It's morning somewhere

Click on the photo to get a good glimpse of Parker Dmitri trying to pull the rope away. It was funny that Rocky Girl decided to add her paw to the string, too.

Yesterday, I went to my sister's house to go horse riding. Finally, I have pictures (other than cats) to post on the blog:) There are more pictures at The other blog.

The kitten, Parker Dmitri, thought Sgt Mango's food sounded really delicious. She wanted to try a bite, but he had other ideas.

Parker Dmitri is such a sweet kitten. She is a horrible biter, though. The other cats are no longer hissing, but she has gotten slapped a time or two. She runs through the place, as though the hounds of hell are an inch from her tail. She has gotten kicked, accidentally, of course, because of her incredible speed, and not exactly watching where she's going. I'm going to have to remember not to roll the computer chair around, because she likes to lay under it, when she has to take a breather.

It's been a very hectic week. I zoomed home, yesterday, in the car I bought in December. I made a quick turn, turning the steering wheel all the way to the right. As my car was turning, I heard ths nasty sounding clunk! Then, as I straightened it out, I heard, "jingle, jingle". Today, I drove the first car to get the window fixed. Once it was finished, I hurried home and, very slowly, hoping I wouldn't have to call a tow truck, drove the other one to the shop. As I waited for a shuttle to come, I received a phone call from the shop. Apparently, the hub had locked up, causing the axle to break. The guy told me I was very lucky to make it there. For Sure!

After hitting the snooze button countless times, I got up to go to work. I took my shower, gave Sgt Mango his shot, treated cats, gave Sgt Mango some of his expensive food, made instant coffee, got all my things together, and was running about 30 minutes early as I walked out the door. Good thing, too. As I neared my car, I wondered, "what is that on the ground?"

When I got to it, I found out. It was glass. Some piece-of-shit cockroach smashed my poor car's window. The door was still locked, but the box between the seats was thrown open and stuff from it was tossed around...as well as glass all over the place. I had $10 worth of winning scratcher tickets in the box. Those are gone. So are all the already scratched loser tickets, from goodness knows how long ago - that were tucked in between the passenger seat and the box. I hope whoever did it chokes on whatever they use that $10. for. I sure wish I knew who did it. Anyway, I know not to leave scratchers (winners or losers) in sight, now.

So, I went back inside and grabbed the phonebook to find the city police phone number (I wasn't about to call 911, unless I couldn't find their regular number). I found it and told dispatch what happened. I told her I had to go to work, and left a number for someone to call me back (to take a report and give me a report number for the insurance). I went back inside and got the broom. I swept up as much glass as possible, grabbed the keys to the other car, and drove to work.

The sky looked like it might rain. At lunch I hurried home and duct-taped plastic bags on the window. I noticed the brick, used to break the window, was still on the passenger seat. It did not look familiar. I now wonder if it was actually thugs who broke the window, or if it was the crazy xwife of the four + years ago xboyfriend. It was years and years ago that they divorced, but I've heard she's very vindictive. Not that I've done anything to her! Sure, the xboyfriend and I are still friends, but haven't been romantically inclined for over 4 years. He's had some troubles with her, and he called me, some time back, telling me that if anyone comes to the door that I don't know, don't answer it. I was wondering if she might have followed me home from someplace, and came back around early morning. If it was someone walking, would they be carrying the brick, on the off chance they might see something they wanted to steal in a car?

So, once I got off work, I visited the kittens, then came home. I saw there were still glass fragments around. I pulled out the broom and swept some more. I still haven't cleaned any of the glass out of the car. I guess that will keep for tomorrow, or later this week. I'll have to call the glass shop, too. Damn!

A friend of mine has five cats. Two of the cats had kittens. The first one had one kitten, then the second had four. Since that made ten cats, in all, I told her I would take one. She gave away the first kitten, already, because it was older than the second batch. That still leaves her with nine cats. When she told me what colors they were, I told her I would take the white-with-black-ears-kitten. The first pictures she showed me were of a very ugly little kitten, of course, the kitten was only about four weeks old, at the time.

Last weekend, I took my camera with me when I visited the kitten. In the picture above, the kitten is walking with mom. I thought that was a cute picture.I think she's looking pretty cute, now. She's about six weeks old. My friend told me I wouldn't be able to take her home until she's about ten weeks old. Boy, will my other cats be pissed! Especially the Princess! In fact, while we were viewing what pictures to post for FCB, Grey Feather was sitting on my lap. All of a sudden, she turned and gave me a really odd look, then she jumped down. It's as though she was really looking at the pictures. I wonder...
