i accomplished plenty on my day off. it meant going to mall of america in the early afternoon. i wanted some cookies from the nestle place, which is next to the dairy queen i've been to before. hopefully i will get some airline miles from the visit. then it was on to bubba gump. still haven't eaten there but i noticed there was a smashed penny machine just outside the souvenir shop. so i got one. i have seen the movie a few times before, and have the soundtrack. i got another idea while there, from an electronic billboard. there is a limited run louvre museum exhibit, ending in the middle of january. it is in the same general area of the mall as the sistine chapel and failure museum exhibits. after going to the mall i went to a walgreen and got some more discounted christmas candy, although a smaller amount compared to the previous day. before the mall i went to mail a card at the post office, and later in the day i saw how i got my fifth card of the season. for lunch i went to buca di beppo, and saw by email right away how i am getting miles from this visit. i had a meatball sandwich and fries. i liked looking around at the pictures on the walls there. notable to me was a bride on her wedding day kicking a soccer ball, and another that spoke of a clown, as it reminded me of the song 'tears of a clown'. i contacted hotels dot-com customer service, and they finally added the 2 days from my des moines visit in september. so now i am over the hump and have the free night in my account. in the evening i listened to the dolly parton greatest hits CD, a recent purchase. later on i went on a walk and found 79 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when leonard said amy's dad is a 'mousey little man' while sheldon throws away hot dogs as sheldon and amy are on their honeymoon in new york city. it was followed by the one where amy keeps saying 'hoo' when she sees penny's ex, zach.
