counting crows, mr. jones

 i went to a bowling event in ham lake tonight. plenty of music played there, but most notable was hearing 'mr. jones' by counting crows. it reminded me of another place i had bowled at, in southern california when i was visiting some distant cousins, when the song was new many years ago. listened to the song on youtube, the theme is 'stare at the beautiful women' and the song name-checks picasso as well as bob dylan. as usual i bowled two games and the second was better than the first. my scores were 94 and 122. it was a crazy day at work so i made it to the bowling alley when i could, after the overnight labels were caught up. there was another afternoon meeting, about where the mail is being left in the morning. i heard from driver services shortly after the meeting ended. my boss less than an hour later showed up in the shop and asked me about an email i researched weeks ago that was bounced back to us. i said i couldn't find the check numbers, same as before, so i don't know why i was being asked about it again. there was a department luncheon at a buffet in a nearby town, i got a picture of the stone statue out front. i had some ice cream as my last item, once i found out where the machine was, in the corner. i would like to think there will be no meetings for the next day, and a lower check volume, this would make it easier to get caught up on things. i did two more online classes in the morning, so now there are two left.
