Hey guys. This is Joy.

How do you like our new theme song, by the way?

It's like really, really uppity.

So we have to like lift up our intros a little bit more.

Which is hard sometimes. Like right now when it's 8 a.m. on a Sunday morning and my voice is not

quite joined us yet. I'm still so we're recording this really early, like almost two weeks early, which we always

talk about. Like normally, you know, we always release on Thursdays. Normally we record that same

week on like Monday or even Tuesday. Right. And so our episodes are typically not recorded all

that far in advance.

But when life gets busy, we do batch them a little bit more.

When you're listening to this, you know, these time frame statements will be out of date. But I am still a little bit in COVID recovery.

I had COVID.

I ended up testing positive for COVID for like 12 days.

It was really pretty tough.

I did not enjoy it.

You're out of 10.

I have a little bit of asthma.

And for those of you who don't know a fun fact about me is that I was born pretty

prematurely.

I was born at like 30 weeks or something and lived the first month of my life in an incubator. So did I. I think that's pretty common for twins. It's really common for twins. Actually, my mom had gone into labor at like 23 or 24 weeks and they, I'm going to tell this for a story. I think I've told it before. They sewed her cervix shut. And then when she actually, And then finally at like 30 weeks, my water broke. So I'm a twin. I'm a twin brother, fraternal twins, two sacks. Right. My water broke. So they're like, well, this is this is rolling. And so they removed the stitches, but they missed one. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. You should have put a warning on that one. Should have put a warning on this one. So she was in labor with a stitch in her cervix and she was like, something is wrong.

And they're like, it's supposed to hurt because medical professionals, gaslight, women.

She was like, you will look again.
