Will you visit Tatooine while you are there?

Oh good, they were definitely just saying AU.

From what I have read, traditional weight loss is about 30% muscle and 70% fat. With Semiglutide drugs, it's more like 50/50. I don't think that they know why. If I could Deadlift 300 pounds two years ago, it's more like 235 now. So, i'm not worried about being frail, but there is definitely a difference.

My youngest is at UAB, I will have to see which of the other schools it was.

I know, it was so good!

I feel so bad remembering that so many people lost loved ones and had their work / home lives upended, but working from home in PJs with no commute will always be my core happy memory!

Thanks, I was a little worried about me, too! I couldn't understand why I couldn't land at a functional school, until I finally realized there aren't any, anymore. I'm really happy I took the gamble to go back to school and give myself a fresh start :)

In case he doesn't get back online to answer you--this is a family trip (with his brother and daughter). They are sightseeing but there is also a big focus on commemorating an uncle who died there during a battle in WWII. I am so sad I didn't have enough time PTO to join them--it looks like an amazing itinerary!

Heck yeah--if others can thrive without crushing guilt, I think that is definitely the right move, lol. Maybe someday.

There was a poem I remember from school and I have never been able to find who wrote it. As well as I remember,

The vast horizon emcompasses only me

A drop on the surface of the sea

The sea itself just a drop in the endless spam of space

I would love to find it and see how well I remember the actual words but the idea of how insignificant a person really is has stayed with me for life.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends

True, but this was Trish's first time trying it out so I was cheering her on. I do best posting my plan for the day and confessing any indiscretions the next day too.
