It finally warmed up here in Orlando. It's been really chilly all week.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

Central Market is awesome. Our local grocery is the same owners, so now I will be able to return the Twin Brooks bottles I have around from Metropolitan Market. (Golden Glen is what I have a standing order for at the Ballard Farmer's Market.)
The TB milk is nice. GG does the better eggnog though.

Central Market does indeed rock. I'm excited because the Yakima Fruit Market just opened up for the season this week. Third Place Commons farmer's market won't open until May at some point and I'm looking forward to that.

So I'm trying to hang pictures, and I can't get anything to line up, and I can't them to stay level, and I'm ruining my walls and I'm getting very frustrated.
This is one of the pictures I'm trying to hang.

I wish I could give you some advice Tom, but I can only commiserate. I have so been there and I have the holes in the wall to prove it.

Heh. A little cognitive dissonance, eh?
Since I realized that none of my walls or ceilings are quite at right angles to each other or the ground or in any way straight, my pictures being crooked bothers me a lot less. It still bothers me, but not in a way I feel driven to try to fix.

It looks like the debit charge from last night's restaurant meal went through without the tip. I know I added a tip and put a new total. Has this happened to anyone? Best remedy suggestions?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Megan, apparently it runs without tip first. At least, that's what I was told when I asked here.
I admit, I never went back to check and see if it ran again.

When that has happened to me it has always been corrected without me doing anything in a couple of days (ie, next time I looked, the total included the tip).

Sometimes it'll show up without the tip and then later reset to include it. Some function of the fact that the initial approval is only for the pre-tip amount. I'd give it a few days.
