animal quest figurine

 i make it to the walgreen near my workplace once a week. sometimes i get more than just ice cream and a drink. this time i also got an animal quest figurine, as there was a buffalo or bison. it reminds me of emerson hough, an inspiration to me as a writer, who helped protect the buffalo at yellowstone park. i have been inside the school that is named for him and there is some framed art related to buffalo there. when i got back from lunch, and from walgreen, there was an i.m. from the payroll boss about the paystubs. i had notified around midday how the envelopes had arrived. these were in boxes that were closed with zip ties. then late in the day the file arrived, and i said i would print it the next morning. i had done these dial-in meetings with my boss before, not a big deal. also notable about the day was how both of the envelope orders arrived before the mail tubs did. branch manager rang the doorbell, and those two boxes were brought in by the courier. the boss was not in the office, not too surprised when he likes working from home and had shared with us being ill the previous day. vacation replacement emailed the team and spoke of leaving early, after telling me of how his head hurt. i had the can of hamm's with the evening meal so now four beers are waiting. later on i went on a walk and found 75 cents. the 'big bang theory' rerun was when the ladies found embarrassing things about each other. for amy it was fiction inspired by her and sheldon, as well as 'little house on the prairie'.
