flashlight replaced

 i wanted to get to a movie but after i realized i wasn't going to make it in time i decided to do another thing on my list, look for a flashlight. i knew it was time to replace the one i had because the hard plastic was cracked. it served me well for a while, had it since age ten, as i recall it was an award from cub scouts. i got the replacement at home depot, the third store i went to. i was a little picky about what kind to get, in the case of the selection at target i didn't want an eveready or energizer light because i find the bunny to be annoying. so long live to the new flashlight. it had been on my mind to look for a replacement for two reasons. i had been to a meetup event a month ago, an evening walk through a park, and the one i used there was a small one, not much range to it. the other was the storms this past week. didn't need one then but good idea to have one in case the power goes out. this one has three settings, one of them strobe light. i noticed the cashier who helped me find it had braces, i spoke of having them when i was young. she said she hates them, i know i did. this one uses a different kind of battery, two double-a, the previous one used two c-size batteries. 

 i am still hopeful to get to this movie, it just was released and next weekend would be nice. and hopefully at a closer theater as well. another stop i made was at a goodwill, where i bought 3 books and 3 DVDs. while there i heard a song that reminded me of the late bill young, a fellow performer. it was 'i'm alright' by kenny loggins. it was a song in one of his fringe shows. before departing i watched part of a USFL game, birmingham vs. philadelphia. and i did some researching online for things like the season schedule for baseball on Fox. in the evening i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 3 cents.
