murder mystery

 i had a role in a murder mystery party tonight at a private home in richfield. first time i had done such an event, nice to hear about it through meetup. my character didn't commit the murder. i was working with some professional actors, including the one playing my wife. i brought an item for the potluck, a vegetable tray i bought at target. one of the actors said he had been an attorney, and then a spy. a band performed, i recognized one song they played was 'titanium' by sia. some others were 'paint it black' by the rolling stones, as well as the 'pulp fiction' song that i am told goes back even farther than that movie. my costume was a suit. i kept a few flyers, clues from the murder mystery. some of the votes from the crowd as to who did it were near the mic that the band was using, and i claimed one before others threw them into a bonfire. i stayed there for a little while even after the band was done playing as i enjoyed talking with some of the people there. 

i did my errand running early, in order to have time to do this event in the evening. of course that meant going to the p.o. box, there was 7 items to pick up. four were stamp orders and the other 3 were CDs, two of them comedy CDs. i dropped off recycle near the capitol, then it was on to target to use a coupon that was expiring today. i not only got the vegetable tray there, but also a burrito for lunch, some socks, tape, and a small tub of ice cream. i saw a charlie brown special magazine near the check-out lines, i got a picture of it but will wait to buy a copy. first sighting of it, so it will likely be there a little longer. i noticed it had two different kinds of covers. then after having lunch at home, and after watching a little college football on TV, i was out and about again, to get groceries at aldi. the game i was watching was notre dame vs. wisconsin, from chicago's soldier field. i fell asleep for a little while, then it was time to leave for the meetup event. during my walks i found 1 dollar 55 cents. so i have reached 2 more saveup goals, a can of beer from the liquor store near work as well as some chips from the vending machine at work. in the morning i watched a short educational video i had recently bought at family dollar, it was about the settlers at plymouth. i found the website that produced it, there were plenty of other titles available there. the previews on the disc included a video with basketball star david robinson.
