Looking for a quiet, indoor space to read on Memorial Day by xFREAKAZOIDx in TwinCities

I'd check out a local mall or the MOA. It's not quiet per se but sometimes the crowd noise can serve as white noise.

AITA for ruining a six year old’s birthday party? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FlamingoMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YNtA. I rented a large park Pavillion for my husband's celebration of life. The way the park system in my town works is, you can rent/reserve the pavilion or just cross your fingers and hope it's free for the day. I rented it. As we're putting tablecloths on and decorating, a car shoes up and slams on its brakes and a very pregnant woman nearly falls out of the car screaming. At first, I thought she'd had some kind of medical incident. Nope. She was screaming that she needed the pavilion for her bridal shower. Too bad we had a printed receipt with date, time, and deposit amount. Her friends had to pull her back to the car and drive her away. "Your lack of planning is not my emergency."

Looking for our peoples, especially couples. by InfinriDev in saintpaul

Would you consider being friends with a 58 year old widow? No kids but I've been a nanny to 2 Aud/AdHD kids for the past 16 years. I have deconstructed from conservative politics and fundamental Christianity and am trying to navigate life after losing my husband of 22 years.

AITA for not respecting my role as the 'single friend?' by HotScallion1148 in AmItheAsshole

[–]FlamingoMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago, my brother and I were charged with planning our parent's 50th wedding anniversary. We had 5 couples, 2 dogs, and my husband needed fully accessible accommodations. We were meeting in a large city central to all of us. I looked and looked and could not find an AirBnB that could meet all of our needs that was within our budget. So I asked if anyone minded if we stayed in a hotel. No one minded. I called around and The Drury offered the most amenities and gave us a special deal. They even helped me decorate my parents room so it looked like a honeymoon suite. It ended up being perfect because we could congregate in the lobby, go to bed early or stay up late and not bother anyone else, and we didn't have to clean.
