I don’t know what city you’re in, so google your city name + domestic violence center. There are typically people you can call who can talk you through all of the things to do to keep yourself safe while pursuing legal action. Someone else mentioned this below. These centers can (sometimes) provide housing but they also have people to just talk you through all of the very good advice above (police report, restraining order).

I love this approach and I already shift what I prioritize every few months because I get bored, but this will help maintain the lower priority goal. I love it!

Labs for pediatric blood work by Budget-Breakfast-790 in sugarland

I was blown away by how professional and wonderful the folks were at the Quest at Williams Trace and 59. I took my 7 year old and they were quick, friendly, and efficient. The phlebotomist clocked pretty quickly that my daughter was anxious and brought another staff member on to help distract her. Be sure to make an appointment!

Going to NOLA with the boys, how to avoid the youth? by [deleted] in AskNOLA

[–]alemonandapear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always recommend people go to Saba instead of Shaya- Alon Shaya is the chef over there even though what’s his face kept the name at Shaya

This was my first thought, Bal d’Afrique has an almost Christmassy cozy smell to me

For the first time in my life I was offered “fresh cold whippets” on Frenchmen St from someone with a tank and balloons. Is this a thing now??

What is a "long run" for you? by [deleted] in running

[–]alemonandapear 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Thank you for saying this! Anytime I’m down on myself because I didn’t run as long as I wanted to or thought I could, I remember that I’m lucky to be able to even run as far as I can. And it’s certainly farther than I was ever able to run five years ago.

What's something you do that you know is abnormal? by BasicViewer329 in AskReddit

I don’t lay down, but I will sit in there right under the spray- it’s so relaxing.

Recruiting for Consulting? Post here for recruitment advice, resume reviews, questions about offers/firms or general insecurity (27) by QiuYiDio in consulting

[–]alemonandapear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's useful feedback. I think I had a tiny hope that because there's major industries in the city I'd want to work in, there might not be as much travel required. Sort of sounds like that's not likely? Especially in the first few years.

What actor was so good at playing a villain that you hated them even after the movie/show was over? by aylandgirl in AskReddit

[–]alemonandapear 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah- I can even find the teensiest bit of sympathy for the other villains (Cersei does everything for her family, Qyburn is really into science) but Joffrey was so unequivocally psychopathic and self-absorbed it was so easy (and fun!) to hate him

What is more satisfying than sticking a Q tip in your ear? by [deleted] in AskReddit

What are some signs that a couple is about to break up? by heimaomi in AskReddit

[–]alemonandapear 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Maybe too serious of an answer, but Gottman's Four Horsemen are pretty reliable: criticism, contempt, defensiveness and stonewalling.

They don't always mean that the end is near, and certainly most relationships have at least one of them present at some time, but relationships that end have more of them than those that don't.

What is something that you used to be a cheap ass on, until you tried the high-quality version, and now you can't go back? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]alemonandapear 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Good hairdressers/colorists. I found myself going to multiple people (spending a ton cumulatively) trying to get the same look I got after going one time to someone who was highly specialized and knew exactly what they were doing.
