mcdonald's collector meal

 for lunch i went to mcdonald's near my workplace for the collector meal. i had the chicken nuggets and fries. the collector cup i was given, once i looked inside the blue plastic it was in, was shrek, jurassic park and minions. this was one of six kinds. i had hoped for the snoopy and hello kitty kind. i will likely try again this weekend and get a breakfast sandwich, then try to order it on e-bay if i don't get the one i wanted. i got the idea after my boss was in the office last week and i saw the to-go bag saying 'collector meal', then researched it online. this is celebrating various promotions the fast-food chain has done over the years. i had mine in a to-go bag as well and walked back to work where i ate the meal in the breakroom. notable about the day was getting a page while check printing, it explained why the machine stopped printing checks from the first of two fargo files of the day. there was more than six hundred left but i am confident i printed the right ones all around. no problem with the second one. and a while back when this happened i even went to the policy of doing barely more than a thousand checks at a time to put the odds in my favor that this wouldn't happen. and it has worked well for me. i am still getting mail i have to forward to a downtown office. in the tub at the end of the day was two of those gray packages from new york city. others i will be handling soon were thin overnight envelopes, one of them is refund checks. i went to vote in the primary election after work, and after i had eaten the evening meal. it meant not watching the news much as there was just an hour left until the polls closed. not much on the ballot, just two federal offices, senate and house. saw the health department warnings in this high-rise housing complex about the soft drinks in the vending machines. later on i went on a walk and found 40 cents. the 'big bang theory' rerun was when the friends went on a scavenger hunt. it ended with howard and amy singing neil diamond at a karaoke bar. i got the show cards and other souvenirs from fringe festival into sheet protectors and then the binder set aside for it. kind of nice to flip through it and look at each year, dating back to the first show i attended over a decade ago and of course the one year i had a role in a show a few years after that.
