Life

Well since you last heard from me nothing too exciting has happened. I'm not sure I even have any exciting pictures for you. My friends left (boo!) but at least I got some free time back to be productive (yeah right!). We finally got our TV working (though I can't say we have really even used it) and we got a microwave, so we can now reheat food (not that I'm ever home to cook food in the first place). Clearly you should be jealous of all the exciting happenings.

I had a job interview last week for an engineering job, but its not looking too optimistic at this point. I still have my fingers crossed though. I've been talking with another yacht design company and it looks like if they get a contract they are in discussion about they will need a significant increase in staff. Keeping my hopes up for that and I will start checking back in with a few of the other companies as well. In the meantime I'm still a waitress. The days are exhausting and I am ready to go back to a normal job, but I'm still having fun with it in the meantime.

And now for the juicy gossip....

I hate to tell all of you, but your fears may have come true. I found myself a handsome kiwi boyfriend. I met him back in October and we have been having a blast together. Two weeks ago he adopted two kittens that his brother rescued from an abandoned house and so most of our time together has been spent taking care of them. It took(/is taking) a lot of work to convince them to stop hissing and trying to bite us when we went to touch them. It makes the cute kitten things they do even cuter though. They had really bad eye infections at first so they didn't look too great, but its incredible how much they have filled out and their eyes cleared up in a week. One of them peed on me the other day so I wasn't too happy with that, but they are too cute to be angry at (and i'm not even a cat person).

Okay, well I should stop procrastinating on my homework and get back to work, but before I go I'll leave you with some cute kitten pictures!

The day after they were rescued. They weren't looking too hot. At the time the fact that they were sitting in someone's lap was HUGE.

A week later. Look how cute they are!!!
