missed call, long walk

 in the evening i went on a long walk, after watching all of the 'big four' christmas specials i have on DVD. near the end of it i checked my phone and noticed that somebody had tried to call me, except i had the ringer shut off. later on, i got a text message and then recognized the same number, it was Yemen native. it said 'merry christmas' and i said the same as well. this wasn't the only christmas wish of the day. also got one by text from my friends in st. louis, which said they enjoyed reading my card about my stories of visiting st. louis in May. this day off did me good. i laughed, i slept, and as usual the long walk helps clear my mind. and i claimed two books from a 'little free library' close to the turnaround point. one of them was written by actor-comedian tim allen. unsure if i noticed anything that i hadn't before from these specials, but i still like watching them. actually, it wasn't four, it was six. there was two 'frosty' shows and two 'charlie brown christmas' shows on those discs. i watched them in the order i listed them in a facebook posting- rudolph, frosty, grinch, charlie brown. watched the first two, then had lunch and slept. then i got to the other two. the meals were two turkey dinners i heated in the microwave oven, bought at cub foods a few days back. along with some pumpkin pie and whipped topping. i drank a can of beer with both, so now there are four beers waiting. it was a pryes, then a bent brew-stillery, both are local twin city brews. during the walk i found 1 dollar 41 cents.
