koi wa baby, aji wa baby~ koi wa miruku aji
It's been a while since Valentine's Day, but Will got me chocolate and flowers for the first time in our relationship. He made me a steak dinner and we went out to Warm Bodies that Friday. Pretty good day.
We've had a few date nights when we can since Thursday night, and we negotiated with Trav to take the morning part of his Saturday shift so we could have a morning together. It was well needed. I'm taking tomorrow morning off; Tuesdays kind of suck because he has to work until close but I feel more at ease now. And work hasn't been great for him lately either. But we'll get by. We always do. <3
Bowser somehow opened a hole up in the fabric protecting our bed foundation (the side facing the floor, which is elevated by a metal frame). For a while I thought it was only the foot of the bed, and the wooden planks inside still made it difficult to peer into. I figured he had a bunch of toys stashed away in there. We often hear him scratching at the inside of the foundation, and Will joked one morning that Bowser has been hard at work. It gives new meaning to "monster under the bed."
Last night I dropped something behind the bed, so I had to pull it out from the wall to find it. Upon doing this I realized that the entire wall-side of the foundation fabric seam has been torn off...and I was able to get a good look at Bowser's hiding place.
Did I say hiding place?
It's his lair.
He was laying in it when I discovered I could look in. There are little cotton balls everywhere, probably what he's tearing down whenever I hear his scratching at the sides. (Occasionally he'll walk around with them in his mouth and I'll have to pull them out - I wondered where they were coming from.) It was like looking at a hoarder's place. XD I wish I could take pictures and share. It was kind of a shock seeing this side of my cat. He looked a little bit annoyed with me when I was gaping in awe at his cat-cave. Surprisingly, no toys were found within the foundation.
I was so excited to show Will. I've never seen anything like it before. He was just as amused by it as I was.
When my tax refund came in I ordered Bowz a small kitty condo (it's more of a scratching post with a little cubby) that should be here tomorrow, but we're also supposed to have a snowstorm. I've been so excited about it but probably won't get it until Wednesday. =(
I'll come back to rant about work later this week. Hopefully things will quiet down when I don't have to be setting up interviews anymore.
