soup and oyster crackers

 i did my customary visit to Hy-Vee in Eagan and picked up another close-out item near the checkout lanes. it was a bag of soup and oyster crackers. why not try it when it was for just a dollar? i did see the employee i have chatted with before and spoke of families a little more. i have way fewer cousins. the team lead did a swap on workdays in the office due to furniture delivery the previous day. it meant i didn't have to go to that floor to pick up the reject fax, but i still went there to get some refund checks in a 'blue company envelope' moved. actually, there was two of them as the mailroom did deliver a second envelope, the first was left over from the previous day as vacation replacement didn't show up for it after i notified. i left the second one under a box of Avery address labels, i guess my colleague was at lunch at the time. the screen saver spoke of 'employee banking' but i said i was at a loss for what other services i could get from the bank when i already have my checking account and ATM card there. another check copy was found, per request by the boss, from the Cincinnati file. it was a sub-file that i last printed over a year ago. it was the tenth copy i had sent on, and it means just half of those Cincinnati files have ever had checks for me to print. when the tax specialist sent an instant message and said, 'out of office', and to hold any tax checks i get, i said 'copy that'. there were some in the afternoon.
