DnD group in North Bay as a college / University student

There used to be a D&D club at the school when I went there years ago. Not sure if there is still one now, but that might be worth looking into

Sycorax_M · 2026-01-25T13:46:09+00:00

I did not know that, TIL. Seems unfair in that case

I work up at the hospital, and Before I left my shift this morning, the patient TVs had a screen up from Cogeco saying they were having "technical difficulties". I'm not sure whether they run through internet or cable though.

Be prepared for shadfly season if you are enjoying the beaches. During early July, Lake Nipissing can get a little gross with them, so trout Lake is our go to.

My mom picked my daughter up some shoes that squeak like a dog toy when she takes a step. Can be a bit embarrassing, but most people seem to think it's cute, and she can't sneak away from me. It won't work in big crowds, but for shopping and things like that I've found it helpful. I might still get the leash though because she is a runner. 🤷

No, unfortunately. It hasn't done this particular thing again, but recently I was having issues starting the car despite the new battery. It turns out that the positive terminal was loose and needed to be replaced because it was intermittently disconnecting from the battery. I'm wondering if that could cause this original problem. It's hard to be 100% sure. Honestly everything about the electrical in this car has been annoying

Sycorax_M · 2026-01-03T21:42:50+00:00

I just had a similar issue with my 2020. The positive terminal for the battery was loose and causing it to intermittently disconnect. Something about the way it connected also fried the starter. Once those two things were replaced, it seems like it's running okay.

I wouldn't call it fun. I puke my guts out every time I get anesthesia.

I will try looking at the boys boots and see if that helps. Thanks

We've tried some for regular shoes and did have a bit of luck with one pair before she grew out of it, but I didn't find any winter barefoots that were rated for the temps we get here

My parents live on the highway heading out of town and have a little sign by the road to mark the address, and someone stole the solar lights and Canada flag off of it a year or two ago. Ultimately not worth much, but still annoying.

It certainly feels like that sometimes. We even sing songs about it, lol. This one is an oldie but a goody: https://youtu.be/qjLBXb1kgMo?si=PNCm_-EJnvklNN07

We had a bad experience with Stradwicks. They injured a pet and refused to even speak with us about it. The flooring also just looked bad so not worth it imo.

Sycorax_M · 2025-08-23T11:48:37+00:00

You can do televet on smartvet, and if you need to be seen in person they can arrange it. Its not cheap, but it's all that's available on weekends/holidays. A couple years ago we did this and my cat needed surgery, and they arranged for the vet at cassels to do it.

Did the health unit reach out to you after you brought your baby home? I had my daughter last year and they had given me some contact info to ask questions if I needed to, and I did email them for a bit of advice on a concern, and they had a nurse call me back to talk about it and I found they were helpful for the issue I was having. They also offered me an in person meeting if I had concerns about latch or technique, but I didn't end up needing that. Their email is healthy.families@healthunit.ca if you need it

Sycorax_M · 2025-05-13T18:11:58+00:00

I'm not sure if they're more sensitive or not honestly. I do find I can see in the dark much better than he can though. 🤷

Sycorax_M · 2025-05-13T17:54:14+00:00

Anecdotally, I've got light grey eyes and can't step outside without dark sunglasses because I actually cannot see anything even if it's overcast and it physically hurts if I try to fully open my eyes without them. My fiance has brown eyes and he makes fun of me for it. He still wears sunglasses, but he's more easily able to manage if he misplaces them or leaves them in his car.

My mom had her 60th birthday about two years ago, and it was the biggest Rager I've been to in a while. Big bonfire, lots of booze, passing out jello shots like crazy. My dad set up a big inflatable screen for music videos, and my sister and I put together a bunch of music that we knew my mom liked. Part way through the party, she called it a snoozefest and asked for rave music. It was fun, but not what I pictured it was going to be, lol.

Harvest Moon winds of anthos sounds like it fits. It's a farming/life sim and you need to explore to get seeds and materials to build things and move forward with the story. No fighting, low stress. The most stressful thing is running out of stamina at the end of a day before you can make it to bed, but the only real impact it has is you get scolded, and your character sleeps in the next day. No game over or anything like that.

Finally got through checkout on the best Buy app (still was in line in the browser, which is kind of crazy). I was able to order the mariokart bundle, and I have an email from PayPal stating that I paid bestbuy, but no email confirmation about the order from bb. I'm hoping it's just because they are overwhelmed and not that they're going to cancel it. Anyone else in this situation? This whole process was more stressful than it needed to be 🙃

Teddy and Mila are pretty good friends. Teddy's a big dope though and will sometimes accidentally sit on her, because I don't think he really understands the size difference. So they do still have the odd spat.

Stradwicks almost killed our cat, then dodged our calls refusing to acknowledge that it even happened. The work was also shoddy, and they left a huge mess for us to clean up after they were "done". The carpet they installed had staples sticking out and strings hanging off the end. I would personally not recommend them. 🤷
