people are not allowed to leave their homes. other characters shown throughout the movie are a record executive- demi plays his wife- and a war veteran who uses drones for the delivery company, as well as a musician holed up in a hotel who broadcasts online. they do show somebody being hauled off the the 'q zone'- it is the grandma of the delivery man's love interest. this is after they do virus checks by smart phone. 

after the movie was done i went to the credit union for an appointment to get started on a certificate of deposit. the funds were of course taken from the savings account. i was asked plenty of questions about my finances, not sure how necessary this was but i think it was trying to sell more products. i chose a one-year term on the certificate but might decide on a longer term when it is up for renewal. it is set up for automatic renewal. i know i will like getting higher interest payments this way. then it was on to the post office, where two orders of postcards were there for pickup. the third is still on the way. when i got home i placed two more postcard orders on e-bay. then it was time to take recycle to a place near the capitol, and to the speedway gas station near the saints stadium for lunch. i got a sandwich, chips, and a smoothie much like last week. i was able to get into the college baseball game, hamline vs. macalester. it was a double-header but i stayed only for the first game. hamline won 5-2. i walked away with a foul ball, nice how i had no competition for it. when i arrived at the game i was asked to sign in with my name and phone number for contact tracing purposes. then i went to the armenian church to pick up a food order, they were having a festival, i got the pork kebob meal. i had it with a can of summit beer for the evening meal. this was done after going to aldi for my weekly grocery order. in the evening i watched some boxing on fox. there was three matches shown, no knockouts, these were lower weight classes such as welterweight. during my walks i found 1 dollar 69 cents.
