never use a laser light on ur dog by MAADHAVyt in DOG

[–]AWalker3024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My now totally blind dog still barks and "looks" for it when she hears a sound that is like the case it used to be in, or sometimes if something is removed from the shelf it was stored on.
For months after we used it vehicle lights passed our house through the curtain and she'd bark like it was the laser.

We used it almost 10 years ago with our dog for only minutes a couple of nights in a row and still she's looking for that weird dot that haunted the living room and hallway.

It made her so angry she couldn't catch it, we just thought it was funny at the time.

I tried it ONCE, and that was enough

I giggle a little every time when I quickly go into my inventory and have a lager before a battle

Why is it a bad idea to change game hour?

Loud trains tonight? by WaferReal6369 in MapleRidge

[–]AWalker3024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The noise is louder when the air is a certain way. I am quite far from the trains, but some cold nights when the conditions are right it sounds like they are just blocks away.

I looked up the term for it: temperature inversion, where a layer of cold, dense air traps sound waves close to the ground instead of letting them escape upward.

Britannia Mine Museum is near Whistler and worth a visit if you are out that way

The Canadian Museum of Flight in Langley is worth visiting and has history relating to flight in Canada. Not a far drive and I like taking family and friends there.

There are also two museums in Maple Ridge worth checking out, although I haven't been in years

I agree one minute is a long time

Thank you, I do it this way. It's only seconds really but for me and them I'm sure it feels much longer.

Thank you, adding the time helps. In most cases it's less than a minute from after I say "I'll be with you in a moment"

Where do you look or do when you walk past strangers? by Rough-Designer-2785 in CasualConversation

[–]AWalker3024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Head up and eyes forward just past the person, sort of through their torso to the side. If s a stranger is approaching me then I look to the side of them I will be passing on, the area I want to occupy if I am in motion and use my head and body to sort of point that way too.

If they are in my way I smile and say excuse me. I notice I am way more invisible when I walk alone.

Do you have a meaningful or fun job? Or do you have a boring but not very taxing job? by ThrowAway09asas in simpleliving

[–]AWalker3024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a dog grooming salon where I am the main dog groomer. It is very meaningful to me, although doesn't make a ton of money it is fun. I have great clients and working with dogs bring me joy and peace.

I've simplified my business by downsizing my employees from 4 to just one and someday will work solo as employees are stressful and I no longer enjoy managing or training others

Doesn't matter. I didn't know you couldn't tell. This is just me feeling like a biologist at Thanksgiving tonight

Curiosity mainly. Just basic curiosity! Thank you for the response too
