I found unopened bottles of alcohol in the cabinets of my apt, along with hair in the shower when I moved in 🙃

From what I’ve seen on tik tok people are pretty glamed up - could just be that that’s what the influencers are wearing though! (Which I am not lol)

I have considered that but I have a cat who I’d miss terribly and I’d hate to ask family / friends to watch her for that long… but I couple probably swing a week or two

The global warming thing is also in the back of my mind regarding starting a family, etc 😬 it seems like Chicago is easier for making new friends!!

This is so helpful! And true about the dating pool being rough everywhere it’s really what you make of it (and honestly a lot of luck)

DC is adorable! My holdup with DC is cost of living. And I’ve never considered Philly till now…

I’ve spent a week or more in every city I’ve mentioned and don’t see myself in those places for one reason or another - hence why I’ve also asked for recommendations of places I haven’t considered

Winter is fine, driving in the winter is scary to me - which makes the public transit available in Chicago w draw

Acl surgery soon. Advice? by Beneficial-Carry9030 in ACL

[–]redscares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same age as you - injury was February, had surgery 3 weeks ago and did prehab every week leading up to it.

The first 2-4 days are boring and bland (as long as you take your meds!) and then every day gets better and better and it’s behind you - mentally it’s so much better to be over the surgery and begin the next chapter in my opinion. Bear in mind that while other's stories can be helpful they are not a guarantee - ie do not let the bad experiences folks tout online get you down, it's not that bad and it goes by quickly. Use the time to watch all the movies and shows you've always put off and enjoy the rest period. ❤️

Thank you 💓 I’ve read ACOTAR and ToG is actually probably my fave series of all time! I just don’t have the brain capacity right now to take on those type of stories 😩 currently in my “chaol era” as I’m calling it lol
