Also don’t buy $200 beds from Wayfair. They are terrible and then will convince you to do something extreme like return it and buy a $900 sealy with $200 5-inch down mattress topper. 

Tbh that might end up being one of my best purchases this year but will give an update when it gets here in a few days wooo

That was my thought. It better be worth it. The mattress was normally $1800 but Macy’s closeout sale came through strong sooo fingers crossed!

This is why I buy good car audio.

He does something similar, he will look for ones missing a mouthpiece or damaged and try and repair or locate a mouthpiece  if he thinks he can. He plays the French Horn and Mellophone  - but he even bought a couple of (whatever you call the tiny tuba for concerts) and resold them. 

He also buys old laptops for dollars and takes the parts that work and strips them and sells them - maybe he can buy his own car!  he is a keeper

Euphonium. That's my instrument, and interestingly, also the one selected by miniBuff 1 for band this year.

My youngest plays the French horn, but doesn't like to tell anyone because she thinks it sounds pretentious.

Buff- If you need one I will see if he still has one   he had an extra one that he wanted to keep (it was pretty beat up though)

that's what my youngest plays is the French Horn, he was a trumpet in middle school and realized there were 30+ trumpets in the HS band and only 3 FH's so he changed to the Horn so he wouldn't have to risk being an "alternate" sucks when you ride the bench in the band!

Hmmm. She uses one the school provides. Not sure she wants a beat up one tho.

I bought a good one in high school, that we keep at home. MiniBuff 1 has a rental that she uses at school, but she doesn't have to haul it back and forth. Thanks, though!

Yeah you wouldn’t want these - these look like those really bad hail damaged cars you see....



Man a French horn is some $$$. We couldn’t find one to rent so we had to buy one 3 years ago- was like a grand for a mid level piece of junk..But we plan to sell it hopefully at the end of HS -(or I plan to sell it)

You're sleeping your life away!

You're sleeping your life away!

I like sleep! 

 

[Mama said PE is the devil]

I like sleep! 

Apparently I don’t as I type this at 3 am. Nothing like sleeping for a few hours, and not being able to fall back asleep...

I need an excuse to get out of two NYE parties...because it is going to be raining tonight, I don't really know the people at the parties, and I'd rather sleep/binge watch a movie with Dominos.

HELP ME, EB.  YOU'RE MY ONLY HOPE!

"I have plans." 

They don't need to know it's Dominos. NYE parties can be awful. Parties where you don't know anyone are especially awful. 

And if they ask again, hand them one of these:

Uggggggh.  @tj_PE @csb Unfortunately, one of the people who invited me to her party knows I am an anti-social engineer who doesn't date.  Uggggggggggggh.  She will def call me out and make me feel guilty, since she was counting on me coming/earlier in the week I mistakenly said I'd be coming.  I think it's mostly me looking at the weather and realizing I have to drive an hour roundtrip in an area where there are probably multiple DUI stops and it'll be raining hard tonight...so I won't be able to really drink/relax since I'll have to be driving, I don't want to deal with a ridiculous Uber bill (since there isn't that many Uber around here and I'll prob have to take one of the creepy local taxi company cars), and it'll be raining and gross.

Have to be an adult and just bite the bullet and text her.  Tell her I'm dying from a parasite and won't come.

Lie like an adult.

 

[wilheldp_PE]

If you were invited to 2 parties, just tell each host that you are going to the other party then go to neither.

 

[kevo_55]

The adult thing is to say that you'll go to them but then just don't.

Just saying............

This is the best answer and deserves all the kudos!!!!!!  

@kevo_55 Unfortunately...I'm not that much of an adult and everyone is still in the "let's drink our lives away"-stage of life, so it's noticed if you never go out to parties...
