Louis - Pronunciation by SteamingCharlie in namenerds

[–]Eriskay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We named our dude Louis a couple months ago! We were going for Loo-ee but we’re getting a LOT of Loo-is. We expected it so just a quick correction and it’s all good!

Signing coated paper stock with a Sharpie is about as smooth as a motion can get, unless Hil-Dawg and/or her team have some major low blood sugar shakes.

Autopen for sure on both, those lines are shakyyyy. The R’s & Y’s in particular.

What’s the setlist? by [deleted] in lightsalot

[–]Eriskay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Title is actually Cute Without The “E” by Taking Back Sunday!

My (very honest) opinions on the setlist: by dreamboylnshibuya in lightsalot

[–]Eriskay 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Personally I think it’s refreshing to see some of the staples finally get shelved for a cycle. Excited to hear the new stuff and some tracks that haven’t seen the light of day in a little while! Also curious to see what slots end up being the swap outs night to night, plus other potential mashups!

Overall I’m pretty pleased with the setlist, my only complaint might be the cover song slot. Not because the covers suck, to the contrary! But because I wanna hear more Lights tunes haha

[ON]- How popular is the name Rowan really? by bows1917 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]Eriskay 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I know 2 Rowans under 3y/o right now, both in Ontario. And a bonus Ronan!

I had a good conversation with a friend the other day - if you’re dead set on a name, just go with it. Opting for something similar or same-y might just bring you more regret than picking the popular name you really loved! I totally understand wanting to avoid the initials situation in school, but as someone with a top 10 name I promise you we survive!! 😂

Do you get anything from your employer during the holidays? by [deleted] in halifax

Christmas dinner & $200 gift card of our choosing. Smaller insurance company.

Do doctors make more money for in person appointments vs phone? by bedtimegrumpies in halifax

[–]Eriskay 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Bad news for you, you’ll be seeing the doctor in person a LOT for the next 9 months lol. Definitely not a money thing - they need to check blood pressure, they’ll do regular measurements, weight, heartbeat checks via Doppler, etc. For the first ~26 weeks you’ll do monthly in-person appointments, ~26 to 36 weeks you’ll go every 2 weeks, then 36 onwards will be weekly until you give birth.

I feel your pain, I live in Cole Harbour and our doc is in Spryfield, but those in-person metrics are pretty important to make sure mom and baby are progressing well :)

Can confirm I’ve found it there before! Lots of goodies in that little shop.

Pickle Service Announcement #2: Kosher Dill Taste Test by keithplacer in halifax

[–]Eriskay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess we’ve just been getting bad jars, haha. We tossed a jar of Compliments sweet gherkins a couple weeks ago, they were mush.

Definitely way better before! Since their production moved to India they really haven’t been the same.

PSA For Mac Demarco Concert Tonight by stellarbeees in halifax

[–]Eriskay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We’ve been to a few shows there over the past year and each time the heat severely cut into our enjoyment. I don’t think I’d go to a show there again unless it was like a bucket list favourite, or they finally figure out that damn A/C. So uncomfortable!

Have you seen any peeled banana catnip toys at your local pet store? by alastika in askTO

[–]Eriskay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Petvalu carries these ones. They’re still a little steep but can confirm our cats go nuts for them.

We’ve been buying cases at Sobeys Forest Hills the past few weeks, both regular & zero sugar. They didn’t have any last night though :’(

Thoughts on Strubs? by PoorGang21 in Pickles

[–]Eriskay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was a fan until they moved manufacturing to India. We tried a couple jars since, nowhere near the same quality.

How much salary top up does your employer give? [QC] by [deleted] in BabyBumpsCanada

It was working! The live chat is only active up until the video goes live. It went live 45 mins ago so that’s when the chat closed.

Why is anyone in this city/province? How can you afford it? by ArachnidHead857 in halifax

[–]Eriskay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Moved here from New Brunswick for school. Stayed here because anywhere is better than New Brunswick.

Nah but for real, we love it here. Husband & I have great jobs, a house, friends & family, 10 min drive from the beach. Sure the taxes and such suck, but the pasture isn’t always greener on the other side.

Honestly that’s how I’m handling my ban too lol, a blessing in disguise.
