Last week was made more stressful than necessary by, mostly, myself. One of these days tapping into stress as my energy source is going to make me pay...BIG TIME. At least I am very honestly about where the blame lies.
Georgia was adopted this weekend, her new family came to the adoption fair and picked her up at 10am and Hippo came home all by himself. Poor Hippo. He was obviously lonely and spent a fair among of time crying outside of my door in the morning. Having one cat might be good for when you're socializing the said cat, because then it forces the cat to interact with you. Having one cat when the said cat is already used to having another friend around is...sad. I feel bad for him and so spent considerable time yesterday cuddling him and will need to spend at least an equal amount of time to de-cat-fur my outfit come next laundry day.
I miss Georgia, but she has a permanent home now and it's, heavens help us, kitten season. FFO needs all the help it can get in the upcoming months. We're probably going to end up with another cat fairly soon. I wonder what the next cat'd be like. I've looked through some of the "Adopted" cats that're listed under FFO. There is, apparently, a cat named Dante, and another one named Gatsby, which amused me no end. Just imagine shouting the name "Dante" to get a cat to come home.
I was lazy this weekend and Annie was not. She cleaned the kitchen, the bathroom, as well as vacuumed the living room and the corridors. I felt bad but, of course, am immensely happy that the corridor is no longer crunchy (Georgia's messy with her litter).
More stuff later. Meanwhile, Golden Compass thing stolen from Lucy's blog:

Stress/last-minute panic always makes me think of that Calvin and Hobbes comic I had taped to my lit notebook (sophomore or junior year, don't remember)-

College stress. Yes...Sometimes I look back on my college days as some kind of golden era...You're reminding me of the reality--it was stressful as hell!! Multiple midterms on the same day, papers due, quizzes and reading assignments, homework due, and more!!
For that matter, sometimes I reminisce about how I had more friends back then. In point of fact, I had many acquaintances and very few friends. Your real friends are a pricless treasure. Uh yes, I've got this habit of always stating the ultra-obvious.
