in the evening i went to the st. paul saints baseball game, and there was a giveaway item. it was a bobblehead honoring sister ros, the massaging nun. before the game she put her hands in wet cement and this will be apparently on display at the museum onsite. the saints lost to columbus, 11-8. most of the columbus runs were via the long ball. saints were trailing late, 11-3, and tried to close the gap but it fell short. since i wanted to arrive early enough to get the giveaway item i did not do the customary eating before arriving at the stadium. i had a cream soda, chili cheese dog, and a salted nut roll at the venue. this was a fairly full day for me and i didn't do much after getting home from the game. it started off with my typical errand running, going to the post office, picked up two orders. then it was on to the capitol to drop off recycle, and i moved up going to aldi for groceries as well. i wanted to be in uptown by midday, and i was. i had a reuben sandwich at caffrey, first time there since christmas eve. i had chips, a can of pineapple flavored soda, and some carrot cake as well. then it was on to the fringe show i wanted to see, about pop culture fandom on social media. it was largely about taylor swift. i laughed a lot. it was at the huge theater, which had moved, first time seeing a show the new location. it was about two blocks from the sandwich shop. after the show i went home and watched the olympic games on NBC, it was the gold medal game for men's basketball. the american team beat france, 98-87. then shortly after this was done i was on my way to the saints game. i made an odd find when getting back errand running. i saw a beer carton near my car and i decided to put it in the nearest dumpster. nothing unusual there, except i looked inside the carton and there was two bottles, one of them unopened. so i claimed the unopened one, a heineken, and put it in my refrigerator. at halftime of the basketball game i went to a nearby gas station and got a small bag of popcorn. then during the second half i ate the popcorn and drank the beer. during my walks i found 29 cents.
