That I mean, it wasn't my theory. We heard from a listener this week who is like, Hey, has Matt ever been tested for ADHD or dyslexia. And I asked, Matt, and I was just like, look, I'm not saying you're you have ADHD or dyslexia. You have there are some from what I know of ADHD and dyslexia. You have some characteristics of it, but that doesn't mean that you have it.

I think it was just because last week you tripped over so many words. So tired. So that probably made some people think. Well, listen, it wasn't a great week for me in my readings, but it is a great week to do a podcast.

And happy birthday. Happy birthday to you too, honey. No, it wasn't my birthday, but it was your birthday. It was yesterday. Yeah, 34 terrible years old. We have yet to go back to the doctor to take a gander at your uterine.

I only have one uterine. For now, who knows what's happening in there? I'm going back on Tuesday.

Yes, Tuesday, we have an appointment at 10 a.m. It should be very exciting. Dr. Beck's going to take a gander. See what's doing.

And tomorrow we take boat at the new vet tomorrow. Dory takes boat at the new vet at 8 30 in the morning figured I wouldn't go because I probably have to leave.

And I said, you know what? Let me make my bones about being late for work by actually going with my wife to our doctor appointment.

Okay. Bo can handle the vet with you.
