Everything Is Wonderful Now

Look at that little scamp. Meeko has WAY too much energy and as a result he takes it out on my poor furniture. He's very hard on things. I should clip his claws or something.

I was out picking up cat food and litter when I saw the door hanging scratch pad was only $4. I haven't bought them a new toy since the scratching post. So, what the heck? I picked it up, doused it with liquid catnip and he loves it! He's so silly. I have a video of him playing with it, and at one point he's hanging off the bottom, swinging back and forth (not touching the floor). He's some cute though. He looks like he's got mittens and socks on, especially when he stands up like that. Even Miss Pickles, who almost never plays with toys played with this new addition to their collection.

Yesterday, I got to talk to Julia P from high school on the phone. She's dating Chris Ticknor! I don't know what's crazier, that she's dating him (he was nerdy in HS) or that he's now SMOKIN' HOT! He's got a 12 pack. So let that be a lesson, don't be mean to the nerds cause they might wind up being rich or hot, or hell, both. It could happen! And Jules sister Amy is getting married next August I do believe. His name, I think, is Mark and he's in Hamilton? Good for her. Maybe she'll mellow out.

Last night I stopped by my parents place before heading to work, and got to do some laundry (saves me some cash) and I'll finish the rest when I get to have supper with them on Sunday. I'm glad that I don't have to go to the laundry-mat today. It smells funny, the people are strange (when it's not empty) and I'm generally bored out of my mind for at least an hour and a half.

Suppose to get my haircut at Steve's salon today but $18 bucks seems a bit steep for a simple cut with no wash, dry or even styling. I'm going to pop into the place across the road and see if they have any openings this morning. I'm sure Steve is really good, but he charges quite a bit more than the other salon's in the city.

Dave was really greatful for everything I did last week while he was away. Sales, GM stuff, my job, and let's not kid ourselves running herd on Steve. Everyone has been telling him that he's lucky to have me around. He also was thankful for the card I picked up and had everyone sign. Even Mark made it in over the weekend to sign it.

I am really surprised with myself. I realized yesterday that I'm not angry about the whole Keith thing anymore. It's waned big time. My Dad asked me if this was it for him and I, and I told him it was. Thing is, this was Keiths second chance. He blew it. Compound that with the fact that I talked to Heidi (Brandy's sister in-law) about that Auxilliary RCMP stuff (she's one like Keith) and told her what he's been telling us. Most of what he'd been saying was a complete lie. Not that I'm surprised, after all the other stuff that's come about.

So yeah, I'm actually really happy. Keith was starting to drag me down and become a real blight on my good moods. I'm feelin' good and free. Good ridance to bad rubbish, I say.
