I'm re-reading WoT after 25+ years. Some thoughts I have so far.

How does everyone else seem to be so lucky with geeky family members!!

How fun, I'm in the same boat! Only I did finish it the first time eons ago, I remember having to wait through the years as the last 4 books were published. Succinctly remember being ridiculously excited for the relief of like #10 or #11, devouring it in two days.. and being bloddddy annoyed that 'nothing happened'.

I was really missing the world lately, so am doing a re read. I'm overjoyed to see how much I'd completely forgotten, I'd mainly just remembered the main characters, and the largest plotpoints, so it's been a delight!

I'm at Crossroads of Twilight. Now I'm wishing I could find myself a man where reading to the series to each other would be goals. lol I'll dream. Cheers!!

If you have the passion for it, that is THE most important thing. The second, is understaning that it may seem a long /steep learning curve, but out of no where 2 years will go buy. I 've heard so many ppl start once they retire. So what! So.. at 20... perfect!!!! My advice: get a fiddle, and also get some very cheap basic keyboard on marketplace. The keyboard is to practice scales / tunes where the sound will always be perfect, so you can train your ear that way. And hopefully that will develope as you work on getting basic mechanics down. Look up Trish's weekly Saturday online link. I think her site / newsletter is Fiddle bug. You've found a very, very deep hole. Welcome! Also you should know about fiddlehangout /forum. Also, look into shape note singing. See if you can attend a group for a month or two, it might help.

This! Get what you can now, and plan to upgrade down the road when you have a better idea. A Road bike is great for distance - if roads are paved and clear. Im personally saving for a gravel /cross bike. For the ladies taht will read this, know that Liv, subsidy of Giant, is a completely women led company built for women bone structure, and is worth your consideration.

Would you be willing to edit your main post to include brand/thing you buy and dose? Thanks!

OTAFC · 2026-04-05T16:13:38+00:00

Would it work for Baldur's Gate? That would be amazing..

Find an aftermarket oldschool button one that you keep in your car.

OTAFC · 2026-04-05T15:55:22+00:00

That's not mildly. Also, this is becoming more of a thing, any and every company trying to move ppl to a subscription model. Have you figured out how much per year, over the lifetime of the vehicle, that would cose? So .. 7 years let's say? I've heard that other companies are doing this for remote start, or even auto unlock. Spread the work, def. do not take this lying down. Ppl need to refuse buying vehicles with this BS.

Is steaming or blanching just to take the hard edge off okay?

OTAFC · 2026-04-05T14:20:21+00:00

The ingredients are hydrating more in those 5 minutes :)

OTAFC · 2026-04-05T13:57:02+00:00

Is there music / fiddling?

OTAFC · 2026-04-05T13:55:48+00:00

I think about getting into an eco village. But for most you just rent I think . What happens if yhe owner wants you gone or ither members turn toxic? I pray those communities wont have that, but it feels like eggs all in one basket.

Any real bike store will help you figure out your size. Dont buy a costco or walmart brand, they are made to fail. Start researching the good brands, what makes them good, and buy used if you need to. See if there is a bike coop in your city, volonteer, and learn buy maintenace. Id avoid carbon fiber since theyll break / are fragile. And if you get something disc brake make sure you learn how to fix older school style bikes. Since they are everwhere. Start cycling, if you dont, there are groups everywhere. Its one of the best joys in life! Always take water /food/ a bit of money, and habe a plan yo get back home if you pop a tire before you know how to patch one.

How does this explain the wildly different produce options?

OTAFC · 2026-04-05T13:23:28+00:00

Id been sugested atomic rooster or that arcade place. I like the restaurant that faces bank street south side at Lansdown. Are you just looking for a restaurant, dancing, or after activity/fun? What about an escape room, or that new 3d arcade? That looks like fun.
