UGH!

I have been once again trying to search out new friends and communities. I would love to find the following:
A general BDSM or Femdom community.
A community for people who use coupons
More friends to add to my list.
Maybe a couple of pagan communities that interest me, as well a furry community.

It seems that some of the communities I am on are very QUIET, or people do they hello, I just joined, then nothing more. I hate the fact that if there are ALOT of people with a particular interest, it wont make a list. I know I shouldnt be griping, since I have no way to help make it better. Just makes it hard to meet new and exciting people. :)

Now it is time for this pretty kitty to head to bed. Maybe

The Olymnics make D late for work.

D works 1 mile from home. Normally driving him takes all of 2 minutes, depending on traffic. Today was alittle different. I knew the olympic torch was coming thru town. I even checked the route and timetable. I think they are running alittle bit late. We were waiting at our street to turn onto N Bdwy, and I turned to D to tell him you are going to be late. He was like why? I then pointed out the police and vans right in front of us. They took the normal route we take to drive him to work. The cars were going at a CRAWL. Which was to be expected. I just thought they would be by our place before I had to take him to work. This is the 1st time in 2.5 years that he has been Late to work. (an actual tardy) It took the Olympic Torch to do it. :)

So to commemorate the occasion I bought a SaltLake 2002 Olympic Pennant.

Tai chi

I learned the short 24 move form for free at a local bookstore last year. I have forgotten most of it, and really wanted to relearn. I have found out that the Y has a 12 week course starting on Jan 10th, that I can attend! I just called and signed up, shelling out the $60 bucks. I am so excited. I really enjoyed learning it last year. I have been looking at the programs at the Y for awhile, but the other sessions were at times I couldnt attend.

Next I think I will try and take Pilates. or the Advanced Tai Chi course.

Recap of the day

I feel like I wasted the day away. I was online, doing some coupon trades and talking to friends, while waiting for LJ friends to UPDATE. Not many did today. I also watched some TV. I got to see Trading Spaces. Very Cool Show. I wish I had a friend close enough to get them to come here and do a show. It would be so much FUN. Just as long as my friend totally knew my thoughts on the color GREEN. I have no idea which room I would want them to do. Maybe the living room. Have the cute Handy Andy make some furniture. I was also going to watch the BBC version Changing Rooms, but it was one I had seen already. I did do a couple of productive things. I mailed out some of the bills, and I unpacked all my small partylite candle holders and put them into the buffet we got from my mom that we have now in the Kitchen. I have one more box of candles to unpack and then I am basically done with unpacking. There is another box with knick knacks. They go into the curio cabinets I have that I havent figured out where I want to store them. I basically had a really lazy day. I had a vague feeling most of the day that I was forgeting to do something, but I still have no idea what it could be. I did balance the checkbook. I also got signed up for the Tai Chi class. Today was the first day to do that, and I wanted to get in before it filled up. I guess I thought I had to go out and be somewhere today, but nothing came to mind. Oh well.

Tomorrow I have to work, and I am still trying to decide about going to a cookie party. I think it depends on how I am feeling. I have not been sleeping well at all. Last night I got at most 3 hours of sleep. Most of that being on the recliner out in the living room. Today I should have taken a nap, but never actually got around to doing that either. I dont think my mind wanted to shut off.

Goodnight, sleep tight, dont let the monsters bite.

Kitty Story

The other night R and I were getting ready for bed, and started to give the cats their nightly treats. Only 3 of my 4 cats showed up. That is strange, so we got out of bed and started to look for Serendipity, the missing cat. The 2 kittens are only 15 or so weeks old, but already they know about treats before bed. We wander the house looking for Sere, and still nothing. I turn on the living room light and look down to see the other kitten Strife batting under the recliner. Suddenly I see a paw snake out from under the recliner. Giggling I call to R to come down and look, I found Sere. Slowly I lift up the recliner and out she comes. What had happened is that she went up into the recliner w/o anyone noticing and then Mr Melodie Man(my meanish butthead kitty) effectively blocked her escape by laying directly under the raised foot rest. WE made sure that Melodie wasnt in the way when we lowered the recliner, but didnt check to see if a kitten was up inside. I know Melodie was just laughing his ass off. Sere was fine, she is so tiny that there was plenty of space in there. I know one reason I do nightly treats is so I can check on my kitties. This is the 2nd time one has not come to treats, because they have gotten someplace they shouldnt be. The other time one was in the bathroom closet. We have also had Dustbunnie (the 4th kitty) trapped in the pantry. It was funny seeing her paw come out under the door.

Now time for me to head to bed.
