prairie home companion movie

 this afternoon i watched a DVD movie, a recent purchase from a resale shop, 'prairie home companion'. i recall seeing it at theaters but probably not since then. i did make it to this show in person later on, in 2010 as i recall. an all-star cast was nice, including tommy lee jones, woody harrelson, john c reilly, lily tomlin and of course garrison keillor. it was like watching it again for the first time, as i didn't recall the lady in the white trench coat, an 'angel of death' maybe? the 'bad jokes' segment reminded me of one i had heard as a kid from a football coach. much of the movie takes place backstage. 

i didn't do all that much today. i made it to the post office where i sent off my passport renewal. while there i got a charlie brown greeting card, and some stamps. i asked to look at what was available and said i like the ones of the mississippi river, as it reminded me of the johnny cash song 'big river'. i got a tracking number for the passport. then i went home. in the early afternoon, after having lunch- an egg salad sandwich from the speedway gas station- i went to aldi for my weekly grocery order. then i watched the movie, and when it was done the USFL game was on Fox, tampa bay vs. birmingham. i didn't watch it that close. i laid down and fell asleep. when i woke up the baseball game was on, cleveland playing the L. A. Dodgers. once the Dodgers went ahead 5-1 i went online, before that i was watching the game from my easy chair. later in the evening i went on a walk and found 14 cents. i also decided to thin the herd a little on the pages i like on facebook, after liking a new one. probably should do the same with the list of friends as well, in the name of 'stressing quality'. although some pages i was unable to 'unlike' as i think they had already been deleted.
