- I have so much anxiety about if Ned will ever fit in with our cats, and guilt about putting in a room by himself for part of the day. I know it could take months or even a year for the cats to even get along (if ever), but of course, I want it to happen NOW. Khali tolerates him (and he sometimes hisses at her), Starbuck is curious (and he wants to jump on her and chase her), and Apollo absolutely hates him and hisses and growls and yells and hides under the bed (and Ned is like, “hey!”). Ned won’t be staying here if it makes the other three miserable.
- I’m loving this new mani I got last night but the shiny foil parts are already starting to peel off, so womp womp. I will see if they can fix it today.
- People have told me I am too approachable and it’s true. People are asking me for advice and opinions daily in my Instagram DMs (on my rock page). Most of the time I am happy to answer, but sometimes, people are just ODD.
- I had my work review yesterday and it went much better than I thought it would, ha!
- Someone tried to use my credit card to spend +$700 at a gas station last week (huh? on what?) and of course my bank marked it as fraud (nope, I didn’t lose my credit card – no idea how they had my number). So I immediately canceled it and ordered a new card, which came in 3 days, but um, yeah, it was hard not having my credit card for three days so that’s a sign I need to spend less money.
- I was really excited to get my first holiday cup at Starbucks last Friday, and I even tried a coffee drink – the almond milk sugar cookie latte (or whatever it’s called). Steven nailed it when he said it tastes like a gas station cappuccino. I liked it, but probably won’t order it often!

Ugh, I’m sorry that Ned and the cats aren’t getting along. π It’s interesting that the girl cats seem to be okay with him but not Apollo. Wonder if it’s a male dominance thing? That’s gotta be tough for you!
Hooray for a good work review but boo on the credit card. Who spends $700 at a gas station???
I still haven’t gotten my first Starbucks holiday drink of the season. Hopefully tomorrow!
Thanks! I think it might be a male thing. Like, he feels intimidated or like he is being replaced. It’s causing me so much anxiety, Stephany. I hate seeing my cats unhappy because of him. π
That is what I am wondering! LOLOLOL. I want to see the bill!
Did you get it??!?!?!
Oh, man. Sorry to hear that Ned is not fitting in. But you’re right -stressing out the other 3 cats is not the answer!
Also, I want to see your DMs because I know people are weird, but… just what are they asking you? Is it about rocks? Or other things? Because if it’s other things, then…yikes. (People get weirder every year, I’m convinced…)
And I’m LOLing at the description of the Starbucks drink. π
Ha! So they are asking me for advice on rock stuff, but then kind of arguing with me and not believing me when I give it? Or asking for really detailed instructions on things. Again, I am too approachable. This week I stopped responding to people who don’t follow me (and are just looking for info), so that has helped!
Ha! It’s an accurate description! Maybe I will go get one today!
