busy

It's been a crazy busy week, and it looks to continue through the weekend, as we'll have a friend staying with us. I've finally managed to schedule some quality time with a dentist to figure out why the (very expensive) work I had done didn't... ah... work, and in addition all the usual fun and excitement of language study, etc. There's also been a bizarre assortment of random little chores to get done, like paperwork for my new insurance, taking the cat fountain back (we finally decided kitten was unimpressed), etc. I feel like I haven't had time to even read the newspaper!

Cats generally don't seem to be impressed when you buy them stuff that you think is cool, do they? Yet give them the wrapper to a candy bar and it's like you brought them the best treasure ever given to a cat. Once, I saw this brush that the cats were supposed to brush themselves with. The way it worked is it had two corners of bristles, and you stuck it to the wall on a corner between rooms. The idea is that as they were walking through, they'd feel it, like the feel, and they'd begin rubbing against it regularly, saving you the hassle of brushing them regularly. As I took it out of the box and explained to the cats what it was for, you could almost see them saying "Yeah, right." Two months later there was not one strand of cat hair on that thing. In fact the carpet around it was free of cat hair, so I figured that they were making sure to let me know that they were purposefully avoiding it as they laughed at me. MFK
