taste of whole milk

 i used up the milk and orange juice i had bought at the gas station the night before. i wanted to stay in as long as i could in the morning before going to the grocery store, so sometimes i get a few items 'just to get by'. only choice on small bottles was whole milk, which i don't have too often. it seemed to taste sweeter than the two percent or skim milk i normally get. at least in terms of drinking it with a snack cake to finish it up, although it was mostly for the cereal. i made it to aldi for groceries after having breakfast. it was nice to have very little on the docket for the day. i followed up on the advice from the dude i met at the friday event, watching part of a smashing pumpkins documentary, found on youtube. and i got out my pumpkins DVD and watched it, this was a decade of greatest hits, along with a short film that was filmed in sweden. around midday i went to a speedway gas station and picked up a sandwich and a small bag of popcorn and ate it during the drive to my next stop, the st. paul saints baseball game. it was my seventh of the season. i wanted to arrive early to get the giveaway item, it was the team card set. it is the ninth, and i have the last five from this annual giveaway. i found space in a binder by doubling up business cards and this helped with freeing up four sheets for the entire set. the saints lost to scranton, 5-2. after having the evening meal, stouffer's meatloaf, and watching some reruns, i went on a long walk around the neighborhood. during my walks i found 1 dollar 42 cents. checking facebook i saw a posting from my college roommate, the physics major, how his dad had passed.
