Think I'll go the DIY route with the gear sport. Looking at some tear downs, I think I can change the battery to salvage it. Gonna order the tool kit later on today.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

So yesterday I decided to get older by a year.

We went to Paris for lunch and a bit of a walk around.

Still learning about the place. Lots to see still.
So what would you have done if you decided to get younger buy a year?

Took my best girl for a great lunch by the sea on her special day.

A bit of editing..

Didn't get much sleep last night, stayed up to watch the CL finals. Liverpool was victorious in a rather drab match. But over the course of the competition they were excellent. "YNWA"

Nice pictures except for the Liverpool ones. As a disgruntled Spurs fan, I'm semi OK with Liverpool winning. Spurs were too all or nothing this year and our depth was terrible.

That would be like winning the lottery...

However probably would've done the same thing.

There are we worse places than Paris to celebrate your birthday regardless which way it goes.

My condolences for your recent loss!!



BTW... Spurs should not have started with Harry Kane. He wasn't anywhere near match fit.

So here's lunch.

Though veganism isn't huge in France, Paris is getting more restaurants and so are other big cities. This place appeared fancier online than what it was in person. But the food was good. That's all that matters.

So in order: avocado egg, a curry and a strawberry dessert.

All were delicious.

We all knew that no matter how rusty he was, Ports would have been skewered if Kane had come off the bench.

Happy birthday! That does look good. How does it feel to celebrate here?

The early goal changed whatever game plan both team had...
Spurs lacked experience in Europe, and it showed. Liverpool was uncharacteristically subdued. It was a scrappy disjointed display by everyone, except our keeper.
We got over the line, I guess that's all that mattered...

Understood. As long as you enjoyed it, that's all that matters.

Yup. When I saw Salah scored two mins in, I knew we were screwed. We will see how the off-season shakes...your team did deserve to win a title this year after such a splendid season.

Most interesting offerings so far in 2019 - Nubia Red Magic 3 and Asus Zenfone 6. A whole ot of good phone for just the right amount of $. I like the idea of the Pixel 3A though.

I don't know how the F Google will be able to sell the Pixel 4.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Some truths have been unearthed and it has some weight to it. It's like a light burden if that makes sense. Phew. Working through it was not something I expected that I'll do but I guess I need to...

Stay the course and continue the work you need to do. It will pay off in the end.

Ever since we moved to Europe we've had a habit of celebrating birthdays all over the place.

Thanks!

There is a misconception about French people, especially those who live in Paris. However our experiences have always been good and I couldn't have wanted a better place to celebrate.

Thank you, I hope you're right. I'm sure that you are, but I'll like for that to come to pass. Having it kinda revealed to me does make me feel better that I am in the right place at least with being able to do it. Hopefully this will result in better relationships for me. (I mean mainly in the platonic sense, but I guess this could also affect things romantically as well)

Have you ever had something that you learned/realized and no matter what, you can't shake it? That's totally how this feels.
