Hi guys, welcome back to brunch with Desby. I'm your host Des, and I am now 27 fucking years old. Welcome.

Just kidding. We are still back on our ratchet shit. Are you shocked? Probably not. But I did in fact have a birthday this past week, which I've probably told you guys like 10 times.

Um, so sorry about that, but it's that Aries energy. Okay, like we have to just let everyone know, but I will say technically today as you're listening to this.

It is my birthday. It's 8 30 a.m. I've been up since 7 because Archie's kicking me every time I kind of wake up.

He thinks it's time to wake up. So it's currently 8 30. It's raining outside. It's literally so gray. I didn't even want to get out of bed. I'm like, what kind of fucking birthday is this already?

It's just supposed to be my favorite degrees. 73 sunny with fucking no clouds. That is my favorite green. I'm going to ask that on brunch with Desby Instagram this week.

What is your fate? If you had a perfect day, temperature, weather, what is that for you? Perfect day. Perfect day that you would want to live in forever.

Check the poll today. Anyway, so today is technically my birthday, but obviously you're listening to this lead. So I've quite a few things to do today.

It's funny, you know, work doesn't stop on your birthday once you get older, which is really sad. I feel like when we were younger, it was like, hey everyone, it's my birthday. I just want to let you know I'm not doing anything.

I'm not doing anything for anyone. And then you get older and you like got to go to work or, you know, you got to get on the same bus you do every day or drive the same route. And we're just like damn this.

This is aging. This is life. So I'm 27 years old, which why it also informed me this morning. That is officially my late twenties.

Is that real fucking life? I for some reason thought that late twenties was going to be 28 and 29 only.

And I just got the cue that I'm officially in my late twenties. So yeah, wow, if there's a if there's a better time to get my Botox redone.

It is immediately after this baby, all jokes, all jokes. But so thank you guys in advance for the love on my birthday. I've already received so many messages in like our discord chats, my Patreon chat, my six weeks to shreds chat, the Facebook group, my Instagram. I mean, I just I always I don't want to say, oh, my birthday makes me feel so loved because honestly, like you guys, my family, everyone, I feel so loved all the time. And especially in this past season of my life.

It's been so hard. I mean, genuinely the past two and a half years since the start of or since the end of 2019 have been the hardest years that I have ever gone through in my life.

And even 2018 and 2019 alone were a different type of battle, but it has just been a lot of like trying to run uphill. I always feel I have felt I should say so supported by you guys throughout the duration of time. And so I just really appreciate it, but it really does make you feel so special on your birthday seeing people reach out to you. And even people you haven't talked to in a long time, which I never even take as like a, oh, so now you reach out.

Like sometimes it, you know, life just happens to people. So it's nice to hear from like people I went to high school with or people that are just friends with my mom or whatever. It's like, hey, you know, we all know each other.

We all know that we're all alive. We all know each other. But it's nice to just sometimes reach out that little happy birthday. And I just think it's so nice. So it was a great week. And today I kind of have a variety episode for you guys. I did want to talk about, you know, the things that I've learned thus far in my 20s in general.

Now being in my late 20s. I wanted to do like maybe 10, tell me a secret. If I, if I feel vived with it, you guys know the drill. We don't, we don't have a drill here. That's really how it goes. You know the drill guys. There's no fucking drill. But I just kind of wanted to be a variety episode. Talk a little bit about my pregnancy update you guys on how that's been. I'm also officially 35 weeks pregnant. And obviously I could go in.

Obviously I could go into labor truly at any time, genuinely, especially with my past experience. But you start hitting that like 36, 37, like all of that, like weeks. And you just, you get, you're getting close, you know.

And it's just kind of like your body can take your body can take a little bit of a turn. So yeah, I'm just, I'm getting really close and we have the nursery done. We have

the like bedside crib setup. I have my three tiered cart setup. I have my diaper caddy setup. I'm getting my like postpartum recovery setup that's like I kind of will have almost like above my toilet.
