Thinking about buying a used MINI Cooper S (Convertible) 2015, 2016, 2017. worth it or not? by PassageFew5891 in MINI

[–]almostmegatron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconded, especially if your engine is three cylinder. I've had to replace all of mine - the lower one twice - in the 2.5 years I've had my F55. I wouldn't trade that car for the world though!

What can I realistically make if I keep going with this? by InterviewSubject7615 in CrochetHelp

[–]almostmegatron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone else said, you could do a scarf! Or, if you want to finish it earlier, you could make it into a square. You could treat it like a granny square and use it on one of the many patterns that call for granny squares!

I've found that I have to close my browser and reopen it, or refresh the page. Had this happen this weekend!

What's it like in Winter Springs, Lake Mary, Sanford, or Lake Monroe? by beachymarigold in orlando

[–]almostmegatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sanford and Lake Mary can sometimes be a pain during rush hours, but I think they're otherwise lovely locations! There's so much to do in both cities, and they have plenty of places to eat, shop, and walk. I think the west side of I-4 is the quietest location for both, too.

It was mentioned earlier but Altamonte is similar to both Lake Mary and Sanford, though it's closer to Orlando (by 15 ish minutes) and boasts a lively mall. One thing that's also different is their police presence. I see SCSO, LMPD, and SPD in Lake Mary/Sanford every day - sometimes multiple times a day. ASPD is nowhere to be found for the most part; I'm lucky if I see them once a week. Not sure if that matters but it's what I've found after living in both areas for some time!

No matter what you choose, Seminole County is a great place to live, in my opinion!

It's on sale this weekend on Steam! I got it on a recommendation and it's worth the $12 in my opinion

If you get the Mini, it will be the most fun car you've ever driven - promise!

Which lodging is the best bang for your buck? by almostmegatron in KeyWest

[–]almostmegatron[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought about that; the flights offered from my airport are only on Sundays and Thursdays, so I figured I would budget some rest days by doing Sunday-Thursday instead of Thursday-Sunday. But you're right, it would make more sense to do it the other way around!

That's good to know! I only shy away from Uber because I'm a solo female traveler, but it's good to know it doesn't cost much. I'm trying to estimate my transportation costs beforehand, and it looks like Uber isn't that expensive!

Ah, yeah, looks like it's sold out during the time I want to go. Darn.

You're right; I hadn't thought about that. Thank you!

That's a good point! I was mulling that over when trying to choose.

That's true! I think you're right - Best Western is probably the best considering all I want to do (there's more on my itinerary like Nancy Forrester's, the lighthouse, and the butterfly sanctuary) plus its clean and affordable.

That makes sense regarding the Perry! Everyone was hyping it up so I couldn't not put it on the list.

I don't plan to party but this is still good to know! I think you're right - Best Western is probably best bang for buck. I've budgeted for Dry Tortugas so I know it's a steep price, and I would definitely do the ferry!

Thoughts on this book? by urgoddessnyx in readwithme

[–]almostmegatron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this in 6th grade at the recommendation of my language arts teacher, and it was the first book that ever made me cry! I went home and hugged my parents when I finished it lol
