It happens about once a year. Sometimes twice. Sometimes none. We skipped first winter this year and after on to winter 2 of 3.

The self cleaning feature on ovens is pretty dangerous and not recommended by appliance techs. Just FYI!

Hopefully you have car insurance? If you do, call and get Roadside Assistance added on. It’s very inexpensive and just like AAA. Could be as low as three or four dollars a month.
They won’t let you use it right away. They may make you wait 24 hours or so. It depends on the company.
Also, someone posted on the sub that they know a mechanic in Southington that will come and help you tomorrow for free.

Reply to comment by thinkingwhynot in Is there a bad stomach bug going around central Connecticut? by [deleted]
Horrible! I felt like puking the entire time not took EVERY prescription, over the counter, and natural remedy we had on the house. I ended up being severely nauseous and 💩 dozens of times,but kept the actual puking at bay. Bad stomach pains. Even now a few days out, I get stomach pains whenever I eat anything at all, even bone broth.

The weather you're looking for is north and west right now, maybe if you love the snow so much, why don't you follow it?

Tbh I was expecting something cooler.
Why so much effort for this set of bits? Surely there are sets available at any box stores or package delivery?

Yes. The Halal (Banglashi??) place next door used to do all you can eat lunch buffet for like $16, those were the days.

Pretty much how I feel when I go there. I think to myself "If I worked here, I'd be the best cutter in the shop" but then the thought of listening to those fucking animatronic songs for eight hours straight makes me want to kill myself.

Wonderful place when I'm feeling flush or by myself.
Not at all the kind of pricing I'm asking for here, rarely can we three get out for under $80 all up.
I really miss the lunch buffet, all you could eat for $12

Royal Guard, but portion size for indian food tends to be small in general.

You need to change your attitude too. Good advice but, damn, your nasty attitude is oozing through my screen.

Reply to Guilford vs Madison by Coffee_Cardio
Madison has great beaches (surf club and Hammonasset)… and that’s about it. Most of the residents and NYC weekenders have big time superiority complexes who are judgmental and obsessed with social status. The amount of 16 year olds bombing around town behind the wheel of their daddy’s Mercedes or BMW is mind blowing. The sub par downtown area is saturated with boutique shops run by bored, waspy housewives. The police force has had their share of scandals, including (but not limited to) lobster poaching, cocaine and hooker parties, and pimping teenaged prostitutes for backseat squad car romps. One officer had taken issue with me dating an ex of his whom he had repeatedly physically abused. He would literally stalk both she and I, and use “thin blue line” intimidation tactics. It was made clear to me that, after reporting his erratic and inappropriate behavior multiple times, his supervisor was complicit and flippant about the situation.
The high school educational experience is objectively good, and sports teams usually perform well. But if you care to look at what has been swept under the rug, you’ll find rampant opioid issues and teen suicides. Don’t ignore the fact that, for literal decades, the DHHS football program has heavily promoted steroid usage among players. Diversity is nil, as Madison is whiter than a mayonnaise and wonder bread sandwich, and it seems that most residents prefer it that way.
Guilford and Madison share many similarities, though Guilford is dialed way, way back. People are more relaxed and friendly, and are seemingly less concerned with what street you live on, or what car you drive. There’s a bit more diversity, the downtown green is top notch, and the schools are good. The biggest police scandal has been whether or not they should relocate the “open to the public” department’s basketball courts elsewhere.
I have lived in six different towns in CT, and while Madison was probably the wealthiest and was seemingly the “best town” on paper, my personal experiences there were pretty terrible. Look at the time, my free therapy hour is up haha
