kyoto sushi, uptown minneapolis

 at lunchtime i went to uptown minneapolis to see a friend that was in town, it was at kyoto sushi. first time there but i have been to this neighborhood fairly often over the years. i was one of eight there, thankful for this size of crowd as i didn't have to say all that much. i spent a lot of time listening. it was all you can eat, and i chose the chicken teriyaki and chicken fried rice. i knew what i was getting with those two. ice cream looked good so i got some as well, green tea. for the drink i got ice tea and at first i got this as the refill but eventually the server put in coca-cola, but i still drank it. i knew some of the people who were there to see brawler, same as me, but not all of them. i knew chalm-skinn. i asked about streaming services and it sounds like i need to do some more research before i sign up for any of them. it may just be the one with a series of history documentaries as it was my college major. hard to avoid talk of performing, when i wanted to know about streaming i asked if it was fine to talk about something besides performing. memorable will be somebody across from me who had just completed his degree at st. thomas that was started 25 years earlier. i was adequate using chopsticks, even after a quick tutorial, and was thankful i got a spoon for the rice. another thing hard to avoid, i am finding out, is the story about how this dude got the name brawler. although i try to avoid it as it involves the dude intervening on my behalf in a bar, when i should have left well before it got out of hand. 

after it was done i walked around the area a little, and got pictures of the movie posters at the lagoon theater. other places were of the speedway gas station, which has been rebuilt after it burned to the ground during the 2020 riots. as we as an eating place that caught my eye because there was a charlie brown lunchbox in the window, next to a row of thermoses. when i got home i watched the second half of a USFL game, new jersey vs. houston, new jersey won on a quarterback sneak. i also saw a facebook posting asking me if it was me walking earlier, from mason city, and i said it probably was. later on i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 20 cents.
