A Little Goes A Long Way

This past week, I have not taken (but one yesterday) job assignments as so to prepare for my midterm today (noon to 3 pm). So, when I got up this morning and noted all the open jobs, I have to admit, I signed up for a couple more. But, the April rush isn't in yet. I am almost scared of the rush after hearing my boss mention how I could (if I wanted to be) be busy with 4 jobs every day in April. Of course, I don't want that and I would never accept that many jobs. But... it leaves you a lot to think about, doesn't it. Maybe this is an ok job after all if there are really that many people wanting it done.

No Really... I'm Your Best Friend, Little Birdy

"Hey, Sunny? Come over here. I want to... ummm... talk to you. Yeah... talk!"
"What? What Am I doing that makes you take photos? Sunny and me.... We're just talking!"
"Hi, Sunny Bird! You look sooooooo tasty today." - Katie Cat

Sometimes... Some Days.. I wish... Oh, how I wish!

I know the title of my blog for today makes no sense. It is just one of those days where things don't seem exactly right. You know the idea. Sometimes I just wish (fill in the blank). Some days I would/could just (fill in the blank). I wish (fill in the blank). But, today, I can answer all those questions.

SOMETIMES:

Sometimes I just wish that things would go the way I want them. Sometimes I just things would work out in a logical manner that makes total sense to others. For example, if I have more credit card debt, I am rewarded by creditor. That makes no sense! If I want a higher credit score, I give myself more debt? Weird!

SOME DAYS:

Some days I wish that I had never been born. Some days, I just wish I wouldn't wake up in the mornings. Some days I wish I understood human nature more than I do. Some days I just wish I wasn't me any more because I am so sick of being me that I am finding it gagging. Me is not a good person to be. Wouldn't wish being me on any living human being.

I WISH:

I wish that there were a multitude of jobs that didn't require being a cashier. I wish my job paid more than I put out in a month. I wish that Stephen understood me and I understood him more. I wish that all the cats of the world had great homes. I wish my anger didn't the better of me more often than not. I wish my parents lived closer. I wish I could see my family more often.

OH, HOW I WISH:

Some days, I just am constantly wistful about wishing. For example, today, I wish that I understood what to do next when packing up the room to move this weekend. I just don't know what to do next. And, that bothers me.

Anyone know a good way to not allow my anger to get the better of me? I'm really tired of needed to fight the fight or flight instincts. Open for suggestions here.

And I Think It's Gonna Rain Today!

No... I do not think it is going to really rain in the literal since it is sunny and around 40 degrees. I mean in the figurative sense. I just want things to go well. Today we are celebrating K's birthday (which was really yesterday... of which we went to pet the cats at the humane society). I want everything to go well for her. But, around here, niceness is a luxury and I don't want that to ruin her day. I vow on this webblog that I will not be the one today to cause problems. I will not rise to baiting. I will just be there and enjoy the company. Wish me luck.

Katie, The Sunspot Cat


Lately, Katie Cat has been trying to locate new sleeping spots. J's dining room chair is her new favorite. She goes over to the chair around noon and stays there until at least 3 pm. She is soooo cute! I hope she continues to find cute sleeping locations.

DUCKPIN Bowling?


For those of you who don't know what Duckpins are, imagine bowling with tiny midget pins with a shot put and getting to throw the shot put 3 times to knock down your 10 midget pins. Ya got it? No? That's ok. I think it is something you gotta try to get. Anyhoooooo.....

Today, I had a shop at a local bowling alley. Like always, cannot say where or when. All I can say was that it was a bowling alley that actually had DUCKPINS!!! Today's shop was to see if women get treated differently then men when they go bowling. J. and I had a decent time bowling and didn't kill each other or make fun of our bowling stances. She was a good sport to lose twice and I was an even worse winner getting a coveted strike!!! WOOOHOOO! Food service was horrid. Food was good, though. We get to do it all again next week. Aren't we lucky.
