too tired to be clever

here is the latest edition to our family. hopefully. if rufus lets us keep him. we have him on loan from my sister in law erin, who has 3 more to give to loving homes. we are giving it a week and if rufus doesn't warm up to him, we will have to give him back.

we brought him home last night. i think rufus is more afraid of him than he is of rufus. rufus is growling and hissing at him but runs away when ever the baby comes up to him.

he has black medium length fur with long white hairs scattered throughout. his eyes are an odd color. not quite yellow but not quite any other color. can't quite figure it out. he is very sweet and curious and already knows how to use the litter box and actually uses the scratching post. he is only 8 weeks old.

his mama is a long haired white cat. his three other siblings were white, some had some splashes of grey. but this little baby was the odd one out. i have a soft spot for black cats. his name is "token" after the movie not another teen movie that has the black guy who is the "token black guy" since every teen movie has that character. so token is the "token black cat." i haven't decided if i will keep that name or not, he came with it. but lincoln likes the name.

i've been home sick from work for the last two days. some kinda stomach bug. feeling better today but now just have a killer headache and could desperately use a nap. will probably just hit the hay extra early tonight. i actually attempted work on wednesday but was "sent home" because i looked miserable. didn't bother going in today. should be fine for a long day tomorrow to catch up.

two women i work with both have kids sick at home with the chicken pox. they use the same daycare/sitter. some other parent sent their sick kid to daycare and pretty much infected the whole bunch. how rude.

i think i am gonna go lay down now.

later.
