Thirsty Thursday

Good morning!  Life is moving along with the week.  Here we are at Friday eve already and feels like just yesterday it was Monday. 

Last night I was brushing my teeth and heard this noise, I had seen Rudy got on the Cat Treadmill and was scratching it, that was just a precursor to tell me that he was ready to play.  Well that noise I heard was Rudy actually using the treadmill.  I peeked around the corner and he was staring right at me, he knew it would get my attention.  Apparently he knows how it works.  Not sure if he’s a fan of it or just doesn’t want me to know that he knows how to use it.  It made me happy but by in large I still think that it was money wasted.  Both cats still play with the box it came in way more than they give the treadmill any actual attention.  So glad I didn’t spend hundreds of dollars on that contraption.  I got my usual wake up call from Rudy this morning and he gave me a love bite on the chin again but not before trying to wash my face.  ICK a cat bath, I don’t mind a lick to my arms or on my forehead but not a fan of a cat or dog licking my face.

The other night Mora tore up the cat teaser.  It was relatively brand new and with just a couple swipes she wrecked it with her claws pulling out several strands of the ribbon.  Rudy likes to hear the ribbon whipping through the air so he can try to jump and catch it, he’s pretty good.  Now I need to head back to the pet store for another one.  I did some Amazon looking but nothing there struck my fancy. 

The fuck up ferry visited me again at work.  My mistake making colleague make a change to one system for someone but didn’t bother to update all of the other systems, so I got called out for a mistake that he made.  I just sucked it up and fixed it.  I really want to gave a go at his nuts, just one swift kick and I think I’d feel better.  I can’t believe he’s that lazy or forgetful, I think that he doesn’t apply himself enough and that he also smokes way too much pot.  To the point that it has cooked way too many of his brain cells.  He came back after his leave and appeared to be on top of his game but that was short lived and now were back to normal so I anticipate that there will be more messes like this, joy just what I needed.  To say that he owes me a lot is quite an understatement but the best gift he could ever give to me (provided he wanted to) would be to get his act together.  I don’t expect that I will ever collect on what he owes me but I suppose stranger things have happened. 

It’s one of those mornings again where I have a lot of time on my hands.  Lunch time will bring a meeting and a little bit of work but then my day is essentially done unless something comes up.  The whole wait and see approach makes for a long day but I’d rather have that than be pulling my hair out.  This is my last week of relaxation before I go on-call next week, which I am not looking forward to.  I am trying to enjoy the downtime while it lasts. 

Finished off the pizza last night.  Wow that thing lasted way longer than I wanted it to but it was still good.  Tonight will be a Mexican Beef Burrito, store prepared.  Not sure if I want to chop it in half and make two meals out of it or just enjoy the whole thing in one sitting. 

Well I think it’s time to escape the computer while I can.  I know it’s only an invitation for chaos to start and my phone to blow up but that might not happen either.  Hope that your having a good day.
