Gud, the one at Powell is v. pretty, but I think the Thorncrown one is prettier. (Maybe it's because it's in the woods.)
And there are so many cute B&B's in Eureka, and the Crescent is lovely...it's such a cute town, and would be cheaper than a communsurare experience with hotels, chapel and reception in KC. I'm excited. I hope she goes this route. (Also, if she has 3 attendents, I will be one, and have an excuse to buy a rockin' cocktail dress in the black, silver and forest green color palette. ME LIKEY.)
We've talked about this before but I abhor tipping. I wish that employers would pay their employees a decent wage and then charge accordingly.
Yeah, but until they do, we gotta. I find that asking how to tip when paying for a service usually gets an answer--after all, they want to make it easy for you to tip as it makes for happier employees!
CMT = Certified massage therapist, I believe.
Oh right! Der. I was thinking like EMT. I think you have to be one to do massage here so really wouldn't have impact on tipping or not.
Oh, my. Hawaii Five-Oh made me tear up. I feel kinda dirty.
Tonight's progress: [link] Lot of cranny spaces and inventiveness. And need to do paint touchups later.
I've got other stuff to do tomorrow, hope to finish that up on the weekend. Then the second floor spindles. Then the sanding and getting the stain up more. And then I have to figure out stains and finishes. And then I need to fix the floor seal where either stripper or the tape took it up. Spring banister party?
I get about a $25 haircut at a Beauty Brands (about 40 minutes), and I tip $5. On my $14 brow wax (about 7 mins.), I tip $2.
I am a polite, cooperative prompt customer; there's no massages or anything, and that's what I can afford. If I come off as a cheapskate, well, I'm cheap because I'm broke. I tip a few dollars more if I get a terrific, nice stylist who makes me look fab. I have easy, easy hair, so if it's basic, I tip basic.
I tip $10 for a 60 minute massage, unless they talk too much or start late and end on time.
I've never had a shampoo person, so I've never had to tip. I would find it weird to tip someone I assume is making minimum for doing their 5 minute job.
I always tip valets and housekeeping in hotels. They do heavy/gross stuff for shit pay, and tips are part of their salary.
