Sticky, stinky, and broke

[kimberkit]

Today, I tried Softpaws on my cat, in the hope that she would stop scratching at my couch. She was not thrilled with this, and I am now hot and sticky (on the other hand, if the product actually makes her scratching ineffective, I'll fight with my cat gladly). I grumped for a bit, and then figured that I should do my work. But I had no motivation to do my homework, even though Matt T is coming over, which means I probably should, like right now.

So I opened my fridge, feeling exhausted, and realized I was out of... everything, liquids included. Grr. Fine. Off to Fairway (which is the most staggeringly amazing supermarket I've ever seen, possibly even including Trader Joe's - they have EVERYTHING you could possibly think of. Example: when I went looking for mustard, they had an entire aisle for various kinds of it.) and then grocery bag handle broke, which means I was awkwardly clutching groceries on way home.

I smell, and I don't think my apartment is better off, either. Two days ago, I threw out some funny-smelling meat, and it smelt up the apartment overnight. So today, no air conditioning, while I attempt to air out the place (and besides, air conditioning costs money that I don't really have. I paid some bills today that made me cringe, and I haven't even seen *this* month's bill, which is sure to be higher than the fans I had running 24/7)

But at least I have a (pissed-off) cute cat, and my lemonade.

I think scratched furniture is just a fact of Life with Cats. kitties are cuter than sofas.

It's hot! Get lots and lots of things to drink! Dehydration is BAD. Almost as bad as decaffeination.

At least you have lemonade. It's a bit symbolic, don't you think? When life gives you lemons...yeah, you get it.
