God I'm glad I do live somewhere where not locking something isn't a sure thing for inviting trouble. I have a garage filled with tools and there's been a few times I've forgot to close the door and just left for a whole day and come back to nothing missing. Forget to lock the car up often too. Oops.

I've been looking for a garage full of free tools---I mean a nice place to move.

Tbh home security cameras are pretty loving useless. There's someone for the past 2 years putting up posters for a 10k usd reward via the cops for someone who physically assaulted their elderly family member, with screencaps of the suspect via their home cams. Still unresolved. Cameras don't do poo poo. He should be locking the goddamn door though. Should I Break Up With My Fiancé? quote:My fiancé and I have been engaged for 9 months and as we approach marriage it is beginning to dawn on me that maybe we should not be together. I love her very very dearly but she wishes to finish med school and I truly want to raise a family. If she is to become a doctor it is evident that she will be extremely absent in not only my life but the life of our children. I can not bring myself to tell her its either me or her dream of becoming a doctor so I am considering ending things, though it will kill me. We have both communicated that having a family is our number one priority but I feel she is delusional about how much of a strain it is to be a mother and doctor. What should I do? I dont want her to resent me if she ends up choosing me and a family over her profession. I also dont think I can handle being married to a woman who isnt there for a large portion of our marriage and a large portion of our childs lives. ME ME ME Everything about ME. MY household MY wife MY kids.

AITA for using multiple alarms in the morning when it's hard for my wife to sleep?quote:I am an extremely heavy sleeper, I fall asleep pretty fast, and can sleep through almost anything, short of the house collapsing with me in it. My wife, on the other hand, is an extremely light sleeper, wakes easily, and often lies awake for hours at night. We have a 6 month old who's teething and going through sleep regression, and my schedule recently changed to me having to go into work earlier. My wife is currently a SAHM and is the one responsible for the baby's care and house as I work 12+ hours a day and I'm exhausted by the time I'm home. yeah well i work, i don't sit around playing all day like some people

Foo Diddley posted:AITA for using multiple alarms in the morning when it's hard for my wife to sleep? Dear lord I hit snooze way more than I should and even I think this is loving insane. One more in the column of "we really need to normalize that it's totally normal and healthy to sleep separately from your partner if it will improve your quality of sleep". (Also, the dude clearly has no respect for his partner, but I get annoyed when people burn down their relationship trying to do something that's clearly not working for them because "every other couple does it this way!") And speaking of alarms, thank you to whoever recommended those light-up alarm clocks in this thread forever ago, I got one and it's awesome. I still suck at getting up on time but at least it's not pitch dark in my room when I have to get up.

I can't very well excuse myself for snoozing and then rolling back over if I have to get up and walk across the room to turn the alarm off. I used to do that and it worked pretty well. Probably time to readopt that habit.

I remember this story (or a very similar one) having been posted and the part that makes me want to chew glass is the length of time he is loving around with snooze and extra alarms. That is from 3:30 AM until 5 AM, a full hour and a half. Every morning. I would absolutely acquit if i was a juror in the murder case, wife deserves to slaughter this guy.

I have a huge printed sign saying "RECORDING CAMERA SURVEILLANCE ON PREMISES" (took it from work) on my veranda window, plus a portrait of Stalin. I don't know if either are deterrents but I didn't know where else to put them.

Foo Diddley posted:AITA for using multiple alarms in the morning when it's hard for my wife to sleep? My ex gf and my current fiancée both do this.  It also seems to be inevitable that these multiple alarm sickos are partnered with light sleepers who are guaranteed to wake up in the first millisecond of an alarm going off.I've tried calmly explaining that your brain can't go back into any kind of restful sleep in the space of a snooze button reprieve, so if you are setting alarms from 3:30 to 5 you are for all practical purposes getting up at 3:30, but to no avail.
