Post-Pennsic blahs
Aug. 24th, 2005 10:10 amWell, sort of blahs, anyway. I'm feeling so much better than I was on Monday that I hate to even call this blah.
During my absence, it became easier to tell the kittens apart... Carmen has developed a bulge around her middle that clearly distinguishes her from her more svelte sister. It's rather amusing. I'm glad she's started being more freindly again; the first day and a half she was pretty standoffish and a few times even ran from me. Nothing like lying on your belly with your head under the bed, sweet-talking a cat, to make you feel like a mature, intelligent human being. Heh.
Another issue, of more concern, is the letter that I received from my downstairs neighbor, saying she's been bothered by the sound of banging and heavy furniture being moved in my apartment at around 5 or 5:30 AM. The note was dated the 18th. If we assume that she wrote it after being awakened that morning, there is something very fishy indeed going on. As in, I wasn't IN my apartment from the 8th to the 21st. A friend came to feed the cats and take care of the litter box, but I sincerely doubt he did that at 5 AM, and neither of those activities takes place in that room anyway. Furthermore, anyone who knows me will testify under oath that I am extremely unlikely to be doing anything more active than snoring at 5 AM. And while I have it on good authority that I used to snore mightily, I doubt that even my worst is THAT loud. Unfortunately, I have been unable to find Miss Lily home so that I can talk to her about this.
Nia and I are going to do laundry tonight. I do envy those who have washers and dryers at home. For that matter, when I got home Sunday night, my apartment was much more uncomfortable than camp had been-- neither is air conditioned but camp usually had a breeze. And the Baronial shower had better water pressure than my shower here. It made me seriously reconsider my love of this place, hardware floors and 9' ceilings or not.
