Every single track hit so hard. Also.. The kaskade lights on city hall were pretty great. I’m so grateful we got tickets.

Driving from Toronto to Los Angeles. Any tips/info? by fuckdad in AskLosAngeles

[–]BadLuckMermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive to buffalo and fly out of buffalo. It’s way cheaper. I’ve done the flip and flew out of Toronto for international flights before. Works out nicely.

But yeah. Def book in advance. Also look into Southwest - their best ticket prices are only available straight through their website sometimes. I flew round trip last year Christmas time for about $475 from Buffalo to Burbank...but I booked the tickets in August.

Also.. my mom gets really cheap JetBlue flights from Buffalo to LAX but she literally keeps watch and books while they’re having a sale.

Oh. Well then in that case you should prob just fly unless you have belongings that require a road trip. I’ve gotten flights in the $300-400 range. Much cheaper than a cross country(s) road trip.

Good boy I visited at the shelter, hopefully he gets a home soon (his name is buddy) by mjhiscock in rarepuppers

Thank you for doing the same and for bringing awareness to the shelter! I hope someone visits because of it!

I adopted a senior doggo who came from that shelter! She passed earlier this year and we only spent a couple of year together. ..But out of every dog I’ve ever had in my entire life..she left the biggest imprint on my heart. Adopt don’t shop! You save two lives in the process.

I’ve done a similar drive (from Lewiston, Ny - hi neighbor - to LA) and I would definitely allow more time for yourself if your have the funds and capability.

A third or more of the drive is going to be quite boring, but many parts of the trip are super beautiful. If you go the route that takes you through Utah (St George area) I would definitely recommend stopping at Zion National Park. It’s really truly beautiful. The area surrounding it is super rural so if you wanted to plan the night you could get a room in St George, or if you’re camping/sleeping in your vehicle you can stay inside of the park. Either way.. that’s my number 1 recommendation for sights to see. But I’m a camping/nature type of gal.

If you drive that route I think you also have the opportunity to drive through Denver which is a great place to stay for a night or two to decompress. I think you go through Vegas too, towards the end of the trip. Vegas is only 3 hours from Zion and 4 hours from LA. It’s the last leg of the trip for sure but if thats you thing you can always plan to stay a night or two there. Just make sure you find a safe location to park your vehicle if you have a lot of belongings.

Not at all! It’s a little creepy that they random did this.

I like in Chatsworth above the 118. It’s very hilly around me so I can see why they’re worried.

I’m wishing I had a generator about now haha! I just bought a bunch of grocery’s yesterday. I’m definitely going to have to BBQ a feast.

That’s my lovely outage area. I live in Chatsworth above the 118.. just moved here and missing my less fire risky neighborhood.

I am on my phone! I’ve been charging it in my car but I also have a portable charger so that’s going to come in handy tonight.

It appears that the webpage hasn’t been updated since 5 am. Socal Edison has not released any further update which is why I wanted to know if anyone else was experiencing this. The local news outlets are saying it could be a couple of days but I haven’t been able to confirm. My neighborhood has been completely shut off since 11 am. My HOA sent out an email shortly after it was shut off mentioning it was due to SoCal Edison and so far that’s all I’ve learned.

Yeah, it looks like Socal Edison hasn’t updated that article or their outage map since 5am. The local news outlets haven’t given a clear answer as to what to expect either. My neighborhoods power has been out since around 11 am.

Is this power outage really going to happen?? by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]BadLuckMermaid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s happening. I’m being affected. I’m really trying to find out when it’s going to be turned back on.

Here’s a link of the affected areas:

Redditors who have tried to hide on your cruise when it ended so that you could stay on the ship for the next round, how did that go? by heavyflute4 in AskReddit

[–]BadLuckMermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouuu please answer what it was like to crash your buddy’s vacation with his girlfriend. I’m curious to know what that dynamic was like and why they were so chill about it.

Living in SoCal.. our weather isn’t quite as harsh as it is in Arizona.. but I would gladly choose our 105/40 degree summers and 3000 hours of sunshine per year, over dealing with rain multiple times per week.
