So I haven't wanted to blog much recently. Honestly, with everything going on I've had to live it and would rather let it pass than talk about it and drag it out. But Pete mentioned me not posting anything real and I guess anyone who reads this as a window into my life deserves an update.
Katrina...yadda yadda yadda. I don't have to mention anything about it. Every channel on the T.V. and radio already has and the papers are replete with hurricane information. Suffice it to say, it's close by, it's horrible and we are damn lucky to have made it by with as little damage as we did.
John crew changes today and I'm worried sick about him getting home. I-12 is open but with "significant delays" which doesn't bode well for gas. He said the city where he gets dropped off has gas and I told him to try and find a gas gan to fill for the road. A crewman on the boat gave him a louisiana map and he's going to try and get home via some backroads. My stomach is in knots over it.
Our siding/roof contractor that came has yet to get back to us with a quote. nearly 4 weeks later and I haven't heard from him. The other roofer gave us a quote that day, so we're probably going to just use him. At least the roof will be fixed. We're so ready to sell and move.
We took Kitty to the vet yesterday. The day before I'd picked up Kittums to love on him and found a large lump just next to his upper right armpit. It didn't seem to bother him, but it's there nonetheless. The doctor said if she'd been able to get her fingers completely around it or draw fluid from it she wouldn't have been concerned. Unfortunately she could do neither, so Kitty is scheduled for surgery next Wednesday. They'll be removing it and having it biopsied. I've been spoiling Kitty a lot these past two days. He's been my little boy for nearly 12 years. Needless to say I'm sick over this too.
On the game front updates and expansions galore. Sims 2: Nightlife comes out today and it looks fun. Issue 5 went live on City of Heroes and it has me depressed about my future in the game. Ditto goes for the EQ2 expansion which has drastically altered everything and made any summoned pets pretty much paper. City of Villains beta is nice, but still can't talk about it much.
Don't know what we're doing for the holidays. Don't know what we're doing for thanksgiving. With the year the way it's been so far, I'm inclined to pass on holidays this year. John's b-day is September 20th and he's forbidden me from having a party of the like. His b-day present still isn't here and has me pissed off. It was supposed to have made it here already and been set up by the time he arrived. I have a mind to call Alienware and tell them to stuff it. A month is a bit long to wait on shipping.

That goes double for me concerning Kitty. I've known him almost as long as the rest of the gang.
I remember coming home to the house on Lois Lane after a long day at work. No one was at home. I turn the corner and there's this big ole ball of fluff on the brick half-wall. Despite how friendly he was, I was still kinda leary. I kept asking myself how he could have gotten inside or if he was a stray or a few dozen other thoughts to explain his existence. Then I got the phone call from Myshe explaining everything. Since then, it's been nothing but love (SUPLEX KITTY!).
Again, I'm keeping him in my prayers like I would keep any of you all.
