THE GREAT CAMPUS TREK
Alright, so for some reason they stuck Dr. Lu’s class at the opposite end of campus and we have to trek all the way over by the bus loop to get to it.
Not that it’s a long distance by any means—it’s at most .75 miles I think—but as far as getting to a class goes, that’s quite a ways. Especially for students who have to run labs right before Dr. Lu’s class and have to motor to get to class within the 10 minute break (if they even get that much time; I always have students asking me questions after lab).
ANYWAY.
Have another picture of Jasmine (who is now almost exclusively called Jazzy Cat or Jazz). I’m trying to get a good one of her face because it’s so pretty, but I also don’t want to freak her out with the camera. So this is zoomed in on her. Hence the blurriness.
NEWS!
We got a kitty!
This actually happened yesterday, but I needed to rant about Google yesterday and Jasmine (our new kitty) is super, super shy anyway and we haven’t interacted with her much. But she’s the quietest, smallest, sweetest little thing ever! Nate and I were discussing getting a cat after Christmas sometime, but when we saw Jasmine, it was basically instant love.
We got her at a pet store, but the pet store sells rescue animals from the Animal Rescue Foundation of Alberta. Jasmine was rescued from a hoarder home that had a total of 40 cats in it. She’s missing a whole bunch of teeth, but is super sweet and chill. She’s really scared right now, but we expected that, especially since she had to get a few teeth pulled before we could take her home and her mouth is probably very sore. I’ll update y’all with pictures once she gets more comfortable around us and a camera doesn’t scare her.
Edit: holy freaking crap, she’s the loudest purring cat EVER. It’s wonderful.
Edit 2: she loves it when Nate and I sit on the couch together. She jumps up next to him and rolls around while we love her.
Edit 3: these are the best pictures I can take of her right now. She’s not like Annabelle, who would pose for the camera when she saw it.
Whyyyyyyyyyyyy
My big sweet Humane Society cat, Jupiter, got adopted, and I am simultaneously very happy and very sad. I could have never taken her to Calgary (practically no apartments allow pets there), but I wish I could have loved her one more time. I haven’t felt such a connection with a cat in a loooong time. I’m sad I didn’t get to say goodbye, but I’m glad someone else out there will love her.
Gonna go cry now.
Henry David Thoreau, get out of my pool!
Haha, my cat. She just noticed this picture we’ve had sitting on a shelf for over three years. She’s totally staring that kitten down!
Yeah, I have nothing else today. It’s Saturday, people, what do you want from me?!
