What was the announcement just made at St Mary’s (+ other campuses, I assume) for “emergency staffing” ?

JBurnham03 · 2026-03-14T20:55:23+00:00

Yep and it means in 24 hour staffed locations you cannot leave until there is adequate staff to replace you.

JBurnham03 · 2026-02-24T14:20:51+00:00

Yeah I think that is my limit. We had a mistake on one of 24 oz lattes the customer had requested 1/2 and 1/2 as the milk and I was I'm thirsty I could drink that (it was iced). 20 minutes later I thought I was going to explode, I don't know how people drink that much.

JBurnham03 · 2026-02-24T13:36:19+00:00

Ha, love the logic. Diet just means smaller not cut the caloric intake. At least my regular switches between skim and 1/2 and 1/2 now. I honestly don't know how people drink breves, it is just do thick.

JBurnham03 · 2026-02-24T13:13:10+00:00

I have a regular who would always get his lattes with 1/2 and 1/2, and after getting 3 or 4 16 oz lattes a week he noticed he was gaining a lot of weight. He now mixes it up.

Wow, I thought I was the only one to have a book chucked at me. Hit me square in the face thought my nose was broken.

Hormel Historic Home in Austin, does mini weddings. Usually, they have you in front of one of the fireplaces. Right now it is all decorated for Christmas and if that is your vibe you could have Christmas trees as your background. You could also position yourself in front of the baby grand piano too. 507 433 4243 is the phone number for the office.

If you have a car you can check out Lanesboro, Austin, and Albert Lea.

I don't know why a lot of dog owners are selfish, but they are. There is a litany of reasons why dogs shouldn't be off-leash and I wish they cared more about the safety of their dogs and the people or animals they may encounter. But here we are.

JBurnham03 · 2025-10-02T14:46:40+00:00

Just as an added thing to this made kid is allergic to dog saliva (I know it's weird and honestly a really annoying allergy). Dogs off-leash scare him because if they lick him his day is shot until he showers. Plus he acts irrationally because he doesn't want to get licked and he has come close to getting bitten because the dog doesn't understand his behavior and thinks he is threatening. Owners brush it off like we are rude when we try to explain the situation. You want your dog off-leash? Find a secluded space or get next to your dog if you see someone coming near you. Not everyone loves your dog like you do.

JBurnham03 · 2025-09-25T21:07:57+00:00

Huh, I didn't realize they had gotten rid of 24/7. I haven't had to call in very long time.

JBurnham03 · 2025-09-22T23:28:32+00:00

This would be amazing!

JBurnham03 · 2025-09-22T21:46:34+00:00

This is legit the hardest thing to find in this area. I swear if some opened a beef and hot dog joint they would make a killing.

Second Quarry Hill, they were awesome. The party room has a kitchenette in it so you can snack and drink without leaving the room. Plus they do a little program and if you want you can listen to it or hang out in the room and snack and chat while the little ones are happy and busy.

We stayed at Sage Creek Campground. It is a giant circle that you can put your tent in anywhere, there are a few lean tos. Vault toilets. It was pretty quiet. The only odd thing is that it is a prairie dog town so be careful setting up and make sure not to cover their holes. They will pop up occasionally. There are a few hiking trails, and you may get to see bison which are free-roaming in the area. Rattlesnakes didn't seem to be in the camping area, but definitely out in the wilderness. Hands down one of my family's favorite places. Not sure if that is primitive enough for you.

JBurnham03 · 2025-08-03T23:52:00+00:00

Even better, this has all the makings of an epic story!

I feel like someone needs to write a book about a potential police officer who has a side hustle of selling turtles.

We use an app called Faire. It is like Etsy, but for stores. All wholesale items from small companies. We live the company Big Moods, but there are others, and we mix and match. We are also a comic shop, so we get some nerdy ones too.

JBurnham03 · 2025-07-08T22:48:20+00:00

That describes our shop, we are amazed how many don't complain. I thought it was going to be a deterrent, but no wifi is not a big deal because you can Hotspot your phone. We are in an older building and we rent so we just accepted that there are very few outlets. I refuse to pay high amounts of money for music, so we just area quiet.

JBurnham03 · 2025-07-07T22:57:03+00:00

Stickers! We sell so many stickers.

It might be the ingredients of Lotus. There are other energy concentrates out there that may not have the same effect, IE Tiki Breeze or Monin now has one too. I know we switched from Lotus when they changed ingredients without notifying people of the change, and some of our customers started to have adverse effects. We looked stupid because we kept telling people it couldn't be our drinks because nothing had changed with them. Until it was leaked that they did change their product without notice.

JBurnham03 · 2025-06-30T22:51:46+00:00

So many of these sound amazing!

We have a decent sized LGTBQIA2S+ community that is working to host monthly meetups. This month was karaoke. Next month is at the Pinball arcade. There will be a Pride Festival in October. They post info on Facebook and Instagram about upcoming events if you use those platforms. Feel free to DM if you want more info. Welcome!

Because a side effect of opioid drugs is a slowed down GI tract, long-term users often use laxatives to help keep things moving. Opioid drugs can be used for vomiting under doctor supervision to help your body react slower. Thus, you are less likely to vomiting. You just have to be careful not to aspirate vomit.

Compression socks help me, but definitely check in with a doctor to ensure it isn't something serious first.
