this morning i watched a DVD movie, a recent purchase, 'nostalgia'. i recognized bruce dern and ellen burstyn in it. the lead actor was jon hamm, who played a sports collectible shop owner. he is seen at work and then goes back home to help his sister clean out the house of his parents. although it started out as a story about an insurance man either appraising items or coming in after a claim was made such as a fire. i liked the character study, such as the woman who didn't want to go to assisted living. and examining the generation gap on photos. except it might be hard for me to watch more movies with jon hamm in them. because even though he is from st. louis, i had read on wikipedia how he had been arrested for fraternity hazing. by the time the movie was done, it was midday so it was time to get started on my to-do list. first stop was the post office, 3 orders to pick up. then to IKEA for lunch. i had the swedish meatball dish, and a little flag was included so i am keeping it as a souvenir of the day. on to dairy queen at mall of america, where i got a candy cane blizzard. i bought just one other item while there, a dolly parton greatest hits CD from barnes and noble. it was on my list after the recent drag brunch. next was cheapo records, but i didn't buy anything on this visit. i saw some ideas in the movie soundtrack section, but was unsure about what i already had or that category based on what i saw. it was getting time for 'jeopardy', so i went home and watched it. liked knowing i knew a daily double answer the contestant didn't know, about legionnaire's disease. i checked and found out one of those discs i already had, took pictures of them. but two others i didn't have. so after watching the news i returned and got the ken burns baseball disc, as well as 'prairie home companion'. for the latter i recall getting the actual movie on disc at another resale shop in the spring of this year. also went to target to get cheese, and winter shoes. mine were in need of replacement. used one of two gift cards from the museum survey i did. later on i went on a walk and found 39 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when raj finds a drone and then creeps out the owner. it was followed by the one where raj and sheldon spar over a desk, and howard gets back together with bernadette. some famous people are trying to direct the action in the back seat during their making out. drank the can of schell's with the evening meal, so now 4 beers are waiting.
