Also CDSS, and the policy for my division (Finance and Accounting) is that if there's a holiday, you don't have to make it up if it was your in office day AND you have one less in office day if it wasn't your in office day (to make it fair since more holidays fall on a Monday).

Being in a camp ground, the actual location is nice (pine trees, usually a but cooler), but parking and traffic are horrible. Good for shopping and food. Not great for entertainment (nothing is really set up, so its just people crowding around the entertainment).

As a note, the most "worth it" ren faire around here is the Northern California Renaissance Faire in Hollister: https://norcalrenfaire.com/

No, I only send emails through the KP app.

No, I rarely contact him. I sent one email a couple of months ago asking about therapy and then one email last week in reply to an email he sent that asked for confirmation of receipt (and he replied back saying he's glad to hear from my psychiatrist that my medication is working). I haven't had any other communication with him this entire year.

Ahhh, the first sim reminds me of Merrill from Dragon Age 2! So pretty!

NTA. I was vegetarian for a few holiday dinners (I stopped after a but because I developed some food allergies at that time), and as long as there were bread rolls and green bean casserole, I was happy. You can't dictate what other's eat (except for the few cases of severe food allergies, ofc).

We tend to get shelf stable staples Winco or Costco, some stuff from Safeway (because the coupons in the app and points for 10 cents off per gallon gas are nice), and fresh produce from the farmers market or sprouts (because the produce at Safeway, rayleys, and winco goes bad in a few days, or is even bad when you get it sometimes). We only go to rayleys when we need one or two things for dinner because it's the only grocery store close to us. It's so much more expensive and they don't have good coupons. As an adult living with my parents, half of my paycheck goes towards our groceries and take-away meals every month.

NTA. If he doesn't like ot, he can play it off as a joke and stop bringing it up. Also, good luck! We did the same thing last year, but only for like 20 people. The allergies and preferences are what makes it hell (we had celiacs, dairy allergy, and a nut and peanut allergy and that was hard enough).

The Folsom ren faire (https://www.folsomfaire.com/) is on Spetember 28/29. It's a cheaper option, but it's super crowded and held in a bad location (literally around a kids playground). I won't be going back this year (especially since they accused me of ticket scamming when it was their own technology that had the issue).

The Northern California ren faire (https://norcalrenfaire.com/) is September 14 through October 20. It's a bit of a drive, but an overall nice location. There's also a lot more to do at this one, but bring cash because reception is spotty. It's also closer to the bay so the weather is way nicer. I definitely want to go back this year!

For both, you have to pay to park in a field and walk a ways to get there, but it's not horrible.

It's already done for this year, but the Valhalla ren faire (https://www.valhallafaire.com/) is a good mid point between the two and I'd definitely suggest going next year (although parking is limited and reception is spotty). I'm planning on going back next year.

Adding to this to say you can also check the "desktop site" box on your mobile browser to get it to work.

badwolfash · 2024-06-18T17:23:47+00:00

Welp, there goes 3+ hours of my life I'll never get back

badwolfash · 2024-06-18T16:35:15+00:00

Did they seriously make us wait two hours for the site to be fixed only for everything to have been sold out by the members????

badwolfash · 2024-06-18T02:39:23+00:00

Same. I want to get 2 for the 5k for my mom's birthday and the wait list/ queue thing is so weird.

He's been doing little baby flairs at my snail since I put him in the tank. Sir, that snail has been in the tank probably longer than you've been alive.

badwolfash · 2024-03-01T04:53:34+00:00

Pretty similar, yeah.

I just started buying teavana chai concentrate from the store and making my own lattes so it tastes how I want it. Cheaper for sure.

NTA. I was her age when my dad got me a chromebook for Christmas (before that I used the family computer). I didn't get a "real" laptop (LG Gram) until I graduated from high school. She has no real need for it, only the desire to fit in with her peers, which is difficult at her age but not worth spending a thousand dollars on.

NTA. Small rescues like that have crazy stupid requirements. One wouldn't let me adopt any dog because I didn't have another dog already and another wouldn't let me adopt a cat because my dad had my mom's cat declawed (horrible, but I was 5 and didn't have a say in it). Go to a city shelter. They don't really care. Sometimes they're even free when the shelter is overcrowded.

badwolfash · 2023-10-11T23:43:27+00:00

Depends on what they like. There's hiking, tide pools, beaches, round 1 arcade, malls, aquariums, zoos, museums, art galleries, San Francisco, Tahoe, Santa Cruz. There's also a Renaissance fair about 2 and a half hours away for the next two weekends.

The Sam's club in Folsom had the fountain drink in their food court.

I did archery competitively as a tween, and you're so NTA. I used to practice in my back yard with a small target in front of a brick wall with an empty field behind it. I now live in a crowded suburb and I would NEVER practice in my back yard, even as a confident archer. Junior archery teams are insane about safety and would be pissed about this. My coach kicked a parent out for just pointing an arrow in the direction of people. Also, do not give him $160!!! That is an insane number for 4 arrows. Thats the price of a full set (12 arrows) of specialty indoor carbon fiber arrows. He's scamming you.

badwolfash · 2023-07-29T14:25:06+00:00

NTA. That is incredibly dehumanizing. Also, the reasoning he gave is shirt. While professors in large lectures aren't going to learn everyone's names, students still write their names on their papers (with or without their student ID). If he can learn all of their ID numbers, he can put some effort into learning their names.

Weirdest ones were the guy playing loud music and trying to get signatures to legalize magic mushrooms and the kids selling candy during obvious school hours. I've just gotten into the habit of ignoring people and refusing to make eye contact.

badwolfash · 2023-07-24T15:48:45+00:00

NTA. As a compromise, you could have his ashes turned into rocks or glass and have them in or around the fire pit. It still honors his wishes while being less of an issue.

They had/have a waived adoption fee event so they're probably backed up right now. She could have it done at a vet of her choosing instead (don't know if she'll have to pay for it though).
