I Lived Like a Cat!

And now I don't want to live like a person anymore!!

I woke up around 11am and the cats and I had a snack. Then we groomed ourselves - me in the shower of course... living like a cat is fun, but one has to draw the line somewhere!!

My mom's birthday was yesterday so we went out to lunch (that is, I allowed them to feed me) and then I went to Twist for some yarn play. They have the Berocco Comfort SOCK yarn. Yes, it is acrylic, but it is also self-striping and comes in beautiful blues and greens. Sigh. I got some Soxx Appeal yarn, too and signed up for the On Your Toes sock club.

Then it was time for napping. Sammie and I took over the bed and had a lovely sleep. My brother's band was playing at a local bar so Michelle the Wonderful came over, rubbed on my neck for awhile (it's ugly - I carry all of my stress there) and then we went out cattin' around.

We decided that we are all too old to be hanging around bars so as soon as their set was done we all went home. They did a great job - they are all really dedicated to practice and it shows.

Now I'm at work - we have 2 clients in the unit and are expecting 2 more, so it's a full house tonight. Luckily at 8 it will be my turn to sit in the phone center and the other case manager can babysit. I brought a good snack - graham crackers and chocolate milk - and there is a whole season of Robot Chicken on my iPod. I'm all set.

I have also been thinking about planning a big vacation. Sort of a long-term planning thing. I was poking around online looking at vacations and you can rent a house in Italy for $800 a week... so I started thinking about how much fun it would be to go to Italy with Bean (and whoever else wants to go). There are locations in cities and in the country... some near beaches even. We could go and just veg out and eat and sleep and basically reenact the first third of Eat, Pray, Love.

If we start saving now we could have a kick-ass vacation in a few years. Seriously.

Anyone else want to come?!?
