Weight Loss and Exercise Thread
Mine has consistently been sub 300 for a year now at 52. Interestingly I don’t feel like I have the normal symptoms of low T, still gaining muscle and stuff but overall it seems like I do have to work harder at it. That said , I start TRT this week. We’ll see how it goes and if I feel any benefits.

Surly kids who can't get into UT
Honestly, it’s my daughter’s second choice behind SRD if that falls through. It’s leaps better than the prison house that is Jester. Allegedly Durin house up north is similar. She wasn’t impressed with the rest after doing the north and south housing tours.

Surly kids applying / attending UT
The odds of being able to escape CoLA are about the same as me waking up next to Sydney Sweeney. Not saying it can’t happen but….

Surly kids who can't get into UT
Several kids from my daughter’s school seem to be heading to the other UT. Popular choice it seems. Also I’m seeing a lot of auto-admit’s are getting CAP’d too.

Surly kids applying / attending UT
Wwhy I couldn’t find this thread before I don’t know. My daughter applied “ to make me happy” but had her eyes set on a couple out of state schools. Didn’t think she’d get in. Anyhoo, got notified back in January of her acceptance into Moody. Needless to say sanity prevailed and she accepted. She’s all in now. Can’t wait for the next 4 years 🤘. Next up, hopefully clearing the SRD waitlist.

Do the CAP offers restrict your path once getting back to Austin? Like hey I know you wanted to go Business but welcome to the college of liberal arts? Just wondering, a friend of ours got CAP yesterday. Friend of my daughter got in with a 1250 SAT yesterday and others with much higher got CAP or outright denied. Just relieved my daughter got into Moody back in Jan.

Your cat is awesome. Damn straight
I just want to point out that this little fucker decided to, at 9:00 last night, bring a live rat inside through the dog door, and drop it under our kitchen table. It then proceeds to run under the couch. I have to corral two of our dogs in our bedroom, where Mrs higgybaby (no pics) is now screaming on top of the bed. I go back to the living room and push the couch back on its back and the rat runs under the other couch. At this point I’m realizing I have no plan on how to catch this little fucker. So I grab an oven mitt (because getting bit by a rat is not on my todo list) and start hunting. I flip over the other couch and it takes off again , the cat still in chase mode. It tries to run up the media cabinet but can’t get a grip so it runs under the dog bed, where my 14 year old border collie is chilling and hasn’t yet realized there’s a rodent living rent free under his bed. I move the dog bed and swoop in with my now oven mitt covered hand and snag it by the tail. It’s making loud rat noises, followed in turn by more protest noises from the Mrs in the other room. At this point, I have a live rat in my hand with no actual plan so I did what anybody else would do in my situation. I walk out to the front walkway give it a couple of momentum swings above my head and throw it across the street into my neighbor’s yard. Hoping now it’s injured or disoriented enough some bobcat gets it. I assume the oven mitt goes in the trash now. But other than that, she’s a great cat.

Yes: Pools are worth it....
Been trying to fire up the hot tub this weekend, but the heater shuts after about 10 minutes. No code just a service heater light. Pentair master temp. I’m going on the assumption of a bad pressure switch unless y’all have different ideas?
