The month of July.

This month has been all kinds of crazy: moving, unpacking (still not quite done, what the hell?), meeting UHH YEAH DUDE (best night of my life), seeing mc chris on the opening night of his tour (before the whole reddit crying video debacle) and then going on vacation for a week in Maine with my family (I could use another vacation after that vacation, whoa boy)

AND now it's almost August, which means summer is pretty much over, and I have not yet been swimming. I do not count jumping in the ocean and then getting back out cause it was freezing.

I was really worried about leaving Kiki while we were in Maine. Amber (cat aunt) cat-sat, which was SO helpful, but she couldn't be there every night sleeping over, so I imagine Kiki wandered around the apartment, meowing loudly and wondering where we were. After all, she was all alone. Every other time I've gone on vacation, she was at least with her sister, but not this time. I wish she could tell me if she was lonely. Trever has moved his four aquatic turtles into our home, so there are two large tanks to watch, but she doesn't really seem too interested in them at all. We know of a neighborhood cat that likes to hang out on our backporch occasionally, so when Kiki gets to go out there, she spends most of the time sniffing corners (probably where he has sprayed. He has the biggest furry catballs ever) so she is definitely aware that there are other cats close by. Does she want to meet them? Befriend them? Scratch their eyes out? Or hide in my closet?

Is she ready for a friend yet? Or it is best to let her live out the rest of her life as a spoiled only cat? This is tormenting me. I know, there are so many other more important things in the world to think about, but right now I just want to focus on my cat.

(who knows if we humans are ready yet...)
