 well, i'm a long way from being fluent in portuguese as well and i've got a drinking problem that i have to address and right now a problem with my teeth related to food sensitivities so i'm feeling like a bit of a tarder cat, hence the change in my pfp 
 I thought you just wanted to join the cat-dev leagues. Would need to be purple, tho. 
 Yea, I had a rather severe drinking issue for years after I  left the service. Then I knocked up my daughters mum and everything changed almost overnight. 🤷‍♂️

I understand. Alcoholism can make people do some truly loony things. Best of luck with that 👍🙏! For real. 
 yeah it gets extra complicated with food sensitivities cos the wine is not so bad but i had a couple of local madeira stout last night while hanging out with the most loony people in my neighbourhood playing dominoes and ... yeah... much easier to make a bad call... the malts and the pepper and the chilli and the carbs all have been slowly creeping back and then it's a sock in the jaw like this

my insides feel like hell, as well, and i think i overdid the sun-baking today, my skin feels hot everywhere 
 Spring is sunburn season.

I'm at an age where more than one glass of wine will leave me hungover for two days. 😅 My partying days are basically over. 
 Yea, mine as well. I really ain't upset about that, though. My partying days were truly bonkers. LOL! Just some cocky little shit who thought he was better and knew better than everyone. Joining the military only made it worse, for a time 😅. I really only drink once or twice on the weekends now. 🤷‍♂️ 
 I was never that wild because I married young, but even the little bit I did was enough. 😅 
 I was WILD! My old man and I got into plenty of arguments over my irresponsibility. I was a touch spoiled. Shouldn't be a shocker 🤷‍♂️. 

Yup, I'm a tad bit jelly that you married young 😅. How young? 
 We got engaged when I was 22 and married a year later and our son was born a year after that. 
 Lol. Same age my mum was when she married my pops. Also, the same age I was when I enlisted. Right after university.

 Well, I hope we're providing some distraction.
