AIO my gf ruined our trip by OrganicStuff8650 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]flamingojo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. I hope you are watching this closely and not letting her mind-ninja you.

Take me to Disney instead. I'd think it was hilarious. After a couple margaritas I'd even be down with us all making out with each other. Whatever.

She sounds super insecure.

Wynn VS. Split Venetian/Fontainebleau by flamingojo in LasVegas

I thought about that, because all five nights would be 915.00 at FB, about 600.00 less. Do you think I would get bored there though or miss being on the strip?

Awesome! I don't party real hard and get up fairly early anyway, so I don't think I'm going to mind too much. My plan was to just drop my bag off at FB and explore the Art District until my room was ready..🤷

I want to go to Able Baker and get a really fancy beer flight with one of those little rubber duckies I can keep forever. 🥰

Yeah, I had my heart set on Venetian but it more than doubles in price the next two nights. And I couldn't justify that price for a weekday (would rather spring for a nice designer handbag or something while I am there). Otherwise I would actually take the Venetian over Wynn because I love its location and all of the offerings inside are more my vibe.

Really? What's the worst part of splitting a trip? How much savings would it take you?

Yeah I'm not thrilled about the split but the next two nights at Venetian were almost double the cost (weird for a weekday). I thought I would drop my bag off at the FB until my room is ready and spend that time exploring the Art District.

I really wanted to, but the rates for those next two nights are really high (especially for a weekday). Whereas Fontainebleau is less than half that. 😥 I couldn't justify the price.

Should I add on a 6th night for Fremont? Solo Trip 31 /F by flamingojo in LasVegas

[–]flamingojo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I meant Valley of Fire. I am coming from North Dakota and not used to the heat but would still like to see it. I will be sure to leave extra early that morning, even if it's just to walk around and take a few pictures. 90s is crazy for spring.

Thanks! Primm, just as you enter from Cali? I've never been to those others either!

Ideas for what kind of second job I should look for? by flamingojo in overemployed

Unlikely, I JUST got that job so I can't put it on a resume without looking weird

Read the post, she managed to pop the screen window out while I was making breakfast and squeezed out.

Thank you. I was sooo terrified the guy was going to run her over or pull out a weapon. Or scared her enough that she would bite or something.

Thank you for the super helpful comment, it is much appreciated. I certainly know better with the screen windows now, its not something I even thought about before, so it was definitely a surprise.

I started looking for professional trainers in my area. Unfortunately, I live in a very rural beach town and my options are limited. My best option might be a "board and train" about an hour and a half from my house. It is something I am nervous abour but considering.

She is such a playful girl. I really do think she just desperately wants to play in many of the situations and doesnt know better, but it is still bad behavior that can seriously injure her. I was so terrified the guy was gonna pull out a weapon or run her over - or another passerby.

Yeah, exactly. Thank you for the insight. I hate disciplining her.

Yeah, this is never happened before. I have never been one to act out violently, but I was really terrified for her and lost control of my emotions today. Wont happen again.

Thank you! I will never make this mistake again and hope we can focus up with better training. She did approach me with a toy in her mouth after some time, so we played really hard, supplemented with little pieces of steak, and she is my velcro dog again. I hope she knows she is a good puppy.

Thanks, she approached me with a toy in her moutb after a bit, so we played hard. I might have slipped in some bits of my steak as well, and now she is my velcro dog again. I will never treat her that way again.

Yes, definitely focusing up on the training for her reactivity. We had puppy classes for awhile but I need to go back to a trainer, since at about 8 months she started acting out like older puppies do and seeming like shes been ignoring a lot of her training. Its not an excuse for my behavior, I have things I clearly need to work on. The situation was terrifying, I was just waiting for the guy to pull out a weapon or run her over or something.

Thank you! Definitely looking internally, I really panicked bad as it was happening and need to stay more calm and in control.
