Phew...so due to my inability to understand dates, the mysterious blog reader was clearly me. Thank goodness...

Today was a mildly annoying day. I didn't manage to put together an super-duper-ultra-terriffic scholarship "plan of study" as I had hoped...nor did I finish my paper, but I have, near the conclusin of the day, made serious progress in both these regards.

I talked to Mr. Burns today. I needed his advice about what kind of wine to buy as I wandered lost among the shelves of the liquor store. God I miss my liquor store back home..I knew exactly where everything I wanted was...sigh. Anyway, he talked me down from the ledge and I left with a very cheap merlot and a very cheap shiraz cabernet. Plus some vanilla vodka....yummy, wimpy vodka....

Then I went to Junior's for Turkey Weekend dinner and football...which was fun...I clearly did NOT need to eat three pieces of pie (two pecan, one pumpkin)...but hey, who's counting...

I also bonded with the newest addition to our household...a pretty kitty that roomie allowed herself to get talked into taking home. She was so nervous I'd be upset about it...and nervous that she and the cat won't get along, but so far as I can tell this cat rocks. She pretty much never makes any noise, is declawed and currently sheds minimally. We bonded today and she nuzzled up in my neck. It was great. I love fuzzy animals. I'm gonna be sad when roomie and I part ways and the cat doesn't live with me...not that I can afford to take care of animal....nor do I have the mental capacity to handle the tragedy of losing a pet....
