Hi! You have such a majestic beast! Wow. I love black cats and i always wanted one. But CDS seems to send me different colour ones.

Today was oddly satisfying. I had a lot of work and i was productive. Those days give me a lot of energy. I went to the gym. People were throwing their weights and the music was too loud. Luckily I had my earplugs with me, so i was able to workout without feeling too overwhelmed. I think deadlift is slowly becoming my favourite exercise. And yay weekend!
