If my cat was my kid, he'd be the kid hanging out behind the 7-11 getting high off of aerosol cans of whathaveyou ... I woke up to what I can only in retrospect conclude was the cat licking my hair spray bottle. Then when I got up to give him his breakfast he hacked up foamy stuff, so I only put down a little dry food. He also likes to pull my hair out of my hair brush and eat it. GROSS CAT. Oh, and before I figured out what was going on, as a kitten, he used to eat used dryer sheets. My little junkie cat. He's going to be STARVING when I get home from work. Hopefully he feels better. And I add hair products to the list of things to put away from pesky curious cats!
Just got back from a 20 minutes desk shift. It's data gathering week at the library so every half hour we have to send someone to walk all seven levels of our books stacks (plus a handful of other rooms under our purview) and count how many people are there. Thankfully I got deputized to watch the desk and the desk staff person did the walking. So I just got to stand there and stare at students working away. I'm okay with that :)
Officially I had a 3 1/2 day weekend, but Thursday afternoon was taken up with our 1937 radio play. Then Friday I was in a car for 4+ hours with my parents (oh god) going to a family funeral. One of my mother's cousins. World's longest, ramblyest come to jesus euology ever. Mostly I just had to shut out the voices in my head screaming about how that'll be me some day burying my parents. ALALALALLALALALALA. Was so wiped out when I got home -- mostly from other people's emotions -- that I kind of went to bed at 4 pm, and got up around 7 to eat and watch tv and then went right back to bed. Cue more laying around the house on Saturday!
But Sunday I got out of the house and met a couple friends at our mutual friend's bookstore for Sunday brunch. They always have a musician performing from 12 - 2 for them, and it was a really nice time eating a yummy Monte Cristo sandwich until I horrifically up-dumped (as they say around here) my giant mint mocha coffee all over the floor and partly on my friend. OH GOD. You can't take me anywhere. And when I got home I found maple syrup dribbled all down my front!! Sigh.
But back to work today and with the goal of getting things back on track. Oh, plus a new online scrapbook class starts today. I am ADDICTED to the teacher's scrapbooking videos. I'd kind of sad. But they're AWESOME :))))
And now off to stalk my Lewis Secret Santa gift-ee :)
