Hey Butties 😘

Sorry for being a little MIA (missing in action) this weekend but I actually was outta town on a mini vacation! Got to go to a concert, hang out at a botanical garden🌺, and also check out the local museumπŸ¦–

All in all, it was a lovely way to decompress…especially after last week’s depressing (literally) weekend! But fitting all that in just short of 2 days was indeed a bit tiresome so I’m glad to get back to my usual scheduled programming.

But first here are a few shots of my trip just so you know your boy was out here living life and making memories πŸ“Έ

Woohoo for a mini vacation! It must have been so amazing to get out and do something you enjoyed, especially after the last weekend. So I’m glad you were able to go out and have fun! And the pictures are absolutely gorgeous! 🩡 Also, good luck for your doctor’s appointment! It sucks that there’s a hiccup with the health stuff, but hoping that the appointment goes good and things settle down again! Sending tons of positive vibes and wishes! 🩡✨

Dani

Okay, I seriously thought those seals were real and you somehow magically got close enough to get that shot without getting attacked πŸ˜‚

Shiv

I just realized that they weren’t real after I read your comment πŸ˜…

Haha, yeah, it was just a display at the museum I visited! Woulda been funny to see seals at a place that's known for its high elevation and not being anywhere near the coast! πŸ” But know that if I had seen seals, I would be smart enough to give them their earned respect and space haha 🦭✨

It definitely was a nice way to get a breather after having a bit of a rough time lately... however, I was gifted a wonderful parting present when I made it back: I got sick 😷 So now I'm fighting off a mini-cold to go with my mini-vacation 😭 Thank you also for the well wishes on my Doctor trip this weekend! It's been nearly 2 months since I last saw them so seeing what he says with my update will be interesting ✌🏼

Normal people bring home fun t-shirts or other souvenirs from their vacations. But not Gentle Geek, no sir! He comes back with a virus. πŸ˜‚ Let's be happy for the little things... Like he only got the regular cold and not something more "exotic". I wish Gentle Geek a speedy recovery! πŸ’– (I would suggest to drink hot tea on it but the fact is that my fellow tea addict is sickly, too, now so the impossible became true and it turned out that tea actually isn't an all-purpose cure. 😜)

Shiv

Ahaha. I can relate all too well. When I went on vacation this past month, I brought back a souvenir of not only a cold, but mosquito bites too πŸ˜…. Seems like Gentle and I are one and the same. But also wishing you well. Getting a cold, especially after a vacation is no fun. Hope you recover soon and yes, tea is a must! 🩡

Kleo S.

Girl! I'm basically covered in mosquito bites right now. I have spent some time in nature these last couple of weeks and those blasted insects were after my blood. Luckily no cold. Touch the wood. Warm tea, warm hugs (even from a blanket alone 😜), warm socks... those work miracles with cold. ✨

Shiv

Oof. Hearing of your mosquito bites is making me itchy. Those sneaky mosquitos always know whose blood is the best to suck on. And definitely! All the warmth for the cold (though my warm hug only comes from my blanket and pillow 😭😭)

Kleo S.

I can tell how excited you are about the Japan trip but please! You're an overperformer, we all know that but it's your trip, your vacation, make sure to enjoy the whole experience, make yourself the priority and don't stress about content delivery at that time. Make memories, experience things first hand, immerse yourself in the experience. That's what's the best thing about travelling. Not obsessing about photos, videos or preparing presentations for others. This is not your work project, you don't need to do a 70-slide PowerPoint presentation about it, not even for us here. πŸ˜‰ 😘✨

Kleo S.

My blood ain't even the best! 🀣 (low iron) I don't know what they see on me! I always attract the bad types of bites πŸ˜πŸ˜‚ Yeah... Blanket and dogs in my case. But hey, my dogs are hairy, sometimes a bit smelly, they need me to feed them and take care of them 24/7... it's nearly like having a husband. 🀣 Even better. My dogs obey my orders and don't talk back to me 😜🀣🀣🀣

Shiv

Lmao! Are we also one and the same? Cause same with the iron issues. But also, the mosquitos that bit me probably saw my foreign blood and thought β€œooh, we’re eating good tonight” πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­ Also, I should check my priorities now. Maybe I should get a dog instead of getting a husband πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. (But jokes cause I’m not looking for a man πŸ˜…, and most men aren’t bad. Plus they can give out the good kind of bites πŸ˜‚πŸ˜)

Kleo S.

No way! Low iron twins! πŸ˜‚ I mean yeah, you're such an exotic meal for them! (It's a weird type of compliment but it is... I think... πŸ˜‚) Dogs are awesome! I always support more dog adoptions. My babies are rescues from South Korean dog farms. Came from hell. Now they sleep in bed with me and are on BARF diet which is the healthiest (and surprisingly most expensive 🀣) type of dog diet known for now. And they are worth all of it 😍 Even without biting. (My girl gives kisses and licks, though, that's really sweet of her) Now I realised, we kinda spammed Gentle Geek's comment section... Sorry, bro! Not an intention. Shiv is just too nice and fun person, how could I possibly resist her? 🀭

Shiv

Ahaha. I will definitely take the compliment 🩡 Dogs are definitely a godsend. My sister adopted two and they are the loves of my life. Though huskies and they shed a lot, they leave their mark everywhere they go, literally and figuratively. πŸ©΅πŸ˜… And sorry Gentle πŸ˜…! Kleo and I are having too much fun, and she’s just awesome!

Kleo S.

I love huskies! 😍 But honestly, I couldn't have them. I live in a flat and I'm not the type to be happy about 10 km runs every day to make those powerhouse dogs happy. πŸ˜‚ Mine are mixed breads, probably with Jindo dog (Korean bread) and my boy looks like a mix of Kishu dog (Japanese breed) so they do resemble Huskies a little, they have similar intelligent and idependent nature (that's putting it nicely that they are stubborn like hell) and they shed TONS! Everywhere they go, they leave a white trace, clumps of hairs... I love to wear black clothes... HUGE mistake to get myself two white dogs 🀣 But I couldn't help it. They were adopted before, each to a different family but both were returned back to the shelter. In foster family they got used to each other and in the description it was said it would be ideal for them to go to a new home together. And because they were already labeled as "problematic" dogs and there are not many people who would adopt two dogs at once, I just knew they were for me. It was a love at first sight, first face lick, first paw in my hand... I swear Gentle Geek is gonna delete this string when he sees it... 😬 But I agree, it's worth it. It's so nice to meet you, Shiv! 😘

Shiv

Oh! I looked them up, and those dogs look absolutely adorable! Yeah, the hair is def no joke. I’ll find hairs around my house even though the dogs live with my sister πŸ˜…. But it’s so amazing that you adopted them together! I just know you are giving them a much better life than what they had in the past 🩡 And sorry again Gentle! Please don’t hate us πŸ˜…. But it was definitely a pleasure to chat with you Kleo! πŸ₯°

Kleo S.

I sometimes take something from original packing and it already has the dog hair on it. It's faster than physics even allows to be 🀣 (Are we finishing it up here or are we actually aiming some record number of comments now? I'm just asking. I can stop anytime but I kinda started to have fun. 🀭)

Shiv

Facts. Also, it depends on how annoyed Gentle gets with us. But I am finishing up for the night cause it is 4:30 am in my neck of the woods (thanks Gentle for getting me onto that phrase) and I should probably go to bed πŸ˜…

Kleo S.

That's my getting up time πŸ˜‚ But I need to run some errands now anyway so I wish you a sound sleep, sweet dreams and good rest. πŸ’– Gentle Geek won't get annoyed... right? Right? If you never hear from me again, he managed to somehow murder me over screen. 😜

Shiv

Have fun with your errands! And hopefully we’ll chat again (maybe not in Gentle’s comments though πŸ˜…). That is if we make it out alive (cause he’s def murder me over the screen too)

Kleo S.

So we meet in afterlife πŸ˜‚ Always look on the bright side of life πŸ˜‰

GentleGeek's Geek Squad

Thank you so much for the kind reminder cause haha, yep... that whole overachieving aspect of my personality can definitely be a thing I fight with πŸ˜… So I'll for sure be having fun and keeping my thoughts on the day to day adventures, then afterwards look to see what I experienced that I'll share with y'all! Though I will do a fun little check-in audio for sure while I'm there cause I mean, when will I get another chance to do that? πŸ˜‡ But once again, thank you for helping me to stay focused on living life! ✨

GentleGeek's Geek Squad

Haha, this entire comment thread just had me smiling! I kept scrolling to how long the conversation was going for and it just kept going 🀣 And I'm absolutely not hating on you guys for connecting and sharing, so please oh please feel free to use this space in whatever ways you like. It's as much yours as it is mine if you ask me! πŸ˜‡ On a side note: I went to bed last night with the most congestion and stuffed up nose in recent memory, only to wake up feeling a WHOLE lot better and being able to breathe freely again πŸŽ‰ So definitely a mini-cold after all. Still not completely outta the woods yet on this but I'm thinking another day or so and I'll be good as new! Most definitely not the souvenir I was hoping to bring back from my recent adventure 😭

Kleo S.

So Shiv, looks like we are not meeting in after life. I thought I'm being rebellious the whole time and it turns out it's encouraged to spam comment sections. Such a disappointment. πŸ˜‚ Gentle Geek, please, try to bring a better souvenir from Japan. 😜 You know... A little Japanese flag, a fridge magnet, t-shirt, a little Torii gate statue... Something normal. Not a contagious health hazard. πŸ˜‰πŸ˜˜

Shiv

Woohoo! We survived. Ahaha jk. But in all seriousness, I always sound like a broken record, but Gentle, you are too kind! 🩡 And I totally agree with Kleo. As someone who has also personally experienced this, I 10/10 recommend bringing back a different souvenir from Japan πŸ˜πŸ˜… But it’s also good that you’re feeling better! It’s always so easy to take breathing freely for granted until you can’t anymore πŸ˜
