Tipping-We talked this morning about tipping your servers, but also tipping people that come and do work at your house. Scott tipped his painter, I've tipped my tile guy, do you think that's a little much or is it OK? We had a mechanic call in and say when he gets tipped, your car moves right up to the front whether you were the last one there or not. Also, what do you typically tip at a restaurant. I'm a 20% unless you were awful, then you will still get 10%-15% from me.

$25 Pyramid-Erica played this morning and $5 rolls over to tomorrows game.

What did you plan for so long that was over in the blink of an eye? Great calls from studying for weeks for an exam and then it was canceled, weddings are a great example too. Another was a girl that spent so much time finding the perfect dress, getting her hair and nails done, and looking perfect for graduation and it was over in 2 seconds when they called her name and she got to shake hands with the principal.
