who's covering for who?

 i found it odd that when the doorbell rang to the check shop late in my workday, it was who would be picking up the mail tubs. they were 15 minutes early, and arriving early did them no good because i still needed to go to the mailroom and pick up what was there. the cart was still wheeled out at the regular time. he spoke of covering for others, and i said when somebody was in this week they had said the same thing. since i usually don't see who is picking up the tubs, i am not aware of who is covering for who. there was also an impromptu meeting late in the day about 'umlauts', that were supposed to be on a check going to iceland but weren't. i didn't understand why a meeting was held about just one check. 

in the evening i went to hy-vee in eagan, moving it up one day on the weekly grocery order because i will be at the saints game friday. also had some things printed at fedex office. i needed fewer things this week, but i still got a box of cereal, cheerios pumpkin spice. this of course was after i had eaten. i had the bottle of dos equis with the meal, so now there are 3 beers waiting. later in the evening i went on a walk and found 35 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when raj introduced claire to his friends, and penny's ex, zac, also happened to be there. sheldon and bernadette played dungeons and dragons. i don't think i had seen this one before, but i liked it. this was followed by the one where howard goes to the ER to stall for time related to leonard's surprise birthday party.
