Today I was cleaning out Thom’s box that he lives in and I gave him some kitten biscuits. When Jasmine heard me pouring the biscuits she came running and stood beside her bowl meowing for me to give her some. I gave her some and continued to clean the box.

I cleaned his litter tray and put new litter in it. Jasmine stopped eating her biscuits and stood by her litter tray and meowed. She wanted me to clean hers (which I was going to do next anyway). So I cleaned hers and she promptly used it.

Later on I caught Jasmine leaning on the cat-scratch stand peering into Thom’s box. As soon as she saw me she ran and jumped inside an empty packing box we had (since we are moving). She sat in there for a while then went to sleep in it. Since Thomas has a box, she has to have one.

Then in the afternoon I gave Thomas a bath and then dried him with my hairdryer and gave him a comb. Jasmine jumped onto my computer desk and stood there expecting a brush. I combed her, which she would usually hate me doing, and purred the whole time. I even gave her a quick blow with the hairdryer and she didn’t even run away.

Tonight tops the cake. We were looking for Jasmine, when I found her crouched right up on the bedside table shelf where Thom likes to hide. She can’t even fit in there, yet here she was sitting in all huddled up.
Because it is “Thom’s shelf” she decided it was now her spot.

The things cat’s do.

Edit: Made a new theme, featuring my fave colours, my fave flower and Thomas, my kitty. I coded it in Firefox yet it looks better in Internet Explorer. It also works in Opera. The sidebar is down the bottom if you’re wondering.

Last night I had what Rose would call a WTF moment.

I was at the late-night store getting some last minute groceries, when my mum called me. She said I have a serious question, and I want you to tell the truth. I was thinking “what is she on about?” then she asked me “Did you and Carl get married? Are you already married and having a baby?”.

WTF? Weird huh? Well apparently 3 people in the last week went up to her and congratulated my mum on her daughters wedding. She thought maybe I had gotten pregnant and had a court registry wedding without telling anyone.

As if I would do that, I want a big wedding with all my family there, and even if I did get married I think I would have told my own mother. I wonder where people got this idea, I have only said I am engaged, I never said I was married.

Eww! What is it with old guys hitting on me. In the last 2 weeks, five older ¹ men have tried to chat me up.

The worst was meeting someone who seemed presumably nice to talk to (and didn’t even look that ² old), and he asked me where I got my “looks from” I answered “umm my mother?!” then he started asking for my number. I said no I don’t give out my number, repeatedly he kept begging “I’m not the kinda guy who will call you at 3am, I just want to take you to a movie or something.
