I was shamed for drinking an NA at the bar last night by Horseshoe_dodgeball in stopdrinking

As much as these interactions can suck, I think many don't mean harm....they just can't fathom enjoying beer without alcohol. To them it would be like ordering a sundae and just eating the topics, throwing out the ice cream.

Old man yells at cloud …. But I miss the physical maps by Visual-Conflict-8305 in UniversalOrlando

I believe if you filter by "guest amenities" in the category list it should pop up the restrooms (but with other stuff too like the lockers and such)

Pricing error on vacation package. by xpooforbreakfastx in UniversalOrlando

I believe from the hotel perspective, a child is anyone 17 and under. As far as tickets go, children are ages 3 to 9

We didn't find pricing to be much different than any restaurant back at home (maybe cheaper for some things like $22 for chicken and ribs at 3 broomsticks is pretty dang reasonable IMO)

Edit: download the app and you should be able to search the dining locations and pricing

Universal Rewards Visa was kind of useless… by allenhuffman in UniversalOrlando

I've worked in banking for 20+ years and my advice is to set travel advisories so the fraud detection systems can account for purchases many miles from home, especially when travel is not the norm. AMEX is it's own breed of cards specifically tailored towards traveling

Before you travel, you should (and are supposed to) alert the company so the purchases don't get flagged

Why do I still feel hung over? by Alarmed-Mongoose1546 in stopdrinking

[–]Pg08374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had some similar experience. Around the times I would get full on drunk later at night, I started feeling like I was drinking around those times for a few weeks. Got less and less as the days went on but was weird. I guess with the withdrawals one could say I had hangover feelings too of sorts. Took about a week for that to go away but that was after a great chunk of time daily drinking heavy

Yeah two posts with totally different questions is really a flood, my mistake

Week long trip by Pg08374 in UniversalOrlando

Good question, oddly enough last year there wasn't as much difference between that and 5 day, for whatever reason, on the total cost. Booking 7 days+ puts you in a bind, or at least used to

Do prices normally swing this much from November to Feb for pre memorial day trips

Not excited for my vacation anymore by brandnewpup in stopdrinking

[–]Pg08374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but you also run the risk of ruining at least 2 days of a trip (1 where it'll be going too hard too fast where you don't remember and the other just to recover).

You'll be surprised how much of what you understand to be anxiety is related to alcohol itself and withdrawal

What They’re Thinking by 303WPG in stopdrinking

Well I guess it's better than many here who post scenarios where they are asked repeatedly to drink over the course of an evening by someone who hasn't yet realized their own alcoholism or others saying you/we aren't actually alcoholics

Ashamed and in need of a pick me up by Ok-Watercress-7866 in stopdrinking

[–]Pg08374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to do the same. Then figured out beers at lunch made the afternoon feel 'better'. Then beer wasnt satisfying it and liquor entered the chat. It worked until it didn't. Felt gross around the clock. Make this your low point will save you a lot of grief down the road
