So today, following a job interview which I won't hear about for 3 weeks, and if I get it I'll be paid "less than what I would make at McDonald's", I decided to get a kitten.
She is 6 weeks old and teeny, a little rambunctious, but sweet. I'm just hoping she remembers how to get to the litter box and doesn't go to the bathroom on my acid-washed jean pocket patterned sheets. Yes, that's what the house came with, and the rest of the sheets are locked up in the "maid's closet". Needless to say, a sheet purchase may have to be made before I get a job.
I know cats are very self-sufficient, but I realized once I got her, that despite how much I love cats, I really don't know how to take care of them. Luckily, Olga, the kitty foster mother we got her from (who had 3 cats, and 3 foster kitties) gave us some advice. We are just hoping that Julie's allergies don't act up around her. But right now she is asleep on my bed, and so adorable.
The job search is tough. There just aren't a lot of resources for people like me who don't know Spanish well enough to work in a job where it is necessary. And waiting 3 weeks to hear from a job might not be the worst thing, but when it's only a temporary job, it is a long time.
Anyway, I am going to fill out my request for an absentee ballot before it's too late, and then snuggle with my kitten =)
