Christmas miracles CAN happen. :unsmith:

Yeah, so:

• Work was a headache as expected (Seriously, who in their right mind thinks "You know where we should go for Christmas? JACK IN THE BOX. OM NOM NOM TACOS AND CURLY FRIES.")
  
• and I was pretty bleh when I came home (two young girls - DeAnna's first daughter/my stepdaughter Cheyenne is visiting as well - making an UTTER MESS of the place with Christmas gifts that DeAnna and I in turn did most of the cleaning up of)
  
• plus Christmas dinner is going to be a communal thing with some of the other folks in this hotelcomplex (meaning I have to be social and fuck social)

So I was pretty well prepped to be all HUMBUG for the rest of the day.

Then I find out that DeAnna was plotting something with one of those other folks behind my back and, well.

I has a kittun. And it is d'aww. S'a little grey thing, maybe about two or three weeks old (and me keeping it means it won't get sent to a shelter) and he was basically obtained to fill the void that was left when Pita, my former cat, ran out - something that happened about two months ago now.

I have christened him Whisper (Those who RP with me will recognize the name most likely) and there will be pics as soon as I can get them.

Also, mutt12, thanks for the unexpected offer of charity; you and DeAnna have managed to turn a crappy Christmas even given MY horrible track record (usually this tends to be a crap day because I'm expected to be social and fuck being social; see above) into one of the better days I've had in a while.


EDIT: Blurry pictures! The cat is practically a UFO now! (Bonus: You get to see me and Ariana in that second pic, whereas in the first all you see is kitten, bedsheet, and my hideous work shirt)

Aww, kitten! Also, you have a pink DS too. That makes you awesome.

I'm OVER NINE THOUSAAAAND

and/or I care more about playing the games than how I look playing them XD (totally want to play Crafting Mama but nobody's dumped it yet)

Glad the day turned out well <3

Also Whisper is adorable. Looks like he's already settled in from those pics. It's like 'spot the sleeping fuzzball' XD

I think part of it was stress - it was his first time away from the litter - and part of it was his priorities are bass-ackwards |D

He's taking his time exploring now, and is very much a DON'T PICK ME UPPPPP D8 type of kitten.

Got some good news and some bad news.

Bad News:
My grandma is emotionally blackmailing me because I offered the TV to a friend instead of family and if I don't give it to her, it's going to be impossible to live in the same house with her and come out sane.

Good news:
I got another good TV I can give you. It's a gigantic 32" CRT, but it's damn nice. It's HD, but no HDMI, but rather those red-blue-green component inputs. Only drawback is it's heavier than a bitch.

Sorry to be a damned indian giver.

Never mind. When I drug the behemoth crt out of storage and into the house all by myself, my grandma felt guilty seeing me straining and looking like I'm about to die and pretty much, without my knowledge, went to Wal Mart and bought a 19" LED flatscreen (Vizio Razor) for me to give you. You can have the behemoth CRT hdtv as well if you still want it, though that motherfucker is a bitch to carry.
