So Ling is home
May. 4th, 2010 10:55 pmAnd Kanda is now officially mine too. The neighbors opted not to take him (i.e. wife said no). I'm both glad and what the hell do I do now?
As for Ling, he might have GONE in the carrier/car ok there but coming back not so much so. He HOWLED. That's why he's a monster. Ling had an opinion on EVERYTHING. ANd everyone had to stop and Listen. To. Him. He got so mad he peed in his water dish (brilliant strategy there bubby). Now he has oral antibiotics and a bad attitude. He wants to be held but he also wants outside and he wants something to magically appear in his bowl that isn't cat food.
this end of me is sore. can you see my shame?
census bureau why did you bother? You didn't return our form. I didn't get it so...you're right. They asked me gender, do I live alone and race (human wasn't an answer). That was it. oh wait, rent or own. You wasted my time for THIS. I'd l ike to think if I said I lived with someone I might have been asked something you know useful to society other than a middle aged white woman lives alone in a crapshack apt.

Date: 2010-05-05 08:43 pm (UTC)Yeah I got the short form, and I have been expecting another longer form or a phone call because of some snarky answers I gave. The nicest one was "NONE of your business!"
