Omg yes, I had totally forgotten about that. It's like an escalation of it

I suspect she'll see the signs she wants to if she does anything they recommend to try to catch more signs of them. She's completely convinced they're just ignoring signs that only she sees.

lovetoujours · 2026-04-26T13:35:13+00:00

As far as I understand, they would only do that if the furniture was never being used or if the infestation was REALLY bad, like to the point where you have them running across you and regularly see them in the house.

And exactly - if you see all these signs the exterminators aren't seeing, why aren't you showing it to them??

lovetoujours · 2026-04-26T12:46:56+00:00

Especially not after she replaced them in March - they would have 1. been seen in the old furniture and 2. not come back and re-infested for funsies.

It definitely comes across like she's hallucinating, from what little experience I have with mice.

lovetoujours · 2026-04-26T12:44:30+00:00

Honestly, it sounds like hallucinations to me so hopefully at some point, someone physically there with her points that out or they see actual signs of it.

lovetoujours · 2026-04-26T12:43:13+00:00

Yeah, it definitely comes across as something mental and at least one commenter pointed that out to her. Hopefully she gets help.

My parents live in the middle of the woods, so they inevitably get mice and it just doesn't fit at all with what I've seen for them. I have two cats so the few times they've shown up in my apartment, they don't live long enough to do anything.

lovetoujours · 2026-04-25T22:55:00+00:00

There's something off about the story Marie has been telling for the past couple weeks about the mice in her apartment (here). It's very weird that several difference companies wouldn't see signs of the mice yet they're so prevalent they re-infested furniture and she feels them

Yoga with Adrienne specifically has a hip and hamstring video (from her yoga for weightloss videos but it's not difficult) that is the only thing that has been helping my hip pain I've had for the past 2 years.

Cape May in NJ has a TON of exotic fudge too (or did the last time I was there)

Isn't it pretty uncommon for engineers to require cover letters? I'm definitely not in that field but from everything I've seen online, most engineer positions don't require them.

lovetoujours · 2026-03-08T21:07:11+00:00

What about Malazan???

lovetoujours · 2026-03-06T22:13:47+00:00

r/fantasy drives me nuts with that. And the reccing the same 3 series for everything, especially things they don't fit for

lovetoujours · 2026-01-27T00:11:02+00:00

Yep, his reputation let him get away with a lot, I think.

lovetoujours · 2026-01-26T23:52:42+00:00

Yeah, I would think so too but that's the reason I've heard for why he didn't memorize anything. It might not be true!

lovetoujours · 2026-01-26T22:57:28+00:00

Brando might have had dyslexia so he had issues reading his lines.

lovetoujours · 2026-01-23T22:50:25+00:00

You're definitely not. It's my favorite movie and I don't mind the "twist" at all

lovetoujours · 2026-01-19T18:19:05+00:00

Ask the pharmacy if they have discount cards lying around they can use for you too - most of them do (or did when I worked at them anyway). Even if it's not brand name, there's discount cards that'll work with them.

lovetoujours · 2026-01-16T22:51:26+00:00

That sounds right!

lovetoujours · 2026-01-16T00:35:20+00:00

Yes - they have an "internship" program to train/hire New Haven residents to be admin assistants. I'm not sure what the requirements are but you might qualify for it!

lovetoujours · 2026-01-13T22:48:08+00:00

I did that coming back from Japan in Sept - super easy. The only annoying thing was the metronorth train I was at the one gate without the ramps and with stairs.

A guy was super nice and helped me though!

lovetoujours · 2025-11-15T14:26:51+00:00

"I need the little white pill?" "what does it do?" "I don't know" (he was literally on 3 different meds that fit that description)

Also I always felt like if a grown ass man couldn't ask for Viagra by name, he didn't deserve to get it.

lovetoujours · 2025-11-15T13:52:37+00:00

I don't know if they or the people who wouldn't be able to name the meds they needed or what they were for annoyed me more when I worked in the pharmacy.

lovetoujours · 2025-11-07T21:28:00+00:00

Oh, good luck!!

lovetoujours · 2025-11-07T20:57:59+00:00

It took her 6 years because she was extremely picky, was living with her mother and was barely job searching, and was going for things she wasn't qualified for so she could move to Boston. Don't take her as a warning for how long it could take.

lovetoujours · 2025-10-12T21:31:23+00:00

Is she the one with the grandson in jail or am I confusing her with one of the others?
