inHit 500 consecutive days of tracking my water intake and I'm honestly weirded out by what I noticed
Man that is a serious streak, respect for sticking with it. @fiona130 I get what you're saying about it being a lot of effort but some of us need that push to even remember to drink water in the first place. I started tracking mine after I got a kidney stone last year and it changed everything for me. The weird part was how my skin cleared up and my headaches just stopped happening. What did you notice that felt so off?

inJust hit 1,000 bottom bracket replacements and it made me think about the job
I get that, but it's more about people just not wanting to fix things.

inHonestly, I thought those overnight bus rides were just a cheap way to get wrecked
My first Flixbus trip was a 12 hour haul from Amsterdam to Paris and I was fully prepared for misery. I used to avoid buses at all costs, thinking they were just cramped and awful. But having my own pillow, a good playlist, and watching the countryside roll by completely changed my mind. Now I actually look for those overnight routes to save on a hotel night too.

inGot a vintage Leica M3 in with a shutter that wouldn't fire...
My friend had the same thing happen last month. He bought a used lens and the seller swore it was clean, but every photo had this weird haze. Turned out to be fungus growing inside the glass, @ellis.jennifer. It wasn't the camera body at all. He had to get the whole lens cleaned professionally. It was a huge pain and cost him extra money. Always check the lens first.

inA client's comment about hoof balance made me rethink my whole approach
Honestly why overcomplicate it with tracking every tiny detail? Sometimes a horse just moves different on any given day. Could that "tipping" have been from the ground being softer or the horse feeling fresh? I've seen people chase perfect balance notes for months and miss the actual horse standing right in front of them. Maybe the trainer's comment was just a lucky guess and you're reading too much into a 2mm change.
