Alrighty, I'm back.

So looking for some work to get a little extra cash in, so if anyone is wanting a custom stained glass piece let me know. I'm also officially able to make some jewelry again now that I have a small forge set up. Reply here or send me a dm if you got something for me.

Tattoo artist rec

I’m looking for an artist who does some really black and gray work with a little color. I want someone who does really great black work in particular, the kind of black that looks like you spilled ink on your arm. Doesn’t have to be SM, but ideally in the new Braunfels to Austin area.

If you have an idea of hourly rates that would be helpful. Not trying to cheap out, but also don’t have the money for someone who charges $500+/ hour

Your honest thoughts about living in San Marcos

Hi guys, My boyfriend and I are considering moving to San Marcos later this year and I would love to hear your honest opinions about living here. We currently live in Denton and have lived here for 5+ years so we are very used to the college town environment. We’re both 26 and not necessarily trying to have kids or anything for the next few years, we just want to experience living somewhere new. We enjoy live music and spending time outdoors, we also enjoy going out occasionally but it just feels like that’s all you can do in Denton. Any advice/input is appreciated! Thanks!

Anyone driving to Tucson in the next month?

I have a small PA system (2 speakers and stands) in San Marcos that I want to deliver to Tucson. Would pay $100 for someone to pick it up at the university and deliver to Tucson. Thanks!

Bars that play RnB, jazz, or quiet storm?

Honestly, if I'm gonna get my drink on, I want crooning. Is there a bar in town that has these vibes?

Dog walker and behavioralist

Hello all!! My name is Meredith i’m a junior at txst and i’m looking for extra sources of income. I have 5 years of experience working with dogs of all shapes and sizes :) my most relevant experience is handling police K-9 units in a boarding environment as well as reactivity training with larger breeds (akita, doberman, belgian malinois, german shepherd, anatolian shepherd) I am available for short or long walks with integrated training. I offer hiking options with minimal contact with other dogs or people if your pup is not comfortable with others! Or we can do more public walks with limited exposure to other dogs if needed. I’m comfortable with the use of muzzles whether there is a bite risk or if your pup tends to eat things they shouldn’t on walks.

I will not use shock collars and will not accept clients who require the use of them

I am happy to give references of current clients and previous employers. My availability is set due to classes but I am more than happy to find times that work best for you!! Feel free to PM me with any questions or concerns :)

Best state park to tent camp and kayak?

Basically title, trying to plan a trip to camp and kayak for a few days and grill! Ideally within 2-3 hours of a drive.

Hot showers are basically my only requirement (if the spot is cool enough I can forget about that though!)

Anyone want a few bags of Concrete Floor Leveler?

I have four unopened 50lb bags of Rapid Set Concrete Leveler that I need to get rid of. They’re going into the trash if no one wants them. I’d prefer if you picked them up, but I can drop them off if you aren’t too far from Craddock rd.

Moving to San Marcos

Hey everyone. This is my first ever Reddit post :)

I will be relocating to San Marcos next month. I spent most of my childhood in San Antonio, but will be moving from the Dallas area. I’m 25 years old (male) and will be working for TXST.

I’m wondering which apartment complexes are worth looking at, and which ones I should avoid. Also, what is there to do in San Marcos? Any good coffee shops? I’m very excited to get down there!

Any info is appreciated, thanks in advanced!

Stolen Motorcycle ($ Reward)

$100 for any info that directly or indirectly leads to the bike being found.

My motorcycle was stolen sometime in the last week or so. It was taken from around Post Rd, north of the stadium. It was in between being rebuilt when the cold hit, so it was only the frame, engine, and tires. The bike is a 1980 Yamaha XT250, though it won't say that anywhere easily visible.

It looks like the attached photo, only with the engine in place. The tires are old, but they say GoldenBoy on the sides.

I don't know why someone would even take it, it had no carburetor or gas tank, the frame/exhaust is rusted, and the engine doesn't fire right now.

If you have any info, or even see anything that looks like it, please let me know. Thanks ya'll! Stay safe.
