Curiosity: The Key To A Lifetime Of Discovery
At least, that's what I hope the cats will think.
I've made the decision to allow Norman's brother to come live with me, in hopes that it will flush Norman out and make him less of a spaz. I've decided to call him Oscar. Supposedly he's a little more social and outgoing than his brother-not that that is saying much. So as I sit here typing, listening to a Stellars Jay making a fuss outside, I utter a silent prayer that I will have two happy cats instead of one cranky one. I'm a little nervous that something will go disastrously wrong, but we'll see. I'm trying to avoid pinning too many hopes on them, but after going for so long with no pets, it's hard. I just want to kiss them and spoil them so much. Oh well, at least it's October, Halloween is just around the corner and the hot weather has finally given up the ghost, no pun intended. The house is clean, I've gotten almost all my Fall chores list done, I've got a good dinner waiting for me on Friday night and some good movies coming from Netflix. It also looks like rain on Friday, so if I'm lucky Oscar will have vacated the fire pit and I can go down there and enjoy an evening fire. Who knows, maybe they will both be comfortable enough to show their faces. Sigh.
All this worry-this is why I could never be a real parent.
