► My cat Stormy's feeding routine is as follows: a bit of dry food around 7:00am, 1 can of wet food around 4:00pm, and then another bit of dry food in the evening around 10:00pm. Dean was the one who fed Stormy the canned meal yesterday and the day before. Both times he barely touched it. I wasn't sure what to expect when I fed him today, ( Read more... )

► There was a bit of a surprise waiting for us when Dad drove me back to the apartment after shopping. My apartment building is at the end of a dead end avenue, and access was blocked off my several water department trucks blocking the street as workers had torn up the yard at the corner and were pumping water out of some huge pipe. Dad ended up ( Read more... )

► Today was a very stressful and exhausting day. Without getting too deep into the details, things with Dean kinda came to a bit of a head in regards to her missing so much work the past couple of months and a meeting scheduled for Thursday. There was some massive panicking and despair on her part. I made some phone calls, she talked to some ( Read more... )

► As I type this it's 26 degrees Celsius (roughly 80 degrees Fahrenheit), and a bit muggy. They're calling for thunderstorms but so far the day has been sunny, albeit partially cloudy. It's not an overly hot day, but it's the kind of day that's very warm and feels like being encased in a big, warm, fluffy blanket and it's making me want to sleep ( Read more... )

► My nerves are getting worse, worrying about having to finally go out on Thursday. My pulse has been racing all day, I've been panicky, and my vertigo seems to be back (although still relatively mild). I'll probably feel a hell of a lot better once I get through the outing and errands on Thursday, but getting there will be murder since I'm ( Read more... )

► Sigh, I guess my landlord completely forgot about my request for a rent receipt for 2011. Again. Guess I'll have to call, again, but I'm going to wait until tomorrow.

► I called my paternal grandmother (Nanny) to see how she was doing (she fell Friday and bruised her leg, my uncles are taking turns staying with her). While chatting I ( Read more... )

► The weekend may have started well, but it sucks now ( Read more... )

► As birthdays go, today could have been a lot worse. Dad dropped by for a bit with a chocolate cake (which was pretty good compared to most store bought cakes) and we (along with Dean) had a slice with tea. Afterward Dean and I watched a movie, and I ordered supper from the Greek restaurant up the street. They make great hamburgers so I had one ( Read more... )

► Now that was a waste of time. I went out with Dad this afternoon as planned, the final destination being the postal outlet where my package is supposed to be waiting for me. Turns out the package wasn't there, nor was it in the computer system. The two ladies made some phone calls but couldn't reach anyone. They suggested that whoever filled ( Read more... )

► Yesterday I did something I kinda regret. Late at night, while getting drowsy, I was looking up various random things on Ebay. Now to add some context, I've always been something of a tactile based person and love the feel of different textures, materials and clothes. When I was a child most blankets on beds had a trim of ribbon holded and ( Read more... )
