Yes. You really have to tip. 20%. Sorry. And tax isn’t included in the prices of things. That’s the way things work here and you can choose to spend the whole time being annoyed by it or not. But please don’t make a personal protest that only hurts some of the lowest paid and hardest working people.

I’ve been spreading the gospel of mac & cheese pancakes ever since I saw this video and tried making some. https://youtu.be/ayZYfRXS6Do

My home version is slightly different, rather than cooking macaroni separately I just take advantage of whenever we have leftover mac & cheese.

I was listening to Jonathan Coulton on the drive to an unfulfilling job that I probably would have just kept doing forever because change is hard and scary. I was sitting there that day with “A Talk with George” stuck in my head on a loop.

Don't live another day unless you make it count
There's someone else that you're supposed to be
'Cause something deep inside of you that still wants out
And shame on you if you don't set it free

That was the day I walked out the door, sent in my resignation, and started a career that made a lot better use of my skills.

I have a (rather ancient now) DVD: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0500066/, which contains a nice 20-minute (30 with the meditation) morning stretch. I try to do that every day.

I just did a quick search and it appears that someone has ripped it and put it on YouTube. Maybe grab it in case it gets taken down. https://youtu.be/Z_qdhpYTtQQ
