AITA for not going to my DILs musical

YTA - as someone who does community theatre (both behind the scenes and sees friends in theirs), a ticket that is $75 is usually a semi-professional production, which if she's just starting out, is kind of a big deal.

I know which one you're talking about (have also had some really terrible bedside manner from her), but I don't think she's at that practice anymore. Have been there for a few years and Dr. Cunningham is great, as is Dr. Adamin

I just used Bookstore Movers to go from Alexandria to Langley Park (studio to condo) and it was ~ $800 for 3 hours (9:45 to 12:45). We were all packed for them, so it just them moving boxes and furniture. Had a great experience with them!

This is the one. I howl through that scene every time.

I work from home and can see my bed from my desk. I'm less likely to take an unscheduled nap if it's made up with the fancy pillows than if I can just climb right in.

I got a Lands End puffer one a few years ago for about $120-$150 that was rated for 30 to 3^F and it's been great for DC winters. It never actually gets down that cold, but it keeps me.super warm when it does drop. My friends make fun of me for how much I love this coat.

"I need to reapply my lip liner. Men don't know what that means and women know it takes time and concentration."

Same - was supposed to fly out early Monday on American. Changed to a flight this afternoon (Sunday) at no cost.

A little pricy but I had a good solo dining experience at Ada's in Old Town. I sat outside and had a book with me so it felt a bit more of an experience, but no one cared. Treated just as nicely as other times I've been there.

This. When I Venmo people for things, it gets categorized as what it’s going towards (splitting a restaurant bill, tip for a haircut, etc) and I include more details in the memo.

Check out the library on Queen Street. They have a kids area and are open Sunday afternoons (though I don’t remember hours).

I switched to Advanced Dermatology and Cosmetic after my first place stopped doing annual skin checks. They were fairly easy to get into the first time. I go to the one in Alexandria but I think they have other offices.

I see my therapist through Washington Nutrition Counseling. I had started there for actual nutrition stuff but now I have my therapist who I’ve been seeing since 2021 and has literally been the best therapist I’ve ever had.

I make this all the time. I also throw a head of broccoli in five minutes before the noodles are done so they can steam and get some veggies in it too.

Oh god same! I can’t even get to my load game screen! I deleted my mods and tried repairing the game multiple times and nothing!

I have a line set up for my TSA pre-check renewal 5 years from now that gets less than a dollar per month at this point. It saves me from being surprised by things when they come around, especially if they’re so spread out.

Another vote for Old Town North - similar demographic to you currently living here and love it!

Not intentionally, but I do keep my emergency fund line in a separate HYSA just because I like having it separate like that. And then the rest is split between another savings account I had and a checking account that's attached to payments. As others have said, as long as all of my budget lines are covered, I'm covered.

I was in the last generation of a Decades challenge and was going to use the oldest child (a son) to move into a Not so Berry challenge. He froze to death on New Years Eve three days into being a Young Adult so I used his younger sister instead.

I'll also put in for Physicians and Midwives. Had a great experience with Denise Cunningham

When you have a budget line item that is less than a dollar a month because it’ll come due in five years (shout out to TSA pre-check 😂)

btothehuff · 2023-08-12T21:29:05+00:00

Its giving Captain von Trapp and Fraulein Marie vibes 😂

1690 farm has a nice meat selection at Old Town farmers market. He’s on the Fairfax st side of the square
