Applied and tested highly for Corporal, and have the oral board for that on 1/7, so things are definitely looking up.

I'm sure you'll do fine on the oral.

She does, and even better, she likes The Darkness.

My work, which I consider both my life's passion and a rewarding hobby, has yielded remarkable productivity and significant financial success, exceeding even my most ambitious goals.

The regular periods of dedicated time away from work to recharge, were devoted to traveling, primarily for exhilarating high-altitude mountaineering adventures and to catch live shows.

Reflecting on the year, there is nothing bad to report. While challenges are inevitable, I am fortunate that 2024 has been a year of remarkable growth, achievement, and profound personal satisfaction. I am grateful that life, as always, has been beyond ideal, and am confident that the future holds even greater promise.

I hope all the sludgers had a wonderful holiday and I wish you the best in 2025!

What do you actually do for work? A professional rock climber?

Unlike the glamorous life of a professional rock climber or a musician, my profession as a scientist, specifically a physicist, while intellectually demanding, is often considered quite nerdy. Mountaineering serves as my escape, a vital outlet to recharge, since my life revolves almost entirely around my work, i.e. by choice, I spend nearly all my waking hours working.

The death of good and the triumph of shit.
