Amusing Animal Stories
Dec. 1st, 2006 07:29 amWow. It's December already. Where did the year go? Before too long, it will be next December, and we'll be on our way out of here.
It has been an interesting morning so far. The kitchen lights went out. Lance replaced the bulbs and they still don't work, so it looks like the light fixture itself is the problem. I just hope Lance can mess with it and fix it himself and we won't have to call the landlord for the second time this week.
This happened about this time last year as well, only that time, it was the bulbs. But I needed to put a spare lamp in the kitchen and use that for light until Lance could get out and find the proper bulbs.
I also forgot it was trash day and Lance put the trash out half an hour later than usual. And the trash truck generally comes shortly after 6, which is when we get up. I hope we're not too late. He said nobody else had their trash out when he put ours out, but I double checked the trash calendar, and it IS today.
Also, I was just called into work this morning, but I told them that I have an appointment. The appointment is that I'm having lunch with my girlfriends today, but I don't have to tell them that. None of their business.
Now...for some funny stuff.
Mom has been regaling me with stories about the new cat and dog dynamic in the household. Before my brother and Cristine moved to Guam, they brought up their tuxedo cat, Chica, to come and stay with Mom for 3 months or so while Mom gets all of Chica's shots and paperwork done for her to go join them in Guam.
Well, just as I suspected, Buck is now Chica's bitch. At first, she wanted nothing to do with him, and he kept trying to play with her. But now, she sneaks up on him all the time and pounces on him, scaring him away, and then she chases him around the house.
Poor Bucky Poo. Hehe.
Well, last night, Chica found a new plaything...a BAT!
( The Scaredy Cat, the Bat, and the Cat )
Anyway, Mom is no longer at that job she hated. She is taking a 3 day weekend, and starts her new job on Monday.
Trash truck just came...about an hour and 15 minutes later than usual. Hmmmm.
