Five things make a post
Nov. 22nd, 2018 01:05 am1. The rain has arrived! Air quality improved drastically within a matter of hours. Word has it that it's supposed to rain quite a lot over the next two weeks or so, which is welcome and much needed, if somewhat inconvenient for holiday weekend.
2. Sadly, my friends had to cancel today, but the upside is that I got to have a pretty relaxed day off instead. I had a leisurely breakfast, then got my toes painted a dark sparkly red.
3. T and I also took advantage of a break in the rain to go look at Macy's kitten windows. This is perhaps my favorite holiday tradition. I can't remember if I've talked much about it here -- it's a partnership between Macy's and the SF-SPCA, where adoptable kittens and puppies hang out in holiday-themed windows. It's a great fundraiser for the SF-SPCA, and many animals find homes. Plus, adorable and fun.
4. I haven't really updated you all on my own kitty in a while, have I? Tori is healthy and happy, if still a bit lonely we think. But we can't really get her a new companion (much as I would love to have a kitten or two around) for two reasons: 1. Tori is very territorial (she would flip out for days every time Lexi came home smelling of the vet, and once went ballistic when he got into some catnip), and we aren't sure how introducing a second cat would go; 2. Tori is immunocompromised because of her medications, so it would be a huge risk to bring home another cat, especially a shelter cat. So she will be an only cat for the rest of her life, and I think we're all mostly content with that.
5. Tomorrow, I will make pie. Mostly from scratch (I bought dough for the crust), which is not a thing I have often done. So we'll see how it goes.
