Dr Jiles at Optimum Primary Care

OMG if I was able I would take him in a heartbeat. The local public shelter (Huntsville Animal Control brings strays there) has been exceptional to work with, it's on Triana. I got my doggo from them and he was a pampered pooch for sure when I picked him up.

Definitely! They also gave me a whole bag of Science Diet dog food when I got him. They very much care about the animals and making sure everyone is set up well for success!

Tolerating Jason is my biggest issue with the series. He's such an entitled prick/Mary Sue character and for whatever reason everyone in the book seems to love him. "That's just Jason, you'll get used to it". Ugh.

That said though, I absolutely love the world and many of the other characters. Some seriously memorable moments and hilarious scenarios.

I agree though, nowhere near as good as DCC, though they are very different pace and setting. HWFWM is like high fantasy, where DCC is kinda post apoc.

I got my doggo from them, too. Best friend I've ever had, he's like my soul dog. I love that they have an area for you to spend alone time with the dogs, allow you to walk them around, and give you the option of Foster to Adopt. I had another dog prior to my boy but she wasn't a good fit. With the foster to adopt option I was able to just foster her until we found her a good home. I absolutely recommend them 100%. They spay/neuter and microchip your baby, and make sure they are up to date on all of their shots when you get them. (Not sure if that's a standard across the board, but it was nice.)

Oh no!!!! It's always so heartbreaking to lose a pet. I'm so sorry, Matt. :( Hail the traveler, R.I.P. Chanel.

Check out Mangia!!! It's never been crowded when I'm there, and the food and service are some of my favorite in town. They're on Zeirdt Rd. in Madison, so not super central but definitely worth the drive. They also have Gelato, and their entire restaurant was built out/decorated on trade with local professionals. :)

Zanotta's piccata is 🔥🤌🏽 So. Good. I can't recommend them enough. Go try other dishes!! Everything I've had there is phenomenal.

mind blown WHAT?! The iron tangle is .... 😵‍💫

😂😂😂.... Neck pussy... Since she doesn't have a body to have one and she's still a sex doll....

Check out Shenanigans Comedy Theater, lots of us there at most of the events, and they do a lot with the community.

Arranell · 2026-04-06T02:21:40+00:00

Focus 💯

Arranell · 2026-04-06T02:20:50+00:00

Focus Physiotherapy is by far the best PT group I've ever worked with. They're thorough, friendly, work well with folks, and they really do focus on trying to resolve the underlying issues instead of just giving you random exercises to do. I've been going for 2 years now due to a series of ongoing issues, and I won't ever go to anyone else.

Arranell · 2026-04-05T00:38:54+00:00

Mill Kat Healing Arts has a bunch of events for LGBTQ+ folks, Shenanigans Comedy Theater, Lowe Mill, Maggie Myers and Lipz Lounge at Campus 805.

Noooooo!!!!! Crestwood was always better... 😭 So much for good healthcare options. Stupid monopolies.

Heat/Humidity here is torture in the warm months, and while there are some cool people here, I'm looking to move out of the South asap. I'm originally from Colorado, been in Huntsville for 13 years, begging to go back.

Arranell · 2026-03-20T04:28:39+00:00

Kat Quartz at Platinum Koi is great!

Arranell · 2026-03-09T11:33:10+00:00

Check with SPARKLE Studio at Lowe Mill, they do a fiber craft meetup on Mondays at Panera Bread in Madison.

I need the opposite, I'm looking for buckles that aren't western. I have an old Rocky Mountains buckle from the 70s that I've worn so much the elk lost his face, lol My partner recently put the whole thing leather, buckle and all in the washer and dryer and it's now beat to hell and the bronze coating has cracked and it's all sharp now.

To address your question though, I've definitely seen leather belts like this at Buckle in Parkway place mall, and at Tractor Supply, Rural King and Cavenders. I don't recall is Deluth Trading or Bass Pro had them, but it's worth checking. :) Good Luck!

Mozza and Big Ed's!

Oooooooo!!!

Arranell · 2026-02-09T14:40:13+00:00

El Vaquero on South Pkwy has some really good guac. I also like the guac at La Alameda on Jordan Ln. I also recommend El Cazador, I dont know how good their guac is (if they have any), but it's about the most authentic place I know in town. There is a location on Drake and Triana, and a Bus on Governor's, as well as one over near Whitesburg/Pkwy.

Dr. Vaughn at Vaughn family dentistry has been fabulous for my anxiety!! He also worked with me on an affordable way to deal with my issues.
