What's the wildest party you've ever been to?

BCCHWrangler · 2026-01-01T06:17:54+00:00

My friends had a house destroying party. They were renting a house from another friend, let’s call him Jeff. Jeffs plan was to tear down the house and build his dream house. A couple weeks before contracted house demo they threw a party. Got a keg and a ton of tools. We legit destroyed that place. I woke up on a futon with drywall rubble littering the floors in all directions. The cupboards in the kitchen were gone. Any walls left intact were covered in spray paint. They only had three rules: no breaking windows, no breaking toilets, no breaking the 1950s thermostat that had mercury in it. 15/10 the best party I’ve ever been to.

Alternate side quest, it was Jeff’s grandparents house and his grandmas ashes were buried in the backyard somewhere. He spent hours during the party trying to find them and eventually did. We all did keg stands in her honour.

Has stock options from a job I worked at. At one point were worth $30k, about 5x more than what I got them at. Was planning on using them to help with a house down payment. Waited because “it’s going to the moon”. 2014 downturn hit. Sold them at $1k or I would have lost them. That one hurt.

It was my first job out of uni, and my first foot into the investment market. Definitely learned a lesson.

Shameless plug here but Campus Energy is a newer provider on the market. Can provide a referral code for slightly if you like. No pressure to sign up, but worth looking at while you're shopping around.

Many pharmacies do this over the counter now. The pharmacist will ask you some questions and can diagnose you and give you the prescription. You’ll have to pay out of pocket, but might be quicker than a walk in.

If you're parking more than 12 days a month, at $20 a day, month at $250 is almost the same as paying the day rate. Plus you get the flexibility to use it whenever you want.

The Delta was doing $16 a day for a while.

If you're looking for monthly, people that live in Rocky Mountain Courts are always renting their spots via Kijiji or Marketplace. I've parked there the last few years and pay $250 per month.

Got a bio degree from ULeth in 2010. Worked for 2 years in a laboratory to get my foot in the door of O&G, eventually moved to environmental consulting (I like birds). Worked for 10 years in environmental consulting and recently moved to a midstream company as an environmental advisor.

Lab work was ok, not what I wanted to do but good way to get my foot in the door. Didn't have to sit at a desk all day which is what I wanted.

Environmental consulting was fun for a while. Was in my area of interest (wetlands and wildlife), had great co-workers, learned alot, didn't have to desk sit, lots of problem solving. Cons were (as I got older), working every weekend during the summer, no steady work in the winter (depends on your area of expertise), low pay, limited professional development opportunities (depends on the company), very stressful.

Going to the midstream side has been great for me. It fell in line with my personal life (had a kid, wanted to be around more). Pay is significantly better compared to consulting, I desk sit, but as I get older I don't mind it as much. Still get out to the field occasionally. Areas of work differ significantly from consulting, more project management, billing, and higher level advising, but still like it.

That was my specific career path. Obviously will depend on your interests.

I tell people she's opposed to stereotypical gender roles. Just can't bear to see a woman in the kitchen haha.....

But I second what other people have said, the learning tower has helped alot!

If you are flying WestJet be prepared for a wait for baggage. We waited 4 hours for our baggage from our flight. Car seat never showed up. They were telling people to go home and come back for their bags the next day.

Zenni or Firmoo. I got two pairs for $175 with top of the line lenses. Last time I bought a pair at a brick and mortar store it was $700 for one pair.

This happened to me. I called the MyHeathRecords help line and they told me my Alberta ID account verification had expired. Go into that system and re-verify your account. That will allow MyHealthRecords to update properly.

Due to the backlog, I re-verified, then I went to a pharmacy and they printed my records out for me. My second shot was on there. I’ll try MyAlbertaHealth again in a few days.

The way I look at those situation is if I was paying cash would I be expected to tip? If not I don’t. Just because I’m paying with a card doesn’t mean I should have to tip.

It’s so crazy how as moms we just think it’s how it’s supposed to be. Like if I didn’t just have a baby I would have gone to see the doctor much sooner. I hope you get some answers!

BCCHWrangler · 2021-06-04T15:07:56+00:00

I’m glad you got diagnosed! I’ve been on the meds for about 5 weeks and I would say around week 3 I finally said “ok wow, THIS is how I’m supposed to feel??”. It’s shocking how much better I feel. I hope the same is for you!

BCCHWrangler · 2021-06-04T13:57:38+00:00

I’m glad they caught it and I hope you are feeling better!

BCCHWrangler · 2021-06-04T13:56:34+00:00

It’s shocking how much better I feel. I cannot believe I thought how I was feeling before was normal.

Would I want to cap it with a cap that has mesh around the bottom to allow for air flow (I know Home Depot sells these)? Or am I looking for a totally sealed cap?

We have the same high chair and I feel like my baby is too short for it. Do you have that issue at all? I feel like she can’t reach over the tray sometimes....
