It's beautiful outside today. The birds are chirping, driving the cats wild. My neighbor Dan and I uncovered the swamp cooler and fired it up. For the first time since I moved here, it worked perfectly. Nothing to replace this year ( Read more... )

I just had my nose exfoliated by a kitten.

brideofsatan23 brought home a new kitten yesterday (supposedly for Misha, but I saw that I-need-a-kitty look in Katte's eyes). His name is Bubba, and he does what all kittens do. He licks my face. Last night it was my lips, which was cute but painful. Today is was my nose. It's scrubbed as hard as if I had used a ( Read more... )

Around 11 last night Katte started throwing up. At 3 this morning, she decided it was time to go to the hospital. I dragged Misha out of bed (she's staying with us for a couple weeks) and we rushed to Lakeview. They decided that Katte had appendicitis and they operated on her and removed her appendix.

So as brideofsatan23 and I were leaving the house for Area, I got this weird feeling... Then it hit me: we were going out!! It's been so long, I forgot what it was like. I hope people don't think that I'm keeping Katte locked in the attic or anything. It's just that the rest of our lives demand so much attention. It kind of sucks ( Read more... )

Which is what happens when I don't update my LiveJournal, ever.

Hmm... working lots of hours (target: 60 hours per week), brideofsatan23 working lots of hours running a store, getting over a minor case of strep (Katte got sick first, so I was forewarned and caught it early). Still in love with Katte ( Read more... )
