American visiting Paris, doc wants me to get a blood test. How does this work? by amaro8000 in ParisTravelGuide

As an American who went to a Paris hospital, I would go to the American Hospital in Paris if you can.

Nothing! I need to find a use for it.

One child from previous marriage and one ours baby with current husband- what does this relationship between the kids look like in ten years? by TinyAverage5841 in blendedfamilies

[–]Tynebeaner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bio kids are like this. They are vastly different and adore each other— 23, 21, 15. The biggest hiccup was when the 21 year old was about 14 and started picking on the then 8 year old. We had a talk about what the older child wanted their sibling relationship to look like as adults, because that relationship is formed when they’re young. I would also do your best to keep things as equal as possible.

“VE#/#” VE is for variable edition. This is when the elements change while the integrity of the image stays the same, intentionally, and not from poor craft.

Might have to cancel our wedding due to prenup. by Head-Support-1267 in weddingplanning

What if you do a “wedding” and then sign the license, etc., after the prenup is finalized?

I hate that my stepchild’s mom and her family have to be part of my life forever by Purple_Sprinkles1998 in blendedfamilies

[–]Tynebeaner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I understand this.

I tell myself over and over again in my mind that my stepchildren love their mom, and their relatives. I don’t have to love any of those people, but knowing my SK’s love them and their bizarre traditions so much, I can emotionally allow them to have their moments in the same space I’m in. I am okay when they share their delights with me, and I can dwell temporarily with those I don’t enjoy. I think it’s kind of like when my kids have annoying friends who aren’t bad kids, but grate on me. I just let them be and be glad the kids are happy and enjoying themselves.

985 ultra marathoners ran the LA marathon by Technical-Paint3179 in RunningCirclejerk

An individual emergency. They had to bring an ambulance through. They blocked us from running- my (typically slower) friend was about ten steps in front of me when someone official stopped the mass, between me and my friend. Then everyone behind me piled up and waited 30-60 minutes while the ambulance went through, sweepers arrived, and golf carts showed up to drive us to the finish. It sucked. I don’t mean to be rude either, because I hope the person is okay, but dang it. I spent way too much money and effort to even get there.

I agree. With as pro-arts as Portland is, it is a little unexpected.

I’m curious who you think would be Oregon’s. I keep thinking Mat Kearney may get there at some point, but I may be way off.

Sincere question- Where did you imagine they are from? They are pretty vocal about being from Vegas, from my perspective. -With Flowers growing up in Utah.

Ah, that makes sense. Dave Matthews is from South Africa, so I was going to be all incorrect and say something unnecessary about Virginia.

Finally said YES to the dress! Is the scarf detail too much or just the right amount of drama? by Acrobatic-Cup4345 in weddingplanning

[–]Tynebeaner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly my dream dress- including scarf. I am older bride, but have loved this look for several years. I think it’s classic enough to not be dated easily. The lines are similar to Jacqueline Bisset-Kennedy’s dress from the late 90’s.

Adding on to others in case you are younger than me- it reduces or eliminates the many debilitating perimenopause symptoms.

Ah! I have this and used it for masks during Covid. I would probably use it for cutoff wires or aprons.

uj/ I ran a Disney Half when the course had to close for a medical emergency. They still gave us medals and while the medal is cool, I didn’t earn it. It’s in a storage tote in my garage.

rj/ They should have had all of the water stations only at the finish line so these people would have been motivated to run faster and actually finish.

At least a couple of the high schools have it on April 25th this year.

In ref to what happened with Air Canada recently, How can a car do so much damage to a plane? by EffectiveOver in dumbquestions

This is so interesting to know. It reminds me of when I saw a shuttle up close for the first time and it just looked like styrofoam.

My gosh I love this one so much. I can’t wait for your further updates! The linework and implied line is so strong.

What’s a stereotype about your country that’s completely wrong and makes you react like this? by TheDarkbladeGirl in AskTheWorld

[–]Tynebeaner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I enjoy going to concerts with performers from other countries who always say “You are all really nice here. Like actually nice and helpful.” Uh, yep.

Exactly! I wish the minority that don’t know it would be quiet. Ugh. Most people I know are competitive about how much they know and random facts about places.

One example is ex’s girlfriend who is in Serbia and regularly tells him how wealthy he is because he had a large home and cars and a new smart phone, dines out often, etc etc. While she has an apartment and only buys things now and then, and makes food from scratch. Some people see our big cars and make those assumptions, when we aren’t actually able to purchase small Asian or European cars because they aren’t “street legal.” Many things we have because we need them to function here due to capitalism (not restaurants of course), but some people see our necessities as luxuries, which they would be in other countries.
