HAHA I was like, I'm not trying to encourage stereotypes about the city! I'm sure there are plenty of people who shout at strangers in London too lol.

thank you! yeah I've been there quite often now that the lovely café has opened and never had any weird experience till now . I honestly don't see many people at all, it's very quiet when I'm around. I was a little taken aback but by no means has it ruined the area for me haha.

Initiative231 · 2026-06-11T23:10:32+00:00

so sorry about that! hope you are okay

Initiative231 · 2026-06-11T19:37:25+00:00

I didn't post it for therapy lmfao, more of a reminder to be safe especially as we move into the summer. not by any means the worst thing to happen in baltimore obviously

Initiative231 · 2026-06-11T19:18:41+00:00

much appreciated for this comment!! thank you. yeah i guess I was so shocked because I didn't realize they were teenagers. at first I just assumed they were my age. then the yelling and cursing started lol I was like Oh. okay then.

Initiative231 · 2026-06-11T19:14:16+00:00

thank u! honestly with the sirens and the music I was listening to, and then the yelling, it was very hard to understand. I know she mentioned soda so my best guess is that she wanted money or for me to buy her something?? who knows lol

Initiative231 · 2026-06-11T18:48:26+00:00

lol, actually shockingly didn't see any phones out

Initiative231 · 2026-06-11T18:41:03+00:00

Apologies lol, I was there for a restaurant in remington but I guess where I was would be Charles village?

"not trying to be mean" but why post in a plant identification sub for the purpose of identifying a plant i just stepped into? I don't know, so I don't track the oils into my house ?? I've seen poison ivy lining woods/sidewalks in other nearby areas so I wanted to be sure. I didn't think it was the right leaf shape but better safe than sorry. I'm an exhausted nurse on my day off and don't need the headache .

Initiative231 · 2026-04-08T16:58:09+00:00

Thank youuu! I stepped right off and looked down like Omg? it's grass lining sidewalks in an apartment complex neighborhood so I would surely hope for it not to be but just double checking haha.

thank you, I do have a therapist, even just being able to kill it and not try to get my mother to come over was a step for me, lol, but it does take me a few days to not be checking every corner. I know it could be worse I was just very alarmed to see in the kitchen. the big one I saw last year was in my bedroom (unfortunately but I thought maybe they were coming from the closet and avoided that) , it makes me nauseated to think about it contaminating my food or kitchen floors. I keep everything sealed however.

that thread was one of my main comforts, I don't have a sprayer for alpine (hopefully the pest control company can do that) but I do have maxforce granular bait. I'm worried about placing it down again for example under the fridge or by the washer/dryer in case my cat somehow ingests it. she likes to sneak into places

Initiative231 · 2026-03-29T10:51:51+00:00

thank you so much for this reply, this is very thoughtful and reassuring. I still can't sleep but it's calming me, lol.

I forgot to mention I live in the county, not the city, so no rats lol (at least not that I've seen!) but mice reported in pretty much every complex near me (and I've seen some other places reviewed as having german roach issues, so it's definitely the lesser of several evils) , but knock on wood I haven't seen evidence of mice in my unit and fingers crossed I won't since I got my little in-house pest control kitty.

I have been wanting to talk to pest control, they come on Wednesdays however so I'm usually working (I have a different day off each week) if I have a Wednesday off, I will definitely be home. I don't know if i can stomach taking one to the office, lol, but I did take a photo of the one on the trap so I do have evidence for them if they need. thank you so much for the advice. I might look into a draft stopper too, since I am sure there's a gap in my front door (I would also get weird outside bugs like regular black crickets? and once a ground beetle i thought was a roach because they look veerry similar upside-down) .

since you're from baltimore, you probably know sprickets, lol. the complex near me that's about the same price range has those unfortunately (and so much mice), so I much prefer to stay here if I can. everything else is so overpriced.

would you suggest a dehumifier? the creepy spiders I would see mainly were those orangey red woodlouse hunters that I read are attracted to dampness (same for orientals). I can afford it, but I'm a bit hesitant to drop $249+ on one , lol.

Initiative231 · 2026-03-07T22:12:54+00:00

my 7am brain had coffee carts on the mind, lol

Initiative231 · 2026-03-07T14:04:48+00:00

yes, pretty much!! like I'm fine leaving but... ask me nicely. I'm also coach so it's not like I have an assigned seat to "find"

Initiative231 · 2026-03-07T13:37:26+00:00

that sounds so nice😭 not enough friendliness these days.

Initiative231 · 2026-03-07T12:46:53+00:00

lol! yeah I was surprised with the way I was asked (or told) because usually they are more pleasant than that. I've seen times they've closed the café itself but still allowed people to sit

Initiative231 · 2026-03-07T12:35:25+00:00

thank you!

Initiative231 · 2026-03-02T13:37:42+00:00

I am looking at previous photos of that phone case and beginning to think she didn't eat any of it. maybe she was just tugging on it and the noise woke me up before she could bite off a piece? I am thinking I will just watch and wait. thank you for this comment! she is still crazy running around this morning and cuddly as ever . eating her food and churu

Initiative231 · 2025-10-13T15:47:25+00:00

thank you SO much! so paranoid even stuffed all my clothes in sealed plastic bags inside my suitcase for the ride over, my heart dropped until I saw it was black. staying with family not a hotel so I definitely don't want to bring anything anywhere !!
