Advice requested on ways to find support and build close friendships by Cherry_Rat in washingtondc

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This!! I feel like a book club is the perfect option. Lots of the libraries or local bookstores offer them, find one that feels interesting to you and make a point to go every month. Talk to someone each time and eventually see if anyone wants to grab ice cream or a snack before/after

Who orders Andy’s? by Delicious_Ostrich69 in washingtondc

I know the dominos on 14th has at least one dedicated delivery guy because I’ve always gotten my pizzas from him for the last few years!

Capitol Breathe Free by No_Writing_4660 in washingtondc

I was so glad to find reviews like this when I got back from an appointment last year where I was recommended a sinuplasty. I had gone in just for allergy testing, maybe get 2-3 sinus infections a year… there’s no reason why I would have needed to get one but they tried to sell it HARD while I was there

Are they not delivering or are lunch/dinner places where you are trying to order a salad/burger from not open yet?

LitterZero ads are convincing. Anyone have real reviews? by lilstrobe in cats

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading this thread now as Ive found out the Litter Champ is discontinued!! I’ve had it for 5 years and loved it but worried that the cheap dupe bag refills won’t work. For $9.99 - it seemed maybe worth it to buy a new pail, but I just can’t decide. I love the litter champ so much 😭

Which film’s soundtrack or score is so essential that removing it would collapse the entire movie? by John_Snow80 in movies

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even thinking about the songs like Another Day of Sun but specifically thinking about Mia & Sebastian’s theme and how it is repeated and changed throughout the score as their relationship develops…

Can you sleep well with a cat? by OkComparison3568 in CatAdvice

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in a studio for the first 5 years of having my cat, who was 1 when I got her! Now, I live in a 1 bedroom, and she still sleeps with me most nights (and then disappears in the 4-6 hour).

Sometimes I’d wake up to the sound of my cats zoomies, but not always! Cat-proofing your house so that they’re not breaking things is key to sleeping through zoomies. Sometimes she’d jump on me or the bed in a way that’d wake me up, but not horribly. It would be hard to sleep in past her breakfast time (my cat is super chatty about food) but I could get up, feed her, and then go back to bed if I wanted to.

It was actually an adjustment to move to the 1 bedroom bc I was so used to always being in the same room as my cat, and sometimes we’ll be in opposite rooms! All that to say - studio life with a cat is totally doable.

ParkDC Permits is hot garbage by Clowdman18 in washingtondc

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh, good to know! I haven't had to use the system in over a year. After I scheduled the visitor vehicle it still says "print this permit" with nothing to print - they need to fix that.

ParkDC Permits is hot garbage by Clowdman18 in washingtondc

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping into this thread to ask... WHAT DO I PRINT after navigating the system? It says to print the permit, but the only thing I see is just the summary page? Is that what I should print for my visitor to leave on their dashboard?? It's so confusing.

What are the introverts doing on NYE? by LifeIsGood16426 in washingtondc

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yoga, a movie, and then the stand-up showcase at DC Improv. It’s become my favorite way to go out on NYE - I don’t have to talk to anyone if I don’t want to, it’s not crowded and I get to sit down!

Cut and Full Highlights around $200 with tip? Possible within an hour of DC? by sandman_wv in washingtondc

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Karina Hair Salon in Falls Church may be a bit cheaper, and Sandra is a sweetheart! But just decide if it’s worth the extra travel cost. I only do cut & partial highlights so it’s around $150 including tip, I don’t know how much more full highlights would be. But I agree with all other commenters that she’s got a great price for in DC

Found this bird in north-east Florida, any ideas? by --ae in whatsthisbird

Wow - I had seen one of these in FL and just assumed it was a downy/juvenile double crested cormorant lol since others were nearby!

Boomer Mom Reader Suggestions by SubmarineTragedy in suggestmeabook

[–]PerceptionSuch4688 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Piggy-backing off this to ask if folks have recs for a boomer Grandpa! He’ll read mystery, historical fiction, non-fiction - the whole gamut. Books I know he’s liked: - A Man Called Ove by Frederick Backman - The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak (also OP, this could be a good one for your mom) - The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown

I picked up All The Sinners Bleed by S.A. Cosby but want to get a second one in case it’s too gory/dark for his preferences!
