"Copper is really effective metal at shielding against EMF radiation, which is why you see it in many hospitals or IT applications"
https://www.amazon.com/Brite-Bronze-Copper-Insect-Screen/dp/B00N19V97K/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1446167910&sr=8-6&keywords=copper+screen Mylar is also quite a popular material to use. Others advice:
"Try inexpensive countermeasures first before spending a lot of money on on elaborate versions -- try $2 copper mesh before spending $30 for a shielded baseball cap, try $10 rubber mats before spending $150 for a blanket-sized sheet of rub" Others advice:
"Buy gel packs and tape them together to create a blanket. Water has proven to be effective at blocking out signals"
"Create a thick blanket using tin foil - cheaper and temporary option, until more effective measures are found"
"Buy a large piece of steel and sleep under it. Even using pots/pans have been known to work"
Others advice:
Other countermeasures are steel cookie sheets, heavypieces of steel such as barbell plates, multiple layers of foil, multiple layers of mylar blankets, wet towels, wet blankets, lead xray aprons, filled plastic water bottles, hand lotion and other lotions, jels and creams applied to the skin, metal necklaces, metal wrist and ankle bracelets, metal belts, metal impregnated clothing, metal impregnated bed sheets, RF shielding fabric conditioner, electrically grounded ground planes, electrically grounding our bodies, ceramic tile, unrolled copper mesh scourers wrapped around the head, RF shielded baseball cap from http://www.lessemf.com, neodymium or other strong or large magnets, box fan leaned against the bed to provide vibration, moving around during the day (working around the house, gardening, hiking -- makes targeting more difficult), playing one or more radios tuned to different news talk stations or tuned to different types of music stations such as classical and jazz, foam earplugs.
Shielding countermeasures that work well for me to counteract synthetic vibrational sensations are rubber mats, electrically grounded ground plane, electrically grounding myself, RF shielding fabric conditioner, ceramic tile, RF shielded baseball cap, the anti-tinnitus CD/headphone, and listening to talk radio. I have an aluminum screen (metal kind used for window screen and screened doors) in bed.
under my fitted sheet connected to earth ground (third prong of an electrical outlet, or cold water metal plumbing supply line pipe under the sink, or a metal rod driven ~2' into the ground outside). Thus I'm sleeping on a ground plane that tends to "ground-out" some of the RF directed at me. Helping further is an electrically grounded wire touching my skin while in bed, also helping to "ground-out" the RF. (Next thing for me to try is an RF fabric sheet on top, or a sheet washed in RF shielding fabric conditioner.) Under my aluminum screen in bed is a layer of 16"x16" (more commonly available in the 12"x12" size) ceramic flooring tile from Home Depot. Yes, for whatever reason, any size ceramic tile works surprisingly well for many TIs according to someone on the conference calls who got the idea after researching what the military uses to RF shield their secure.bunkers. If you've never tried it, do so! For me it probably works better than most if not all of the countermeasures listed here. In addition to sleeping on a layer of them if you want you can lean one tile against your abdomen and another against your head.
Also while sleeping I listen to a CD developed by a TI named David Case of Case Electronics which is supposed to eliminate the tinnitus some TIs experience; for me it helps me relax and may eliminate some of the electronic brain linking/neural monitoring from the perps. The CD is free (last time I checked) but you have to buy high-frequency headphones that go up to at least 25kHz, such as KOSS TSC75 and KOSS PRO35/A from Radio Shack ($25-$40).
Listening to the CD on conventional speakers didn't help. Since using this CD I no longer need to sleep with head shielding. A fabric conditioner called AegisGuard LL, available from http://www.aegisguard.com, added to the final rinse cycle of the laundry while in the washing machine, results in your clothes being RF shielded. I use it all the time and feel much more comfortable during the day as a result. It costs about $4 per laundry load. Based on my experience it is highly recommended if you can afford it! As everyone's targeting is different no one countermeasure works for everyone so experiment to see which set of countermeasures work best for you. Try one thing at a time. Even if something doesn't have much effect at first try it for a week as the beneficial effects may not be apparent initially. If things get extremely bad then discontinue but be aware it takes a while to adjust and sometimes sticking it out for a few days proves beneficial in the long run.
Try inexpensive countermeasures first before spending a lot of money on on elaborate versions -- try $2 copper mesh before spending $30 for a shielded baseball cap, try $10 rubber mats before spending $150 for a blanket-sized sheet of rubber.
Once countermeasures are found that work, switching-off between two or more of them may increase their overall effectiveness. For example wear a shielded baseball cap during the day and listen to a jamming CD at night. Try moving shielding components around to a different spot each night. Reserve an especially effective countermeasure for use only in rare instances of unusually heavy attacks. If you've never or only briefly experimented with shielding I would highly recommend doing so. You may feel only a little better at night but then during the day may feel more positive and may be able to get more accomplished. Before employing shielding countermeasures my life had a very nightmarish, hopeless feel to it. Now my outlook is much more positive and I have more energy during the day!"
Your friendly neighbourhood Targeted Individual.
Someone asked on Reddit, when did you start to notice that you were being stalked?
My answer:
Stalking started around 2018 at the train station but I'm sure they were being peeking toms way before this. I've never known someone to be so obsessive over someone else, where they literally dedicated they're lives to you.
Things that I noticed over time:
E.g. Bullying or unwanted comments
E.g. Walking down the street and thinking to myself, 'i'll need to clean the car today'. Suddenly someone behind me would state the same thing to their friend. E.g. I was concerned someone would see my different coloured socks. So I would cover them, making it impossible to see them but suddenly two random strangers would make a off hand comment regarding my sock colours.
(This is often called the stalking stage, the purpose is to study your reactions and to make you hypersensitive at the same time. So you will start to notice more things around you, which can lead to an increase of paranoia. They will also wish to know what things can cause an negative reaction and will use this more in the future).
  • The neighbours could suddenly hear everything I did in my house.
E.g. My house is completely separate with thick walls and no matter where I seemed to be, I'd eventually hear a comment from the neighbour regarding my previous conversations with family or anything I did during that day.
  • I could hear the neighbour's conversation in my house for some reason, which had never happened before. Projected audio, most likely.
E.g. If I had on the tv, they would say it's too loud despite being on the same loudness for over many years. It was V2K so projected audio in my case.
  • All the themes and comments from random strangers, start to make you feel like your being stalked by someone.
E.g In my case, they lied about making a fake social media website in the beginning as through previous study, they knew I was scared of being online at the time due to OCD. No matter where I went, I'd hear someone state, 'ohh they are from that website!'. It felt like I was being actually followed, which is true. This method is called Anchoring
(This is known as anchoring and is designed to gain your overall attention and to confuse you so you'll look crazy in front of your family and friends. This stage they are preparing you).
The behaviour overall increased and lead to DEW weapons, etc. This was done after the stalking and anchoring stage.
Little tips per case:
  • If your gang-stalker uses the following triggers: Key phrases, sound or frequency. The chances are they use these methods in combination with each other, this pattern of behaviour heavily replies on sensualization. E.g. You think of an thought but suddenly feel stressed for some reason.
"Ahh I feel like cleaning today" You feel an certain change caused by frequency. "Actually it suddenly feels like an lot of effort"
Basically your 'trained' to do this, through the earlier stages of stalking. This is where they study you as an person and expose you to different types of activities such as street threate, certain key phrases, frequencies and etc. This is all to predicted certain reactions from you, which is also handy for anchoring you. (Anchoring is used for misdirection in the gang-stalking community, they will do and say things to confuse or stress you).
  • Anchoring is often used in the earlier stages as well; They will often tell stories or lies about everything or anything. Ultimately this services two purposes: To make you pay attention to certain actions or wording, so you become hypersensitive to everything around you or to encourage you to act out. E.g. You never heard of the term targeted individual before and have no idea what's happening to you, so you tell your family or friends. Unfortunately you appear crazy to them instead.
  • They will often use sound/V2K or they're own voice to confuse you in public. This does not matter if your alone or with relatives. The aim is to give the illusion that someone next to you or people in general are all stalking you.
E.g. Your in a restaurant with your family but can hear people saying certain key phrases or just trying to say anything to gain your attention. But you have no idea, who it could be. (That's the aim, to cause confusion).
  • They will use sound/V2K to misdirect you during conversations. This services many purposes from confusing to making you paranoid.
E.g. You ordered something at McDonalds but suddenly hear a smart/insult comment as you go forward. However you swear you didn't see her lips move? Well chances are they used sound/V2K to cause this.
  • Your deep in thought or starting to fall asleep but suddenly hear words/V2K without hearing anything? Chances are they are using low frequencies or another system for sleep deprivation.

Basically your 'trained' to do this, through the earlier stages of stalking. This is where they study you as an person and expose you to different types of activities such as street threate, certain key phrases, frequencies and etc. This is all to predicted certain reactions from you, which is also handy for anchoring you. (Anchoring is used for misdirection in the gang-stalking community, they will do and say things to confuse or stress you).
  • Anchoring is often used in the earlier stages as well; They will often tell stories or lies about everything or anything. Ultimately this services two purposes: To make you pay attention to certain actions or wording, so you become hypersensitive to everything around you or to encourage you to act out. E.g. You never heard of the term targeted individual before and have no idea what's happening to you, so you tell your family or friends. Unfortunately you appear crazy to them instead.
  • They will often use sound/V2K or they're own voice to confuse you in public. This does not matter if your alone or with relatives. The aim is to give the illusion that someone next to you or people in general are all stalking you.
E.g. Your in a restaurant with your family but can hear people saying certain key phrases or just trying to say anything to gain your attention. But you have no idea, who it could be. (That's the aim, to cause confusion).
  • They will use sound/V2K to misdirect you during conversations. This services many purposes from confusing to making you paranoid.
E.g. You ordered something at McDonalds but suddenly hear a smart/insult comment as you go forward. However you swear you didn't see her lips move? Well chances are they used sound/V2K to cause this.
  • Your deep in thought or starting to fall asleep but suddenly hear words/V2K without hearing anything? Chances are they are using low frequencies or another system for sleep deprivation.

---
It had been a terribly boring day until someone decided to blow the door to the jewelry store that Maggie Pye had been casing clear off its hinges. A trio of middle-aged thugs stomped in through the now open doorway, brandishing some advanced looking weaponry that clearly shouldn’t have belonged to them. One had a long sci-fi looking, would-be shotgun, another wore a glove with a bright glow that was quickly fading and the third wore a belt with some fancy-looking metallic orbs.
Two security guards scrambled for the door, unholstering their weapons, but the man with the glove thrust his arm out towards them, fist clenched. Their weapons jerked out of the guards’ hands and flew through the air, sticking to the glove as if it was a magnet. He unclenched his fist and the weapons clattered to the ground.
The gloved man thrust his hand out and batted his arm towards the guards, flicking his wrist. The two men blasted across the jewelry store, slamming into the back counter and flipping over it on either side of the cashier, dropping out of sight with a pair of thuds.
Maggie licked her lips.
“Hit the deck or get wrecked,” one of them belted.
The other two chuckled. Maggie just rolled her eyes. There was a hodgepodge of screams and gasps and then, as if in the midst of a choreographed routine, everyone flopped onto the floor.
Maggie found herself on the floor as well, playing a part. She was always playing a part. Today’s role? Frantic civilian. “Oh God,” she screamed dramatically, loud enough that they’d have to be hard of hearing to miss it. “The police, someone-,” she dug into her pocket and pulled out her phone.
“Have you lost your damn mind, girl?” The one with the gun lunged over and kicked the phone out of her hand and pressed the gun’s barrel against her nose.
She yearned to know what the weapon was capable of. She didn’t take these men for the cold, hard types that’d kill a woman at the drop of a hat, so she had to channel her excitement into a veneer of terror so as to maintain her role.
“Oh God, I’m sorry I, I wasn’t thinking.” On cue, tears welled up in her eyes.
“Clearly.” The gunman tapped the barrel to her head. “One more move and I’ll liquify you. He pointed the gun at a light mounted on the wall and fired. The light lost all form and dripped onto the floor leaving a puddle.
The goon with the orbs stomped over to it and kicked the puddle into Maggie’s face. She genuinely flinched, expecting it to be steaming hot but it was cool to the touch. She breathed a sigh of relief. Scars would make it more difficult for her to blend in and she didn’t want to have to continuously conceal burns on her face.
At once they all perked up as if just noticing the blaring alarms. “We’ve had our fun,” said the gloved guy, “playtime’s over. Now it’s showtime.” The other two men nodded and the one with the orbs pulled one off his belt. He pressed a button on it and softly dropped it in front of him. It ‘landed’ around waist height and just floated there. The orb expanded and unraveled, ditching its metallic form for that of a glowing pale-blue translucent sphere.
The one with the glove raised his arm above him and spread his fingers out. He strained, grunted and then all the jewelry leapt from their places, shattering glass in their wake on the way to the man’s gloved hand, which was glowing again. Maggie’s cell hitched a ride along with all the jewelry. She reached out toward it, but pulled back suddenly when the gunman turned back to her. She shrank back onto the floor, cowering, staving off the twitching hints of a smile.
In the end, once all the loot had made its way to the gloved man and stuck to his gear, it looked almost as if the man had shoved his hand into one very expensive beehive.
He whipped his hand towards the blue sphere and the entire haul obediently flew into it, rippling the surface of the orb on the way through and then disappearing completely from sight. The one with the orbs flipped a switch on his belt and the orb shrank and returned to its smaller metallic form. He reached out and caught the orb as it began to drop and snapped it back onto his belt.
“Job’s done in record time,” one said. The three men backed out and Maggie heard the screeching of a vehicle, and they were gone.
Maggie got up, dusted off her skirt and looked around. Sirens blared in the distance. Not 10 seconds after the men had retreated, she waltzed out the store’s now open doorway and made her way down to the street towards the parking garage she’d left her car in, her bag swaying at her side. She guessed that the men were focused on the jewelry and didn’t want to waste their time collecting and digging through everyone’s bags so other than her missing phone, she and the rest of the shoppers were mostly left alone. Of course the rest were liable to bawl their eyes out once the shock wore off, but not Maggie.
She made her way up to the third level in the parking garage and found her sports car. She may have been a university student but she’d always had her ways to make ends meet and then some. She plopped herself in the driver’s seat, flicking the peacock shaped air-freshener she had hanging on her mirror. She doubted peacocks smelled all that great but she happened to like this particular scent, which for ever reason smelled a lot more like a pine tree than any bird she’d ever been around.
She slid a second smartphone out of her bag and turned it on. Though her plans did not always involve losing her personal phone on purpose, she always kept a spare nearby just in case.
A digitized magpie call sounded from the phone as it booted up. As she pulled up the ‘Find My Phone’ app but the only phone that came up was the one that she held.
She thought back to her ‘confiscated’ phone and all the rest of the thugs’ loot disappearing into the orb. So it’s not traceable while inside the orb, then? That made some sort of sense. It was a gamble, assuming that the trio of robbers would allow themselves to be tracked via a cellphone, but she trusted her gut and always enjoyed a little improv.
But they had to dump their loot eventually, right? So Maggie waited. An hour, then two, then it got dark and she stopped really paying attention to the time. She was comfortable playing the role of a night owl anyway and she’d paid for all-day parking. Might as well milk that parking pass for all it’s worth. She’d heard that leaving her car idling for so long like this was bad for it but cars were replaceable. Her time was not and she didn’t intend to waste that on boredom.
It felt kind of like a stakeout really, or at least that’s how she kept from getting too bored with the tedium. She jammed out to the Cure, the Mountain Goats and the Maniaks, tuned into a news station every so often, and stared at her phone. Eventually she broke open a book of riddles, brain teasers, puzzles, all that jazz.
Finally she resorted to sketching. She did her best to sketch the three men from memory, to capture the chaos of the jewelry store, and to sketch what she imagined she herself must have looked like playing her part in that moment. Silly, pitiful, convincing. She drew their loot. She drew their gear which interested her most. It had to be worth more than all the loot combined.
She spent the most time on her sketch of the glove. That was the true prize of the lot. She assumed the gloved man was the de facto leader of the group because there’s no way someone would give out the best toy to a subordinate.
It was past ten when her phone finally blipped into existence in the app. She keyed the address into her phone, kicked her car into drive and made her way to the parking garage’s exit and toward her route. Eventually it led her to a decrepit looking warehouse in the harbor district. She parked close, but not too close to the building itself so as to not be conspicuous. “The game is afoot,” she muttered to herself.

(The Next Afternoon)
“It’s good to be back.” Conner stepped out of an Uber and sucked in a breath of the Metropolis’s remarkably fresh, at least when compared to the other cities he’d been in, city air. He linked his hands behind him and bent pop, popping his spine.
Before he could finish his, Linda exited the cab and practically bowled right into him, sending him stumbling to the side. He cocked an eyebrow, but she only rolled her eyes. “Feels like we only just left Metropolis. It hasn’t even been two months. I wish we could just stay home. Or just in one place.”
“Lately it’s been hard to get you out of your ‘one place’. It practically feels like I’m staying in your room, not ours.”
Linda didn’t look Conner in the eyes. “I have my reasons, you know that. I’m working on it.”
Conner pursed his lips. “Uh, right. My bad, my bad.”
Martha stepped out of the Uber. “You two aren’t bickering again are you.”
“I’m not sure I’d call it that,” Linda said, then she turned and stared at their ride’s trunk expectantly.
“Linda, come on,” Conner muttered. “You know I didn’t mean anything by it.”
Jonathan finished tipping their driver, then jogged over behind Conner and Linda, slapping a hand down on each of their shoulders. “Come on you two, we only just got here and you’re both moping. Martha and I are the adults here. It’s our job to do the worrying for you two, though if you ask me worrying never did anyone a lick of good. Just enjoy this time we all have together, alright?”
“I don’t know how you can say stuff like that with a straight face, Mr. Kent,” Linda said.
“Like what, exactly,” Jonathan asked.
“That cheesy stuff. The same kinda stuff Clark likes to say,” Linda said.
“I guess we know where Clark gets it, huh,” Conner quipped.
Linda smirked. “Conner, you really don’t have a leg to stand on here. You’re cut from the same cloth, you dork.”
Jonathan just laughed, slapping his knee. Martha smiled.
“At least I’m not the dark lord of the grumps.”
“And that,” Linda said, tapping Conner on the forehead, “is exactly the kind of nonsense I’m talking about.”
Conner gave a toothy grin. “Snarky you beats mopey you any day.”
“Oh, can it.”
---
Linda and Conner hung out in Jonathan and Martha’s room until the two adults got settled, then crossed the hall to their own two-bed, room 500. As soon as they were settled in Conner left to poke around the hotel while Linda flopped belly down onto her bed, flipped on the TV and directed her attention to her phone.
A little while later, the door clicked open and Conner walked back into the room. “This place is pretty nice. The fitness area even has kettlebells and a rowing machine.”
“How’s the pool,” Linda asked.
“Bigger than you’d expect. It’s even got one of those looping slides. But more importantly it’s indoors leaving you without any excuse not to swim,” Conner said with a flourish.
Linda just shook her head. “Maybe I just don’t feel like swimming,” she said.
“Inconceivable. Unacceptable. Lame.” He glanced at the TV. “What’re you watching?”
Linda flipped to the TV guide. “Looks like it’s called Whiplash. I wasn’t really paying attention”
“I’m going out for a while. Want to come with?”
“You already know the answer to that.” Conner sighed. “That’d be a no then. You want anything while I’m out?”
“Maybe something sweet from Sundollar,” Linda said.
“Coffee Chip it is then. Back later.”
Conner slipped out into the hallway and knocked on the Kents’ door. Martha promptly answered.
“You guys don’t mind if I get out and stretch my legs for a bit, do you?”
“No, just so long as you stay safe out there.”
“Well then, Linda wants some coffee. Do you guys want anything?”
“Oh, nothing for us, dear,” Martha said. “Couldn’t drag Linda out of the room, huh?”
Conner shook his head. “I’m afraid not. The ball game is already going to be a stretch.” By now they were all used to Linda excluding herself from outings like this whenever possible. They didn’t have to be content with her isolating herself though.
“I would say that the two of you haven’t reached coffee-age yet, but with your Kryptonian biology it’s practically just brown, funny tasting water, huh? Let me get you some cash.” Martha disappeared for a moment and then returned with a good deal more cash than Conner needed.
“I don’t need this much just for coffee, Mrs. Kent.”
“It’d sure be a shame if it didn’t make it all back into my purse,” Martha said with a wink. “Have a little fun. I trust that you’ll keep your hands clean.”
Conner grinned. “It’d sure be a shame if any remaining change magically made its way back into your bag, too. I’ll try not to go too crazy with it.”
“You’ve got your outfit on underneath that, right?”
He wore a blue and black plaid shirt under his leather jacket and a pair of washed-out grey jeans. His shoes were blue basketball shoes, accented with red and black. He wore a grey pack on his back. He could just feel his costume hiding away underneath.
“Yeah, just in case. If you had to ask, I guess it must not be showing then, huh? Good.”
“Let’s just hope that you don’t need it today. There’s no reason you should have to get all wound up on our vacation.”
Conner took the stairs down to the ground floor and GPS’d the nearest Sundollar on his phone. There were three within a half-mile of him. He chose one a little further away, about a fifteen minute walk according to his app. He didn’t want this little jaunt into the city to be too too short. He threw on a pair of bluetooth headphones, turned on some music and made his way towards his Sundollar of choice.
“Hey kid, how about you grab one of these hero shirts?” Conner peeked over at a portly street vendor selling T-shirts on a stand. He had a small crowd on his hands, but that hadn’t stopped the man from taking notice of Conner. “They’re all the rage,” he continued. Conner was still about five minutes from his destination at this point, but curiosity got the best of him so he glanced over the stand
This being Metropolis, over half the shirts were in some way related to Superman. There were shirts with graphics of Superman flying, Superman standing majestically, and even Superman swinging a car around. Conner wasn’t sure that one had ever even happened. They even had a depiction of his public debut landing the plane. From there there was a litany of shirts depicting logos with slightly or vastly altered color schemes, even including purple and pink versions. Conner saw a few Supergirl shirts too, and shirts representing the members of the Justice League but he didn’t see any one shirt that quite matched his outfit. Conner wondered how Clark and the others felt about people using their images to turn a profit.
“Got any Superboy?”
“Sorry kid, the ladies buy plenty of Supergirl shirts but I did a test run of Superboy shirts and boys just seemed to prefer Superman shirts.” Conner winced. Even though he was weirdly happy for Linda, he couldn’t help but feel a bit slighted. Maybe Linda had benefited from Kara paving the way first with her brand. The man pursed his lips. “I didn’t think it’d upset you that much. I’ll tell you what,” the man rifled through some of the shirts, muttering to himself all the while. “Looks like the fit type, maybe a men’s large or XL… Kid, you play linebacker?”
“Uh, I don’t play football, nah.”
“Real shame, as big as you are.” The man scratched his chin as he eyed Conner. “Maybe try combat sports when you get a bit older. Mixed martial arts are all the rage.”
“Thanks, but, uh, I think that’d just cause problems for me.”
“Eh, I guess it isn’t for everyone. Just don’t be wasting your youth.” The vendor finally pulled out a black shirt with a red Superman logo and presented it to Conner. “This is one of the ‘cool’ designs that the kids seem to like. How about it? I’ll even give you, uh, ten percent off!”
Conner smirked. “Gee thanks, tax-free. How much for that one and one of those Supergirl shirts?” The man quoted a price and Conner paid in exact change. “Thanks.” Conner shoved the shirts in his pack, saluted the man, and then turned to leave.
“Best of luck kid. Stay safe out there, things can get crazier than you’d expect around here.”
“I’ll keep my head on a swivel.”
Conner made his way to the Sundollar and got in line. After a few minutes he reached the front of the line and ordered his and Linda’s drinks. He sat down on one of the soft leather chairs in the Sun Dollar lobby while he waited for his order to come out. Conner pulled up Facebook on his phone and casually scrolled down his feed in an effort to make it less obvious that he’d taken this down time as an opportunity to people-watch.
If he was being honest, the people in Smallville tended to only come in so many varieties, at least on the surface. That was to be expected when living out in the country. But Metropolis was a melting pot. People of all types lived in Metropolis. A cute desi university student stood behind an athletic man in his 40’s who had to be upwards of 6’6” and was built like a bodybuilder. A tall blonde military woman exited the Sundollar as a lean man in a suit entered Perhaps a stock broker?
Conner flicked his gaze back to his phone every time anyone seemed to glance over at him. Conner wished that Linda could be more comfortable venturing out the way she used to be. She wasn’t above people-watching herself. But for the time being he knew that that shared activity was mostly tabled. But he’d hold out hope that she’d feel comfortable enough to relax in a Sundollar with him, surrounded by strangers.
A sound poked at the edges of Conner’s attention, like a high-pitched computer fan first kicking into gear and then building. It was easy to ignore for a moment but it grated on his nerves as a dog whistle might bother a dog. He could not tune it out. Conner looked out the window following the sound and noticed that it was coming from a jewelry store across the street. Everything looked normal inside but his gut was telling him something was up.
There were still several drink orders ahead of him. Conner slipped out the door and started unbuttoning his shirt as he turned the corner into an alley-way. “This looks like a job for-” A Sundollar employee around Conner’s age leaned against the wall next to the alley’s dumpster and vaped. She stared at him as he unbuttoned his shirt, and seemed to be caught half-way between interested and weirded out.
Conner hurriedly buttoned the top few buttons back up and let out an awkward cough. “Uh, sure is hot out here,” he glanced at her nametag, “uh, Margot? He said her name with a questioning tone and immediately cringed inwardly.
She rolled her eyes, pushed out of her cool, leaning position and walked past him. “I have a boyfriend.”
“And I have an undershirt! Don’t get the-” she was already gone. “Uh, wrong idea…” Well that earned him some privacy at least. There was no one left in the alley so Conner leapt up onto an adjacent rooftop, landing smoothly with his feet only just on the edge of the rooftop. He was face to face with a middle-aged woman drinking out of a flask. Surprised he flailed his arms and lost his balance, falling to the side. His fall was cut short by a fire escape. The woman didn’t pay him any mind, seeming completely unphased that he’d completed a four story jump right in front of her. Do these types of things happen to Clark? Surely not, right? It had to be Conner’s luck or perhaps just his carelessness.
He jumped across the alley to the rooftop of the Sundollar, quickly stripped into his costume, put his jacket back on, slipped on his shades, shoved his stripped clothing into his pack and slid the pack to the corner of the rooftop.
As if on queue, Conner heard a loud pop and then the shrill crash of shattered glass from the jewelry store. People came pouring out of the store in a panic dispersing in every which way, even across the street between traffic-stalled cars. He spotted one girl running with blood staining a long white glove she was wearing. Conner hovered off the rooftop and glided over to check on the girl.
---
No plan was perfect, Maggie Pye thought. Even so, she felt that her plan for today had turned out particularly imperfect. It was a far cry from her improvised plan the night before. Of the three men that had robbed the jewelry shop with their fancy gear, only one had still been at the warehouse when she picked the lock and snuck her way in. On top of that, the robbery must have been awfully exhausting to him since she’d found him napping on a fold-out chair. In the time that she’d allotted herself to poke around the warehouse, she hadn’t been able to find the jewelry, but she had made a game out of slipping the telekinetic glove off the man’s arm without him noticing.
In the movies when the hero is trying to get a key or something off of a sleeping bad guy, it seems to take forever and the bad guy always seems to find himself on the verge of waking up, but this man had been particularly boring as he slept like a baby during the entire 12 second theft of the glove. It was comparatively boring but she wasn’t about to complain about that.
It was all she had gotten but it was what she wanted most anyway. She had spent the night messing with it, levitating an apple, pushing, pulling, lifting, lowering. She did the same for a five-pound weight. She’d manipulated multiple objects at once, though the more objects she had to focus on, the harder it became to manipulate them in more specific ways. She could move around a single coin floating in the air as a puppeteer might, two or three coins and things got a bit tougher to manage. Their movements would become jerky and if she lost focus, one or more of them might fall altogether. Any more than that and she was limited basically to simply single direction manipulation. She could push and pull a group of things, such as all the valuables in a jewelry store. But anything more specific than that and she might fail to move anything at all. Figuring out her limitations ended up becoming sort of a mind bending puzzle to her. The glove itself also almost seemed to open up a sixth sense. If you focus on an object you can almost sense it, connect to it, feel it without feeling it. But when you take the glove off, that feeling simply disappears as if it had never been.
She’d practiced and decided on the perfect trial run. Nothing too complicated. She was going to use it to make off with a single necklace before anyone could make heads or tails of the situation. She planned to enter a jewelry store in disguise, not one of her usual haunts, and yank a necklace right through its glass display case and into her bag so quickly that she would be gone before anyone had time to get a handle on the situation.
She browsed in the store for a several minutes, even asking the clerk if she could see a couple pieces of the jewelry, inquiring about prices and so on, all the while waiting for business in the store to pick up.
Maggie had been thorough with her disguise. She wore brown-eye color contacts, a red wig and had applied make-up to make it look as though she had freckles on her face. She’d padded out her waist and curvature to make her look, well, a good bit curvier than her naturally lithe build. In her purse she had a fake ID to sell this identity if needed. She wore a long blue skirt, a nice blue blouse, and pale-blue gloves that reached her forearms, the kind one might wear to go ballroom dancing, in order to hide the telekinetic glove underneath on her right hand. The glove had a gaudy sort of sci-fi look to it but was surprisingly form fitting enough to barely be noticeable when covered up and the colors she’d chosen to wear would make the glove’s glow much less obvious. She’d activated the glove some time ago, flicking it on with a thought, and just let it idle. During her practice run it had taken a bit to build up energy before the glove was usable.
The place filled up until nearly a dozen customers were wandering around, shopping, some by themselves, some as couples. And so Maggie waited until all the clerks were occupied and stood opposite the store from the necklace she had decided to target, making sure that there wouldn’t be anyone between her and the necklace. She didn’t want to make a mess of things on her first dry run with the glove. With her back turned to the target, she focused on the necklace until she could really feel it, then tried to link it to her purse in her mind and gave it a gentle tug.
Bad things come in threes they say. Maggie Pye believed it. Today those three things would come in the form of monkey wrenches, shoved directly into her plan. The first misfortune began with a loud popping sound, almost like a gun. Maggie whipped around to find the necklace bursting through the glass and hurtling towards her, not her purse, as if fired out of a cannon. She reached out towards it but before she could will it to push away from her it scraped across her the telekinetic glove and ricocheted into her bicep, cutting into it and dangling loosely from it.
She crumpled to the floor after taking the shot. She felt a sudden burning, stinging sensation, and blood dribbled down her arm onto her gloves. She gave an involuntary, sharp gasp and then finally her impulse triggered the glove. A shockwave blasted from the glove in all directions shoving people away from her, even knocking a few down, and shattering every glass jewelry display in the store and sending the shards sliding across the showroom floor.
The other shoppers froze for a moment and then worked themselves into a frenzy. Pushing and shoving they made their way for the exit. Curled up on the floor, Maggie did her best to think the situation through. As it often did, Maggie’s predicament called for some improv. Had anybody connected her to the shockwave? No one stopped to help her or even shot a hurried glance in her direction.
She snuck a peak at the camera closest to her, just above and behind her. It was one of those black dome cameras that you might see in a department store and it had been smashed directly into the ceiling. She found that she was glad no one had been too close to her. Some random person getting seriously injured would have complicated things for her. Especially in Metropolis, you might garner the wrong kind of attention injuring an innocent bystander.
She had chosen this spot to obscure the angle between the camera and her target, while also recording Maggie looking completely disinterested in any of the goings-on behind her. That plan was now seriously working against her. Could they still review the footage? The other, mostly undamaged cameras could have had their lens on her by chance. If anything it would look like the necklace just shot at her out of nowhere, but how obvious would the shockwave be? She imagined it’d be blatantly obvious. Speaking of the shockwave, what the heck was even going on? Was there something wrong with the glove? Had she just not practiced with it enough?
Maggie decided it would be best to just leave things up to her gut instinct. Still curled on the floor, Maggie quickly slid the necklace out of her arm and breathed a sigh of relief. It hadn’t cut as deep as she had thought. Blood trickled from the cut, and she would need to bandage her arm when given the chance, but it could wait. She slipped the bloodied necklace into her bag, stumbled to her feet, and merged in with the other few that had been knocked to the ground as they reached the doors. Even the clerks were trying to shove their way out of the store.
Just like that, she scurried out of the jewelry store and strode out into the crosswalk. She’d escaped the store but she needed to quickly find another crowd to blend into. She glanced down at the thin stream of blood running down her arm. She needed to do something about that too. She could hardly blend in at a coffee shop with blood-stained gloves. Freedom was in sight, but freedom flew off when her second misfortune, some Superman wannabe kid, came flying in wearing a suitably dorky, colorful costume and a leather jacket that she swore had to be older than she was. She resisted the urge to cock an eyebrow at him, choosing instead to fall into character. She could still make this work. She reached her left hand across her body to cover the wound. Maybe he would leave her alone if he didn’t see the cut.
“Miss, your arm is bleeding are you alright?”
“I’m fine, Superman, you should be sure to check on the others though.” The boy’s some hero or something but he was still green behind the ears. An attractive young woman, even one in a ridiculous disguise herself, could go far by simply appealing to a young boy’s ego, unexpectedly.
He balked a moment. “I’m not… I’m… Surely you don’t actually think... Well whatever. We’ll circle back to that in a minute.”
“I think there was someone left in the store,” Maggie lied. “There’s not, I already checked.” He rotated in the air, glancing at the other shoppers. Maggie stopped for a moment, turned back and saw the store’s staff standing outside. One was on the phone, perhaps with her boss or with the police. Blast it.
“Don’t you worry about me sir. I’m perfectly fine.” Maggie hurried for the end of the crosswalk.”
“Wait,” the boy shouted.
“Would you just leave me alone,” she snapped back over her shoulder. Before she’d realized it she’d broken character. Was it just an off day? There was a honk and the screeching of tired. She whipped her head to the right. A red sports car was swerving right at her. “Oh blast-”
The car disappeared from in front of her and she found herself in the boy’s arms, twenty feet in the air. She tried not to panic. Would he notice the glove? Was her wig still on? The boy seemed accustomed to this type of thing. Had she seen something on the Daily Planet’s website about him some time ago? She couldn’t remember. Think, think, think. Could Superman or boy or whoever… “Can you read my mind,” she blurted out.
“What?”
“Forget it. Put me down.”
“We’re going to do something about your arm.”
Maggie rolled her eyes. Something about the kid just pissed her off and she couldn’t find it in herself to piece her broken character back together. “Can you not read lips either? Put me the hell down.”
It was the boy’s turn to roll his eyes.
---
This girl was all over the place. Perhaps she’s just in shock, he thought to himself. Do people in shock roller coasteresque mood whiplash? Considering his super heroic extracurriculars, maybe he should look into how to deal with people in shock.
“You’re going to be alright, I won’t drop you.”
“Please do.”
Conner just shook his head as he touched down on the rooftop next to his bag and released the girl. “Just let me patch you up real quick. I’m only trying to help.”
“I didn’t ask for your help.”
Conner pointed at the girl exasperatedly. “You’d have gotten run over by a car if I hadn’t helped.” He pulled a shirt out of his bag and walked towards her.
The girl glowered at him “Only because I had to stop and deal with you to begin with.” She pointed accusingly. There was a humming noise from the girl’s hand. Conner felt a dizziness come upon him.
“No, no, no no,” the girl muttered, staring at her hand. One of her gloves seemed to glow just a bit. The humming escalated and Conner’s dizziness made way for a splitting headache. Before he could gather himself, he stumbled and nearly fell into the girl before catching himself.
Conner saw a sparkle in her eyes, not the cute kind, but the kind a championship boxer might have as they prepare their knockout blow after breaking their opponent’s guard. “Huh,” she said amusedly. Then she pointed up and some invisible force socked Conner in the gut and launched him a couple dozen feet into the air. He caught himself at the top of his ascent, letting his flight take over but something snatched him out of the air and forced him back down, smashing him against the rooftop in front of the girl.
“You could have just left me alone.” The girl pointed down and suddenly like how Conner imagined it would feel to be at the bottom of a pile in a football game, scrounging around in an attempt to recover a fumble. “You still could. All I took was one measly necklace. Let the Magpie fly away and Superboy lives to play the hero another day.”
Conner gritted his teeth. “I’ve had about enough.” Without prying his arm off the rooftop, Conner mustered all his strength and lifted only his hand, slamming it open palmed on the rooftop. The roof shook and the girl stumbled forward. The humming wound down a bit and so did Conner’s headache. The pressure on Conner’s back was gone. He lunged forward off the ground and caught the girl’s gloved, glowing hand and gripped it tight.
“You know, you’re really exhausting,” Conner said, smirking. He tapped into his tactile telekinesis. “See if you like it when you’re on the receiving end.” Conner nodded down at the ground and winked. His telekinesis floored her and she wound up curled on the ground, her right arm pinned underneath her.
He sighed as he picked the shirt back up. “I’m just going to bandage your arm and then we’re going to go on a little trip to the police station.
“Can’t… breathe,” she gasped.
Conner loosened his hold on her just a bit and knelt down next to her. He worked on getting her turned over so that he could work on her right arm. As he did, she thrust her right arm right in his face.
“Idiot,” she muttered, sporting a smirk of her own.
The glove hummed and the headache returned. She blasted him off of her but Conner was ready for it. It hadn’t carried him more than six feet before he tumbled backwards in the air, spread his arms and legs out wide and caught himself.
He reached out towards her matching her push with his own. The glove hummed louder, Conner focused harder, pushing through his headache. He was really working up a sweat. Some jewelry thief weirdo was pushing him a lot harder than was acceptable. He had to wrap this up before things got ugly for either of them. He punched the air between them hoping to amp up his own push, catch her off guard and knock her off her feet. She did the same, open palmed. There were popping and crackling sounds coming from the girl now. She glimpsed at her glove And Conner saw his opening. He flew forward, closing the gap in a blink and reached from above for her arm. He pushed, she didn’t let up.
Conner reached his right arm forward, fingertips extended as he’d seen Clark fly. Their fingertips met.
---
Magpie’s glove sparked and released another shockwave, this time focused directly at Superboy. It launched him into the air. She thought that she’d won but either her own push had recoiled back into her or Superboy’s push had finally gotten through to her. doing so lowered her guard and the boy’s own power pitched her off the rooftop and sent her plummeting towards a busy street. She flailed her arms reflexively and screamed bloody murder.
Before she could come face to face with her own inevitable death though, gravity seemed to reverse. At first, hanging upside down in mid-air, she came to a complete stop, giving her just enough time to catch her breath. Her wig slipped off and splayed over the windshield of a car that whizzed by just below. Then it was back to screaming her lungs out. She went tumbling end over end back into the air. She passed the rooftop she’d just been on and continued her involuntary ascent. She heard a deeper scream, and caught glimpses as she spun through the air of Superboy plummeting in her direction.
They slammed into each other in mid-air, leaving Maggie dazed, though she thought that they were probably falling. Superboy seemed to gather his senses first and just like that they were suspended in the air. They hung in the air for a moment in silence. She was awkwardly pinned against him somehow or so she thought.
“Put… me… the hell… down...”
He pressed his hand against his temple and massaged it. Maggie took a moment to catch her breath.
“Aren’t you supposed to have super hearing?”
“I’m not sure that I can.”
Maggie groaned. “You aren’t sure whether you can hear me?”
“No, I mean I’m not sure I can put you down this time,” he nodded down at her arm, “because I’m not carrying you to begin with.”
Maggie followed his gaze and saw that he really wasn’t holding her up at all. Her hand, palm open, was pressed against his chest, stuck to him like metal against a magnet, and she dangled loosely at his side. With an effort he pried her hand off of him and raised her up into a more comfortable position next to him but the moment he released her hand it snapped to his back and stuck. She tried to pry her hand off but the further she managed to pull her hand from him, the more forcefully it snapped back onto him.
He began a steady descent back to the rooftop. She gripped his shoulder for leverage and pried her right arm off of him as best she could and suddenly it stopped pulling towards him. Her arm swung all the way back away from him and she lurched sideways into him, sticking on contact just as the glove had. Whatever force was sticking them together didn’t seem to be limited to the glove. “I think I preferred it before.” Maggie just sat still, mouth agape, pondering how much of a joke her life had suddenly become in a single day thanks to this super idiot. They were nearly back on the rooftop when her power glove pulsed and made a pinging noise. “What the…”
The T-shirt that Superboy had been trying to bandage her with sprung off the rooftop and stuck to her arm. The glove pinged again and the boy’s bag followed suit, leaping at him, slamming into his back and then just hanging there. She couldn’t even bring herself to chuckle at it.
Was she only at three misfortunes now? At this point she felt like she must have passed that total a while ago. “You could have just left me alone, you know,” she whined.
“No way,” he said, his voice a little deeper than before. He puffed his chest out as best as he could with her stuck to his side. “Because a true hero always helps those that need it.”.

Detailed budget recap: Destination bachelorette in Austin, TX

We do a lot of wedding recaps but I thought I’d do one for the bachelorette I recently attended! For reference the bride was a coworker of mine in college and at our first career jobs out of college. We’re pretty close but I’m not in the bridal party (which I should add is in no way a sore point for me). I was super touched to be included on the trip.
In my circle, destination bachelorettes definitely are not the norm—most people seem to do a local day or maybe rent a house within driving distance for a weekend. This was my first time flying somewhere for a bachelorette. I offered to help the MOH and one bridesmaid with planning because I fucking love researching restaurants and things, so the three of us did most of the planning. The full itinerary was a surprise for the bride, but I kept accidentally revealing stuff early while we were on the trip which turned into an ongoing joke lol. Whoops!
About the group 9 attended, I think 11 invited? Age range 29–33ish, mix of singles/engaged/married/with kids Mostly professional types, everyone pretty financially stable Most of us didn’t really know each other prior to the trip (I’m close with the MOH and had hung out with two of the other girls once or twice in college, but that’s it) Two of the girls have celiac (including MOH) and one is allergic to dairy so we were careful to choose restaurants with GF/DF options, and two don't drink
Itinerary Friday: Arrivals throughout the day, grocery shopping and pick up pre-order barbecue for dinner. Hang and drink at the house. We ended up watching Bridesmaids which was fun—I hadn’t seen it since it came out and it definitely held up! Saturday: Sleep in a bit and cook breakfast, then explore South Congress. Come home, get dressed to go out (bride in white, girls in black). Nice dinner at La Condesa (more on that later), then bar hopping on Sixth Street. Sunday: Brunch out at Odd Duck, chill at home a bit, then boat ride on Lake Austin. Tried to watch the bats at the Congress Ave bridge but it got too dark and we couldn’t really see them. Dinner at Torchy's Tacos followed by some games and light drinking at the house. Monday: Clean the house/pack, then stop for breakfast tacos at Veracruz All Natural on the way to the airport.
Per-Person Costs Some of this is split costs, some is just stuff I bought for myself. We decided to have a few people pay for stuff all weekend and just sent all our totals to the MOH who’s tallying it up and sending an email to tell everyone what they need to send to who via the Cash App. I like this process because I’m getting a lot of credit card points (woo!) and also I hate trying to split bills at restaurants etc. We paid for the bride’s AirBnB, swag, and boat ride portions but she's included on the splits for everything else.
My flight: $267 + 12,500 miles RT flights were running around $550 when I was looking so I opted to use miles for the flight out and cash for the return. I took a redeye leaving Thursday at midnight, landing at 8:30 a.m. (poor choice lol). One other girl ended up on the same flight as me on the way there but most of the others arrived at 6 p.m. on Friday. Most of us returned Monday at 2:30 but a couple opted to stay longer to see family/friends in the area.
AirBnB (3 nights): $265, but we're getting a refund to make it $185 each Total was $2120 and we split it between 8 to cover the bride’s portion. We rented a 3b1ba house (2 queens, 2 twins plus a pullout couch) with a 1b1ba studio in the back (1 queen with a pullout couch). It was ok but we ended up having some significant issues (AC in the studio was broken and couldn’t be fixed during our stay, so it was wayyy too hot to sleep/shower there). They brought us a couple air mattresses but one didn’t work, so obviously more people ended up sharing beds, and someone slept on a non-pullout couch. The host is refunding us 1/3 of our money so we’ll each get $80 back which will be a nice bonus.
Swag: $20 The bridesmaids wanted to do matching shirts and tumblers which eh whatever. Not my style but I’ll play along. We got tees with quotes from Bridesmaids to wear while running around South Congress on Saturday and tall tumblers with straws and a lid that had everyone’s name on them, both from Etsy shops. Turns out the bride had the same idea and bought stemless wine cups from the exact same Etsy shop to surprise us with. We ended up using the wine cups for booze and the tumblers for water all weekend. They were definitely nice to have on the boat. We also got the bride a sash, tiara, and veil to wear while we were out Saturday night. One of the bridesmaids brought some décor for the house (balloons, banner, etc) but it was just leftovers from other bachelorettes she’d attended so that was free.
Car rental: $48 (just me) Because I arrived so much earlier than everyone else and we couldn’t check into the AirBnB until 3, I rented a car for the day. This turned out to be really helpful because the other girl and I were able to do a bunch of grocery shopping and so on to stock the house for the weekend. We also did a little exploring of the city but to be honest we were kinda zombies after the flight so we didn’t take in too much.
Groceries: $28 ($18.50 for the girls who didn’t drink) The MOH, a bridesmaid, and I planned out some meals/drinks at home to save a little money and wrote up a grocery list. The other girl who arrived early and I went to HEB for groceries and a random liquor store for booze. The list: -Avocado toast fixings for Saturday morning (including toppings like bacon, soft-boiled eggs, peppers, etc.) -Snacky style lunch for a Sunday boat ride (DIY meat and cheese platter, quinoa salad, hummus and veggies/crackers, watermelon) -Liquor (1 bottle each vodka, gin, and tequila) and mixers for at home (tonic, ginger beer, a million limes, and margarita fixings, more on that later) plus 3 bottles champagne and OJ for mimosas for Saturday and 2 bottles of rosé. We had 1 bottle each of the champagne and rose left by the end, so not bad! -Other random snacks/drinks like yogurt, bananas, LaCroix (living up to my username lol) -Sunscreen which turned out to be unnecessary because the AirBnB had a ton
Rideshares: ~$20 each (still waiting to hear the final tally from the other girls who ordered rides but this is my best guess based on what I put on my card) We opted not to rent cars for the rest of the weekend, so we took advantage of a Lyft promo that offered $5 off 10 rides. With 9 of us we had to get one regular and one XL to fit everyone but it worked really well.
BBQ from La Barbecue: $20 I pre-ordered 3lbs brisket and 2lbs pulled pork, plus their housemade pickles, a quart of potato salad, and a quart of their spicy slaw for 8 of us (one got in super late so she didn't eat). I had to pick it up at 4 p.m. because I had to return the rental car by 5, but most of the girls weren’t arriving til 6 which kinda sucked. So we refrigerated everything then warmed it up in the oven before dinner. I think it would have been tastier fresh but it was still really good, and it was nice to have a dinner at home for the first night when everyone was tired from the trip. We had lots of leftovers which people snacked on throughout the weekend.
Dinner out at La Condesa: $52 ($25ish for the girls who didn’t drink) This dinner was INCREDIBLE. It’s a sharing-type place so we ordered chips and guac and a selection of salsas to start, then elotes, two types of ceviche, and two of their main entrees plus their house-made tortillas to turn the main dishes into tacos (as was recommended by the server). We also ordered two (three? I have no idea) carafes of their margaritas. One of the girls also ordered a separate cocktail because she can’t drink tequila. We finished off the dinner with a tequila tasting flight for the bride, which was fun! When it came time to pay we put the drinks on my card and the food on another, which made it easier to split fairly for the two girls who weren’t drinking (plus the other girl is into credit card points too and neither of us wanted to miss out on the 3x point bonus lol).
Drinking out: $55 This is mostly from our big night out but also includes a pre-dinner drink I ordered at La Condesa and a fancy cocktail at the South Congress Hotel bar, where we stopped while we were wandering on Saturday afternoon. For our barhopping, we started on Maggie Mae’s rooftop deck. It was early (7:30ish?) so there was a mellow vibe. After a couple drinks we decided to move on to look for something with a more party atmosphere, and while we were walking a promoter at one of the bars on Sixth Street stopped us to offer free drinks for all of us if we came to their bar. I was skeptical but we figured we might as well take advantage of free booze. Inside a live band was playing covers of 90s alternative songs which we LOVED. We ordered 10 vodka tonics which I think was more than they were expecting but they delivered lol. I also bought a seltzer so I could tip the bartender with my card. He thought that was awesome so he said if we went to the upstairs bar his coworker up there would make us free shots as well. Um ok why not? The “shots” turned out to be super sweet mixed things but I just poured my seltzer into it and drank it anyway—I never turn down free alcohol. The upstairs turned out pretty cool with lots of games (beer pong, jenga, giant checkers) so we ended up hanging for a long time, and I don’t think we paid for any drinks at all there. After a couple hours we moved on to a different rooftop bar which turned out to have a wedding afterparty going on, which was fun. We switched off buying the bride drinks and she ended up pretty trashed lol. Since we started so early we were home by 12:30 which was perfect. The two girls who don’t drink seemed to have a great time as well, which I was a little worried about at first. Nobody got sick, nobody got lost—all in all a success!
Brunch out at Odd Duck: $30ish (still waiting on final numbers from the girl who paid this one) I have no idea how to describe to you how awesome the food was here. The bride and MOH had been here for MOH’s bachelorette and the bride was so excited to find out we were going again. We ordered a ton of plates to share plus their mimosa tasting flight, which came with 3 juice options (grapefruit, orange, and cucumber). It was an absolutely transformative experience and everyone was obsessed. They require large groups to spend $25 per person but that wasn't hard to hit.
Boat ride with Keep Austin Wet: $98 (includes a hefty tip) We rented the Ron Burgundy for 4 hours to cruise along Lake Austin and it was a BLAST. The pontoon was a great size for 9 of us plus the captain. They have a cooler on the boat so we brought all the lunch stuff I mentioned before, along with lots of water, ice, and booze. I like to set up a DIY margarita bar for special occasions with seasonal mix-ins so I bought a bunch of stuff as a gift for the group ($35). I had stuff for watermelon, blackberry mint, mango, and jalapeño margaritas, along with just plain obviously, and I acted as bartender most of the time. We also brought the G&T/mule ingredients and some Sprite for those who wanted other drinks, but most people drank the margs. The girls who don’t drink had ginger beer and I think some of the mango juice? Plus water obviously. I tipped our captain (Chase) really heavily because a) he was awesome, and b) he found a cigarette burn on the boat that was likely from the previous group (definitely not us) and he told us that since he didn’t see it happen they couldn’t charge them and he would have to pay for the repair himself. :(
Sunday night games: $6 We played Guess the Panty so we all bought underwear to gift to the bride. The bride has to go through all the underwear and guess who gave her each pair. If she guesses wrong, she has to wear that pair for the rest of the game. I did super plain seamless nude underwear because I knew she’d think I got her something extra ridiculous. I did the Target 5 for $25 deal and kept 4 pairs, so hers were $5. We also did bra pong which was super fun—the MOH bought a bunch of bras in various sizes at a thrift store for like $10 and we taped them up on some cardboard, and then you had to throw a ping pong ball in the cups. The bras are all brand new so we donated them to a shelter for domestic violence survivors in Austin before we left.
Other food: $45ish This includes ice cream from Amy’s while wandering South Congress Saturday, a late night pizza slice while we were out and about, Torchy’s Tacos on Sunday night after watching the bats, two trips to Veracruz All Natural for breakfast tacos (Friday on arrival and Monday before catching the flight home), and a couple coffees.
TOTAL: $898 (including the $80 refund from the AirBnB)
Overall experience I came into this really nervous about being with so many people I didn't know. I’m kind of on the introvert side and don’t love organized games, group outfits, etc. so I was iffy. The bride told me she was really nervous as well since she was asking all of us to spend a lot of money on a trip with people we really don’t know—she said it was a lot of pressure and she was very stressed about us having a good time before we got there. But I love the bride and also have always wanted to visit Austin so I figured I’d give it a shot. But damn if that wasn’t the most fun weekend I’ve had in a really long time. The group really meshed super well and there wasn’t one person I wouldn’t want to hang out with one-on-one. We all had about the same energy level, budget, and go-with-the-flow attitude which made it really easy to make decisions on the fly. Everyone’s food taste seemed to be along the same lines as well, which made group ordering a breeze. The length of time was just about perfect—there was lots we didn't see but it felt like we went out on a high instead of starting to get tired/cranky. Our group text from the trip has kept up since we’ve been back and I’m so pumped to seeing them all at the wedding!

Does anyone need a Foam Mattress Topper?

Edit: Taken!

I bought a Twin XL foam mattress topper from Target before school started but I forgot to put it under my mattress protector when I was setting my bed up. So far I've been sleeping pretty soundly and haven't needed to use it so I'm giving it away for free. It's unopened and unused so if you're sleeping uncomfortably and able to get to College Nine, it's yours.

TYPE SPRING
Durability 2 – Most innerspring mattresses last between six and seven years, and Saatva mattresses seem to be on par with this lifespan. However, Euro-top construction is generally linked to below-average durability.
Motion Isolation 2 – Like other innersprings, the Saatva mattress does not absorb or minimize motion to a significant extent. This may be problematic for certain sleepers, such as couples who share a bed, since minimal motion isolation can lead to sleep disruptions.
Off-gassing 3 – The Saatva mattress emits some off-gassing (due in part to the polyfoam and memory foam layers), but most owners report that the odors dissipate within three to five days of unpackaging the mattress.
Conforming 3 – Saatva features coil-on-coil construction and memory foam in the comfort layer. This allows the mattress to conform more closely and relieve pressure to a greater extent than many competing innersprings — but all-foam and latex mattresses are considered the best option for sleepers that prefer close conforming and targeted pressure relief.
Sex 4 – The Saatva mattress is highly responsive and fairly bouncy, although the ‘Plush Soft’ and ‘Luxury Firm’ designs tend to be better for sex than the ‘Firm’.
Temperature Neutrality 4 – Mattresses that contain foam and memory foam tend to sleep the hottest. Saatva has a more traditional innerspring construction so our testing along with data analysis show that it’s one of the cooler mattress options on the market today compared to all-foam competitors.
Edge Support 4 – Innerspring mattresses tend to have optimal edge support and the Saatva is no exception. Customers report a consistent sleep surface (no-roll off when sleeping towards the edge) as well as above-average push back when sitting on the edge of the mattress.
Noise 3 – Roughly 7% of Saatva owners cite noise as a complaint. This is on par with noise complaints from all innerspring owners.

Big Bob Sleep Blog | Findings |
When Saatva set out to make a mattress in 2010, they wanted to upend the luxury mattress marketplace with a bed that doesn’t break the bank. The Saatva Mattress achieves just that, offering an exceptional innerspring bed composed of two coil layers – a coiled support base under individually wrapped coils – beneath high-density memory foam and a euro pillow top.

Saatva is an eco-conscious company that uses environmentally friendly materials throughout their bed. As a green option, Saatva has also cornered the market with free White Glove delivery, further establishing themselves as one of the pre-eminent, direct-to-consumer luxury mattresses.

The coil-on-coil support and reinforced edge helps maintain an even surface that will you aligned throughout the night. Also, you won’t be concerned about the Saatva conforming to your pressure points, since this bed has a nice cushioned feel.

With three firmness options – Medium Soft (4), Medium Firm (6), and Firm (7.5) – the Saatva Mattress can accommodate most everyone’s preferences and body profile. The Saatva Mattress is priced exceptionally well for what many deem a luxury bed. This is especially true when comparing it to other mattresses in its category. While innerspring beds can be found at very low prices, they don’t come close to meeting the quality of materials that the Saatva is made of. I love the price point on the Saatva relative to it’s nearest competition, which includes the WinkBed, Sapira, Nest’s Alexander Signature Hybrid, and the Brooklyn Aurora.

What Type of Sleeper Is Best Suited for a Saatva Mattress?
Based on my customer feedback, Saatva mattresses received the following grades among sleepers of different weights and preferred sleep positions. Please note that these ratings are subjective and that everyone has varying experiences on different mattresses. Sleeper comfort and spinal support are the most important factors when it comes to selecting a mattress.

Customer data combined with my own testing process, which uses sleepers of three different weight profiles sleeping in different positions, shows the Saatva is a superb choice for most folks. If you’re lighter weight, the Firm and Luxury Firm builds might be too firm. So, for those sleepers who weigh in below 130 lbs, I recommend the Plush Soft.

If you’re a little heavier, the Saatva the Firm and Luxury Firm will fit your profile quite well. You will definitely get the support you need on this mattress.

For more information on sleeping positions please see my guides for side, back, stomach and combination sleepers.

My testing process found the Saatva should also be great for you if…

designing my dorm room (bedding)! would love advice

hello all! i bought this wonderful set of sheets from pbteen, but i'm having a hard time finding a matching duvet cover that would help me achieve the cozy, comforting, way-too-influenced-by-Pinterest/tumblr bed that i so desire. i've done some poking around on the internet already, so i've linked some duvet covers i'm considering.
these are the sheets: http://rk.ptimgs.com/ptimgs/rk/images/dp/wcm/201420/0012/img45o.jpg
the bed is a twin xl and my comforteduvet insert is 63inx92in. i've been looking at the twin-sized bedding on h&m because i figure the size difference isn't too bad (twin duvet covers on h&m are 66x88)
this kind of pattern mixing is what i'm looking for: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mFBUnzZYk_c/UYBU86GcleI/AAAAAAAAQqM/93TQzXvZfpU/s1600/how+to+combine+pattern+(9).jpg
and these are some examples of covers i've looked it: 1. http://www.hm.com/us/product/13419?article=13419-A#article=13419-A 2. http://www.hm.com/us/product/13531?article=13531-B#article=13531-D 3. http://www.hm.com/us/product/19295?article=19295-A 4. http://www.hm.com/us/product/15740?article=15740-A
a lot of greys, mostly cause i'm struggling to pull more color from the original pbteen sheets. i'm thinking of adding two solid color pillow cases+ one more print?
i'm not limited to h&m, but i'd like to spend to <$60. as impossibly gorgeous anthropologie bedding is, i just can't justify spending that much money on college bedding.
sorry for the long post and thanks for reading!
p.s. this is the target comforter i tried to match with the sheets and just nope (green): http://www.target.com/p/room-essentials-reversible-solid-comforte-/A-13327404#prodSlot=medium_1_4&term=room+essentials+comforter'
i plan on stuffing the target comforter into the duvet cover!

Saatva is an eco-conscious company that uses environmentally friendly materials throughout their bed. As a green option, Saatva has also cornered the market with free White Glove delivery, further establishing themselves as one of the pre-eminent, direct-to-consumer luxury mattresses.

Durability 2 – Most innerspring mattresses last between six and seven years, and Saatva mattresses seem to be on par with this lifespan. However, Euro-top construction is generally linked to below-average durability.
Motion Isolation 2 – Like other innersprings, the Saatva mattress does not absorb or minimize motion to a significant extent. This may be problematic for certain sleepers, such as couples who share a bed, since minimal motion isolation can lead to sleep disruptions.
Off-Gassing 3 – The Saatva mattress emits some off-gassing (due in part to the polyfoam and memory foam layers), but most owners report that the odors dissipate within three to five days of unpackaging the mattress.
Conforming 3 – Saatva features coil-on-coil construction and memory foam in the comfort layer. This allows the mattress to conform more closely and relieve pressure to a greater extent than many competing innersprings — but all-foam and latex mattresses are considered the best option for sleepers that prefer close conforming and targeted pressure relief.
Sex 4 – The Saatva mattress is highly responsive and fairly bouncy, although the ‘Plush Soft’ and ‘Luxury Firm’ designs tend to be better for sex than the ‘Firm’.
Temperature Neutrality 4 – Mattresses that contain foam and memory foam tend to sleep the hottest. Saatva has a more traditional innerspring construction so our testing along with data analysis show that it’s one of the cooler mattress options on the market today compared to all-foam competitors.
Edge Support 4 – Innerspring mattresses tend to have optimal edge support and the Saatva is no exception. Customers report a consistent sleep surface (no-roll off when sleeping towards the edge) as well as above-average push back when sitting on the edge of the mattress.
Noise 3 – Roughly 7% of Saatva owners cite noise as a complaint. This is on par with noise complaints from all innerspring owners.

I am not affiliated with any brands or retailers. I am just a guy who got burnt with buying expensive dud mattresses. I do not take money for ads or commission to spin a positive review. I will shut this whole project down before that happens. The mattresses reviewed are of new mattresses purchased anyways so I am not spending any money to buy these mattresses to review. If there is enough traffic, I may recover the thousands of dollars spent on the two dud mattresses, but I’ll sleep on that. Let’s get some good information out first, may the odds ever be in your favor.

Best Bet for Your Sleeper Preference
Saatva mattresses received the following grades among sleepers of different weights and preferred sleep positions. Please note that these ratings are subjective, and that everyone has varying experiences on different mattresses. Sleeper comfort and spinal support are the most important factors when it comes to selecting a mattress.
The coil-on-coil support and reinforced edge helps maintain an even surface that will you aligned throughout the night. Also, you won’t be concerned about the Saatva conforming to your pressure points, since this bed has a nice cushioned feel.
With three firmness options – Medium Soft (4), Medium Firm (6), and Firm (7.5) – the Saatva Mattress can accommodate most everyone’s preferences and body profile. The Saatva Mattress is priced exceptionally well for what many deem a luxury bed. This is especially true when comparing it to other mattresses in its category. While innerspring beds can be found at very low prices, they don’t come close to meeting the quality of materials that the Saatva is made of. I love the price point on the Saatva relative to its nearest competition, which includes the WinkBed, Sapira, Nest’s Alexander Signature Hybrid, and the Brooklyn Aurora.
Customer data combined with my own testing process, which uses sleepers of three different weight profiles sleeping in different positions, shows the Saatva is a superb choice for most folks. If you’re lighter weight, the Firm and Luxury Firm builds might be too firm. So, for those sleepers who weigh in below 130 lbs, I recommend the Plush Soft. If you’re a little heavier, the Saatva the Firm and Luxury Firm will fit your profile quite well. You will definitely get the support you need on this mattress.

This would be great for you if:

Pros
· Zoned comfort layer offers enhanced pain and pressure relief
· Great motion isolation and no noise
· Longer-than-average sleep trial and warranty coverage
· Free shipping
Cons
· Weak edge support
· Limited firmness and profile options
· Above-average price-point compared to other memory foam beds

Bed Buddy Report |Findings |
The TriSupport Mattress from Level Sleep is an all-foam bed constructed with a memory foam comfort layer and a high-density polyfoam support core. The removable, washable cover is made from stretch polyester.
The comfort layer is divided into three sections, or zones, with differing firmness settings. The head of the bed is ‘Soft’ to provide ample cushioning to the neck and shoulders; the midsection is ‘Firm’ for enhanced spine and lower back support; and the foot of the bed is ‘Medium’ for optimal conforming at the hips, which can improve spinal alignment. Overall the mattress has a ‘Medium’ firmness, which corresponds to 5.5 on the 1-10 firmness scale.
In addition to close conforming that targets aches, pains, and pressure points in different areas of the body, the TriSupport Mattress also isolates motion transfer well and produces no noise when compressed. The mattress is suitable for a wide range of sleeper weights and sleep positions.

What Type of Sleeper Is Best Suited for a Level Sleep Mattress?
Based on my customer feedback, the TriSupport Mattress from Level Sleep has received the following grades among sleepers of different weights and preferred sleep positions. Please note that these ratings are subjective, and that everyone has varying experiences on different mattresses. Sleeper comfort and spinal support are the most important factors when it comes to selecting a mattress.
As you can see, the TriSupport Mattress is most suitable for side and back sleepers, as well as those in the light weight group (less than 130 pounds) and the average weight group (130 to 230 pounds). Additionally, sleepers in the heavy weight group (more than 230 pounds) who prefer ‘Medium’ firmness beds may feel comfortable on this mattress. However, the mattress is only available in one design and thickness profile; sleepers who prefer thicker beds or models with different comfort layers may find this selection too limiting.
