the cajun grill

 i found things to do on my day off for a dental appointment. i ate in the food court just before it at a place i had eaten at before, but not in a while- the cajun grill. i still recognize some of the places from working downtown, but the food court has more empty storefronts now. earlier i went to the mall of america and had an ice cream cookie sandwich, to get airline miles. i got a flyer from the illusion museum, which just opened this month. and before that i watched a DVD movie, a recent purchase from the liquidation sale, 'american underdog'. i recall how i could have bought it at target but it was expensive as a new release, so i am thankful i waited until a better offer arrived, because why pay more if you don't have to? so now i have seen this football bio-pic three times- at theaters, a redbox rental, and now my own copy. after the appointment i didn't do much, i went to the speedway and got gas for my car along with some cheese and banana strawberry milk. then it was 'jeopardy', where all contestants got the final jeopardy clue correct, about rolling stone magazine. i performed at an open-mic, and the muppet lady was next to the show runner giving me an intro that sounded like maracas. also notable was how i spoke of going to the meetup event at the micro-brewery. later on i went on a walk and found 88 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when penny saw leonard do the 'walk of shame' after a date with a contributor to the university. it was followed by the one where the friends do karaoke after bernadette tells howard she is expecting.
