addams family, 2, movie

 this morning i watched a DVD movie, a redbox rental, 'addams family 2'. the main storyline was about going on a road trip, and i do like road movies so this was a good one for me. the family goes to niagara falls, miami, san antonio, death valley, and sausalito. i like what wednesday said about not liking puns. the song selection found in the closing credits was a good lineup, much like the earlier movie. it listed 'mom's little monster' by social distortion (a band i have seen in concert), 'jump around', 'edmund fitzgerald', and 'i will survive'. the last of these was a fun one, being played on a piano in a biker bar by lurch. i also liked seeing the MGM logo saying their motto was 'art for art's sake'. the movie held my attention throughout, and i liked it. some of the jokes really work for me. it helps that wednesday is dour, though i still don't like how mean she is to pugsley. although i am aware of how sibling rivalries are common, i speak from experience. 

of course after the movie was done i needed to get going on errand running. there was 3 stops to make, first was the post office. five orders were there, one from amazon, a  photo essay book  about the ruins of detroit. the other four were from e-bay, postcards and sports cards. i saw 'double d' at the window, who asked about my vaccine status and my winter coat. which is odd, even for him. his colleague got the book for me, and said vaccines keep people out of the hospital. next stop was the capitol, to drop off recycle. finally it was the gas station, to get gas and to dump the movie. i had lunch when i got home, a chicken sandwich, and after some time online i laid down for a while. shortly after getting up i had the evening meal, some pizza. and then i went to aldi for my weekly grocery order. notable was that they were out of orange juice, at least in cartons or jugs. there was 'make your own' from concentrate, but that didn't interest me. so i went to the next closest store i knew of, a target a few miles away. i considered getting more, but in the end i only got the juice at target. later on i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 9 cents. i read through the johnny cash magazine, plenty of photos in it, and mention of a museum in nashville.
