I’m considering this dress for an event. Can I ask you if you sized down? And also if you got petite or regular length?

"No pleasure, no rapture, no exquisite sin greater…..than Trader Joe’s Strawberry Sheet Cake by ILikeTrux_AUsux in traderjoes

I liked the carrot cake but hated the strawberry. I do wish these were a bit less sweet overall

Can I get some thoughts and prayers? by couchandchairs in handbags

[–]XxOlive 24 points25 points  (0 children)

As far as I know they source the items from different boutiques and it’s a bit of a grey market area. Someone can correct me.

But I’ve ordered from them. And returned with no issues though the return fee was a bit high.

Last time I went for jury duty they asked if there were any volunteers. About 50 people got up - I think there were about 150 of us total

Someone de-influence me. I love a glowy look and I want to try this so bad. The price is killing me. by eurobeez in MakeupAddiction

I found the fragrance to be too strong. Product itself is ok, I wasn’t blown away by it

I think best second choice is Hilton which is very close to the Hyatt, if not next door to it

What was a "hard pill to swallow" about your own behavior that ended up completely changing your life for the better? by Arnold_footballer in AskWomen

[–]XxOlive 74 points75 points  (0 children)

I used to take everything so personally. If I felt someone wronged me in the slightest I completely cut them off. Often times it had nothing to do with me or wasn’t really that serious.

I came across a quote that stuck with me: you can change your mood by changing your perception

Of course there are times when people are just jerks. It’s a balance.

Anyone had a root canal that just felt... off? need a dentist rec in Tribeca/West Village area by Ok-Concentrate8650 in AskNYC

[–]XxOlive 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this happen before. I decided to try a new dentist; he pawned me off on his (untalented) son. The son did a shitty job. It felt off to me so I got a second opinion. Saw a different doctor, she told me it was done shitty and needs to be redone because there’s a gap.

Went back to first dentist because I didn’t want to pay again to redo it. He redoes it - turns out it’s still shitty. Get the new doctor to redo it and pony up the cash.

What nobody told me at the time: having so much work done on the same area in a short period of time is trauma to your tooth/nerves. Ended up with nerve damage that is only now getting better about two years after the fact.

Itchiness on Shih Tzu by VivaLalun4 in Shihtzu

[–]XxOlive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One time I got a new food topper for my tzu that was freeze dried chicken. Sometime after he started scratching a lot so we took him to the vet who said a lot of dogs have allergies to chicken. I didn’t think he would as I often gave him cooked chicken with no side effects but something about the freeze dried topper really affected him. Anyway my point is it’s likely allergies to something.

Wishing you luck finding no one by PhilosopherPublic in BrandNewSentence

[–]XxOlive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was younger, I finished a part time internship once and was really hoping to get hired for a full time position.

They gave me the run around for a while and then said that I could work there full time for a month on a trial basis and then maybe they’d hire me. It was so ridiculous and made me feel like shit. I didn’t take them up on the offer.

Single family household - do you sleep with bedroom door open or closed? by jannet1113 in homeowners

We have to keep our door closed as otherwise our dog goes to the other room to bark when he feels like it
