Looking forward to it! I’m hoping to jump right in with La La Luna Sea, will just have to see what tomorrow brings.

ACTION ROLL

I called UPS to protest a $100 fee charged on an under-$300 item. They discounted the brokerage portion of the fee by half for me (wow, so generous), which I paid over the phone, and I requested they hold the parcel at one of their locations for me to pick up because it was a Christmas present for my housemate.

So of course they delivered it to the door, my housemate answered, the delivery person cheerfully announced what the thing was that had just arrived, and charged her the full $100 fee right there.

I spent six months contesting this double-charge and finally scraped back enough from them to constitute a proper refund for her only a few weeks ago. I talked to nine different representatives over the phone and had to explain the situation three different times to the same representative over email. UPS’s indifference and incompetence is staggering.

And a seasonal one in Lord Roberts that’s going these days, every Wednesday from 4-8pm. https://www.directfarmmanitoba.ca/markets/south-osborne-farmers-market/

Both Tuesday and Thursday evenings if I recall correctly!

I love that name for a white cat, chef’s kiss.

Nice! I love the texture on the heel flaps.

Also there’s a knitting community over at https://lemmy.world/c/knitting if you’re interested.
