He got sick. He got something's got something's going on with that guy. Something's going on with that. He's, uh, he's 17 months, which is crazy to think about. But, um,

yeah, these past, uh, handful of, of days here, he, he got a really bad chunky cough and stuff. But also he's teething really hard. So I, like, the thing is

when teeth are coming in, people go, oh, well, they'll get fevers. Oh, well, they'll get this. They'll get this. And my understanding is that that's not directly true.

But when you have a tooth coming in, you might be susceptible to infection and in a way that can lead to some of those symptoms. Anyway, I think he just got a cold, honestly.

Um, I don't think it's necessarily because he's, he's over it for the most part. He's still, he's still coughing it out a little bit. But, uh, yeah, these, these last few nights, he's been, I, honestly, he's been, he's been a trooper through it. The whole thing. He's, his, his spirit was, uh, like he was smiling, crawling around having a good time, like doing this thing. He was just like, wait a minute, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You know, and, uh, yeah, he, he, um, he did a fantastic, uh, he did a fantastic job.

Being sick. My daughter was sick just before that. But that almost seemed like allergies. I don't know. That came and went real fast to my wife and I find the whole time. Yeah, it's one of those things that, you know, the kids are just going to sick, get sick over and over again. But they get sick, which touched us a minor load of stuff or, or it's stuff that most adults have already had. And so, you know, you don't really have to worry about it. There was a bit there that I was like, am I getting sick? Feels like I might be getting a little something and then, and then no. But, uh, you know, it's

you never know with this stuff. I don't know. That's the thing as, as, as we kind of, um, you know, as, as we're out and about a little bit more, you know, there's, there's just going to be more time for them to be exposed to illness of all sorts.

Um, and, you know, these past few years of, you know, not, uh, of, of not going out and doing much, you know, that they're, they're due for, they're due for some stuff. We're all due for some colds and

Sinus stuff and, and whatever else. Um, let's see. What else? So we, uh, I talked about it on a separate stream, but just to catch everybody up. I did get that monitor. I got that LG monitor.

Um, and set it all up. And I've been working with that for the past handful of days here. And it's cool, man. It's, so this is a 27 inch monitor. The people want to know the exact model number. It's the

27 GR 95 QE dash B. And so it's the 27 inch ultra gear OLED gaming monitor. And, um,

I like it a lot. It's awesome. It is, it is a 240 Hertz monitor. It just, it does G sync and free sync. It's 1440 P, which I feel like is a really good sweet spot for a monitor. I don't really want, as someone who has a 4K monitor and has, and has had nothing but trouble with, um, stuff like OBS and stuff like text scaling and, and everything there. I hate 4K monitors on PC. Sputcom, but, um,

1440 P is sweet. And so this is really combining all of the things. You know, you want in a PC monitor. You know, that, that felt like it was always a $zillion. This is still a $1,000 monitor is not, that is not, it's not a cheap monitor. But when you think about getting these sorts of things onto one screen before with even, you know, you know, poor configuration. Some of those things were still like $3,000.

Just stupid, like stupid money. So when, when LG announced this and said, hey, we're putting this out for a grand. I was like, yep, okay, I'll get that. Yes, I want one of those.

And, um, you know, as someone who's owned LG TVs in the past, I was like, yeah, that's, that's something I want for.

That is something I want for my personal computer. And, um,
