what a day....

I had the worst day yesterday, nothing went right. I mean nothing. I rant about it in yesterday's video a bit. I went home for lunch to change my shirt and pick up a card for my niece and on the way back a series of events delayed me 45 minutes (the trip should take 15 max). Then after work I had to drive over an hour out of my way to retrieve some presents my parents had forgotten at home, then there was my nieces party, which is a story for another day. end.of.rant



my cat is driving me insane. she knows (yea she does, don't give me that "she's only an animal " crap) that she isn't supposed to go into the living room (she scratches things) and yet, I just chased her out of there for the fourth time this morning. It's funny, when I go in there to get her out she starts running and emits this groany irritated noise that so indicates to me she's pissed at being evicted. She knows exactly what she's doing, trying to get into the trash and grab a nice item for herself. I feed her very well, but for some reason she finds it exiting to steal away something from the trash. weird cat...

Otter, bear, or just hot, hairy Persian guy, why wouldn't I want to look at you? :)

Oh, and cats are the spawn of Satan and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.

HUGS and stuff...
oh and HAPPY HNT!

A gorgeous cat with a mind of her own. Cats are trainable, though.

The Persian is nice to look at, too. :)

happy HNT.

Sorry yesterday sucked. At least it's in the past.

I've found that a squirt bottle does a good job training cats.

Your "useless" facts are awesome. Do you have a "100 details" list? If not, your facts are a good start.

I LOVE your pic! Thanks for posting it!

ohhhhhh Kitty!!! How cute!

Great to know a little more about you... I should do one of those lists sometime. I see a lot of bloggers out there that have that as a link on their sidebar. Good idea.

Aw, the poor dear. Hopefully the cat is okay, but hopefully she will behave better in the future.

the otter pic cracked me up... as for cats. we all know that cats are reincarnated people. it's the only logical explanation behind their behavior.

Blogger Rian said...
Such an adorable furry creature. So cute.
And the cat is cute as well. :-)

I've been having a crappy week, but nothing a friday drunken blog won't cure ;)

Thanks for the compliment-have a great weekend as well-Jeff

Wow, I was married for a year and a half, and it was enough for a lifetime.

Oh yeah, and that cat Totally knows what the score is. She just thinks she can take you.
