tassel worth the hassle

 i was at hy-vee in eagan tonight and saw a display that said 'tassel worth the hassel'. it was about graduating from a school, in a case in the hot food section. guess this is how i felt about both of my graduations. there was a big shipment of patriotic cupcakes and twinkies on a pallet, i picked up a box of the twinkies. i was thinking ahead to the 4th of july picnic as i already signed up and said i was bringing twinkies. at work things were humming along well until the end of the day when the envelope stuffer started to have the sealing problem again. so this is likely something i will have to deal with next week. in the morning i took an item left at the UPS box over to the post office, i think it was a return item of clothing. while there i got a charlie brown card, not the typical one i see as the characters are small wooden figures. at midday i went over to mcdonald's and got a grimace shake, my third in the past week. no surprise how there was plenty of taylor swift music on the radio as this is the first of her two shows at the vikings stadium. the big bang theory' reruns were when sheldon polished belt buckles for howard in order to get a meeting with steve hawking. it was followed by the one where sheldon and amy do a 'fun with flags' retrospective and bert calls the show about what he is buying for his lady friend.
