broken pull tab

 i went to have soup, as i normally do at lunchtime. one thing though, the pull tab broke off and i was unable to get the can open. so i went to the nearby walgreen and got a microwaveable little tub of beefaroni. i know what to do with the can that won't open, get out the can opener, which i didn't have with me at the time. so this can gets rolled over to next week's lunch. it was another busy day doing overnight labels, final count was 65. this included 16 from the previous day where the file arrived late, and 35 more from the same business line. my boss saw the email about it and called me to find out more, i let him know about the spike in volume this week. so he 'read the riot act' in his response on the thread, as i said i was able to get them out same-day if given enough time. i stayed late to see that i was caught up on most everything since i have monday off. of course the last act was putting up the 'out of office' reply on my email. i also said 'quit scaring yourself' when the envelope stuffer shut off late in the day. found out why, it was my clumsiness. i pressed the wrong button and shut off the computer monitor that controls it. the colleague that will fill in for me asked what my weekend plans were, i spoke of the dentist appointment on monday. and how i have mostly been renting movies for the weekend for a while now due to the pandemic. i had to think about it, there have been some ticketed events, but largely few and far between. there has been the four st. paul saints games, the art exhibit at the fairgrounds, the first avenue exhibit at the history center, the opera at the saints stadium, and the day-trip to new ulm for oktoberfest. that might seem like a lot to some, but in a typical year i have events lined up most every weekend, especially in the summer. i know this is one reason why i started doing walking on a regular basis, as i like being active. after i went to hy-vee tonight for my weekly order, i went on a walk and found 2 cents. the 'big bang theory' rerun was when raj dated a deaf lady and howard did the sign language translation.
