Looking for a dog walker

Hey y'all, I recently moved to the area, and I was wondering if anyone knows any good dog walkers or is interested in work as a dog walker? I just moved to the East side of Salinas near Fort Ord, and I have a very sweet Husky that I need help with walking in the evening when I'm at work. I've been having a tough time finding dog walkers due to my work schedule and when I need help with dog walking. If anyone knows anyone who is willing to do dog walks for around 15-30 minutes in the evenings (think around 7 or 8pmish), suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your consideration!

Independent cartoons in Pacific Grove Sept. 6

Hey y’all, some friends and I run PULP and we’re putting on a little animation pop-up at the Pacific Grove Art Center on September 6th.

Basically: local vendors + a couple hours of weird/funny/independent cartoons from animators all over.

Doors open at 6, cartoons start at 7. We’ve got Girl in Her Room by Grace Ruby headlining, the first three episodes of Shermy’s Forest, Harbor City, Derum and Zern, Cop Out and a bunch of other stuff.

We did PULPFEST last year and packed the Art Center, so we’re trying to make smaller animation nights like this a more regular thing around Monterey County.

Proceeds help us keep doing these + support the Pacific Grove Art Center.

Sept 6 • 568 Lighthouse Ave • doors @ 6 / cartoons @ 7

Come watch some cartoons with us :)

Local nurseries for compost and potting soil?

Hi all! Curious what local nurseries or landscaping suppliers you guys go to for compost and potting soil? I know it’s end of summer but I have some plants I need to transplant and wanted something that wasn’t just bagged miracle grow from Home Depot or Lowe’s. TIA!

FREE BINGO 2NITE @OTTERS DEN! Peep out the prize vault!! 🤯😲

Look at all these bad @ss businesses that donated to the prize tables!!! Tonight we have gift certificates/cards, gift baskets of goodies, (including a reaaally cool handmade beard kit in a cigar box), and so much more to chose from! And of course, I had to make y’all more hilarious pots to go in the plants I got ya, aaaand made more THICCOLAS CAGE wine glasses since y’all were fighting over him last week 🤣🤣.

HEAR ME OUT THOUGH: Seats fill up FAST, so if you stroll in at 7 when we start, there might not be a place to sit. Bring a clipboard and a chair if you’re gonna be late, just in case 🤣.

Anywho, in order for us to AFFORD to do this, we do ask that you purchase at least an item or two from the bar (we have no kitchen sadly). Could be mocktails, cocktails, Red Bulls whatever, but its only fair we keep the seats and tables available for our paying customers. I’m sure you understand.

Oh geez, some of you have no clue what I’m talking about, I didn’t think that through lol. Ok.. HI THERE! I’m Ninja, and I love to put FUN events together, like this one for example. I tend bar at The Otters Den but also host all the events like Murder Mysteries, Open Mic, Speed Dating, etc. etc. etc. lol. Truth be told, I work ridiculously hard on anything that brings people together, with laughs and a great time. A few hours of an escape from the stressors of life if you will. But… I NEVER thought doing a “little” free bingo would be THIS BIG, to the point my sweet husband was making new tables last night to accommodate more folks. Never woulda guessed this! But its a lot of fun and worth every bit to see everyone have such a fun time ☺️. WARNING: I have a potty mouth and am NOT your average bingo caller!! 🤣

DEETS:
Location: OTTERS DEN SPORTS BAR. 3166 Vista Del Camino in Marina next to Wells Fargo.
Time: 7pm-9:00-ISH (but stay later for free pool and darts after that if you wanna!)
Age: 21 and up venue. Zero exceptions.
Hosts: Ninja & Josh

Feel free to text or call me if you want to add to the prize table for your business. It’s WONDERFUL advertisement! (4O8) 469-1O41

See ya tonight folks!! “BINGO!!”

I can't afford to move back to my own hometown.

It really bums me out that I'm too poor to move back home. I was looking at places on Zillow this past week and I can't find a single studio/1br for less than $2K. I miss the overcast skies, my heart yearns to be near the lettuce fields. Oh well. I guess I'm stuck in Sacramento. Unbelievable. Priced out of my own hometown. How are you guys surviving?

Drive through car wash

Hi Salinas County, my car is definitely due for a car wash from a long road trip and had dirt and bird poop all over now.

Paycheck finally hit so can afford car wash, where would be a good place to roll through?

I prefer the drive-thru car washes more than the DIY

Does anyone work for USPS?

I am trying to find out if Salinas or other offices needs an RCA (rural carrier assistant). I had an account with USPS jobs at one time, but having a terrible time logging into the site to search. TIA!

Maya Cinema

Did they get a new system?

My account has been wiped clean.

My movie history is gone.

I had 5 free popcorn that I earned from watching movies there and now it's all gone.

Did this happen to everyone?
