The new addition.

Two days ago my girlfriend found out that there were three kittens in her friends yard that appeared to have been abandoned by their mother. She had planned on going Friday to check on the kittens and take them home providing they were in good health and didn't look sick. Overnight one of the kittens had died so we went to her friends house to pick up the kittens. One is grey with a white patch and the other looks like a Mainecoon mix. My girlfriend isn't allowed to have cats at her apartment because her roommate is allergic... and her friend couldn't keep the them... So I now I two super tiny kittens. I was worried originally when my girlfriend said she wanted a cat because in the state that i'm in I don't know if I am stable enough to care for another life form. Now I have two life forms to take care of.

They're cute though... Ones a poof ball. They are both Male and they are named Macha (Poof) and Ash. Last night was a little tough because it was their first night with us and I was worried they may not have made it through the night. Luckily they did. We moved the bed into the spare room (My roommate hasn't moved in yet) and laid with them there. Around Four AM Macha had started crying. He was in a corner of the room and looked afraid. I was up for a couple of hours and then went back to bed. Today I moved everything into my room. They have been exploring the room when i'm not in it.. and generally hiding under my dresser. They are using the bathroom and they aren't meowing as much today. I fed them around 10 this morning and plan on feeding them again around 7. For now im planning on a 12 hour feeding schedule.

Speaking of food... I'm wondering what I should eat today for dinner. I don't have much in the house. I might stop at burger king before I go to pickup my girlfriend tonight. I think my roommate is moving in tomorrow afternoon. He is gonna need help with the bed and computer desk. My girlfriend is working at 4 again tomorrow... So hopefully it all gets done ok. The house is just about together. I have a few things in storage which I still got to pick up. I hung my art work today.. and picked up some suppies for the kitchen and bathroom. I always find that the art helps make the place feel like home... even if its only a year that im going to be living here.

I switched the utilities into my name today.. and I have an appointment for the internet to be installed on the 13th. On the 12th I have a vet exam to make sure the kittens are doing ok and don't have any problems (They were strays after all). I am hoping that within a month I can switch them onto dry food.

Thats about all for now,

A couple of weeks to reset.

Recently, I got a new job. When i went to put in my two weeks at my existing job management indicated that I didn't have to come in and could be discharged early if i wanted. So i said ok. I've had about 2 weeks off by this point and I start my new job on Monday the 28th. I'm looking forward to it.  While I've been off, I've been tending to things around the house and becoming more active. I've been able to go to the gym virtually any time i want... and the wife and I even took up Basketball today. I'm hoping that i can spend this fall / winter / spring getting my physical health in order while at the same time advancing my career. I am also working on Quitting smoking. Today is day 3 of 56 in the program. I'm expecting my sense of smell to improve sometime in the next 24 hours. Usually it kicks in between day 3 and day 5. It usually comes on suddenly and without warning. All of a sudden the smells of the room I'm in are overly amplified. Which can h...

Why I'm no longer on Chantix

 While the medication can be good for some, I noticed a stark difference in my thought patterns after the 5 day mark. I had actually gone as long as nine days on the medication but i found that day 8 did not start with a resolving throwing the pack away and moving on into the future with resolve and courage. In fact, it was quite the opposite. By the end of day 8 I had resolved pretty negatively that I was better off dead. The negative attitude i was developing was interfering with my job, and my marriage. I would honestly advise anyone who has Schizoaffective disorder, Bi-Polar type, to stay clear of Chantix as a smoking cessation medication. About three days after coming off the medication i did notice a shift in thinking in a new direction though. I wouldn't say that it reset my thought patterns, but it actually gave me a new hopes and ideas.  I correlated that my good morning habits in years past wasn't due to not being on the medication or working third shift.... It was a...

The last few days of August.

 This year had basically been chaotic for me. Between Me losing and getting a new job to Katie going out on TDI and quitting her job. The only thing that really stayed constant was the apartment. Nothing wrong with that I suppose.   In Recent developments... I got my teeth and eyes checked out for the first time in about 10 years. I didn't have any cavities (Which pissed off Katie). But I did require a root and scaling procedure. As for My vision.. I could have probably spent 10 dollars on readers rather than going with the prescription... But I at least know why my eyes are as bad as they are. Apparently when I was a kid... I was suppose to wear an eye patch to correct a lazy eye. But it never happened because the doctors back then thought that I needed glasses which I never really ended up wearing. Well... hear I am 30 years later and I need glasses. I'm not bitching about it... I'm just making a general observation. I recently heard about age spurts.. basically at 2 dist...
