keith haring exhibit

 in the morning i went to see the keith haring exhibit at the walker art museum in minneapolis. i decided to go on a free admission day, the first saturday of the month is free admission there. i still had to pay for parking, in the ramp, though. i bought three postcards after i had toured the museum. there was one of the artist in front of his mural. another was of a smiling face with the tongue sticking out, also on the activity guide. the third was of a woman watching TV, it is mostly red. when i saw this painting i had to step back in order to see better what was described on the caption. there were warnings in some sections about the art being, for lack of a better term, vulgar. but i know sometimes what i see in life is vulgar, so this didn't bother me much. in one section there was his graffiti in new york subways. i was just as interested in the advertisements i was seeing as it served as a good time capsule. before i made it to the exhibit i went to the post office, one order picked up. then it was to the credit union to have change counted, a quarterly thing i do. over thirteen dollars went into my savings account. then it was to goodwill to drop off a donation, mostly items i saw at work from the recent cleanup. i wanted to increase the odds that they would actually get used by someone, instead of just thrown out. i ate out for lunch, as well as the evening meal, going to chick-fil-a, and then jersey mike's. in the evening i went to cheapo discs. i bought a CD by first aid kit, 'stay gold', which has 'my silver lining', their biggest hit. the one i had hoped to see there, but wasn't, was 'ruins', which has 'fireworks' on it. i ordered that one from amazon after getting home. i went to aldi to get groceries after i had lunch, then laid down for a while. late in the evening i went on a walk and found 78 cents.
