Day after day

So far, 2008 is pretty good.  I am happy with the present, I’m looking ahead a smidge but not enough to freak myself out, and I’m doing pretty well with not looking back.  A few points of interest:

I’m thinking about going back to school.  Vet tech?  Vet?  Either way it will be a challenge since I haven’t taken math or science in 6 years or so.  And I was never that great at it.  But I want to give it a shot, and I kind of miss being in school.  So I’ll probably take algebra or something equally awesome this summer.

My kitties are sickly.  After a couple weeks of battling diarrhea and Hugo peeing on my bed every day (really), and $250 later, things seem to be looking up.  Having to give them oral medicine really sucks for all three of us, but hopefully it’s worth it.  At one point a few weeks ago I was thinking that maybe I am just not cut out for cat ownership and I’m in over my head and I should give them to someone who can take care of them properly… but I love them, and we’ll work it out.  In fact, Oscar is resting his chin on my arm at this very moment. (All together now: “awwww.”)

I love my new house.  I feel grown up, I feel at home.  I love my canine niece and nephew, and living with dogs does wonders for my mood.   We are having a housewarming party in a few weeks and I’m so excited.

Despite the honeymoon period being way way over, I still love my job.  Most days.  It’s a good exercise in self-assessment.  I’m hoping to move up in our little world one of these days.

I’m going to my parents’ in Florida in a couple weeks for grandpa Morty’s 80th birthday party.  My parents are strongly encouraging me to sing him a song, and so I am.  I’m more nervous about singing to my family in my living room than I would be about getting on a stage, oddly.  Despite that I could sing Puff the Magic Dragon and they’d probably cry.

Oh, and I broke my glasses.  They’re held together with tape right now.  I’m sure to get a date this way.
