year in review: july 2007

july
pre-kitty fiasco

the holiday was rather odd for the 4th, considering it was smack in the middle of the week. i guess it's always nice to have a day off, whenever it is. we spent the day bbq-ing in s's parking lot with his neighbors, then neil stopped by from kc & chatted for a bit.

mid-month i found out that one of my old grad school professors needed a new home for his cat, sweetie. we'd been talking about a pet, so we went over there & met her. she seemed a nice puss, but she'd gotten a little possessive of her humans over the two little girls in the house. we figured it would be okay to have her in a one-person apartment with no children, so we arranged to get her on august 1st. i had half the week off & i thought it'd be a nice time for her to acclimate to her new surroundings. little did we know what was in store...
