So, I now have nine cats, including a special needs cat with kidney problems. And I've left graduate school, am going to India for a month and am applying to get my license to be an ESL teacher. Things change I guess!

Not cool enough to get a photo into my actual journal page. So will post a picture of Marcus in my regular stuffs.

Things here in Memphis are not that great.

Am teaching a class at the local art college though. Cool, but strange. I'm teaching the "science" class!!

More later. Marcus has discovered the joys of the crinkly ball and the wadded up piece of paper. He's a good pouncer...

There's a Panna-bear in the house! Well, almost. I'm almost back. I will write about my new outdoor kitties soon... they are orange and white and stripy and their names are:
Marcus Aurelius McAnimal
and
Maxwell House McAnimal
*laughs maniacally

There are just too many distractions online. I cannot allow myself to succumb again yet. Maybe after the final move, which takes place at the end of this week. *sigh* Then i will have little social interaction in real life, so I will need Pahnna and such once again. Being unemployed will certainly contribute too!

A very big truck still just barely holds our stuff, our entire material world. We have too much stuff. My husband has too much stuff.

The cats are taking this all fairly well, so far. Fisher is perfectly fine with the disappearance of all that he owns, especially since his bowl and his catnip mouse are still in place. The other two are less sure about what is happening. I will be away from them this week and then I will take the megabus back from Memphis. Then the four of us will live here in emptiness for a month before joining "dad" in Memphis.

The children will not be coming with us.

No one is happy as far as I can tell.

I will post some pics of the new house as soon as I can. It's not fancy but it is huge. That might be a nice change. And maybe I'll settle down and write something worthwhile soon! I was working on something before my computer broke. Maybe it's not total rubbish! We'll see...
