talk about annoying.. there is a website for zero ads.. a pop up blocker.. when you close the page. a pop up pops up

you are now reading a blog of a 31 yr old college student. Public Speaking, and Spreadsheets.900$+ ugh.. public speaking has three books (one optional which is 8$) the other two are ~40$ each.. and spreadsheets cost ~50$.. Ugh. I have about 30 credits left till my degree..

I also haven't mentioned I had a phone interview with a start up internet company. they are currently running, and are looking for their third round of funding.. Sounds like a great product, if they can get it off the ground there will be some really rich people there. The hours are 12-8 (YUCK) but the money is 35k a year, with stock options, health insurance (fully paid for me) 401k and stock option. (401k?? woh.. got to love progressive people).. but then again on the bad side, it involves my going back to work.. (YUCK) But she's currently not hiring, so Im not going to worry about it till she actually offers me a job.. or even a real interview (a few weeks from now)

Jack and I had some wonderful cuddle time this morning.. he fell asleep on my chest for about an hour after I worked out.. Emerald is having some issues.. She just walked over me and let me pat her.. down her spine, on both sides, she had bumps.. they felt like someone had stuck cold capsules under her skin perpendicular to her spine.. there were six or seven on each side She doesn't mind if I touch them, so I massaged them for a while, and they mostly went away.. but it does still bother me. she had some before when she was at the vet, and then they went away, so the vet said not to be worried.. but I have no idea what it is.

today when I was out I saw one of those bumperstickers that were popular after 9/11.. the whole 'these colors wont run" in front of an american flag. the bumpersticker was all faded. I couldn't help but think that they wouldn't run but they would fade. Got me thinking about pearl harbor. How the atmousphere then was similar to what it is now.. but now how the american culture can't get enough of the japanese culture.. anime and sushi and what not.. there is still a great hatred toward the people in general by some, but as a whole, the incident has faded into history..

Yesterday the frustration level was that of a two yr old.. I couldn't do anything right, and nothing went right. it wasn't fun. But at least Im all caught up on my todo list except to register for a class.. which Im going to do right now.

Yesterday I saw a movie called it takes two.. regarding a woman (vivica fox) who was playing games to teach her boyfriend. It was a pretty lame movie, but one thing that really struck me that despite having things going wrong in her life, she didn't have a single emotional outburst, was in complete control though out the whole thing, always well poised.. Its amazing how inferior that made me feel with out even knowing it.. (although the rotten day didn't help).. then I watched my soap this morning (I record them to exercise to, cause its 40 minutes of show to distract me five times a week... that's always different) it showed all these "flawed" charaters.. they were real as opposed to the barbie doll type image of yesterdays movie. Felt better about myself almost immediately.. which gave me the courage to call the school to go register for a class.. which Im going to do now.. wish me luck.. cause frankly, while I want to to do it, I truely do not.

Jack and Ollie are playing chase in the house. Its really adorable.. I wish I could get pictures of it, but they move so fast.. and usually when they are standing together "duking" it out, the camera is no where near me..

Ok ok.. Im going.. geeze.. get your foot off my butt would you?

you'll be so proud of me..I finally "shaved" my legs.. (nair).. I am also caught up on all of my exercise..

Ive been having a one crappy day though, so Im just gonna go now..

*hugs*

I went into the kitten room last night and was playing with domino, when I saw yet another flea run across her tummy. I killed it, and inspected her, and found another, so I figured they should all get baths. yes.. at 10:30 at night.. it wasn't fun.. but it was necessary. I got seven fleas off domino in total, and at least one off all of the others. My kittes have been treated with revolution.. so hopefully.. this will be the last of them.. yea.. right..

This morning I went in, and sat on the couch. My feet were hurting a little, so I laid down and put my feet up.. well this was irresistable.. and before I knew it, I had dom and charlie sleeping on me, and jenna in my hair.. and rocky looking down at me from the pillow.. Everyone made it over to walk over me at some point.. but I was happiest about charlie. I felt horrible when I had to go pee so badly I had to get up and move him.

My father called at around 1. Having yet another computer problem.. started out with floppy in the a drive.. he as amazed I knew there was one in there.. *rolls eyes*.. but it ended up wanting to start in safe mode to do a defrag, and he couldn't figure it out so I had to go down.. Did I tell you of the time my mother wanted to edit a picture she got in an email, so she saved the whole email to her desktop and then was confused as to why she couldn't open it with her graphics program.. I so really need to start charging them.. lol. But at least it got me out of the house and got me to the gym. Now I have to get up and exercise

Ugh.. Im starting to crave a subway sandwich. Exercise first.. shower second.. dinner third.. (well maybe I should take care of that stink bomb my kitty left me first.. )

Just got home from the fair.. that was fun.not as exciting as I remember from my youth.. but still.. fairs are fun. Seeing the different veggies, and stuff displayed for show and contests.. some of them really didn't keep well, like the parsnips and the corn. The fair started yesterday I believe, and already they were all dried out. There were prizes for quilts, and sweaters, and cross stiching, and pies, and cookies, and a metal arm sculpture thingie won a prize. There were drawings and photos and paintings that were all judged too. Lots of fun to look all that over. We went to the animal areas.. and saw cows and sheep and goats. One little girl was baahing at the sheep, and they were bleeting back.. there were some llama's for sale too. Llamas are cool looking. We found some really cool stone carvings at one booth. Stone like tigers eye in different shades were carved into animal shapes. I got a sleeping cat in yellow, and a turtle in purple. There was a really cool orange gold fish too. I also got a turtle pendant.. its about the size of a quarter and on a black rope "chain". I also bought a little hand made sign that says "cause Im the cat, that's why" with a black and white kitty head at the top of it (painted) it made me giggle. There was a bigger sign there that wasn't nearly as well done that said "Do not let the cats out, no matter what they say" that made me chuckle.. also "Families are like fudge, mostly sweet, and some with nuts" <- paraphrased. There was a guy there selling old currency. He had some bunny nickles (from canada) and a cool silver coin with a dragon on it that looked like this
OT.. man I love ebay.. how cool is this coin?

I wasted $0.75 on the quarter game I love so much. Have you seen them.. you put the quarter in, it drops down, and hopefully lands in such a way as to push some quarters off the ledge and into your pot... I love this game.. I wonder if its on the net anywhere.. I've lost quite a few dollars on those games before.. used to stop on the way home from MA. there is a tourist trap beach there that had a ton of them. I loved them till they turned to tokens, and the only thing you could get out of playing would be cheepo stuffed animals.

It started spitting a bit while we were there (rain) but not bad. On our way out we bought some fair food.. some funnel cake.. Some kettle pop corn, and some cotton candy (man its been YEARS since I had some of that) On the way home we saw an old guy sitting on the side of the road selling corn, so we bought some.. that's gonna be dinner to make up for all the empty calories.. lol

also knocked off that todo list, is the nails.. they are nice and polish free again.. and the rescuing of the Kau.. man the mall was packed.. almost more so than it was at Christmas.. lets see.. what's left.. exercise and kitty cuddlin.. and its only 5pm.. I think I can handle that.. :)

have I mentioned that I am the crazy cat lady? fourteen now. My three. one set of six, now a mom and her four.. They will be named robert, frank, otis, and jane. Yes.. Im weird.. you did see the name of this blog didn't ya :)

OT... Someone I know on line is friends with someone on line who i know doesn't like me. I don't harbor any ill feelings to this second person... but the fact that the friendship exsists kinda bothers me because of how I have been treated in the past, and because of other instances like this that have come to smack me in the face. I talk about this not to come to come to you and ask for an opinion, but because this is my journal and I am writing down things that are in my head.

I have been up since 6:30am.. its now 8:30. the cats (mine) are getting pretty annoyed I haven't fed them yet.. Im kinda tired, Im considering going back to bed for a while. I do need to look in on the other kitties, exercise, go to the acton fair, and go to the mall today. that and take this nailpolish off my nails. I don't know why I keep painting them. it only ever looks good for like a day.. and my nails are actually quite pretty with out it.. I should also shave. Yup.. still haven't done that. Oh the joys of having virtually invisible leg hair.. speaking of legs, those insect bites I got two weeks ago.... you can still see them..

and speaking of insects.. Why can't I get rid of the flea infestation we've seem to got going on over here?? I saw one run across domino's tummy last night. Couldn't get it off him cause it kept hiding in her fur. finally nabbed it with a q-tip dipped in flea bath.. killed it instantly. it was cool. I hate fleas. I was able to get some revolution for the resident cats.. I bathed jack and em, but I was afraid to bathe ollie.. he's got such an attitude lately. I asked the shelter and they gave me some. So today... is revolution day!! lol..

Im letting the kittens run around in the kitten room. I went in there a little bit ago to check up on them.. they all came up to me .. it was so sweet..

Today's Cancer Horoscope
June 22 - July 22

You definitely have a unique way of thinking, and it's only natural to want to share your ideas with the people around you. The problem is, what seems perfectly logical to you may be misunderstood by other people, even those who are closest to you. Don't worry about what others think of you. Use your different way of thinking to your advantage. Put your thoughts in writing. Write poetry or song lyrics. Start a journal -- the possibilities are endless.

we talked about the whole have a life thing.. its mostly cause he's projecting.. making assumptions and deciding they are fact. I used to get upset with him for being late cause he would never EVER call to tell me he was running late. I don't care if he is.. but if he's five hours late home from somewhere, Im starting to worry he's dead on the side of the road. He's got a cell phone.. its no skin off his nose to just give me a jingle and let me know.. I never get upset with him if he lets me know what's going on.. sigh

the furnace is still on the fritz, and I suppose it will be till I call my father and get him over here to take a look at it. The house is mostly clean, I should call him.

sigh. is it too much for me to expect for him to come home with a little giftie.. I suppose it is..


oh a completely different note, Doug and Sarah came over after the company picnic. (hubby's work) Doug, in addition to working for the same place as the hubster, is also married to his niece.. no.. not married to his own niece.. but my hubbies.. :P so we see a bit of them. We keep telling them to come over and go for a swim, but they never do, but it was hot at the picnic, and we asked them like three times... so they brought over a pizza, we had non alcoholic fuzzy navels (YUM!) and then went for a swim. It isn't that big of a pool, so we played keep the ball in the air for a while.. that was a riot. When I got out to get the balls that fell out of the pool, it started raining, I was a little worried cause there was thunder while we were eating, but it was just a light rain, which was nice. We then watched the baby video.. Sarah's pregnant.. she calls him baby skeletor, cause he wouldn't turn his face for a profile shot, so you kept seeing his skull.. also a few shots of his spine,and a few of his feet. At one point it really looked like he was giving us the finger, it was funny.

speaking of skelator.. (Man I should learn how to spell that) have you seen the new He-Man cartoons on cartoon network? The guy doing skellator's voice is all wrong.. reminded me way too much of Mum-ra..

I have a jack sleeping on my leg right now. and I am in desprate need of a shower... desprate need.. Im starting to offend myself.. and jack is in need of a bath in a bad way himself.. smells funny and has flea dander on him.. (I so need to get some advantage) but he's so cute sleeping there, I don't want to disturb him..

saturday night did not go well at all. the hubby gets so f-ing defensive when I get upset that he no longer cares what I feel, only that Im yelling at him. He had the f-ing nerve to tell me that in order to "comply" with what I want, he can't have a life. Oh man I can't begin to tell you how wrong that whole (*&(^&*%^()*)*(_ statement is. 99.9% of the time when he wants to go off with out me and do something I let him. The other .01% of the time its cause there is something going on and he's needed. and what the fuck is wrong with his "life" with me anyway?

He keeps saying he doesn't want to hurt me.. but he keeps doing it.. and when he does, apparently Im just supposed to take it and not call him on it.. how the fuck is he supposed to learn what hurts me if I don't tell him. He ranted that I didn't know what I wanted him to do to make the situation right.. (cause he didn't get the call till after he got home.. claimed he didn't get a signal out in the town he was staying in that night, then that he left it out in the car.. but yet was able to call me twice on a nice scratchy connection to tell me he was running late.. then that he was going out to dinner with the group.. which btw, I didn't answer.. cause I didn't want to yell at him on the phone) but come on dude.. you get a frantic call from your wife at two friggen o-clock in the morning. You don't get the message till the next day at 10 pm.. do you drive cassuallly home then gather all your things out of the car and saunter in the door like nothing happened? and not say anything till she starts ranting?

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He also had the nerve to say that I dropped some "f-bombs" during my message.. I cut him off.. ya fucking right I swore.. I was upset.. You knew when you married me that I swore.. Yes.. Im trying to cut back.. but damn it.. When Im pissed, I swear. LIVE WITH IT!!

Things were pretty much settled when we went to bed.. but I woke up and that i can't have a life statement came to slap me in the face.

Sigh.

Sigh.. I am a mess..

Friday night I stayed up late chatting with a friend of mine, and didn't get to sleep till after 3am.. I was awoken up at 6am, I tried to go back to sleep and woke up at 8:30ish.. then tried to go back to bed, but couldn't get to sleep due to some todo things that were looming over me, so I got up to do them, and never got back to bed. I was doing ok, so I wasn't all that worried about it. Last night I had a massive headache, and despite taking some night time asprin, I didn't get to sleep before midnight. at 2am some alarm went off in the house. I still don't know what it was. I think it might have been the carbon monoxide detector... but Im not sure. For those of you who don't know, im fairly blind with out my glasses.. astigmatism and far sightedness.. and of course at 2am Im asleep and not wearing them - so everything looks horribly out of focus, and now there is an annoying high pitched screaching going on, my first thought is to get it to stop. stupidly I thought it was the alarm clock.. went there first. but even as my hands reached it I knew it wasn't that. I threw open the bedroom door, and reached for the carbon monoxide detector.. I don't know if I pushed the silence button or not... but the screaching stopped. So Im thinking that's it, and I went back into the bedroom and got my glasses... by this time a little rational thought is entering my head.. and I was trying to remember if I actually pushed the button. The smoke detectors are all wired into the house, so I then start walking around the house sniffing to see if I can detect smoke.. wondering if the house is on fire or if one of them had an issue (its happened before) so Im walking around the house half naked at 2am looking for smoke. I know this isn't good, so I go put on pants, and realize that my hands are shaking badly. So now Im tired, hot, pissed and totally unnerved, standing in the living room and the damn thing goes off again, but only long enough to make my heart race and my hands shake more.. I still have no idea what it was. The second time sounded like it came from the kitchen.. I look at the carbon monoxide detector again, and nothing is lit up (as in the move me to fresh air button)

So I call the husband who is out on a bible retreat to climb a mountian.. and of course he doesn't answer his phone cause he's a fucking jerk... ok ok.. so he sleeps heavy .. So I call again.. and again.. must have left the phone in the car. I call again and leave a raving lunatic message.. (cause its 2am, and while I might have some rational thought, I didn't have much) I eventually assume the house is not burning down, and that the bedroom must be carbon monxoide free cause the alarm stopped once I opened that door.. so I go back to bed,,, after throwing the detector out the door and opening some windows in the house...

then at four am ollie climbed up on me.. then at six am jack did.. and at 9 am .. emmy did. at 11 the phone rang... I give up.. Im never getting more than two hours of sleep again.

and of course now its noon time and he's not home... lets just say things aren't going to be pretty

I just found out an old friend of mine.. (jr high) ... just lost her father. I saw his obit, and wondered at the last name cause its not common. and yup.. it was him. I feel for her. Makes me wonder if I should send her a card or something.. but its been years since we talked. Drifted apart during highschool.. I think I'll do a search and see if I can find an email addy for her.. send her a note that way..

Ok.. Ive had it.. Im on a mac.. and every time I resize the window it
looses my post.. this is the THIRD time Ive had to start over.. see this
last time I didn't think moving the mid bar down would do it.. but it
did.. grrrr... ok.. fine.. post starting yet again..

as you see.. Im now on a mac. Blogger looks weird on a mac.. nothing I
can't get used to, as long as i stop resizing the window apparently..
(grrrr) Im currently at the animal shelter. I had to bring my kittens
in for a check up, and the woman I normally help out isn't in, and since
it is such a slow day, I thought Id keif a little bandwith and post.

the ride in today was fun.. NOT. I hate living in a tourist trap in the
middle of summer. Sometimes I swear I have a sign on my car that says
'cut in front of me PLEASE.. i love slamming on my breaks". I had the
kittens so it was even more fun of a ride. Actually they were really
pretty good.. not like my own cats in the car... they scream and
scream.. the little ones just sat there and staired at me asking me with
their eyes. they really are too cute.

I also had to drive on the highway in a major construction zone.. they
are making the two lane highway three.. thankgoodnes.. friday afternoons
I NEVER drive on the highway.. even if Im on the highway.. cause its a
park way cause there is always some idiot who thinks he can get there
faster if he plows into the guy infront of him.. it never works.

the heat is here again today, and apparently through the weekend. and
doesn't that just bust my buttons.

ooooh.. I just took a call from the woman who adopted maggie :) She's
doing very well and is in a house with two dogs.. and she's having a
blast. *warm fuzzies*

Well.. I suppose I should go and see how my kittens are doing and if I
can actually be of help here somewhere..

why is it that there is always a day when I can't get a fricken thing done to save my life? I was so sure today was the day when I called unemployment, and the college, and worked out, and was a 'good girl' but noooo it was log day.. well.. I did a little socializing with the kittens.. but I don't think that counts cause all I did was sit in there and sweat and watch tv (no A/C in there)

*looks at clock* ok ok.. so the day isn't quite over yet.. I could probably fit in one call.. *wanders off to find phone*
Update: Unemployement settled.. college was closed.. missed them by 6 minutes.. now.. if I could just convince myself to exercise.. yea.. right

Once you start looking for it.. inspiration is everywhere

whooo hoo!! I found my digital camera. Where was it you ask? In the exact spot I thought it would be, and had asked the hubby to look three or four times.. all I did was remove the cushion to my computer chair, and poof, there it was.. remind me to never trust him when he says he looked somewhere.. *rolls eyes* I think the flash will scare the kittens, so Im not going to take pictures till tomorrow... and then they are due for a trek to the shelter thursday.. that's not going to go over well I can tell already.

It was hot here today.. Obnoxiously so. We are both hungry, but its masked by the heat, so it will probably be 9 before we eat.. *sigh* but I think we are going to have chinese food.. don't have to cook that way. there is a green bean with ginger sauce and chicken that I really like at one place.. but I don't really care.. I went out to lunch today.. Brian from the shelter treated for helping with the mailing. Went to cheri's.. had a falafal.. it was good Nancy had a eggplant sandwich that looked really good too.

Ive been very good on my exercise lately.. even looking forward to going to the gym tomorrow. I didn't go till late on monday.. was so hot and sweaty when I got home that I just came home and jumped in the pool.. Ok.. so I took off my socks and shoes and pants first.. eventually ending up in just my undies.. got to love living in a rural area.. skinnydipping is so much fun!

the bites on my legs are starting to turn red, and look very much like Ive been mauled. I often find myself absentmindlingly scratching them.

goodness.. I hate spam

it's elvis week.. *ugh*.. personally, I think enough all ready.. I don't mind a day to commemerate his death.. but all week, on like every news show ever.. come on. On other prestly news.. Lisa Marie married Nicolas Cage.. I have no comment on that one.. on one hand I want to say YUCK.. on the other I want to say I hope they will be happy.. So I guess I technically have two comments on that. Well.. if you want to get percise.. I have another.. there is always the thought this is another publicity stunt... boy I hope not.. (for those of you who don't know.. I have a thing for cage) and in Prestley news.. jason is in the hospital after crashing his race car into a wall during practice.

On a personal front, I have things I need to do, but I keep avoiding putting them on my todo list cause I don't actually want to do them.. Im so silly. Its also going to be like 100 degrees here today.. not a good thing.

and so you think you don't like the goverment.. check out this story

lets see.. what's new with me.. 1/2 the new kittens made it up on to the couch in the kitten room and asked to be patted.. Puff was looking like she wanted to, so I pulled her up and patted her for a while, but then there was a noise, and that was the end of that. Killer is doing better.. but still scared, same with george.. I really should come up with some names for these guys.. but I think I'll wait till after they are tested and have a clean bill of health.

*notices I didn't tell you why the black kitty is named killer*

I was in the kitten room the other day picking up the kittens and patting them then snuggling them and putting them down. The little black kitten did very well on the picking up and the cuddling and the patting, but when I sneeked in for a kiss on his neck, he decided that was just wrong and lashed out at me, and made contact with the top of my nose.. (not the tip.. the top.. between my eyebrows) I have to say I was quite glad I wear glasses, cause I know he swipped on them first. He drew some blood.. not a lot.. but enough. I don't think i even have a mark on me any more.. Today I went in there to read the paper while they ran around. I force fed them some KMR, and killer knocked over the dish it was in soaking himself and pony.. .. it was really cute despite what a pain it was. Then killer decided he needed a bath, so he jumped in the water dish.. He was a mess before I was able to get him out of the cage for his feeding..

Went to the shelter friday morning to help out with the mailing. Eventually everyone left and it was just me and brian working. Steve the shelter director came in and asked how it was going.. brian said good even though everyone left him.. it was funny.. I pretended to throw something at him. he tried to make a save saying he meant staff.. but it was a good mood lightener.. doing bulk mailings really is no fun. Went to the gym after.. got a good work out. its good to be working with weights again.. I don't know why I put it off for so long. I sat in the hot tub for a bit.. but it was 1/3 chlorine.. so it wasn't much fun. Came home to sign the papers on the sunroom.. for some reason they decided to do a second mortgage at 9.5% Im thinking they probably could have done a lot better than that, but Im not willing to go out and do the research.. (I mean come on... my car loan is 9%) and the hubby isn't willing to make waves.. (he never is) I probably should do something.. cause every time I think about it I get upset..

I do really need to get off my duff and contact the college and see what's avalible.. I should also probably contact unemployement too.. sigh.. why is it somethings Im really good at making a stand over, and somethings I just really would rather not deal with?

do you know that there is a movement to make it legal for those who own movies to search the net for people with file sharing software and allow them to hack into your computer to see if you have any illegal movies. Do you know how wrong that is?? its like allowing blockbuster to break into your house to see if you have any copied videos.. yea.. I don't think so!! Im telling you.. personal freedoms are becoming rarer and rarer.. and while most of them I don't mind not having, it is a very slippery slope

went to a family function on wednesday.. for some reason my SIL decided to throw her annual lake side party on a wednesday.. I have to say if I was still working Id be pissed.. another SIL was in town, and I saw her two year old daughter for the first time.. she reminded me of a kitten I have.. that's never happened before.. seeing a person in a cat or a cat in a person.. she's two, and chubby, and had blond hair in pigtails and big blue eyes that had that scared look cause there were soooo many people there (about 30) that she didn't know. Reminded me of NuPuff big time.

Jack had his check up today. He's doing well.. the heart murmur is still there. There is a bit of controversy over his rabies vaccination.. apparently according to my vet it is against the law to give it before 12 weeks, and the certificate said he was 10 weeks. But according to the vet, looking at jack, the signs all say he's 16 weeks now, which would have made him 12 weeks at the time..

I lost another hamster.. sigh.. the last one doesnt look very good either.. I wonder if there is something in the house.. I guess I won't be getting any more..

my new set of kittens is (or should that be are) doing well. (the set is, but the kittens are.. ugh.. sometimes I hate the english language) they eat heartily.. they still aren't interested in dry food, but Im sure that will change soon enough. I have a few shots left on my regular camera.. I should go take them and send them into be processed along with the other rolls I have waiting. and get them to put them on line so I can have some half decent digital photos of them.. Im actually getting angry at the fact that I can't find my digital..

tomorrow is friday.. its gym day.. and also there is a mailing at the shelter and they have asked for help.. if I have the gumption, im going to go..

my alergies are acting up. I spent most of the day in bed yesterday.. mostly cause I didn't sleep well the night before due to not being able to breath right. same thing happened last night. also this morning I am extremely stiff. in areas I worked out on monday, but in others as well.. sigh.

ya know.. Im kinda grumpy.. Im just going to end this here.. Maybe I'll blog later..

besides.. I need to spend some good quality time with Em.. who just sat on my arms.. thanks em

btw.. www.geocitites.com/myfosterkittens/six they are a little fuzzy.. still don't know where the digital cam is..

EM! ugh.. bye

my cats walk all over me and I love it. Makes for a really cheep massage.. :)

you will be so proud of me.. I went to the gym today and lifted weights.. I will be buff girl.. (yea .. right.. in my dreams maybe) It was surprisingly busy at 10:30 am (don't people normally have a life?? I mean I know I don't.. but then Im weird) I figured it would be dead after the morning rush.. but nope.. but at least every one was really nice.. which I was kinda surprised at.

Hubby was supposed to take my car out and put gas in it this morning cause Im broke and I had an appointment this morning and no gas. But he forgot.. at least I made it to my appointment, then to the gym. I was driving to his office and my little miles left thingy said I could drive zero miles on the gas in my tank. I paniced cause I was on the highway at the time. I figured since I had two ticks left on my gas gauge it was slightly more accurate than the digital read out that makes a guestimate of how much gas is in my tank. I had about four miles to go when it went to zero. I was praying the whole time and recalling the loaves and fish story from the Bible.. and.. I made it. I doubt it was cause of my praying.. but hey.. Im not going to discount it.. (wait.. isn't doubting discounting? ok.. Im not going to rule it out completely. Miracles happen every day.. and I could have had one.. so there :p)

Em is still having problems digesting the diet/senior food we bought her to help her loose weight. So.. I went out and bought her some wet food. Fiber content is only 1.5 % if she's got a problem with this stuff, we are going back to the 5$ a pound food.. (might as well feed her steak at this price.. ugh) but I love her.. she's worth it.

I want to get Ollie one of those cat trees. Talked to the hubby about it.. and he said it could go in the new sun room. I think that would be soo cool. but they are a couple of hundred dollars.. so I doubt we'll do it.

The kittens are doing well. Still have two who are anti social. I need to go spend some quality time with them. THe little gray and white one tried to back up away from me, and ran into the back of the cage, so she started climbing the walls.. backwards.. it was so cute.. but heartbreaking at the same time Im sure you know what I mean.

Well.. Im going to go do a little cleaning and surprise the hubby when he gets home.. (cause I'll be doing some of his chores.. not that he deserves it after forgetting to put gas in my car.. but hey.. Im a sweet girl.. no.. really.. I am.. )

i went to the shelter today to get some more KMR for the kittens.. and five of the six of my last set was still there. Maggie went home first.. which is surprising, since she had the worst attitude.mari and dusty went home while I was there. I had to leave bob, bear and mercury there.. THAT was hard. I know they'll get good homes though Everyone really liked bob, they just liked someone else better.. he seemed to always be second..

I have the xfiles episode with burt renolds on it.. man this is lame

Its hot out. I got out of going to the hubby's family event. Em woke me up at 4am. So I was a little grumpy to begin with .. then his sister called and wanted a ride to it. so I told him to tell everyone I wasn't feeling well.. which is true.. But Im glad Im not going. I don't like my own family events.. and the only family I know of my hubbys belong to his immediate family.. (he's 8 of 9) I have a short todo list.. but with this heat, I don' t know how far Im going to get on it. Nap is last.. but heck... I might just skip to the end

I also lost my digital camera. It was "misplaced" for the longest time.. now its out and out lost. Ive looked everywhere.. Im scared it accidently got thrown out.. and Im pissed that it might have been accidently thrown out..

I want one of those new stake bowls from taco bell.

jack bit me this morning. He didn't mean to.. but his tooth penitrated my thumb pretty deeply. it hurts. The splinter is still stuck in my big toe.

ugh.. its getting late.. *looks at todo list again* well I suppose I could do that one.. and that one..

yesterday I got six more kittens.. four to five weeks old.. and wouldn't you know it.. I can't find my digital camera.
One is VERY into eating.. and wants regular cat food.. one just really loves the KMR.. the others will eat it.. but they aren't all into it.
they are litter trained thankgoodness..
one of them looks like a clone of em, thinking of calling her emily.. I think Im going to wait a few days before naming them. Doesn't really matter anyway.. I rarely call them by their names.. always some cutsie term of endearment..

Its friday.. I have a few errands I need to run. I don't want to. ugh.. I should go back to work.. this not working thing is making me lazy.. :) but.. admit it.. your kinda jealous.. Im basically in my retirement faze of my life.. and at 30.. how awesome is that?
