Noticed my sourdough starter hit 100 feedings today

I've been keeping a little journal of my starter feedings since I started it back in January, and I checked it this morning out of curiosity. Turns out today was exactly the 100th time I've fed it. I never thought I'd hit that number, honestly. It kinda hit me how much routine goes into keeping a starter alive, especially when you're working with just flour and water. Has anyone else tracked how many times they've fed theirs?

Dude, wait, has your starter ever gone full science experiment on you? My buddy kept his alive for like two years and then one day it just grew this weird pink fuzz out of nowhere, had to start all over.

And then I caught my cat drinking out of my sourdough jar once, talk about a setback.

Pink fuzz means your buddy's starter got infected with something nasty.
