branch handled delivery

 in the afternoon a branch employee sent an i.m. and said there was a delivery for me. i was thinking it was a backorder on envelopes. i go out there and see a staples truck, found out it was janitorial supplies. the delivery driver tried to make a joke about what was being delivered that didn't land with me. i went back to the branch employee and said i prefer letting the branch handle it. the boxes were left in the hall, i had seen this before. i did finally get the manifest from the delivery of two days prior. i got a call from my boss just before i went to lunch. it was asking me to move paper grocery bags to the check shop. there had been some in the breakroom at one point, but by then there was just two boxes. one had a christmas tree in it and the other had plenty of rolls of wrapping paper in it. i liked how it was a fairly low volume day on check printing, i used the time to stay caught up on doing overnight labels. there was one request to enter that the recipient is blind, asking the envelope be handed to her or put in the mailbox. i entered it in the lower address lines in order to have it seen by the courier. in the evening i went to hy-vee in eagan for groceries. i left a little early for this errand as i wanted to be back home for the college basketball game on the radio, iowa in the women's final four. except i was unable to find it on ESPN radio, AM side. all that i found there was sports talk radio, no game of any kind. when i made it home i found the st. paul saints baseball game on the radio, saints were in nashville. saints were leading late in the game when i fell asleep, found out they went on to win it. when i woke up the final four game was on, so i caught the fourth quarter of the game. it was tied at the end of that quarter and iowa went on to beat connecticut, 71-69.  later on i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 79 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were both about sheldon going to texas to visit his mom. the first was when he went to NASA with howard, the second was when he ran away after finding out his findings at the north pole were a sham to keep him happy.
