Kitty

Also, I'd like to apologize to everyone who I harassed at 2 AM about driving me and kitty to the SPCA. You know who you are.

Basically I didn't sleep at all last night because of this cat. Damn you. But despite the SPCA's ineptitude ("We don't know if we can pick him up from you, I'll ask my supervisor in the morning and we'll call you first thing." Surprise! They never called me!) I got everything sorted out.

I noticed he had a microchip, so I brought him down to the vet school (yeah, I sort of had to put him in a backpack and walk over...), and they scanned it for me. The owner was on vacation, and the cat was supposed to be under the care of a pet sitter (awksies). They were kind enough to take care of him until the owner/pet sitter could pick him up.

After that whole debacle, I treated myself to 10 AM ice cream at the Dairy Bar, and headed over to the arboretum. I've never been all the way down there. It was absolutely beautiful, even in winter. Made friends with some horses, got lost, stepped in too much mud, and somehow ended up all the way at the golf course? Really exhausted, went to sleep early.
