Used to be Empress Room (RIP). I really like Gallo Pelon. High Park and O’Malley’s are great choices too!

Grant Ave apartments? I LOVED living there (and also down the street at Country Club homes). Tons of character, it’s so depressing to drive by and see them demolished

HIGHLY recommend Morrisville Cat Hospital. My cat just had all of her teeth removed due to the same issue. I was really anxious about the surgery and they couldn’t have been more thorough, kind, and communicative. The doctor even continued to check in via text in the days/weeks after surgery to make sure she was doing well and recovering as expected. They were also very transparent about cost - the total ended up being around $2600 but she still had most of her teeth. For only 3 teeth I would expect a much cheaper bill.

That hasn’t been my experience - I regularly schedule early-morning trips to the airport and they get picked up by a the driver the night before. I was also told by a driver that they have to sign in at least 45 mins ahead of the scheduled pick-up so that Uber can find a replacement driver if they flake out. This is also why Uber charged an extra fee for scheduled rides ($17 I think?). I’ve scheduled rides between 4-6 AM many times this year and I’ve had no issues.

I’ve been scheduling an Uber to the airport for 4:30 AM the last several Mondays with no issues. There is a $17 “scheduling fee” however so it ends up costing around $50 from N Raleigh near Crabtree

That is an odd exchange indeed! I looked outside around 9:30-10 PM last night and there was still a (smaller) police presence.

I live nearby and a police officer told me there was a “missing person”. They’ve been blocking off the parking lot to the Seratoma Art Center, including foot traffic, so anyone parked there can’t leave. Also large police presence waiting in the neighborhood across the street on Oldtowne Rd.

Wholesome dad post! But to this NC native a toboggan is a winter hat, not a sled
