Hey juliana. How is Curtis's hand? All better, I hope?

Wait, you do mean direct deposit from a paycheck, not schedule deposits from your checking account, right?

DOH! I do mean from my checking account. You want to direct deposit from work right to savings? Don't you need to keep some in your actual checking account?

I don't see why not? The accounts are linked.

Yeah, that's what I figured but when I looked on the drop-down menus, it was only FROM > checking TO > ING. Maybe that changes once the account has been all activated and stuff.

hands a shot of Fernet to Aimee

t downs it with aplomb

Please, ma'am. Can I have another? And a Mitch Mojito, too? And a Tony?

How is Curtis's hand? All better, I hope?

Yup. We've now got a pool going on 1) how he'll injure himself next and 2) when he'll injure his left side.

Where are you coming back to the North Beach Spa?

My day keeps going like this?

Tonight.

(Unless that question was directed at Suzi. In which case the answer remains the same.)

Where are you coming back to the North Beach Spa?

1) When Aimee shows up, call me.

2) It is gonna take negotiations at home. DH wasn't happy the last time I crashed there. Which kinda points to the increased need to visit the spa. Circular logic at its best.

DOH! I do mean from my checking account. You want to direct deposit from work right to savings? Don't you need to keep some in your actual checking account?

Yeah, but I can split where the money goes automatically (half in checking, half in savings). I'm trying to avoid the outbound transfer fee, if this qualifies. I'm slightly confused as to how it all works because it's not like my various bills and shit that take money directly from my checking account qualify as "outbound transfers." Shouldn't there be a way to "electronically write a check" to my ING account? That doesn't have a fee. I mean, that's what I did to transfer my money from my Comerica account to my Bank of America account.

Yeah, that's what I figured but when I looked on the drop-down menus, it was only FROM > checking TO > ING. Maybe that changes once the account has been all activated and stuff.

Well, there has to be a way for you to get your money back!

What I want to know is, can you transfer from the ING account back to the checking account?

From what I was told when I originally researched it is that you can transfer money back into any linked account online anytime you want, but it takes 2-3 days for the transfer to process.

Oh God, I'm looking through my brother's Facebook profile, and it's hilarious. I love him, and he's so much like me it's just really funny. I swear, his favorites lists look almost identical to mine.

And then there's this:

On the homosexuality scale, with 0 being perfectly straight, and 10 being perfectly gay, I'm about a 3. I moved up a little because I saw Sufjan in concert.

Tonight.

When Aimee shows up, call me.

Whoo!!!

And a Mitch Mojito, too? And a Tony?

Here's a bad picture of Tony....
