I took a bath earlier, hoping it would help my upset stomach. Combined with Pepto-Bismal, it did. I lay there in hot water and dozed a bit, and in between dozing, I got to watch Toad ( Read more... )

We picked up the rental car at 7.30 this morning. Dropped the car off at the mechanic's. Stopped at Target. Stopped at the bank. Home. I folded clothes; Nathan sent some emails he needed to send and finished packing. We got a call from the mechanic: one of the bolts that holds the motor mount to the engine block (we had it in to fix the motor ( Read more... )

I started out wanting to sleep all day.
I got up and knitted while watching Buffy (season 7, yay!).
I worked on my sweater vest that will be lacy and cute.
I took a nap.
I cooked baked potatoes.
I was a Red sandwich on kitty.
Squirrels ran about on my ivy-covered windows.

Haircut tomorrow! I'm happy. I should do before and after photos. Nah, don't care enough to ( Read more... )

I checked my bank account online this morning, and it gave me a thrill to see "Credit Card XXXX: 0 balance, 0 available." Really and truly canceled ( Read more... )

Suki's play style is slow and gentle then run and romp and ( Read more... )

I woke first at 4.45. I wasn't getting out of bed. I went back to sleep and dreamed that we received a phone call that our house and garage were on fire. I stuffed the cats in the cat boxes, woke up Nathan, grabbed my purse and keys, and slid out of my apartment building on a giant blow up slide, cats in tow. I don't even have a house or garage ( Read more... )

I'm up way too early. Fucking time change fucks with my inner clock, so instead of getting up at 6.45 like I used to, I get up at 5.30 or 5.45. Great. Of course, the cats don't mind. Means they get fed earlier ( Read more... )

Kitten is now ours. Her name is, tentatively, Taco. Because, Nathan says, she looks like she's half tabby cat and half calico. Mojo's getting over having her here. The kitten can actually walk around without Mojo hissing. This morning, the kitten came in and snuggled in bed. And by snuggled, I mean she attacked my arm while I petted Suki and ( Read more... )
