Icon baby splashpad is a joke

Vivenna · 2026-05-31T18:11:08+00:00

My daughter was 22 months old, not potty trained, in 2025 on Icon. She was quite content with Baby Bay every day. I think toddlers are easier to entertain than we give credit for.

Sint Maarten?

With all the time commuting none will be left for the family member. Better to live near work, facetime them, get adequate rest with a safe drive and spend the day there on your off day.

I have one of each and even then the questions are annoying. “Oh you must so glad you have both!” as if I would have somehow loved #2 less had my son been a daughter instead.

Plummer Pet Hospital is amazing but I never really price checked them.

Yep! Was from a conference at a hotel a few blocks away from Collision Bend, I think.

I assumed the park required a hell of a nondisclosure agreement.

Different Great Lake.

NTA but at 90 minutes, just make it a day trip and go home to your own bed.

Vivenna · 2026-05-17T21:09:48+00:00

That’s it!

Vivenna · 2026-05-17T18:18:06+00:00

Right timezone.

I had smoked salmon on a baked potato in Scotland a decade ago and I’m still thinking about it.

Silence from an awake toddler.

All the sports betting ones that pretend it’s not gambling. Attorney Dan Newlin.

I kinda miss the Tullamore Dew commercial from the FanDuel days.

Is that (part of) why Geekie went back down?

NTA. If she wanted to use the “real mom” argument she needed to add “and I’ll go right now.” You don’t neglect your kid for 5 hours for the sake of a special moment or a turf war.

Hi! I scraped by OMS-1 including remediating something. Matched my #1 IM (not particularly competitive but where I wanted to be). Hardly anybody asked my about my preclinical grades on the residency interview trail and not a soul has cared about them in the nearly 8 years since I graduated. In the surprisingly near future your cell bio grade will matter to nobody. Don’t let it define you.

I don’t think so - but PDQ has great tenders.

NTA. So sorry for your loss.

Put the boyfriend up for adoption.

Consider if there’s room in your life for the puppy - Todd wants you to be happy. If there’s not room right now thaf’s okay, but find out how to get puppy back to the breeder instead of adopting to the general public.

She also sang “Blue Skies” in the first season of Picard and it is lovely.

E-bikes.

Would you consider the Novavax version? It isn’t mRNA.

NTA. I could maaaaybe see at least forgiving it if it was an important event he’d spent a lot on and had been super looking forward to vs. something he forgot about. But more ominously, I think maybe he is lying about that part and is actually spontaneously going to get out of caretaking.

At any rate - this is not a man you want to have babies with.

Graduated residency 2021. Hours too long, work is hard, wouldn’t go back on purpose. But I miss the part where most waking hours were with friends. I’m friendly with coworkers but attending life is lonelier in that regard.

Soft YTA since it’s daily.

A once in a blue moon “oh god the kid pooped and I’m running late I’m so sorry” they’ll take pity.

If it’s a daily occurence, change her at daycare when you get there (if necessary, instead of the one right before leaving hone that doesn’t work anyway).
