masquerade exhibit, wilson library

 it was a day off for me and i wanted to stay active before i headed to a dental appointment in the afternoon. so i went to the university of minnesota and saw an exhibit at wilson library. it was called 'living masquerades'. i knew it would be closing soon. it was on the first floor of the building. it was small but i am thankful i saw it. i liked the video just as much as there was plenty of background information given in it. some o the displays were full costumes. what i also liked seeing was the art in the stairwell. it was framed photography of rural areas. i used the light rail to get to and from the park and ride, and made it home around midday, then had lunch there. then i used the bus to get to the dental appointment. before i departed for the exhibit i got a look at my book collection, spurred by buying some this weekend. i have 6 books by bill bryson now, and was able to find one of them that i decided to move to another bookcase so it was next to the others. after the dental appointment i went to the dairy queen at mall of america as i wanted a blizzard treat. i had been seeing the ads on TV about them being a sponsor of major league baseball and i like having the cup the ice cream came in as it has all of the team logos on it. i got cherry chip. i saw a private message on facebook from a classmate, asking if i was attending the reunion next month. i said i wouldn't be, due to a scheduling conflict. but i did say i still might make it to the area some other weekend. later in the evening i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 61 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when raj dated a deaf lady, and howard, as translator, asked i she was a gold digger. it was followed by the one where sheldon is in a  documentary about spock and says he is over the breakup with amy but really isn't. i performed at the open-mic, thankful i went on fairly early in the lineup. notable was when i quoted song lyrics, from 'eleanor rigby' by the beatles, as well as 'i'm alright' by kenny loggins. the former was inspired by a guitarist before me playing another beatles song, 'i feel fine'.
