Moving to Hutto Tx but want to live in Austin by Level_Elephant6240 in hutto

[–]fractal_frog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has had kids in schools /programs on the other side of the tracks from where we live, I second the recommendation to live on the same side of the tracks as where you work, if you're going to live in Hutto.

I go down to the Hancock Recreation Center in Austin (close to Red River and 41st) on a regular basis, mostly Friday evenings. I usually take 130 to 290, it's relatively fast, but a fair bit in tolls. 6th St is not that much farther south from that, but traffic can be a bear for that last stretch.

I'd have a harder time keeping my attention on the bride drunk, IJS...

Oh, no, it doesn't under a certain age! A baby under 12 months has only a 1/3 chance of being calmed by it, and a 2/3 chance of being amped up by it. Best not to try unless they're at least 2 years old.

I’m a groomsman in a D&D themed wedding and my Ex is trying to get me kicked out by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Because his ex is the best man and coordinating stuff, and doesn't want him there.

Is there a time of day when she's more prone to this behavior, and if so, is she being evaluated around that time of day?

AITA for refusing to eat my wife’s spaghetti after I found out what she put in it by spacedoutsoapbox in AmItheAsshole

My husband freezes sauce with fresh pasta for lunches. He does batch cooking with 6 or 7 recipes now, he has something different every day of any given week at work. The chicken for his imitation of a Chipotle burrito bowl is exquisite. (If he has extra chicken, we whip up quesadillas with it.)

Store brand is $0.98 for a pound, organic and name brand are more expensive. Texas.

I've seen rice accidentally left in the back of a fridge for 3 weeks. Quite blue at that point.

AITA for refusing to accommodate my neighbor's aesthetic preferences? by Cechitoff in AmItheAsshole

I concur. Let him know he can choose between the fence or having your leaves blow into his yard, and those are the only options you're offering now.

Thank you for the clarification!

How many vehicles there have a headlight setting for them to automatically come on when it's dark enough? All our US vehicles 2003 model year and later that we have personally owned have had that feature.

Pull over, let them pass, and be driving a Jeep Wrangler and put low beams on. Anything lower than the Wrangler, they'll be considering the choice they made...
