ambitious open-mic traveler

 i was at the bar tonight, just got a beer, and ready to perform at the open-mic. show runner tells me i am moved down in the lineup so a visitor from california can go earlier. not a big deal, though it has been  a while since i was asked to change the performance time. this young man spoke of an ambitious plan to visit 50 open-mics in 50 states, or was it 50 days? first song was with somebody wearing a concordia shirt, but all the other dude did was jump around. second song was just the visitor by himself. notable about my set was seeing an electrician's van. at work i did my best to get caught up on things as i have a day off for an appointment. it meant two items for the neighboring building were put in a different envelope and returned to sender. i checked the building and there was no office for the strip mall, and the other was for a hair cutting place that has closed. it is not the only business there that has closed since the pandemic began. it sounds like parts are bring ordered for the check printer, but no mention of when they might arrive. after the open-mic i went on a walk and found 64 cents. the 'big bang theory' rerun was when sheldon said to penny she was banned, '3 strikes and you are out'.
