uncapped gas tank

 i went to the gas station tonight and then noticed in my rearview mirror how the gas tank was uncapped once i started driving again. so at my next stop i went over to put the cap back on. this stop was at a light rail station as i wanted to add value to my transit card, in preparation for attending the state fair. i got out my ticket and checked the weather report so i will do my best to be prepared, sounds like there is rain in the forecast. during my walks i found 66 cents, so i have reached my next save-up goal, more beer from the liquor store near my workplace. might be enough for two cans instead of one, depending on what remains in the close-out section that i saw early in the week. at work i wanted to see that i was caught up by the end of the day since i didn't want to leave anything for my vacation replacement. it meant staying to finish a check copy request, after noticing it was something i could take care of. in the shared box it can be hard to tell at times. technician arrived in the morning and the maintenance kit was swapped out of one of the check printers, so the logo problem on some checks has been handled. at times it still sounded like the 'cadence' was off, printing slower, but it still printed without interruption. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when leonard and penny had a fight on their wedding night. it was followed by the one where amy rants at the impostors trying to steal their nobel prize. and howard doesn't want a book about him published, depicting him as a scared astronaut. 

i also decided to make some more cuts on the events i had considered attending, from five to four. i bought a ticket for one of those four already, a 'drag brunch' next month. it is the 'emo edition', bands i enjoy such as green day. i had seen this edition advertised before, but it was when there was limited seating and no bar seats. normally i just sit at the bar as i only need one ticket for myself. and it seemed like a waste to have to buy multiple seats when i knew some would go unused. so sometimes it is a good idea to wait. i had considered scrapping the brunch as well, since the only one of interest to me was rihanna and i had already seen that edition, although this time her songs are paired with nicki minaj's. but they had just scheduled this 'emo edition' so i am thankful i saw it when i did. for another event, saints baseball, i will likely order those tickets this weekend and print them along with the brunch ticket.
