At my every 1.5 year appointment with my diabetes specialist doctor. One of the problems I didn't expect from my military service, yet here I am. Every time I come it's always much the same, but at least I'm Canadian and don't need to worry about the costs.

Me and my wife are currently waiting for the results of our cat Mylo's dental surgery. His resistance to the pain meds, having a heart mermur, and being very underweight (due to him not eating much as it's painful) factors in our worries. He should be stubborn enough to make it out though.

I really need to figure out what keeps triggering these chronic headaches and migraines. I know that my bad back causes some of them, just not all. That and a better way of dealing with them that doesn't seem to make them worse. Though Loki seems not to care at all.

Mylo isn't a lap cat, and never sought comfort from me. In years past I couldn't even feed him due to his very strong bond with "Mother" and me being only the "spare". However due to his teeth/month issues getting worse, and us giving vet approved meds, it results in him doing this at rare times.

I thought to redo my interview as it just seems I'm rambling on tangents. But as someone else pointed out it's definitely my talking style, and it's not *too* overwhelming this time. It doesn't help that I did a lot of very scattered work, more than the other interviewees who have firmer focuses.

As we hurdle into 2026, it helps to look back on 2025 and say, "Man, that year sucked." Unless you were a Sarna editor! Then it sucked slightly less because you made the best BattleTech wiki that much better. Here's our year-end review! www.sarna.net/news/sarna-2...

Your last BattleTech news update for the year comes a little early, as I don't want to be writing this on New Year's. Plus, there's a very special video coming in two days that y'all should really know about :) www.sarna.net/news/battlet...

Recently found in basement storage boxes and from early 2015 in Victoria, I miss those simple days and having enough free time to basically go to all these MtG events, and various other events at Yellowjacket. (That first episode of Friday Nights S9 by @loadingreadyrun.com really hit the feels)
