My sleepy kitty. Now anyway. Last night at midnight, she was determined to defeather her mouse, running back and forth in my room. Well, I love her anyways.

I earned 5 hours

I have earned 5 hours of vacation time. It may not be much to you . . . but its symbolic to me. Vacation is in my future! Thanksgiving and turkey and Christmas and family. Super exciting.

Mischief pictures . . .



The video shows my little Mischief (whom I am starting to call MayMay, like sweatheart in Chinese) playing with her feather-tailed mouse. Plus I bought a stick with a hanging little cloth. She loves it and I like helping her get exercise (she is a little bit rounded).  Its like I got a kitten with a grown up body and laid-back style.  

My "boss" is going to be working from home tomorrow. So I am going to be going in late (9am instead of 8:20am) and trying to go to bed early. Frankly I can't stand anymore presidential debate. Ugh . . . ugh.

Happy Mischief . . .

I have a kitty! Her name is Mischief.How cool is that! She really likes a certain spot on the bed already and though she hasn't shown huge "lap cat" tendancies but she has been very easy-going and happy, I think. Like really likes sleeping on the bed with me (I was lying down reading). She is so soft! She feels wonderful. Hopefully Samantha will warm up. So far, she isn't to pleased to have this become reality, even though she ok'd the whole thing. Luckily I think Mischief is going to be a really easy adjustment. She lets me pick her up and hold her; she purrs easily and often. Hopefully she can learn to leave Samantha alot of space.

Mischief and more

So this may be my new cat. Her name is Mischief and she is 5 years old, and a true lap cat I am told. She was in a happy home but her papa got sick and is no longer able to take care of her and her other friends. Since she is a little black kitty, she is much harder to place. Plus she is older, two strikes. But she maybe absolutely perfect for me! Apparently she is very adaptable and I am so excited. I am ready to be slightly rash in this decision. I have been preparing and thinking about this for a long time and have met many cats already. I think I am at the point where I don't need a bolt of lightening love, but a healthy liking and hope for the future. And an expectation of falling in love really soon.

As far as work, it was a really good day today. Lots of people peaced out at work today completely or at least early, plus everyone left was on site of one of our projects, even my "boss"-client. But then he came is and gave me some work. I am 
feeling much more confident that I can figure these things out. I may be "green" but I am not stupid. I can learn! It was nice to get a whole bunch done today. And to look at Monday and see things to do, things that I can actually accomplish!
