Going to Mum’s for the weekend. Just to detox, I think. I’ve had a horrible last few weeks, and I just need to get out of this place. Anymore fighting and drama, and I swear I might have a cranial aneurism and blow up. I’ve been suffering severe migraines the last couple of days, as well as nausea and flu-like symptoms. The first thing people have said to me, was of course “swine flu.” Which… just made me face-palm.

Twila, the cat I’ve been taking care of for my stupid friend Kyle, murdered my fish before my very eyes earlier this morning. I’ve been very depressed, and in shock, I guess you could say, since it happened. The worst part is that there was nothing I could’ve done, he would have passed either way (either by her taking him or by suffocation). I’m not angry with Twila, because it’s in feline nature to hunt fish and whatnot, but I’m still rather bitter about it. Ever since she’s been here, the house is in disarray, because she loves doing things she knows she’s not supposed to. My cats are beginning to adopt her attitude, and it’s a bit unsettling. They’re ripping into the wallpaper, destroying my books, shredding my flannel pajamas and so on. I think I’m going to have to tell Kyle to take her to stay with someone else, because I can’t handle her anymore.

While I was mourning for Edward this morning, Lizzy came and comforted me, which was a change. She has been a lot nicer to me lately, which is nice. It certainly feels like the first two weeks I had her as a kitten, when she stayed with me at all times. Her favourite spot now is to curl up behind my computer monitor and nap (there isn’t any cords or whatnot in the way – so I don’t yet have an issue with her sleeping there). It’s nice that she actually wants to spend time with me now.

Even though I’ve lost one of my best animal friends today, it’s not all bad news in my house. Kia, the cat that was abandoned here, had her kittens the day before yesterday. There were three kittens born, and all three are healthy and content. Kia did very well giving birth, and is an excellent mother. Two of the kittens are a beautiful cream colour (one of them is mine) and the other is a chocolate brown with cream coloured patches underneath his eyes. I have yet to get pictures, because Kia’s on the defensive because she can smell the other cats on me, but I’m hoping she’ll soon let me.

Site wise, I am almost finished with the main stuff. I’m making more buttons and what not, going through my old link database and cleaning up content and what not… once it’s all validated, I’ll put it up. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday, this site will be back in business. I’m trying to get things going, but being stressed and being sick has taken a toll on me.


So, I am steadily working on the new site. I had to reinstall WordPress, because I accidentally deleted my database for it on the subdomain… because I had, shall we say, a severe blonde moment. I am putting the final touches on my first theme, and I am super proud of it… I’m also working on the pages and content for this bad boy. I haven’t decided yet what the plan is… hopefully I can get most of it done tonight, but I don’t know. I’m making really good progress, and that’s all I can really ask for at this point. Life is pretty hectic. More on that later, though.
