click an image to select

 i had plenty of things on my list to do for the day, and the final one i got to was going to the mall in roseville and doing the photo booth. i started this annual thing as part of oktoberfest weekend during the pandemic. and i kept hearing 'click an image to select'. well i wanted a good look at what was available, chose a background that included a microphone as one of the four on the strip. no surprise when i am a stage performer. as usual, i held up a page saying what year, and this time mention of how the jacket is from ragstock, as i had bought it there in may. besides my two strips i claimed the one left behind by others, two ladies on it. i have done this before. looks like calendars for next year are already for sale, but i don't get one this early. i like knowing there is a charlie brown calendar available though. one thing on my list will be moved back a week, dumping recycle in a bin near the capitol, as it was marathon weekend and that is the finish line. but i got to the other things. after having breakfast and returning the rental car, i got to it. there was getting groceries at aldi, then doing laundry. it was midday by then, so i went to an ATM and went to a booya, except the booya was sold out. i got two hot dogs instead. on to the copy store, where i printed three pages about events i am booked for. then i went home and folded and put away laundry, and the next stop was the mall. i wasn't home for long, putting a frozen pizza in the oven for the evening meal, then going to a mic to perform. i was on near the end, nice seeing the d.c. native there, who is headlining this venue soon. newsboy hat was part of the mic's lineup as well, wearing a champion belt from winning a recent contest. after the mic i watched some pro football, the cowboys-steelers game, then laid down for a little while. when i got up i did the dishes, then retired for the night. during my walks i found 1 dollar 7 cents.
