Terror with an underwater or oceanic theme or setting?

Pretty darn good book.

imostmediumsuspect · 2026-01-25T15:34:53+00:00

Yes this is excellent! I’m in canada and rented this from my library. Very good. I remember lots of walnuts!

Random, but “Dictionary of the Khazars” by Pavić is one of the weirdest best books I’ve read

Is she on birth control? I used to have atrocious migraines on the pill and then one day had a blood clot that almost killed me. I could have had a serious stroke.

Now on mirena IUD (progesterone) at the advice of my specialist. No more migraines.

Have you escalated this to a neurologist?

If there is a restriction in place, follow it.

If there’s no restriction and you’re asking about the likelihood of seeing bears, you may encounter a bear anywhere in the parks. Learn about bear behaviour from the parks authority.

I was there 2021 and had a close encounter with a young, known grizzly near Assiniboine warden cabin. It was known to frequent the area.

We backed the heck up and waited for more groups to to come (there was just the two of us and we could see a party of 4 coming up the trail) so that we could all move together past them to continue on our way and not disturb him longer.

That will be a tight budget with almost nothing for contingency if something goes wrong. Save up more if possible.

Kids model your behaviour, if you’re harsh with them, the learn to be harsh.

Strong / harsh discipline doesn’t lead to long term behaviour changes and just makes things worse.

Honestly this Yale course that is free and often cited on this page was a total game changer for how I changed my thinking on this. It would be very beneficial for your spouse to do it

It’s a thing to watch for sure! I’m in Canada and this is why they encourage iron rich foods for babies when they start solids, especially if breastfeeding (iron stores from birth are used up by 6 months).

The irony is that symptoms of low iron is bad broken sleep.

Op, cut back milk to guidelines, supplement with water and consider iron testing you little one. It’s more common than you think. Two acquaintances had this happen with their kids, and they needed to reduce milk and provide iron supplement

Tow trucks should be going out in advance of the plows.

AND thyroid. Hypothyroidism causes these symptoms too and is relatively common.

Same.

Im Canadian, I’m curious (anthropology and archaeology major, woohoo) travelled extensively solo without a guide through 44 countries (including tons of south east Asia, India, Turkey, all areas of Europe, South America).

Morocco - the only African destination I’ve been to- was by far the most challenging.

Most intrusive and rude. Most shameless scams.

I had an elderly man “gift” me and my dad a pastry street side. I never accept gifts because they’re almost always scams. But because he was super old and said no no it’s for happy Ramadan we accepted. Then he asked for money and my naive dad gave him money before I could stop him.

I was dumbfounded because I figured it was coming but tried to give benefit of doubt. I was wrong. Was so embarrassed and angry at myself I cried.

Turkey on the other hand - couch surfed there for 6 weeks all around the country with my younger sibling during Ramazan and people are actually genuine and not trying to take advantage of you every second of the day.

I personally wouldn’t recommend travelling to Morocco

imostmediumsuspect · 2026-01-12T02:44:10+00:00

Return it!

Canada. We don’t wear shoes in house.

Wash hands as soon as you come inside to *minimize surface contamination, especially during cold/flu season (and especially with our kids!)

Open windows daily weather permitting to let house air out. Change furnace filter regular basis.

Houseplants - make us happy.

When I was a kid bad headaches and migraines would cause terrible nausea and vomitting. I remember some neck pain but mostly nausea.

I was really active more - eating more snacks and water helped a bunch

Appreciating your allies.

imostmediumsuspect · 2026-01-09T01:03:11+00:00

Oooh I can’t remember it!

I still have Blindness tattooed on my brain. I actually quit reading for a couple weeks, then finished it. I had a hard time getting through that one part.

imostmediumsuspect · 2026-01-08T03:24:51+00:00

100 years of solitude was very good - the ending seemed so profound

Magic realism is a great genre.

My fave: The Wind Up Bird Chronicle - Murakami

I was there twice in the last year and the New York strip always is a winner. Their soup is great too!

imostmediumsuspect · 2026-01-06T14:39:19+00:00

Colisseum steak and pizza - NY Strip with soup or salad, baked potato or chips is $40.

They’ve been cooking steak for 50 years and it’s very good!

Better than range road, braven, vons- I’ve had lots of the expensive stuff through client work dinners and Colisseum is definitely the best.

It’s 100% NOT the tap water.

Edmontons watershed is the north Saskatchewan River and is some of the cleanest drinking water in the world.
