My wife and I have been rewatching Superstore again. It's a good show, I didn't watch it much when it was first airing because I was working at Walmart and not only does it take place in a store like Walmart, it takes place in St. Louis which I live about 45 minutes away from so it just hit too close to home at the time for me to enjoy it lol. But I love it now!

I'm sorry to hear. I can't imagine how difficult that was.

It was difficult for sure. We still have our moments when we think we'll be seeing Gizmo just around the corner. He was a great cat.

Has anyone ever use the free forum host, Boardhost before? I've used them just to test it out, they use FluxBB as their software of choice. They also offer message board hosting, which is interesting to see. I'm not really a fan of message board layouts, they're somewhat like Reddit but you have to click on each individual reply to read them. If I remember correctly, you also have to provide your phone number to the host so you can get a code to create your forum. Anyways you can check them out by visiting the link below:

Boardhost: Create a free forum or message board. Reliable, remotely hosted.

It was sunny out today. It got up to 79 degrees and it was humid out. Right now it's currently 73 degrees since the sun is setting.

I've never tried them before but they sound good!

I'm sorry you're having issues with your parents. I hope they give you the space you need and try not to control you.

My day started off a bit crappy but got better as it went on. I'm happy it's my weekend again though lol.

Does your neighborhood have a special day for garage sales? Or have you ever set up one before? My neighborhood is having it's huge annual garage sale event going on right now. I haven't had the chance to look at anything my neighbors were selling, but I did happen to glance over at the house next to the house across the street from mine. They looked to be selling mainly clothes and that's it really. I remember having a garage sale once when I was a kid, I had a few Genesis games for sale but no one ended up buying them lol.

Progrumz Aww! We have 3 cats. Have you always had cats?

Ravenfreak I feel for the loss of your cat! When our dog passed away in 2012, I had salt burns around my eyes for months. Furbabies are family to us. Are you going to get a new cat? When we weren't ready for a dog but wanted that dog "fix", we volunteered at shelters or just looked around.

We're going to get a friend for our kitten Mochi at some point for sure. Not really sure when, just whenever my wife is ready to get another cat. We'll probably get another kitten or young cat for Mochi to grow up with.

I made an account when it first opened up and I probably used it a few times ever since. There isn’t anything on threads that keeps me wanting to check on it or use it daily.

Same here, that's why I haven't used it since I first joined. I barely get on social media to begin with these days anyways lol.

Does anyone like listening to MIDI style music? I've always had a soft spot for it since it reminds me of being a kid and going over to my grandma's house and playing games on her PC lol. Recently I started to listen to music from this fun puzzle game I would play called ÜZ 3.0. I love that cheesy sounding music! This is one of my favorite songs from the game:

I am so sorry to hear of both of your losses! We had to put down our dog in 2012 & our 18 year old cat July 2021. Those were the more recent ones. It hurts!

Sending both of you virtual hugs!!

It's always tough when your pets pass. Thank you for the virtual hugs, it means a lot! He lived a long life and we're happy we gave him a good one. We got his ashes the other day, still deciding on which picture we're going to put in the urn and where we're going to place his ashes so our kitten doesn't knock them over. :V

Happy May Day

Ravenfreak I hope you are feeling better. What is going on with your wife, if you don't mind me asking? Sometimes stress, health problems, heck, just life, can bring us down & make it hard to function.

Naiwen Good Morning!

Progrumz Do you also have pets along with your 3 children?

My wife had a bit of a stomach bug it seems. She's feeling physically better now, but is still not doing great mentally since our cat passed away.

Take care Naiwen, your health comes before everything else! Take as long as you need, we will be here whenever you return to the internet world.

Unfortunately Gizmo passed on Friday. My wife and I have been doing okay, but we're not fully back to our old selves. In time I'm sure we'll feel a bit better. It just feels weird without him being right next to our bed. I dreamt of him last night, he was on the side of the bed on the floor and he came over to me and meowed. Just like he would do whenever he was hungry and seen me get up for work lol.

I do like their pizza, but it really upsets my stomach. So I don't get it that often.

Today was a terrible day for my wife and I. We lost our 16 year old Maine Coon mix named Gizmo. He was one of the sweetest, chillest cats I've ever had in my life. He was very vocal as well, and would always meow whether it was because he wanted food or attention. He hasn't been doing great the past few days, so I sadly knew it was probably his time was coming fast. It happened so suddenly because he has been drinking water and eating food... RIP to Gizmo. He had many nicknames too, I would call him mister purrs, sir purrs a lot, hecking chonk, detective ploppers, and potato. My kitten Mochi looked for him for a brief moment after we came home from the vet. We will be getting another cat for Mochi in the future, but not right away. Gizmo was my wife's cat and she got him right before we graduated high school in 2008. This is the hardest part about owning pets. Here's my hecking chonk, I miss you buddy.

I love garlic bread, especially with cheese on top! Pizza hut does have good garlic bread for sure. I love Little Caesar's crazy bread the most though.

My day could have been better. I'm worried about my cat Gizmo, I think it might be his time to cross the rainbow bridge soon. My wife and I are talking about taking him to the vet soon. It's hard but I don't want him to suffer. He's been meowing weirdly lately, and he had a accident on our bed. He's been having issues jumping up on things too and he fell a few times trying to jump on my wife's chair and lap.
