a good person movie

 i went to see the movie 'a good person' in the mid-afternoon at the lagoon in uptown minneapolis. i recognized morgan freeman and molly shannon in it. this movie is about a girl who has an opioid addiction after a car wreck. she is a piano player, so the music in it is good. some scenes are hard to watch, but this can be expected when oxycontin is awful. a football teammate died from an oxy overdose. plenty of the story was about complicated relationships with parents, which i found to be relatable. after the movie i went to the nearby mcdonald's to get a shamrock shake. while there, and i wasn't there for long, a man asked, repeatedly, to get a ride to another town, and i turned him down. i don't give rides to total strangers. at the outset i was only planning on seeing the movie, but it became a little busier for me than that. i log on to facebook and see an invite for a birthday party. it was from big dog for one of his kids, which i hadn't met yet. there was a green screen, and i let the kids have their turn at it, but once the stage was empty i went up there. i had a can of modelo, and there was pizza from pizza luce as well. i was there for a little over an hour, then i went to the movie. while walking back to my car, one block over, i saw the d.c. native, who said he was in town to do a show. i traded some texts with my niece, will try to figure out what to get her kid for next month's birthday party. during my walks i found 26 cents.
