I Hate Suprises
You know when you get to that’s in life where you think you *might* just have it all together? Yeah no not me really either, but I was so bloody close I could taste it. Plans laid out, visions of where the future was headed and all that jazz. Then Bam! All it takes is one slit second, bot even a bad decision and it all changes in a heartbeat. At this point it’s a hypothetical change, nothing set in stone but it’s looming on the horizon and contingency plans B through X didn’t cover this. Totally blindsided. Well welcome to my last 24 hours. It’s been a turbulent ride and at this point I’m not sure which way is up, though that might be the pharmacy of Valium and Xanax I’ve consumed talking. Ground down, I’ve got that much in perspective at least. Time and the waiting game. I’m not a patient person, especially when I’m not in total control of the situation. Even more neurotic when I have no fucking control.
Now before anyone goes freaking out everyone is in perfect health, nothing doom and gloom looming, just perhaps some unexpected change. Did I ever mention I hate surprises? I do, with a passion. So fuck this.
On a more cheerful bite the latest member of our fur family came to join us on Friday. Bosco/Loki depending on who you ask is settling in like a champ. Elliot The Wonder Cat has turned into all sorts of Grumpy Cat but is coming around.
Turns out this little ball of fluff likes to play. So he’s winning points with her. We’ve gone from growling and hissing from 20 feet to mammoth chase each other around sprees until someone is exhausted. That someone being Elliot mainly! At 5 months she just can’t keep up with her 11 week counterpart. It’s been an interesting ride but they seem to have made friends and that’s all you can hope for in 48 hours, right? The pitter patter of eight teeny cat feet as they race through the bedroom night as we’ll be baby elephants. They don’t play quietly at all.
They have distinctive personalities. Elliot is Alpha female and doesn’t like to be challenged. Bosco is a total fearless adventurer that doesn’t seem to know boundaries. It’s been an interesting mix. Elliot is very independent and Bosco is a total snuggle bunny. That said they both run the house in their own separate ways. So far they agree, though the day they disagree, well I hate to think what will happen. Let’s cross that bridge when we come to it eh?
So that’s the weekend update. Enjoy the rest of yours!
