► God, what a rough night and morning. I was jittery and exhausted all night but didn't finally start drifting off to sleep until around 5:30am, only to be awoken by a sudden bang at 6:00am. I spun over in bed and flicked my desk lap on to find Storm sitting atop of my night table, some items knocked over, including my previously full glass of ( Read more... )

► Overall I think I've handled having a cat pretty well, given my obsessive compulsive disorder. That said, I really could do without Stormy's occasionally kicking or dropping poop outside of his litter box.

► Stormy has been increasingly difficult this week, which has been hard for me to deal with. For the first two months I've had him the big issues have been him climbing window screens and climbing and perching up on top of bookcases and kitchen cabinets. Now it's suddenly shredding things ( Read more... )

► I think I'm finally inching towards a nervous breakdown. Yesterday I was feeling really good and chipper all day, until last night when my computer suddenly started going ape shit and I started getting hit with the full force of all my pent up worries and fears. Things have been brewing for awhile now and I'm starting to really feel it now. ( Read more... )

► I'm not dead. At least I don't think I am. Seriously, have you ever wondered "if I was dead would I know it?" But I digress ( Read more... )
