i watched a DVD movie in the afternoon, 'doc', about western legend doc holliday. i recognized stacy keach in it, as well as faye dunaway. this is different from the other versions of the story i had seen, where it is more from the point of view of doc, hence the title. also because it portrays wyatt earp as kind of corrupt, in terms of being willing to make dirty deals to win an election. of course they do depict the gunfight at the OK corral, wouldn't be much of a movie if they didn't. memorable was an opening scene where a bartender keeps saying there wasn't any of the kinds of drinks that doc wanted.
it was an active day, as i wanted to get laundry done. then after having lunch i put in the movie. once it was done i watched the st. paul saints baseball game on 45-tv. saints lost to the iowa cubs, it was at the end of the 3rd inning when i first tuned in. after having the evening meal i watched a 'simpsons' rerun that mentions german chocolate cake. then i decided to get some things done, and it meant the TV went off. i went through a binder that has pocket schedules and business cards, wanting to free up 4 pages in order to get some baseball cards in them. it was the st. paul saints team card set, the giveaway item from this week. it mostly meant doubling up some cards as i try to avoid throwing out any business cards, as they are nice souvenirs. then it meant mending two pairs of socks. after that i did the dishes and recycling. during my walks i found 1 dollar 1 cent. i have reached the next save-up goal- a can of beer, and a bag of chips from the vending machine at work.
