feed your holiday spirit

 i got mail from a restaurant that said 'feed your holiday spirit', gift cards included. except it isn't a good deal at all, 20 off 100 and 50 off 250, from buca di beppo. i had been doing thanksgiving dinner there, in order to get airline miles. but it seemed like their good deal had vanished so i found an even cheaper dinner at the grocery store, no surprise there. also notable about the day was the music i was hearing on the drive home. the announcer said that songs of recent rock and roll hall of fame inductees were being played, this included eminem's 'lose yourself'. it brought back memories. seeing '8-mile' when i lived in suburban chicago. seeing Em in concert at MSG in NYC, a weeklong vacation in the big apple. and it was my first karaoke song. i went online to confirm it and an article said another one of this year's inductees is dolly parton. i toured the rock hall on labor day weekend, the same year i saw '8-mile'. at work there was a question about when some letters were picked up and sent out by the postal service. eventually i had to add energy park people to the thread as i couldn't answer their question. hard to understand why they care so much, as the letters are low volume, usually less than 10 per day. and i send out thousands of checks per day. an overnighted check was returned, it was damaged. so i re-printed it and let the business line know i was re-sending it, part of my daily send of tracking numbers. in the evening i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 28 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when raj was labeled as spoiled and decided to stop spending his dad's money. it was followed by the one where howard was working on the space toilet, and leonard screwed up his karma by giving bad advice to stuart about dating penny. i laughed a lot at this one.
