I stopped by Oakland first to drop off the three frogs I pulled from my tank. Then I spent the rest of the morning in my office until lunch. I went to Wendy&#8217;s a bit late for a cheap lunch, but unfortunately the $1 fry deal was over. From there, I stopped by the shop for a bit and called FedEx about Summer&#8217;s Pixel 3 before heading back to the junior high until quitting time.<\/p>\n<p>After work, I ran by Summer&#8217;s for a while to get Eaddie&#8217;s flute for her concert tonight. I stuck around for a bit to see if FedEx would show up, and then spent quite a while on the phone again to see if I could get an update on the trace. So far, we&#8217;re two business days behind, but that&#8217;s four calendar days without her new phone. While I was on hold, I chatted with a BestBuy rep to pricematch\u00a0<em>Breath of the Wild<\/em> so I could use my $10 reward certificate along with two $10 gift cards to score the game for only $15.<\/p>\n<p>When I finally left her house, Summer had already left the gym to get the girls and head to the concert, so I just took the flute to my house and met her there, then spent the rest of the evening smashing my head against the wall trying to understand why the Switch&#8217;s wireless is so horrible. Evidently forcing it into sleep mode gives you a huge bump in speed, even from an idle and docked status. That makes about as much sense as downloading faster while the console is powered off.<\/p>\n<p><em>Nobody likes a smug plummer.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a pep rally day at the junior high, so I didn&#8217;t start the day with a whole lot of ambition.
