home fries movie

 this morning i watched a DVD movie, a recent purchase from family dollar, 'home fries'. i recognized drew barrymore in it. i didn't know much about it before purchase, but this movie left a lot to be desired. it starts out with a man admitting to having an affair and dying of a heart attack. drew's character is pregnant and works at the burger place, hence the movie's title. one reason i didn't like it was the brother feud, one of them kept flicking the ears of the other while he was driving. along with the mom admitting who her favorite kid is. i liked drew in it, but not much else. i watched the movie after getting back from errand running. of course first it meant having to dig out my car after the snowstorm. just as i was putting the shovel in the back of my car somebody wanted to use it. i said i would help them only if i get to use it. so i shoveled around their car so they could get out. they said 'sorry', i asked what they were sorry for. i dropped off recycle near the capitol, then got a vegetable tray and a burrito at cub foods. then i picked up one package at the post office, a CD from amazon, lorde's 'pure heroine'. it is replacing another copy that was scratched. i decided to be more careful when ordering, i only order 'good' and not ones listed as 'acceptable'. by the time i got home it was time for lunch, so i put in the burrito and ate it before starting the movie. after the movie was done i watched some of the army-navy football game. i also did some planning for having the upcoming week off, shuffling through papers in my letter sorter. then it was time to get my weekly grocery order at aldi. after that i was out again, this time to a holiday potluck as a meetup friend's place. hence why i bought the vegetable tray early in the day. he told me about an open-mic at a place i hadn't heard of. i like reading some from his coffee table books about beer, and both listed anchor brewing and the maytag heir as its boss. and there was mention of 2 kinds of budweiser, had only of the st. louis version. later on a documentary about musician frank zappa was put in. i liked the bite size chicken brought from chick-fil-a. there was even a 'husker du' board game, i had only heard of the band. later on i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 27 cents. i found out the dude went to hill-murray, before the merger.
