wander movie

 this afternoon i watched a DVD movie, a redbox rental, 'wander'. i recognized tommy lee jones and heather graham in it. the premise is a paranoid conspiracy theorist that has a podcast, and is a private eye as well. he is hired to investigate the death of a girl in another town. in one scene i recognized a plastic shopping bag from the family dollar store. it was filmed in new mexico, and a disclaimer at the start of the movie wanted to let us know it was filmed on the tribal lands of the navajo, pueblo, and apache. since it was a thriller movie, it does keep you guessing for a while. but people are not who they seem to be, and eventually this is revealed. such as why they knew where the main character was without him saying anything to anyone. he is also haunted the memory of the death of his daughter, and what appears to be his wife who is now wheelchair bound due to the same car wreck that killed the daughter. 

this was an errand running day, and i accomplished plenty due to starting early. first stop was to the credit union, where i deposited change from the past three months once it was counted, over seven dollars. i went to a fedex to see who could help with a delivery at work, but by the end of the day i didn't get very far at all. so it is largely put on hold until monday. i also did a return and exchange at office max, unable to use the velcro cable ties bought there this week. the two-pack if scotch tape was less than a dollar more. then it was to the post office, and four orders, including all three DVDs, were there. i had a longer conversation with the loopy postal employee, i spoke about my line of work. guess there was more time for it as not many were in line. i went to the bank and closed the savings account, not too big of deal on getting it done. i was issued a check at the teller counter. so once i deposit the check at the credit union i will have enough for a certificate of deposit, which will yield more interest payments than the savings accounts did. and i bought four CDs at cheapo. the original plan was just two that i looked at last week, but i saw two more of interest and figured they may not be there if i wait to get them. this is especially true as i don't make it in that often. finally there was dropping off the recycle near the capitol. by the time i got home it was time for lunch, and it meant putting the home run inn pizza in the oven. once lunch was done i watched the movie, and laid down for a while after the movie. eventually i knew i had to get up and go to aldi for my weekly grocery order. when i got home it was time for dinner, and more pizza. and i then tuned in to the chicago wolves hockey game online as there was a free night of viewing. chicago beat rockford 4-2. i started watching during the first intermission, it was tied 1-1. the wolves led 3-2 at the end of the 2nd, the go-ahead goal was late in the 2nd. the final goal was on an empty net. it was a nice way to tune in to the game, hadn't done this before. i knew the wolves were playing at their practice facility, and it looked small, like a high school rink. there appeared to be some seating but not a lot. on the 'movies!' channel i watched some of 'kelly's heroes'. i liked the line by the general when he spoke about his communication officer should be able to communicate. and of course oddball, played by donald sutherland, was a lot of fun. later in the evening i went on a walk and found 97 cents. so i have started on the next collection for the change bank, and have enough for the next beer purchase.
