I finished Saint Johns First Aid Training C today.

My dad bought a pool.

Trust: is it inground?

I'm writing 7 essays that are due by Tuesday! Yay!

[hismajesty]

No, above ground - 18 ft. wide x 34 ft. long. (iirc) It was the biggest one the place had, and they said this is the busiest time so it won't be installed until like the second week of June. We have to pick it up, even though they make two trips out here to prepare the land/install, so that's going to happen either tommorow or Monday.

This is the closest image I could find.

[Newby]

That's nice.

[Blaze]

Long, deep inground pools are the best.

[hismajesty]

I agree, but that of course takes more work/money/time(?)/preparation/permits. It also wouldn't fit in too well in our yard I don't think. I think one of the main reasons we got this is due to having a little sister, and an even younger kid next door who frequently plays in my yard. It wouldn't be safe to have an in ground pool as whenever the cover thingy isn't on it it poses a serious hazard. With the above ground pool the ladder of course folds up so it's much easier to restrict entrance to them.

I  had a nice meal today at a fancyish restaurant (The Keg).  The meal came to $85, and I put in $15 for a tip.  But my Dad tried to stop me, arguing that you aren't allowed to give over 10% and other stupid stuff.  I argued that it was good service and a nice meal, and I'm damn well giving away my own money.  Eventually he accepted it

[hismajesty]

$85 for your plate or the whole thing?

[Hitmen]

I'm hoping it's for the whole thing, anyone who pays $85 a plate to eat needs to be beaten to death with their own wallet.

[Blaze]

You think the keg is fancy?  Move to a real city.

Most likely it was for the whole meal.

haha@"...aren't allowed..."

A "fancyish" restraunt named 'The Keg?'

[iago]

No, I think it's "fancyish".  There are many fancier restaurants, but it's above average in fancity. 

Yes, that was for the whole meal.

[QwertyMonster]

I should be getting my pool up. Size is 15ft.

[Newby]

I've eaten $60 meals before..

(As in, a $60 steak for me, a $60 steak for everybody else who bought food, etc.)
