Delivering pizzas for Dominos. First time delivering alone. South Harrell’s Ferry-nice neighborhood. Was fretting about making change on the spot-lol. I’m not always an idiot, but often do stupid shite when I’m nervous.

Guy gives me plenty of money to cover the pizza—with maybe 7-12 bucks left over. He went to close the door, and I asked him “NO TIP??” With a huge smile. He gave me a weird look and closed the door. I meant to say “No change??” but didn’t realize until I was back in the car.

This still makes me cringe at least every few weeks.

Anyone heard and news on this? Was driving to pick up my kid from school around 3. I was driving on Highland (near intersection of Highland & Airline) toward I10 when I got passed by a police SUV. It zipped between some vehicles near the Racetrack and stopped just past that. Traffic was stopped at the railroad track for a minute. We had to merge single file past the Cop cars and the work truck that was pulled over. They had their weapons (Looked like guns, but maybe tasers look the same??) drawn on what looked like 4 young guys, all laying face-down on Highland road right in front of Hello Sushi. There were also cops waiting at I-10. Sorry, I’m nosey, gotta know what those guys did.

Crap, in that case, I’m screwed. Well, since I’ll have to quit my job, I guess I’ll open my own little in-home elementary school. Anybody interested?

I’ve been taking mine to the BMX park on Perkins to ride bikes. Had a nice picnic in the grass there too. I think the playground is still closed, though.

I went to LSU with her. We had honors courses together. I remember that she was actually a very nice and smart girl.

He “didn’t know” the needle was in his sock.

And somehow the Talk 107.3 app mysteriously stopped allowing people to post comments. Apparently their IT department is “working on it,” yet it has been down since immediately after the firings. So mysterious, since it was working fine that morning.

That is a good point-probably don’t want people knowing which safety codes are being violated and stuff.

I did think about the proprietary information thing, but then I thought that pretty much every company has stuff they want to keep under locks, but many don’t have the “no phones” rule.

Thanks for the info, y’all.

My dream home is a tiny apartment in busy NYC, so probably 500-550 sq. ft.

Why do rich people put those? We drove down Highland earlier and saw several houses with just brick columns lining the property along the road, but no fencing between the posts. What is the purpose?

Just curious.

Good point. Flood insurance quotes will be necessary before making a decision.

Another question: is adding on to a house in this situation impossible? Worried that we wouldn't be able to close in the garage/add garage doors without putting a ton of dirt to raise the elevation. (Also thinking about adding on a sun room/closed in back porch.) Would it be acceptable to do it at the current elevation, since the house already exists and it's not a new construction? This house is OLD and they certainly required the neighbors to add a ton of dirt before building their new home, but maybe that's because it's a completely new construction.

If anyone knows the regulations, or knows where I can find this information, that would be so helpful!

Thanks, y'all are the best.
