Beebee

Beebee is the name of our new cat. We chose that name because we can say “Beebee!” in a very high pitched voice and she recognizes her name already.

Shortly after we got Beebee we started feeding her some wet food we bought and shortly after eating that food, the anal discharge stopped and she started having normal poops. So the liquid that was coming out of her butt must have just been milk or whatever she had drank, we don’t think she had had any solid food before that.

She also had a cut on a leg, but some neosporin took care of that.

We took her to the vet yesterday and the vet guessed that she was about 5 weeks old, which means that she would have not been ready to be taken away from her mom. The poor little thing also had a ton of earmites but the drops the vet gave us should take care of that in no time.

She is already very active and playful. Last night she climbed up on the bed and rubbed herself all over my face and then stuck her claws in my back, so I had to end up putting her outside of the room and closing the door. I felt bad, but she just kept climbing back into the bed in order to play with me, at 3 am.

I’m upset at whoever let her go but at least she has now found a much better home.

We found a lost kitty

Well, not us, but a girl was going around the neighborhood saying that she found a small cat and asking whether it belonged to us. She could not find its owner so we offered to keep it temporarily because she was not going to keep it. Hopefully we can find its owner pretty quickly, otherwise we may get attached to it!

There is a small problem though, there is a slight discharge from its anus, but we can’t find much about it on the Internet and the vet is closed until Monday.

Morning surprise

The doorbell was ringing shortly after 8. I thought it may be the Mormons who have been doing the rounds lately so I looked outside through a window only to see 2 Mexicans and a truck. The doorbell rings again. So I go and answer the door. They are here to redo the roof.

What?!

No one had called me ahead of time to tell me that someone is going to redo the roof. The landlord made a comment about having the roof redone someday but he never gave me any dates. Not just that, we have a satellite dish. Are these two gentlemen satellite installers? Do they know how to take it down without damaging it? And what is just as important - are they going to hook it up again and realign it? I’m guessing that the answer is no. I’m sure I have to call a professional installer to come do that. So not only will I have no TV for several days, but it’s going to cost money. And who is responsible for those charges? Me for choosing to have a dish or the landlord for wanting to redo the roof while we are still living in here?

So I sent them away. Now I’m sure I’ll get a visit from the landlord in the next few days. That is going to be one fun conversation.

Press 1 to oppose gay marriage

There is a company claiming to be a “Christian phone company” and they say that they actively fight gay marriage. They keep calling Eugene Mirman to let him know of this new carrier and instead he has fun with them. Go ahead and listen to the three MP3s he has on his site as they are hilarious.

For example, they claim that MCI sponsors child pornography. The calls have great quotes such as:

Eugene - “Together you and I will destroy the gays”
Agent - “Exactly!”

The calls get progressively funnier and more ridiculous.
