My cats that went missing came back today. I’m sort of happy about that, but I’m far more happy for my wife who was so distraught about them being missing and is so happy they are back safe and sound.

That's great. As someone who has had a cat or two randomly go missing, it really is so much worse never knowing what happened to them.
Yeah they were gone for a week and then they just showed up, still as fat as before. Someone’s been feeding them, those fucking traitor cats.
I bought a bike today! I'm very pleased.
Oh nice! Any plans for it?
It's a 40 year old Fuji road bike that a local co-op refurbished and I'm in love. It's for my commute- I'm scheduled early for an 8-week project and the bus doesn't run til later. I haven't seriously biked since the mid 1990s, but I rode it home during rush hour yesterday with very little grief.
Awesome. The eagles, loons, and ospreys are back. It's track and field season. The weather has been great.
What is this, Australia?
That vine is even better than I remember.
Massively overworked due to summer holidays starting, so everyone wants projects done before that.
Massive hematoma in my back thigh hasn't healed properly even after 3 months, and still causing swelling and makes it hard to walk.
Considering upping my ADHD meds because they seem to be losing effectiveness (still in early stages of testing the meds, 6 months on them now).
Everything is getting expensive and even with higher than mean salary for my country, two working adults and no kids, we're barely scraping by.
ISP lied to me and my fiber is getting installed in 2027 instead of summer of 2025, so I'm stuck with 5g, but at least the transmitter is 60m from my house, so it works pretty well.
Russia, The US, radical conservatism and the climate change causes me immeasurable dread and sense of impending doom, that's causing my anxiety to get worse.
I never have time, energy and motivation at the same time to work on hobby projects I would really love to work on.
Other than that, I'm alright. It's not as bad as it sounds, could be worse. Got a job, roof over my head, no drug habits, don't really drink anymore after years of crippling alcoholism. Dog's allergies are finally under control after a very long hassle of and a lot of money, so that's good. Gotta focus on the positives.
Thank you for asking, apparently I had some stuff I wanted to get out, didn't even really realize that.
How about you, how are you doing OP? (And everyone else of course.)
Damn that was fast.
I'm fine. And you?
Doin good
