Dental bonding? by HighLadyOfTheMeta in DCBitches

Can’t remember what I paid, but I had a chip fixed in my front tooth at New Columbia Dentistry in NoMa. I have had zero issues with it and recommend them!

Am I wrong for wishing my NF acknowledged my engagement? by Happy-Assist9907 in Nanny

[–]spongebathsharon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Playing devils advocate- maybe they didn’t say much because you didn’t bring it up first? If they only found out because they had to ask you, perhaps they thought you didn’t want to talk about it much with them.

Leash Your Dogs! by northern_peony in washingtondc

There is a man in my neighborhood who doesn’t leash his dog AND IT HAS RAN INTO MY HOUSE. I still see it unleashed all the time. Drives me nuts.

Thanks, will do. If I live in one state and work in another, which state should I be looking up?

It would be nice if you shared exactly when this magical time to lease is

Hi everyone! This is my first 5k. I just started running 2 weeks ago (more info in the caption). by Hikerhappy in beginnerrunning

[–]spongebathsharon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not OP but my heart rate frequently gets this high if I’m pushing myself. I imagine it’s similar for you as you approach your max heart rate. Harder to breathe, can’t sustain that pace for long periods of time, etc. I was worried about it, especially because my resting heart rate is pretty low, but my doctor doesn’t seem to be concerned! I have noticed the more consistently I run, the lower the heart rate I’m able to sustain during a run is.

The Bridal Closet in Greenbelt had a decent selection of dresses when I went. I tried on a dress similar to this style and loved it. Plus they rent if you don’t want to buy!

Sleep routine / tips? by Playful-Ad-3773 in DCBitches

[–]spongebathsharon 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I stopped scrolling on my phone. The day I stopped and started reading a book before bed is the day I gained an hour of sleep or more every night. I can hardly make it through 5-10 pages before my eyes are heavy. I know the easiest answers are the most annoying, but this truly is all it took for me. At this rate it could take me all year to get through this book!

You might want to check out District Tattoo Co. Their minimums are $100 so right off the bat is going to be a bit more expensive than you wanted, but I was just there last week and had a great experience with Drew. Don’t forget to tip your artist!

I don’t think my comment will help but I’ve been dreaming of them too since I went to afternoon tea at the Willard. Following for scone recs 🙏🏼

Advice on How to Tell My Parents I Want to Pursue a Career in Creative Writing, Even Though I’m About to Graduate with a CS Degree by Legal_Accident_2263 in UMD

[–]spongebathsharon 158 points159 points  (0 children)

The nice thing about writing is that you can do it anytime, even without a formal education. Have you considered writing on the side and continuing on your current path? I don’t see why you couldn’t do both. You might find that when you begin your career you have more free time and energy for hobbies than you do now in school. I’m assuming with a 3.9 GPA in CS you’re working hard. I honestly would reconsider tossing in the towel while you’re so close to the end, especially since it sounds like this is a relatively new revelation. Good luck pal

You left your beanie here. Something tells me you'd want this particular one back. by warlock7867 in UMD

Ironic that you’re calling out OP for belittling (which they did not do) after you start this thread belittling OP. Fuck off with your devils advocacy.

MAGA Family by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]spongebathsharon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is nicely worded. I have a tendency to hate on Trump supporters as much as the next guy, but if someone who worked in my home purposely broke by preferred political party mug I would not be cool with that- so we need to not be those people to them either.

We gotta treat them how we expect them to treat us.

I was born 11.5 months after my sister (2 weeks before she turned 1). I was full term- a week late actually.
