after work today i had to do laundry, and notice how i can really observe people well there. in this case it was somebody who asked me if i worked there, no i was waiting for laundry to be done in the dryer. then he said he was going out to relieve himself, don't know where, and i've used the bathroom at this laundromat before. unsure what was wrong with it. later on he was talking to somebody that may have been his girlfriend as he said 'love you' at the end. in the call he was asking about the difference between affect and effect, i knew the answer but he wasn't asking me and he must have got the answer he wanted. i knew 'effect' was the result, 'affect' is not. this is why there is the term 'cause and effect'. even played the pinball game there, first time doing so, called 'fish tales'. made me think of Emerson Hough since there was a creel (a bag used for fishing) as part of the display, and Hough's creel is on display at the Izaak Walton clubhouse in Newton.
i went to use coupon number 17 tonight at Taco Bell, first time in a while i got a receipt. it appears to make a difference if it's the manager helping with the order at some point, often they will turn to him not knowing what to do with the card i give them. then i got some toilet paper and a bar of soap at Walgreen as i needed both and wanted change for the laundromat, not wanting to put a $10 in the machine but something smaller. i later realized i needed razors as well. will have to get them saturday.
work was fairly routine today, once i got there. i was late as the bus that normally takes me there did not arrive, was told it broke down. so we were on one that arrived 15 minutes later, and had probably double the number of passengers, explaining why it was full. my 'tag team partner' was out today, but i had no problem getting the payoff reports and new titles done. it made the day go more quickly when i was busy for most of the day.
the news said the iowa-minnesota baseball game at the Twins stadium was a 1-0 Minnesota win. surprised it made the local TV news when college baseball usually doesn't. but the Twins were out of town, explaining why the venue was available, and it filled the void especially at 6pm since the Twins game hadn't started yet. hopeful for good weather for saturday's game, i prefer attending it but willing to move it back to sunday if postponed. the weather report doesn't look good for a saturday game, better for sunday. tickets are sold on the day of the game, so it would be rather simple to switch days if need be.
