at work it was a little confusing at first when getting a skype message from somebody i didn't know. they did give me a name i recognized, it helped with finding the check in question. but then they asked for a tracer, didn't know what they meant. i found out they meant tracking number, and this was a check slated to be sent overnight by UPS. i was a little behind on creating labels as i was handling a spike in volume of of checks for another business line, but i let them know i would send the tracking number when it was available. i found out they wanted to re-direct the check, as it was a branch manager. i have sent checks to a branch before, so not a big deal. i got most checks printed by the end of the day, only one file wasn't but it was imported and i can take care of it in the morning. with the two largest files i got more about half of them through the envelope stuffer and out the door. i should be able to get caught up by the end of friday. it took a while to print more than six thousand checks from one file, close to three hours. but at the time there were no other files to print, and when i was done there wasn't much waiting either.
in the evening i went to perform at the comedy club. i hadn't been to this venue in more than a year, last time was right before the pandemic was declared. i did a guest set, the headliner is somebody that had given me stage time before. i went on after the MC. my set was all right but we are our own worst critic. i felt like i paused too much but at the same time i don't like to pause, but sometimes you need to. i know i got some laughs. after the show i spoke with two crowd members, one of them recognized me from a job i held for just four days. surprised anyone remembered me from there. the other was somebody i spoke about performing with, and how i like having other things in my life as well. so it meant i spoke about baseball, especially the saints as i had just been at the saints game the night before. before the headliner went onstage he was in the back and was filming on his camera phone, including me. then i went to see another guest set, as school bouncer showed up and was given stage time, after the feature comic. notable was how the number of seats in the club was about half, and there was plastic screens up- some hard plastic, some were thin plastic. i still went on a walk when i got home, and found 49 cents. and i still watched some 'big bang theory' reruns before heading to the club. it was when sheldon got his hair cut by penny, followed by the 'fun with flags' edition where raj, then kripke, called in and wanted to talk about being single.
