violin player, fish fry

 i went to a fish fry at a catholic school this evening after work. notable was seeing a violin player on the stage. hard to tell what the other instrument was, but probably a 'concertina' since it looked like a small accordion. while waiting in line i saw someone pouring beer out of a pitcher to some patrons. i got plenty with what i paid for, including a breadstick. the one thing i would have preferred is the jugs being labeled so one wouldn't have to guess what drink was in it. there was three, and i wanted water and it was on the left. another patron said try that one if i wanted water. i didn't stay long, after i got food i was out the door in ten minutes. i wanted to get to the science center and see a movie in the omni-theater but i didn't make it in time as i knew part of being there was finding parking first. i learned a valuable lesson and will try again next week. what i wrote down was 'do not turn on TV when i get home or go directly to the fish fry and do not go home at all'. considering the wait in line for food, this would have given me the ten extra minutes or so that i needed to find parking in downtown St. Paul. it was a 'young Sheldon' rerun, where the mom is mistaken for a student at Sheldon's college orientation. pastor jeff gets a motorcycle ride from the dad as the episode ends. during the college campus scenes, the song 'two princes' by spin doctors is playing. this show did have music playing way more often than 'big bang theory' ever did. anyway, after the science center was a no-go i just went to the Hy-Vee in Eagan for groceries. cashier thought it was a little odd that i wanted the paper, i said i still like reading it once a week. and i pay attention to the music while there. two songs i heard were Demi Lovato's 'heart attack' and then 'my city was gone' by the pretenders. at work there was two notable things. tech arrived in the morning, and we found out the problem with the inserter machine, was told it was 'hot product' after seeing the error message. this means just let it cool down a little between pulling it off the check printer and then running it through the machine. during that same time my boss tried to call me. it was about the ACH-PDF file. i did find two statements going to foreign lands but those did not 'go to the top'. during my walks i found 30 cents.
