leaning beer can

 i drank the can of Michelob tonight with the evening meal so now there are four beers waiting. i noticed this one was leaning a little so i didn't want it to tip over, and it was put next to books on the table when i was eating and drinking to prop it up better. of course, this meant it was dented near the bottom of the can. it is a reminder of how i am not that picky about what i buy when getting single cans or bottles from the nearby liquor store in their discount cart. a discount for a dented can, fine with me. the weekly visit for groceries at Hy-Vee in Eagan was moved up one day as i am already booked for the next day. it was a small order, just six items bought. i didn't want to take two plastic bags to the car so i put it all in one bag. at work i went to Walgreen in the morning and got some vitamin water and some cookies. of course this was done after the morning files were printed, but those didn't take long. i liked getting the carryover done first, over a thousand checks run through the machine, and there was no backlog at the end of the day. i stayed ahead on the overnight labels even though it was a little over thirty. it meant i could leave close to my normal leave time and see all of a 'young Sheldon' rerun. it was the final episode, from a little over a year ago. also notable about the day was getting registered for two events. i looked at this month's events at work and one of them required registration and it only took a few minutes to complete. the other was done in the evening, and it was volunteer training for the fringe festival. now it means getting a look at the list of shows to see as well. in recent years i have attended just five, as the saying goes, less is more. it requires me to be pickier about the shows i see and i am more likely to leave the venue pleased with my choice. during my walks i found 50 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when we meet 'shel-bot', as Sheldon is using a virtual presence device. it was followed by the one where Howard kicks a girl out of bed as Bernadette doesn't want him to go to space and tells his mom about it.
