So are the days of our lives...

Remember the cat I was taking care of last summer... indefinitely?

Quick little update...
He starting urinating excessively, and I ended up taking him to the vet (i know this story is crazy).
He had diabetes... and promptly after the neighbor returned (and left again), I found myself taking care of him... only this time, my duties involved insulin shots and iron meds.

I haven't taken care of this cat since November and received a note from the owner last week.

Within the letter:

"As you know Marmie passed away in December..."

(insert brakes sound here)

Hold the phone...
"as you know..."???
when would I have known if you hadn't ever told me in person or handwritten it to me ?
which led me to this thought process...
was I supposed to be watching him when he died?
did he pass away the day she came home, and she just assumed I left him there for her to deal with?
this is so messed up!
The cat is still a burden and not even alive anymore!

I can't believe i just blogged about this...

10 Honest things

Not the most exciting of blog postings... but I'm just relieved I don't have to come up with 25.


and might i just add... Congress was able to pass an 800 billion dollar stimulus bill faster than I could come up with 10 honest things about myself... shady...


1. I'm selectively grossed out by feet. Sometimes I can't stand them, and sometimes I'm totally unaffected. 

2. I strongly dislike olives. They are always hiding in things and always catch me off-guard... kind of like roaches... yeah, that's right... I just equated olives with roaches, jealous??

3. I'm trying to marry off my roommates.

4. I wish more people would watch Friday Night Lights... NBC Friday nights. 

5. I try to avoid overhead lighting. My bedroom light hasn't worked for 4 years, and I haven't missed it one bit... also the reason some of my clothing doesn't quite match. 

6. I don't have a washer/dryer in my apartment.

7. I named my laptop "mighty B." I name inanimate objects. 

8. Words with too many P's freak me out. 

9. Since college, I've had increasing trouble with motion sickness. not fun. 

10. I was thisclose to choosing Rice over Texas A&M. 

11. PS... guess what happened to the one-armed fairy  (see previous blog)

finally legal:)

words to live by

I need to be reminded of this verse everyone once in a while...OK more like everyday... It's framed and in my closet. what a great reminder it is of where our salvation is found.
Hallelujah... Thank you Jesus!

"Do not trust in princes, in mortal man, in whom there is no salvation." Psalm 146:3
