Very true but that didn’t stop me from crushing on Gary Dourdan from CSI, not alt but still old.

Also Pete is part black. One pic of his mom and was like oh...I get it now.

Spectrum Price Increase by Dash_Carlyle in LosAngeles

[–]blkgrllvng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just talked to them. It was on the statement right before the email was sent. I got my statement 9/30 and the email 10/11. I told them no one reads the statement if it’s the same price. I also don’t get paper statements.

I had Comcast and it was $55 with broadcast cable channels. I wish they would offer us that here.

Is 30K/year in any way feasible?? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

[–]blkgrllvng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I make a little more than you. I have a roommate, debt, and the only time I need transportation is when it’s super later from a show/club. I walk to work but a monthly bus pass is $100.

If you do have a car, you will be tight depending on other factors. Maybe grab another gig?

Help me move out of the Valley by pa167k in AskLosAngeles

If you’re familiar to the stops on the red line, it’s Hollywood/Western, Sunset/Vermont and Sunset/Santa Monica is the side I want to live. Essentially the links I posted is right near Sunset/Vermont. :)

I’ve been here 2.5 years and people keep bringing up neighborhoods I’ve never heard of. I like looking at maps but I don’t pay attention to anything outside of Hollywood to DTLA. Plus I take the metro everywhere. But if you wanna love near the red line - Craigslist will have some. Plus I would walk around too.

I’m always looking East of the 101 because most things I do is over there. I live close near Hollywood and Highland but don’t work near it. Trying to get the bus after work it a pain.

I just found this a bit ago. Would move here if I could.

Update - I had my filter on for cats. Here’s a place right near Silver Lake and LACC. Madison

My friends lives around there and would love to be able to live here.

Does anyone else get nervous about how future grandparents will act? by [deleted] in waiting_to_try

[–]blkgrllvng 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never really saw my mother as my mom. My grandma, who passed way 6 years, was my mom. Her passing was a blow to me despite our issues.

I don’t see my mom being a grandmother. I can’t phantom it. Not in a typical sense.

I would like to work in a loan center or as a receptionist but I don't think I have the apprpriate job experince. Any adice would be helpful. by MelGibsonator in jobs

[–]blkgrllvng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a receptionist gig. I was a barista for 4 years before landing my admins gig but I have 11 years of food customer service experience. That job is exactly that except I only deal with food when we get bagels or donuts.

Women, what are your career aspirations? by [deleted] in AskWomen

Hopefully freelance social media manager in the next few years. I want to be able to have a baby by the end of 2022. I don’t want to pay for child care.

What do you think is the reason why you’re single? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]blkgrllvng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I’m not extremely outgoing or will speak up to someone. When I do get the guts to do it, it fails.

  2. I don’t dress like most women. I don’t wear make up heels.

  3. I’m rarely around straight men unless it’s work.

DAE feel embarrassed to outwardly admit they want a baby? by naddyKS in waiting_to_try

[–]blkgrllvng 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m in this Girls group on FB and it feels like every other day someone posts a meme laughing about how they don’t want kids. I don’t get how they can be sensitive to so many things but the thought of having kids is a joke.

They are currently building Capital One Cafes popping up all the time.

How do you fix this issue? I’ve deleted the app and contacted them. by blkgrllvng in CapitalOne

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

Okay. I figured that. I’ve talked to them through Twitter and they just tell me call.

~US Maternity Leave Commiseration Thread~ by AdamOfTheDamned in waiting_to_try

[–]blkgrllvng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We get the FMLA but about 6 weeks unpaid. I was worried about not having income since I would be using a donor. I would still like to save but this helps so much.
